Launch monitor for golf shows golfers what they’re really doing in their swing
ORLANDO, FL (June 11, 2010) – “It blows a lot of people minds on how accurate this machine is when reading their mistakes and results,” said Joe Kwok, owner of Joe Kwok Golf Shop, when asked if he has used a FlightScope® on the golf course to measure a golfer’s REAL swing; and that’s just one of many major advantages FlightScope® has on all of its competitors, the ability to take it anywhere on the golf course because the FlightScope® Prime is the world’s first-ever wireless launch monitor for golf.
“I take it out on the course and get real numbers from shots during a round – our players love it,” said Derek Ingram, a Canadian PGA Professional and Golf Canada’s National Women’s Team Coach. “It has great battery life and is light, and non intrusive – players have no idea it is even there. Then they want the data – so we can fine tune every aspect of their game.”
Non-intrusive is another great feature. FlightScope® can be setup anywhere a golfer is hitting and they don’t even know it’s there, so they don’t tighten up or alter their swings. In fact, earlier this year, FlightScope® was used to measure the swings of golfers at the Dubai World Championships.
