Outdoor sports are great, until the weather isn’t. Whether there’s a storm blowing through, a heat wave or a cold spell – or if you just don’t feel like chasing down golf balls – consider popping over to The Bogey Brothers and practicing your swing in the comfort of a controlled climate and in the presence of good company. The Bogey Brothers is a family-owned and operated entertainment venue with multi-sport simulators, perfect for avid golf fans or those interested in picking up a club and taking a swing at it.

Located at 2646 NC-87 in Cameron, in a 4000 sq. ft. building, The Bogey Brothers houses four simulator bays and a full bar serving drinks and snacks. Beyond just golf, the simulator bays, powered by Full Swing, allow guests to play a number of games like soccer, football, baseball, lacrosse, tic-tac-toe, connect four and more. One of the favorite features of the simulator bays is the ability to track stats like ball speed, club head speed, club face angle and spin rate. The simulators are available to book by the half-hour or hour, with all equipment provided, though guests are welcome to bring their own clubs or bats…
