LAUNCH PARTY
Indian Wells prepares to unveil its all-new
Shots in the Night experience on October 18
T
he wait is nearly over,
and this month one of
the most anticipated
new amenities at In-
dian Wells Golf Resort will
open to the public.
Following an invitation-only
grand opening event October
17, Shots in the Night will offi-
cially open the following
evening, and it's sure to become
a favorite activity for seasoned
golfers and non-golfers alike.
Some may describe it as a
night-time golf amusement
park, but really it can only be
described after experiencing it.
There will be giant inflatable
targets on the driving range
that blink when hit, computer-
generated laser putting games
and a heavy emphasis on
unique food, drinks, music
and excitement.
"I am extremely excited for
Shots in the Night to open, as I
have been working hard mak-
ing sure this new venture is a
total success," said Matt
Balesteri, the resort's PGA Di-
rector of Night Golf. "There is
really nothing like this in the
desert – it gives golfers, hotel
guests and families something
fun to do when the sun sets."
Games on the driving range
include closest to the pin,
around the world, H.O.R.S.E.,
21 and more. On the putting
green, players will enjoy the
nine-hole challenge, corn hole
and shuffleboard, among other
competitions.
"My favorite game, and one
that I find most golfers enjoy as
well, is the nine-hole chal-
lenge," Balesteri said. "The
game is very interactive, and
with different levels of diffi-
culty the game becomes fair for
new golfers playing against sea-
soned golfers. The second most
popular game is darts, because
the dart board looks amazing
on the green. This game gives
you the freedom to play and
start from wherever you want."
