New Orleans-area indoor golf: Metairie TrackMan rentals and Audubon swing instruction
For a virtual round, Drew Laborde Indoor Golf offers public TrackMan bay reservations in nearby Metairie. For coached swing work inside New Orleans, Goff Academy describes a Foresight GCQuad indoor swing room at Audubon Park Golf Course. A practice-and-play rental and an instructional appointment are different products, not competing hourly social-bay quotes.
Official operator and operator-linked booking pages checked October 17, 2026. Metairie is not New Orleans proper. Drew Laborde's pricing table and FAQ disagree about some closing times and leave the Monday–Thursday 2–3 PM rate transition unclear. Goff Academy's custom-fitting section is labeled Coming Soon despite broader introductory fitting language.
Drew Laborde Indoor Golf Facility
Nearby Metairie — 1509 Metairie Road for indoor practice/play; the academy is next door, not New Orleans proper
The operator lists two TrackMan bays for one to four golfers each. Published public rates are $40 per bay per hour in non-peak windows, $50 Monday–Thursday 3–8 PM, and $60 Friday from 3 PM and all day Saturday–Sunday. The linked booking page corroborates a Saturday $60 one-hour product with fifty-five minutes of play. The operator adds ten-percent sales tax and requires card payment. Bring clubs: rentals are not offered. Confirm disputed closing times and the unclear weekday afternoon transition in the booking.
New Orleans — Audubon Park Golf Course, 6500 Magazine Street
Goff Academy offers instructor-led simulator analysis in an indoor swing room with video and a Foresight GCQuad launch monitor. Its booking path is a lesson inquiry, alongside separately described on-course instruction, not a verified self-service hourly bay rental. No dependable public simulator rental rate was established. The dedicated custom-club-fitting section is marked Coming Soon, so confirm that service rather than assuming the opening paragraph establishes a currently bookable fitting.

Indoor golf in New Orleans: FAQ
Is Drew Laborde Indoor Golf inside New Orleans?
No. The operator locates the practice/play facility at 1509 Metairie Road in Metairie, with the academy next door. It is a nearby alternative, not New Orleans city inventory.
What does a Saturday bay cost at Drew Laborde?
The operator lists $60 per bay per hour on Saturday, with one to four golfers sharing the bay, and says ten-percent sales tax is added. The linked one-hour booking product specifies fifty-five minutes of play.
Can I rent clubs or pay cash at Drew Laborde's indoor facility?
No. Its FAQ asks golfers to bring their own clubs because rental clubs are unavailable, and requires credit or debit card payment even for a walk-in.
Which Drew Laborde schedule details should I verify?
Its rates table and FAQ show different closing times, and Monday–Thursday non-peak hours end at 2 PM while peak hours begin at 3 PM. Ask about that transition and use the actual booking calendar for the selected session.
Does Goff Academy offer an ordinary public hourly simulator rental?
The checked page establishes indoor simulator analysis and instruction using Foresight GCQuad and video, with lesson inquiries through its contact form. It does not establish a dependable standalone public hourly rental or rental price.
Is custom club fitting definitely available at Goff Academy?
Do not assume so. Although introductory text mentions fittings, the dedicated custom-club-fitting section is labeled Coming Soon. Contact the academy to confirm that particular service; indoor swing instruction is described separately.
