?Hands-free,? fully integrated system beneficial for teaching pros, golf course owners
COLUMBUS, Neb. – PortaPro Video is taking golf instruction to the next level with the most advanced video system on the market. With the recent innovations in broadcast quality cameras and direct video burning PortaPro Video is setting a new standard in video technology specifically for golf. The “hands free” system is mounted on the golf cart. It has programmable logic controls and a direct drive digital video recorder which allows lessons to be recorded onto a DVD and given to the student after the lesson is over.
“PortaPro Video was developed with the teaching professional in mind,” said Mikol Hess, President PortaPro Video. “Unlike other video products on the market, the PortaPro Video is equipped with both audio and video capabilities and is seamless for the instructor — no hassling with tripods, setting up cameras and it never holds up play. Its unique proximity sensor system starts recording only when the brake lock is engaged and stops recording when the cart begins to move.”
PortaPro Video is fully integrated into the golf cart and records a full frame shot from up to 12-15 foot away. The system allows the teaching professional to observe, analyze and interact with a student’s swing during a playing lesson and can also be used in traditional teaching settings of driving ranges and practice greens.
“As a PGA instructor, I’m always on the lookout for training aids that will benefit my students. Simplicity is the key and that is what I like about PortaPro Video,” said Ben Alexander, Award-Winning PGA Teacher at the Poppy Hills Golf Course in Pebble Beach, Calif. “Video has been available to teaching pros for a long time, but until now there has not been anything that allows you to record a lesson and then with a simple push of a button on the cart burn it directly to a DVD. At the end of the lesson, the instructor can review what was covered that day and what the golfer needs to work on between lessons. It’s all on the DVD that they can take with them. This is definitely something that teaching pros will want to add to their teaching arsenal.”
PortaPro Video is also designed to increase revenues and provide a premium value added service for golf courses and resorts. With PortaPro Video golfers will be able to document their most memorable moments and capture themselves playing some of their favorite courses from the first tee through the 18th green without ever holding up play.
“The system includes real time audio and dramatic full color digital video which records not only the golfer but the surrounding beauty of the landscapes,” said Hess. “With PortaPro Video you’ll be able to share your experiences instead of just telling your friends how great it was.”
Now, the excitement and fun involved in your weekend rounds, tournaments or special getaways can be lasting memories with PortaPro Video.
