CUPERTINO, CA (March 12, 2008) – Never-Search, Inc. creators of the most comprehensive array of golf course information ever assembled was recently featured in the Wall Street Journal’s Weekend Journal Sports section in the Saturday/Sunday, March 8 – 9 edition. The newspaper highlighted the Never-Search for Golf™ Personal Edition travel map which includes all 18,475 golf courses in the nation with detailed information on each, along with driving ranges, golf stores and 9,000 golf instructors; all accurately mapped. The map can be used to easily and effortlessly plan golf trips for business and leisure, and includes other locations that are of interest to travelers such as airports, lodging, coffee shops and restaurants.
According to Wall Street Journal columnist, John Paul Newport, “Never-Search for Golf, provides essential information about virtually every course, driving range and retail golf shop in the country. Since it loads onto your hard drive and displays its data superimposed over a scalable street map, it would be a great companion during those last few minutes of a flight, if the crew weren’t so insistent about making you turn off your laptop.”
“For anyone who likes to mix golf with travel, the main advantage of Never-Search over other programs is the ease with which you can see at a glance the courses and ranges close to a given location,” continuedNewport. “The estimable Golf Digest Places to Play site, for instance, is great for identifying top courses in an area but requires several mouse clicks to call up a map view for each. Never-Search presents information at several levels, from simple flags identifying courses as public or private to full pop-up listings that include price, ratings where available, contact information and hyperlinks to Web sites.”
With this program, travel plans can be saved, and re-opened later to fill-in other trip details. This interactive planning tool also provides users with collaborative features. It allows users to provide feedback to Never-Search directly from the map. Locations can be adjusted, information can be updated, and “cool” intriguing and favorite places can be added, giving visitors to the area “insider information” on the best places to go while in town.
All the data that appears on the map is downloaded and updated from the Never-Search.com Internet site. Golf course information includes type of course, number of holes, par, yardage, slope, rating, greens fee range, course designer, ratings, driving range availability, and much more. Contact information includes phone numbers and website links. This fully featured travel map performs routing, provides driving directions, and when connected to any commonly available PC-USB GPS receiver (“G-Mouse”), shows where you are on the map as you’re traveling.
Never-Search offers a free 30-day trial for users. All data is updateable from the Never-Search.com website and is available in personal or business editions.
