Practice Facilities
Firethorn has one of the premier practice facilities in Nebraska. It features a grass range tee measuring over 100 yards wide. Dedicated greens and targets provide the proper feedback for your practice and help keep you focused! Separately positioned chipping and putting greens enable you to keep your short game dialed in. The Performance Center is a heated Indoor-to-Outdoor facility that allows you to practice all winter long and see your ball flight in the air.
