  <itunes:subtitle>How do you introduce an ocean of "non-golfers" to a sport with a reputation of being elitist and intimidating? Indian Wells Golf Resort General Manager Steve Rosen stepped outside the golf industry box and took an entrepreneurial approach to solving the problem. Listen in as Steve describes how they transformed the under-utilized elements of their golf resort to  create an immersive, multi-sensory experience called Shots In The Night.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>"I often get frustrated going to the different conferences, talking to people about what’s wrong with golf and how to grow the game. The problem is they start thinking like golfers and can’t get out of their own way." 
Rather than just talk about the problem of how to deliver a more engaging golf experience that appeals to a wider audience, Steve Rosen - who is the General Manager of Indian Wells Golf Resort (https://www.indianwellsgolfresort.com/) - did something about it. And that something is the immersive, multi-sensory experience they call "Shots In The Night".

What is Shots In The Night?
Indian Wells Golf Resort - a 36 hole golf property with a 53,000 sq. ft. clubhouse - is owned by the City of Indian Wells and operated by Troon Golf (https://www.troon.com/about-troon/). Troon realized that to create additional value they had to become more entrepreneurial and deliver a different golf experience that would appeal to a different customer. After Steve Rosen met Nextlinks founder Dave Shultz in 2016, he realized they had found their technology partner that could deliver an unexpected, compelling, gamified and fun golf experience that first time golfers right up to professional level players would love. 
Lights, music, laser projections, lit targets, glow in the dark golf balls, food trucks and drinks overlayed on both the existing putting green and 12 hitting bay driving range are the mix of ingredients that successfully create Shots In The Night.
