Summary
If you live in the northeast you know that we are getting closer and closer to simulator szn. It's basically here for us cold-weathered people and that means the attention turns to indoor golf options so I thought it made sense to chat a little with a man who started a company to make simulator work easier for the consumer.
Carl (The Carl behind Carl's Place) chatted about the business, the Covid boom for his business, and what makes a good simulator room.
A huge thanks to Carl for the time!
