A Day in the Life

A typical day as a Driving Range Attendant begins with opening the range — inspecting the facility, setting up equipment, and ensuring the hitting stations and range area are clean, safe, and fully stocked with golf balls. You'll greet guests warmly, check them in using the computerized POS system, collect fees, and book tee times or lessons as requested. Throughout your shift, you'll collect and clean range balls using a ball picker or cart, restock ball dispensers, and address any guest questions or concerns with professionalism and a smile. You'll operate a golf cart and maintenance vehicles to move around the property efficiently, and perform light custodial and maintenance duties to keep the facility in pristine condition. At the end of your shift, you'll balance the cash register, reconcile collected payments, and complete a bank deposit in accordance with department cash handling procedures — wrapping up the day knowing you've delivered a top-tier experience to every guest who visited the range.
