How Are We Different From Our Competition?

The golf driving range entertainment industry was launched by TopGolf, a national chain with proven results. With a proven demand for golf entertainment facilities, we see demand exceeding supply and thus room in the market for competition. We have studied our competition and have found a number of core areas that can be improved upon in the industry. GolfSuites is dedicated to providing a more golf-centric approach, offering all of what the competitors offer, but with more features catering to golf enthusiasts. This includes our professional golf academy offering all levels of instruction which is led by Golf Pro Kyle Morris, real top-grade golf balls and Doppler-based ball tracking, just to name a few. And with GolfSuites, investors have the opportunity to take ownership of their own piece of this growing and exciting new market segment.

GolfSuites is IN DEMAND


In most of the country, the outdoor golfing season is limited, leaving much of the year without play. Even in the best climates, wet conditions, heat and lack of daylight can limit play. Long time commitments and high costs are also among the contributing factors to the closure of traditional courses even as interest in playing golf is on the rise.***

***Source: IBIS World, Indoor Sports Facilities Management Industry in the U.S., Industry Market Research Report, February 2018

For example, non-golfers who expressed an interest in playing grew from 8 million in 2013 to 15 million in 2017, according to the National Golf Foundation.

GolfSuites is working to capitalize on these trends with the added convenience of participating at any skill level, for as little as an hour.

At GolfSuites centers, you will be able to play, take lessons or join a competition, rain or shine and even at night. From kids just starting out, to professional level players, we will welcome guests of all skill levels and ages.

THE GOLFSUITES INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY

Today, we are presenting the opportunity to invest in GolfSuites in up to a $50 million Reg A offering. In addition to participating in the potential increase in the price of our stock, we are paying a dividend at the annual rate of 8%, paid monthly.* For many investors, the dividends may be tax-free for several years.**

*Since the tax treatment of any distributions may vary according to the financial performance of the company, as well as the particular circumstances of the investor, investors should consult their own tax advisers, and should not assume that the distributions will be subject to the same tax treatment from year to year. GolfSuites will not generate revenues or profits until the company has built facilities, and there is no guarantee that those facilities will be profitable. The company will set aside a capital reserve as investments are received; dividend payments will initially be made from this reserve. There can be no guarantee of future profits.
 
**During the early years it is likely that dividend payments will be tax-free due to favorable real estate depreciation tax rules combined with the likely treatment of dividends as a tax-free return of capital to investors and thereafter as capital gains income for a limited period. The dividend will only be payable to the extent there are legally available funds. GolfSuites does not offer tax advice. Investors should consult their own tax adviser for information regarding their own tax situations.

Of the 14.7 million non-golfers in 2018 who say they would like to play golf, 31% are women and 62% are under age 35, according to the National Golf Foundation, Golf Industry Report in April 2019.

Standing Out on the Course


At GolfSuites, you can expect architect-inspired driving ranges (275-300+ yards) and putting courses, including “true green sites,” short game areas and simulated hazard designs. Our launch monitor technology aims to measure and track balls and club data within inches of targets, rather than yards, using authentic premium golf balls that perform at the highest level of feel and distance.

From lessons to meals, parties to competitions, Golfsuites will be a welcoming playground for golfers of all skill levels and ages.

State-of-the-Art Golf Academy


A crown jewel and differentiator of GolfSuites, the Golf Academy will be where guests can improve their overall skills as well as their capability to practice with purpose. The Golf Academies, will be designed by our PGA professional and NBC Golf Academy Lead Coach, GolfSuites’ Co-Founder, Kyle Morris, with an eye toward advanced training and coaching techniques for avid players and players of all levels.

All of the GolfSuites facilities will be able to host school sports and other teams to practice and compete.

Our goal is that guests will be able to see continuous improvement in swing, on-course strategy and ability to enhance overall scores.

Investor Mike on January 14
Is there any opportunity to invest in common shares? I think this is a great idea and would like to take on more risk for the opportunity to realize a higher return in the long run.

HP on December 04
Thank you for your prompt reply. No exceptions can be made if I want to invest $XXXXX in the parent company, but don't quite meet the requirements for an 'accredited investor'? There's a huge discrepancy in PPS in Reg D vs Reg A+ and as an investor the investment in KGEM seems more attractive. If GolfSuites 1 is an success, KGEM will also be succesfull, but KGEM can still be successful w/o GolfSuites 1 being profitable if GolfSuites 2 or 3 or 6 are yielding large profits in the future. Hope to hear from you soon!

JERRY ELLENBURG - CHAIRMAN / CEO on December 04
Hi HP. Unfortunately it is not possible for us to make an exception and allow any unaccredited investors to invest in the Reg D for the parent company, KGEM. The SEC regulations simply do not allow exceptions in a Reg D 506C offering, which is the form of the offering here.

Clayton Beasley on November 24
Do you have any thought of expanding into the South East ? If so, how far into the future ?

JERRY ELLENBURG - CHAIRMAN / CEO on November 26
Absolutely we are. We are awaiting an answer from the SEC on our qualification on that zone.

Dedrick on November 24
How many shares are being offered

JERRY ELLENBURG - CHAIRMAN / CEO on November 26
We have been qualified to raise a total of $50M on this platform, and the current price is $5.10 per share. The total count is around 10M but a little less due to the price increases in shares.

Allan on November 11
Hello! I am a new investor in Golf Suites 1. I would like to know if I may invest subsequent stock funds after my inital investment? I was unable to find information pertaining to it. Thanks!

JERRY ELLENBURG - CHAIRMAN / CEO on November 15
Hi Allan, yes you can! Feel free to sign up for any additional shares on this offering page.

JERRY ELLENBURG - CHAIRMAN / CEO on November 06
We recently got an email with two great questions. Here they are with the answers. 1) The first was a concern on the investment only being 8% over time, and in our opinion, the size of the investment is of little consequence. What should matter is “how does my investment perform for me?” This opportunity has a direct return of 8% yearly, paid 1/12th in cash each month. A $600 investment pays $48 per year and that comes to $4 per month. The rate of return is 8%, materially higher than a bank interest rate and mostly tax free. But, on top of that there is the possibility of growth, given that our company develops and operates multiple facilities. 2) If share prices rise and I want to sell, there is no option at this time, is that correct? Our company is not involved in share resale. But we do know there are secondary markets in which you may be able to sell shares later on. I can’t advise on resale of shares, but there companies to which you can get referred that can help you on this.
