Drive 495

Drive 495, located at 495 Broadway, is a New York City gym that is designed for golfers. The $3 million complex is two stories and 15,000-square feet of golfing gadgets and personal trainers that are designed to get golfers into perfect shape - for golf. You can work on your swing and improve your condition, as well as your technique. Founded by two brothers, one of the selling points of the concept is that the injury rate among amateur golfers is around 60% - a number that should drop significantly with good conditioning.
