Like their human counterparts, golf-ball dimples signify a fun-loving spirit and the cheerful willingness to be used as trebuchet ammunition. Showcase smiling cosmonauts with today’s Groupon to Golf NYC's Flushing Meadows Golf Center in Queens. Choose between the following options:

Flushing Meadows Golf Center’s turf-padded miniature fairways careen through 18 holes on a course suitable for all ages and skill levels. Putter-jockeys herd brightly hued charges around waterfalls, streams, tears in the space-time continuum, and other opulent ball-beckoning obstacles while noshing on the included concessions. The course welcomes play during daytime hours and is also fully lit to accommodate nighttime golfing and games of Pin the Tail on Arnold Palmer. The course offers free parking and is also easily accessible by public transit, making insubordinate ostrich caddies a thing of the past.
