Wondering what a PopStroke adventure is like? We went ahead and checked it out for you. Here is our quick guide to the PopStroke Minigolf Mecca in Sarasota, Florida.
PopStroke Sarasota – Our Quick Guide
These Tiger Woods-designed 18-hole Putt-Putt courses are located at 195 University Town Center Drive in Sarasota, Florida. PopStroke in Sarasota offers a unique dining, eating, and putting experience for beginners to the most avid golfers. PopStroke can provide you with a two-way putter, or you are welcome to bring your own. However, fun is the main objective here, not so much practice. The TaylorMade golf ball you are given is also yours to keep! There is an option for an all-day pass that allows you to play as many times throughout the day as you would like. Being that there are TWO 18-hole courses, this makes it worth it. So, if you need more than a morning session to get your fix, you can always POP back over and play the other 18-hole course.
Large Groups, Food Delivered on the course, great atmosphere
PopStroke may give you the feel of an authentic golf atmosphere and course, but the truth is the fun is all that matters. Unlike a golf course, you can play together in larger groups. Several groups of 5 or more walked together, and we had seven ourselves. Dining inside is an option, but we took advantage of the app, allowing you to order food and drinks and have them delivered on the course. We were a big fan of the wings, FYI! We also noticed many people who came to PopStroke to enjoy dining on the large patios without bothering to golf. This area also includes a large playground for kids, an outdoor gaming area with bags, ping pong, and a giant viewing screen above the facility.
As mentioned previously, PopStroke features TWO 18-Hole Putt-putt courses. Tiger Black and Tiger Red. The Tiger Black course is what they call the beginner’s course. This course is flatter, has fewer obstacles, and is easier to maneuver throughout. The Tiger Red course, many golf fans will understand the naming, is more complex. Many obstacles and elevation changes will greet you on this course. Although the pictures may look like sand, they are all the same artificial turf. The effect, however, adds a fun element to the holes.
Our trip was a success for us and our visiting family. The food was excellent. Everyone had fun, and the experience is unlike any other putt-putt experience. Truly unique, and we would recommend a visit to anyone. PopStroke is also accommodating for our hot summers here in Sarasota by having coolers filled with ice-cold towels so you can beat the heat.
