Vector and Vector Pro Integration Drives Fitting Solutions
AccuSport International, Inc. today announced a new association with Swing Labs and the Swing Labs Fitting System. Under the terms of the agreement, the Swing Labs Fitting System will be marketed to AccuSport’s installed client base of thousands of Vector and Vector Pro Launch Monitor accounts.
AccuSport is the leading developer and marketer of golf swing launch monitors and its Vector Launch System platform is recognized throughout the golf industry for its accuracy, portability and affordability. The Vector and Vector Pro Launch Systems measure and analyze launch angle, ball speed, backspin, side spin and side angle to instantaneously quantify the performance of both player and equipment. The Vector Pro also now offers a fully integrated video swing analysis application for lessons, along with a student database for storing sessions.
"AccuSport has really reached critical mass in the golf industry with regards to the number of Vector and Vector Pro Launch Systems in the market," said Mark DiMare, President of Swing Labs. "They have a great client base of industry professionals who utilize their Vector and Vector Pro devices for their businesses. Swing Labs is pleased to establish a relationship with AccuSport that will offer a genuine fitting solution to these industry professionals that will further enhance the equipment fitting experience of the golf consumer," DiMare stated.
The Swing Labs Fitting System is a web based club-fitting application that contains a tested database of thousands of heads and shafts. Golfers hit balls and their performance data is captured by either the Vector or Vector Pro and fed into the Swing Labs System for processing. Fitters and customers are then presented various options for the best clubs for that particular customer based on their ball performance.
"We’ve been working with Swing Labs for the past few months testing their system and integrating our data feed into their software," said Don Thorup, President of AccuSport. "The Swing Labs system is very simple to use and offers branding opportunities for our retailers and fitters. Our large installed client base of launch monitor accounts will be very interested in having another tool and value point associated with their Vector or Vector Pro purchase."
AccuSport is set to begin roll-out activities to its client based immediately. "We’ll have the Swing Labs system running in several locations at the PGA Show so that our customers in attendance can easily see the value in the system," Thorup stated. "This venue will provide our clients with the opportunity to see and test the system in a hands-on environment."
