PONTE VEDRA, FL. – October 26, 2015, Power Tee®, the World Leader in Golf Range Automation, a company that has automated over 50% of the driving ranges in the United Kingdom which includes some of the most exclusive practice facilities in the world like St. Andrews, the Belfry, and Wentworth Club, proudly announces that its Power Tee installation at the Hunley Golf Club has dramatically increased their driving range sales.
According to Power Tee CEO Martin Wyeth, “Power Tee was developed to help golfers practice more effectively but the real byproduct is that the Power Tee automated teeing system is FUN to hit off. So golfers hit more golf balls and driving ranges sell more golf balls which equates to the sales growth at Hunley’s Driving Range.”
The Hunley Golf Club is a golf resort associated with the modern and friendly Hunley Hotel perfectly situated overlooking the beautiful North Yorkshire coast and just miles away from the seaside town of Saltburn-by-the-Sea.
“It took us a few years to be persuaded to install Power Tee but now that they are in and working so successfully, we wish we had taken the plunge sooner,” stated Hunley Golf Club Director of Golf, Richard Weeks. “Our driving range sales are up nearly 80% month on month and they are continuing to grow as more people are enjoying the experience.”
The Power Tee automated teeing system elevates any and all practice facilities as it combines the finest synthetic hitting mats which prevent jarring with a teeing system with multiple tee heights which not only improves a golfer’s swing but transforms an ordinary driving range to an extraordinary driving range.
Instructors appreciate the “Automatic” instruction as they don’t have to constantly correct the grip, stance, or alignment. Students swing away and get better – FASTER.
