Seven Hampton Courses in Florida and Georgia to Sport ProLink GPS Systems
(CHANDLER, Ariz.) – ProLink Solutions – a wholly-owned subsidiary of ProLink Holdings Corp. (OTC BB: PLKH.OB) and the world’s leading provider of Global Positioning Satellite ("GPS") golf course management systems and on-course advertising – announced today that it has been selected over all competitors to install the ProLink system at seven properties within the prestigious Hampton Golf Clubs portfolio.
Based in Jacksonville, Fla., and run by golf industry legend M.G. Orender, Hampton Golf Clubs manages a collection of the Southeast’s most outstanding public, private and semi-private courses for parent company LandMar Group. ProLink’s industry-leading GPS system will enhance both the game and course management at Grand Haven Golf Club (Palm Coast, Fla.), the Grand Club (Palm Coast, Fla.), the Golf Club at North Hampton (Fernandina Beach, Fla.), the Golf Club at South Hampton (St. Augustine, Fla.), the Golf Club at Osprey Cove (St. Mary’s, Ga.), Southern Hills Plantation Club (Brooksville, Fla.) and the Golf Club at River Hall (Ft. Myers, Fla.).
"Our clubs provide the finest amenities both on and off the course, and our decision to install ProLink GPS supports Hampton Golf Clubs’ commitment to the finest guest experience in the golf industry," says Orender. "ProLink is clearly the best GPS tool available as evidenced by the company’s rapid worldwide growth and dominant market position. We evaluated ProLink’s value proposition, and we agree that we will realize multiple revenue lifts and advertising profits by utilizing their marketing and media systems in conjunction with ours. We are genuinely excited about this new partnership and look forward to growing our relationship with ProLink Solutions."
Hampton Golf properties have claimed numerous awards from national publications such as Golfweek and highlight the work of legendary course architects Pete Dye, Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Gary Player and Mark McCumber. River Hall was created by PGA TOUR star and up-and-coming designer Davis Love III. The courses are famed for their natural beauty, pristine conditions, superlative service and first-class clubhouse facilities.
Says Lawrence D. Bain, CEO of ProLink Solutions: "It is a pleasure to be associated with a gentleman of M.G. Orender’s stature and with Hampton Golf Clubs, which represent the epitome of golf, service and lifestyle. We believe the clubs’ members will appreciate the game-enhancing benefits of ProLink GPS while Hampton Golf will realize an outstanding return on its investment. This partnership further validates our system as a must-have for golf facilities seeking to offer a premium player experience and maximize profitability."
Orender is a past President of the PGA of America, a PGA Golf Professional Hall of Fame inductee and one of the game’s most respected figures.
Hampton’s properties join a roster of renowned courses featuring ProLink GPS, including 2006 Ryder Cup host the K Club (Ireland), 2003 Presidents Cup site Fancourt Hotel and Country Club Estate (South Africa), the Resort Course at La Cantera in San Antonio, home of the PGA TOUR’s Valero Texas Open, and world-class destinations including the Four Seasons Resort Aviara (California), Four Seasons Golf Club Resort at Terre Blanche (France) and Kapalua Resort (Hawaii).
ProLink has produced outstanding results on numerous fronts in 2007. During the first quarter, the company installed, updated or renewed existing leases for its system at 56 courses worldwide. The company also secured more than $1 million in advertising commitments from brands including Citibank, General Motors and Toyota during quarter one, while signing a letter of intent to acquire its largest distributor, European-based Elumina Iberica.
