CUPERTINO, CA (June 10, 2008) – Never-Search, Inc. creators of the most comprehensive array of golf course information ever assembled has announced that its patented Never-Search for Golf™ travel and trip planning software is now available in a new 1.06 version. This powerful knowledge-based mapping technology includes new features and performance enhancements to make updating and navigating the vast golf related content and other points of interest fast and effortless.
One of the main new features of version 1.06 is that it is fully compatible with the Windows Vista operating system.

Another unique new feature allows users to link to a google map aerial view of the golf course when they right-click on the link on the map so they can see the actual course image. Other changes include the addition of over 11,000 coffee shops and over 500 KOA Kampground and 80 Camping World locations in the U.S. and Canada, an update of Never-Search’s golf course data and a listing and link to all courses participating in the Golf Galaxy Amateur Golf Tour.
“The unique new features we’ve incorporated into this software give travelers valuable tools for locating and finding information about golf courses and travel destinations,” said Keith Kreft, President, Never-Search, Inc. “Our mapping system is so accurate, travelers can plan their trips and routes more efficiently, resulting in less driving and less gas consumption. And these days, that’s an essential factor in trip planning.”
Never-Search for Golf offers a robust software application that includes every street in the U.S. and Canada, and when connected to the Internet, it acts as a virtual website to plan trips, make reservations, and save locations and notes on places you’re planning to visit. You can then view your travel plans, routes and all other points of interest on your laptop while traveling unconnected from the Internet. Add a GPS receiver mouse and turn your laptop into a navigation system to follow your route with ease. All points of interest locations are mapped with unparalleled accuracy and are easily updated from the Never-Search website. Clicking on any flag on the map opens an information box displaying a profile of the location.
The Never-Search for Golf travel and trip planning software includes all golf courses in the nation with detailed information on each, along with driving ranges, golf stores and 9,000 golf instructors; all accurately mapped. Golf course information includes type of course, number of holes, par, yardage, slope and rating, greens fee range, course designer, Golf Digest ratings, driving range availability, and more. Contact information includes phone numbers and website links. 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, restaurants, RV parks, and campgrounds.
Users can download a free trial version of the product or order a trial DVD if they prefer that installation method. The download runs in the background so you can continue to do other work on your personal computer while waiting for it to finish. The program is transmitted in segments, so if it is interrupted, the downloaded segments are saved. The download can then be restarted at any time from a Never-Search desktop icon and the download will resume where it left off.
Once a user has registered and downloaded the latest travel data, the software works with or without an Internet connection. The purchase price includes free updates of all the data for one year.
