Philadelphia, PA, USA (March 8, 2016) – Golf Genius Software announced a “Free Pairings” pricing policy for group golf trips of up to 40 golfers playing up to 24 rounds of golf. Previously, the company charged a low fee of $49 to provide the best possible pairings related to “buddy golf trips”.
The announcement was made by Dr. Michael Zisman, founder and CEO of Golf Genius Software, who said, “The elimination of this $49 fee was made possible by the success of our core business of providing tournament management software to private clubs, public courses and resorts. Our business has grown to the point where we can provide basic pairings at no charge.” The company charges $249 for a complete trip planning system – pairings, tournament management, group accounting, trip books and other features.
Golf Genius Software has become the leader in creating pairings for “golf buddy trips.” The Company’s technology ensures that everyone plays with everyone about the same number of times. “This has been a challenging problem for anyone responsible for organizing such trips,” Zisman said. He noted that for a group of 12 golfers playing 6 rounds of golf (the most common “golf buddy trip”), the number of possible schedules for placing 12 golfers into three foursomes over six rounds of golf is 8,000 times a trillion! Finding the best possible schedule is a very complex mathematical problem first solved in 2009 by Dr. Zisman, who holds a Ph.D. in Operations Research and is a recognized pioneer in the field of e-mail technology.
Golf Genius Software has helped thousands of trip captains manage their trips, and for many, it has done this year after year in a quick and easy step-by-step process. Golf trip captains can now access www.golfgenius.com, click on a link for free pairings, and enter the number of golfers, number of rounds, and player email addresses. In a few moments, a spreadsheet will be e-mailed with the best possible pairings. Private clubs and resorts that subscribe to Golf Genius have free access to the trip planning software to assist members in planning trips.
According to Dr. Zisman, golf is becoming more and more “technology enabled.” While other industries have quickly gravitated to technology, the golf industry has been relatively late in using technology to make the game more enjoyable. Golf scheduling software is only one of the many features developed by Golf Genius Software. Since 2009, it has invested several million dollars designing software to serve PGA professionals by reducing workloads, creating efficient methods of registration and payment processing, building event-specific websites, providing live scoring at golf events, and generating incremental revenue for club and course operators. The Company’s software is used at clubs and courses from the U.S. and Canada to U.A.E. to Australia as it works to grow the game and make golf enjoyable.
