Scottsdale, Arizona – June 6, 2008 Golf GPS is one of the fastest growing market segments in golf, making GolfLogix GPS one of the hottest Father’s Day gifts this year. GolfLogix GPS-8 was introduced in March 2008 and provides golfers with distances to the center, front and back of greens as well as major hazards and lay-ups on more than 18,000 golf courses worldwide. GolfLogix has taken GPS rangefinders to the next level with the system’s increased memory capacity-now able to hold up to 20 courses at a time-last shot distance and auto recognition of the course being played along with Garmin’s high-sensitivity GPS receiver technology.
“Golf GPS is the perfect gift for the longtime golfer who truly does have everything,” said Pete Charleston, President, GolfLogix, Inc. “It would be difficult to select a new set of clubs or bag as a gift but a GPS device is a great gift. It can help the golfer improve his game, who wouldn’t want that for a golf gift?!” The simplicity of the device, merely turn it on and the distances are continually displayed, makes it popular with all age golfers. In addition, GolfLogix remains the only system on the market that is 100% waterproof and comes with an unprecedented 12-month warranty.
Gary McCord, Champion’s Tour Player and lead CBS Analyst along with Peter Kostis, a top 20 instructor and CBS Sports Broadcaster are both representatives of GolfLogix. “With GolfLogix you don’t have to push any buttons, toggle a joystick, or aim at the flags. Just turn it on and never touch it again,” says Gary McCord. “What I like is that you don’t need to estimate distances especially while trying to recover from errant shots. GolfLogix lets you manage your game better,” added Peter Kostis.
GolfLogix GPS-8 began shipping in March 2008 and retails for $299.95 which includes one FREE golf course download.
