Golf?

Any places in the LA or Orange County are where my sons can golf and also rent clubs?

Los Angeles and Orange County offer a variety of golf options where your sons can play and rent clubs, ranging from public courses to driving ranges and family-friendly golf centers. Depending on whether you are looking for full courses or more casual experiences, there are several good options.

Public and Family-Friendly Golf Courses:

  • Griffith Park Golf Courses (Los Angeles): Includes Wilson & Harding Golf Courses. Both are public and offer club rentals. Good for beginners and intermediate players, with scenic views of the city.
  • Los Verdes Golf Course (Palos Verdes): Public course with club rentals, known for its ocean views. Slightly more challenging, but suitable for teens learning the game.
  • Mulligan Family Fun Golf (Orange County, near Anaheim): Mini-golf and driving range options with club rentals. Great for a fun, casual experience if they are newer golfers.
  • Angeles National Golf Club (Sunland): Public course with rentals available, beginner-friendly options, and lessons if needed.

Driving Ranges and Practice Facilities:

  • Woodley Lakes Golf Course & Driving Range (Van Nuys): Offers rental clubs and a large driving range, perfect for practice or casual play.
  • Aliso Viejo Golf Center (Orange County): Driving range with club rentals and junior programs. Good for honing skills without playing a full course.
  • Westchester Golf Driving Range (Los Angeles): Convenient, with rentals and lessons available.

Tips:

  • Call ahead to confirm club rental availability and sizes for teens.
  • If your sons are beginners, starting at a driving range or family-friendly course can be less intimidating than a full 18-hole course.
  • Consider booking a short lesson at the course or range; many facilities offer 30–60 minute sessions for teens to get comfortable with their swing.
  • Arrive early to avoid peak crowds, especially on weekends.

Overall, both Los Angeles and Orange County provide flexible options, from scenic full courses to casual driving ranges and mini-golf, ensuring that your sons can enjoy golfing while having access to rental clubs and suitable facilities for their skill level.
