“We are excited to offer one lucky winner these once-in-a-lifetime prizes,” said Harry Jung, president of GolfBuddy. “I can’t think of a better way to launch the GolfBuddy World, than by giving away a golf trip to Hawaii. It will be an excellent chance to utilize the GolfBuddy World while playing on one of the most picturesque and challenging golf courses in the world.”
The GolfBuddy World is the next generation, easy-to-use GPS rangefinder with a high resolution, color touch screen. The World has the capacity to hold 40,000 courses in its memory, and comes preloaded with more than 32,000 courses worldwide. Like all GolfBuddy products, the World is fully operational right out of the box and doesn’t have any subscription charges or extra download fees.
The GolfBuddy World displays a full layout view of each hole plus an overhead view from the tee box to the green. By using the innovative Touch Point Technology, one touch of the screen provides an instant yardage reading from the ball to the green.
Additionally, the user can zoom-in to the green and adjust the pin placement to an exact position on the green. The display features the actual shape of the green, allowing the golfer to calculate exact yardage on approach shots and resulting in greater confidence and precision.
The GolfBuddy World is priced at $299.99 and is available for purchase at a golf retailer near you. For more information on GolfBuddy, please visit www.GPSGolfBuddy.com.
