Representatives of BigShots Aggieland and the City of Bryan breaking ground on April 7, 2021, at the future location of BigShots Aggieland in Travis Bryan Midtown Park.
Jim and Allyson Butler partnered with BigShots to bring the “eatertainment” facility to Bryan. Butler says it’s been a vision of theirs since the similar concept, Topgolf, was created.
The popularity of the venue and the community that we have, the opportunity to use a venue like this for fundraising and to support all the educational entities in this area,” said Butler.

Butler says although they expect Texas A&M University and Blinn College students to enjoy the facility, their vision is family oriented.
Our model is that young couple that has children that can come and play on our putt-putt course while the adults maybe have an adult beverage before they have time to go out and hit golf balls,” said Butler.
Representatives from BigShots Aggieland and the City of Bryan came together for a symbolic “first drive” exploding golf balls.
Butler says he envisions family gatherings, birthday parties, and fundraising events.
We want to have philanthropists in the community saying we used this venue to raise more money than we ever raised in the past,” said Butler.
