Adding Houston makes five Puttery venues in development across the country.

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Drive Shack Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE:DS), a leading owner and operator of golf-related leisure and entertainment businesses, today announced it will bring Puttery, its newest competitive socializing and entertainment golf experience, to Houston’s Rice Military neighborhood.

Located in Sawyer Yards, one of Houston’s hottest arts and entertainment districts, Puttery’s two-story, 23,000-square-foot venue will feature an adults-only scene with four nine-hole putting courses, multiple bars and rotating DJs.

“This year has been instrumental for Drive Shack Inc.’s growth as we introduce Puttery to our second Texas market and our fifth market nationwide,” Drive Shack Inc. President and Chief Executive Officer Hana Khouri said. “Houston is one of the fastest-growing metro areas in the country, so it made perfect sense to bring this exciting new take on competitive socializing to one of the market’s most popular destinations.”

A modern spin on putting, Puttery combines a lively, vibrant atmosphere with state-of-the-art auto-scoring technology and themed courses for an immersive guest experience.
