Construction on The Hartman Golf Practice Facility, made possible by a lead gift from Wichitan Wink Hartman and several additional donors, began Monday at Braeburn Golf Course on the campus of Wichita State University, Director of Athletics Eric Sexton announced.
The 1,700-square-foot facility, which is scheduled for completion in January, features four all-weather hitting bays that will be equipped with a state-of-the-art video swing analysis system which will provide a breakdown of each student-athlete’s swing. The facility will also include a synthetic putting and chipping surface and two retractable bay doors opening up to the Braeburn Driving Range.
