I've seen food trucks. Flower trucks. Kitchen utensil sharpening trucks. Library book trucks. Art class trucks. Commuter pass trucks. I never really thought of golf lesson trucks, but it doesn't seem like that crazy an idea to me.

It has a Trackman, video, although I don't know how they do face on video. It looks like that's an A/C unit?

The instructional per hour rate is pretty steep, but it is San Francisco and COLA, plus it does come to you.

Our Why

Professional-level golf simulator (like Trackman), equipment, and coaching can be expensive and difficult to access. Golf is an amazing sport that goes beyond hand-eye coordination and teaches us about patience, composure, confidence, and sportsmanship. We believe golf should be more accessible to the world.

Our Mission

Our mission is to lower the barrier to entry to learn golf and give anyone access to the best golf simulator technology (like Trackman), equipment, coaching, and data - anytime, anywhere.

Our Vision

Our vision is a future where tens of thousands of Dryveboxes are mobilized around the world, offering a wide variety of high-quality golf simulator and entertainment experiences.

Do they play the same music the Ice Cream Truck plays?

Clearly, I'm not the target audience for this product. Getting old sucks. 

I'm watching it saying (out loud no less) "Damned it, can you stop with the quick cuts?! Hold the camera still? Would you just show the inside of the truck? Geez, get a haircut you damned hippie! ... Get off my lawn!!"

I've been following this company casually and it seems it's doing well, it's trying to raise money to expand. It was in New York and I missed it. If I hear where it'll show up around here, will try and pay it a visit. Still wondering how it does face on video though. Looks like it just doesn't. Maybe you could put a window on one of the sides.

So according to this piece, the idea came about because wife would not let hubby build a simulator at home so he said let's make a mobile one and park it outside, lol.

This piece was published early August and this was the size of the fleet:

  Quote

There aren’t enough Dryveboxes to make that happen, but Yang, Hutt and their third business partner, Mike Leong, are busy building out a fleet. To date, they have four mobile simulators roaming the country. Six more are soon to be set loose. Yang envisions blanketing the domestic market, then launching the concept overseas.

Dryvebox mobile golf simulators can be booked for lessons or outings. But they also could prove to be powerful vehicles for growing the game.

There is hope for you!   I too was a curmudgeon,  but I saw the light.   I don't know which light but now I'm a reformed curmudgeon! 

I don't see this working in SE Michigan.  There are too many golf courses and indoor simulators available at a reasonable price.

That would be a cold trackman setup in my neck of the woods now.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By iacas · Posted

      Day 254 - 2025-06-11 Planned power outage (that I only found about after the power was out), so while I waited for the Coke delivery… got some practice in. It was dark-ish, but I could see enough in the mirror.

      I've been on a good stretch recently, 4 birdies on Friday, 4 today.  Friday didn't change anything, but today I got 17 (short par-4), but more importantly I got 12, a long uphill par-4 that I didn't birdie last year, and maybe not the year before either.

      Rules Story Thread

      By DaveP043 · Posted

      As I've mentioned (ad nauseum) before, I volunteer as a Rules Official a good bit, including a number of junior events.  On Monday we were at a course that had had about 2 inches of rain the previous day, so a number of bunkers had standing (temporary) water in them.  Not every player was impacted, but I suggested that a whole lot of them should review 16.1c.  It would have a lot more impact, be more memorable, now that they saw the conditions that the rules address.  We all learn the rules one little bit at a time.

      Ball Lost in the Rough

      By DaveP043 · Posted

      This one is pretty logical to me, once you accept the premise that you play your ball form the tee into the hole.  If you don't find your ball, if you don't KNOW where it is, then you play another stroke form the last place where you DID know where it was.  But the rules allow the committee (the course, or whoever organizes the competition) to define specific areas which allow a bit of a reprieve from that requirement.  If you can be pretty dang sure (virtually certain) that your ball is in one of those special areas, you get more lenient treatment.  You don't get that more lenient treatment everywhere on the course, only on those special areas defined under the rules or by the Committee. For those who are interested in a better understanding of the rules, I highly recommend getting a copy of "The Principles behind the Rules of Golf".  It's not quite current with the rules, but its an excellent outline of much of the reasoning that has gone into them.  Its really cheap, you can get it here: Principles Behind The Rules of Golf: Paperback (effective through 2018 to 2019) USGA Members, please sign in to receive your Member discount: Sign In This 72-page booklet is an update to the original version of The Principles Behind The Rules of Golf, according to the current rules book and interpretations.

      Or stomped it into the ground in anger. 👍😁👍               ..... In truth, I thought his reaction was a bit unwarranted. I mean plenty of people have thrown things at me on the golf course, but that's usually after riding around for 18 holes with me. 🤣
