Said to be the world’s only NFL-themed golf club, its driving range features a 60-yard-long Cowboys playing field complete with uprights and "game-used AT&T Stadium turf." Nearby, an 18-hole putting course offers Cowboys-blue links—and the clubhouse showcases Super Bowl trophies, Tom Landry’s hat, and other team mementos.
The companies will develop golf workouts, performance training, and on-course strategy sessions—produced at Arcis Golf clubs—that will be available on iFIT's mobile platform and mobile devices, as well as on iFIT-enabled machines including NordicTrack, ProForm, and Freemotion.
As part of her collaboration with Arcis Golf, Lilia Vu will wear the Arcis logo on her sleeve and make special appearances at Arcis Golf member and community events. The World #1 grew up playing at an Arcis club in Southern California—where her father still works as a golf pro.
The clubs in Las Vegas, Scottsdale, Arizona, and Rancho Santa Margarita, California, all feature stunning views and vistas, adding to what Arcis Founder and CEO Blake Walker calls his "irreplaceable portfolio" of almost 70 golf clubs—the second-most in the U.S. after only fellow Dallas company Invited.
Arcis' founder and CEO, Blake Walker, has been called "the Jeff Bezos of the golf industry" for starting his company in 2013 when golf was in a deep decline, betting big on the comeback that has happened since, and adding new features, tech, and attractions.
Last month Arcis acquired four Phil Mickelson golf properties in Arizona; in early September it purchased The Golf Club at Twin Creeks in Allen, Texas. With Gentle Creek, it now has 66 golf properties under management, including 21 in Texas and 12 in Dallas-Fort Worth.
