With over 54 golf courses in and around Pinellas County—most of them private and closing after dark—sudden rains and heat often disrupt plans for 18 holes. Enter Golfology, an indoor golf simulator lounge celebrating its official ribbon-cutting ceremony on November 8, from 2 to 3 p.m., followed by a grand opening celebration on November 9 at 2400 5th Ave S, St. Pete.
After the ribbon-cutting, Golfology will host a soft opening for friends, family, and VIPs, featuring six Trackman simulators, a putting and chipping green, and food and drinks delivered by neighboring Bayboro Brewing.

Owned by Rob and Tamara King, Golfology combines passion with purpose. As an 8-year Army veteran, Rob highlights how golf became an invaluable outlet post-service: “Resilience is a big part of golf, a skill I brought from the military.” Rob and Tamara plan to offer military discounts and perks soon, along with leagues and possible coaching from local PGA pros.
Here’s some information for golf fans
Golfology’s six simulator bays, each about 350 square feet, are equipped with Trackman simulators. These high-tech simulators use radars, lasers, and cameras to provide accurate feedback, making it easy to fine-tune every detail of your swing. With a choice of 299 courses worldwide and new courses added monthly, players can enjoy iconic settings right from St. Pete.
At Golfology, there’s no risk of bad shots sending you into the brush, no heat stroke, and no alligators lurking on the fairway. Plus, you can order food and drinks, delivered straight from Bayboro Brewing next door—no waiting for the drink cart. Double bonus.
Golfology’s grand opening promises to kick off in style with a block party. Follow Golfology on Instagram, and check with I Love the Burg for updates on the official opening date.
