March 7, 2013

Twitter Facebook Email

Pinehurst, NC (February 27, 2012) – Global Sports Brands (GSB) lead by Matt Molloy, a 20-year industry veteran, announced today that GSB and NewSpin Golf LLC, the makers of the SwingSmart, have signed a global distribution agreement to help market, sell, fulfill and manage a wide array of other services on behalf of the SwingSmart. All distribution operations for the SwingSmart will be managed out of GSB’s 14,000 sq. ft. facility in the Pinehurst, North Carolina area.

The SwingSmart by NewSpin Golf, the leading provider of Bluetooth enabled swing analyzers, instantly sends your swing data to a smartphone or tablet. The data includes swing speed, face angle, angle of attack, and tempo. Additionally, the SwingSmart also displays a 360 degree 3D rendering of your swing that shows swing plane, swing path, detail of face angle, and shaft lean for both the full swing and putting.

A first-of-its-kind solution, users simply clip the small (less than 1 oz.) Bluetooth-enabled SwingSmart sensor module ($249.99) to any golf-club shaft in your bag and the device wirelessly communicates with a free app for iPad, iPhone, or iPod devices. The Droid version will be available in by late-March. SwingSmart was recently honored by GOLF Magazine as the “Best App for Instant Feedback,” and rated the leading product in its class by My Golf Spy. The SwingSmart system is endorsed by world renowned instructor and CBS TV analyst Peter Kostis, who provides a series of in-app instructional videos that help players optimize their unique swings and best utilize the data they get from their SwingSmart. Peter also hosted a TV campaign that is being aired daily on The Golf Channel with incredible success.

The SwingSmart is being used by top teaching instructors nationwide and students everywhere. The SwingSmart gives instructors and students the tools to communicate seamlessly to ensure that students are staying on track and seeing constant improvement. The SwingSmart is truly the next revolution in swing analysis technology at an affordable price.

A few key sales territories still open. For inquires please contact Steve Sacks at 619-977-1112.
