New features, enhanced user experience and graphics create remarkably true-to-life experience
(TRAVERSE CITY, MI) – Dancin’ Dogg Golf – maker of the award-winning OptiShot Infrared Simulator, the ultimate in-home virtual golf system – will premiere its next generation software package at Booth 1273 during the 2013 PGA Merchandise Show, January 24-26 in Orlando, FL.
Highlighted by a completely redesigned user interface and enhanced graphics for an even more true-to-life experience, this latest system evolution includes a broad range of features that promote skills development. Standard with all new purchases and available via a free, automatic download for current users, it includes a pin-point practice range, adjustable course physics, additional game types and complete in-system translation to six languages.
“From the beginning, we’ve been dedicated to creating a revolutionary product that makes in-home golf accessible for all golfers, regardless of skill level,” says Brandon Theophilus, CEO of Dancin’ Dogg Golf. “These exciting new features further distinguish OptiShot from competing in-home simulators and ensure that users can play more golf, have fun and improve their game from the comfort of home.”
A sleek new design, easier-to-read data, improved navigation, variety of putting modes, custom display options and the ability to preview premium courses have also been added to the system.
OptiShot connects with Windows computers via a plug-and-play interface and requires only 8-½ feet of swing space. With their own clubs, up to four players per round can compete by hitting real balls, foam balls (provided) or no ball at all. Infrared sensors on a durable swing pad precisely record club-head speed, face angle, swing path, distance, tempo, face contact and ball flight. In addition to Core courses that come with the system, OptiShot users can practice on a realistic driving range, compete using the par-3 option or purchase premium course replicas of world famous layouts.
