Prestigious honor adds to growing list of accolades for golf’s #1 performance tracking system
(STAMFORD, CT) – Arccos Golf – maker of the game’s only GPS + Live Shot Tracking + Tour Analytics platform – announces its flagship Arccos Golf system has been named Best Game Analyzer by Golf Digest as part of the magazine’s 2016 Editors’ Choice Awards.
This latest honor highlights Arccos’ unmatched ability to help golfers play better and have more fun by tracking and analyzing their on-course performance. Arccos ($299.99) automatically delivers info on distances hit, club averages, driving accuracy, greens in regulation, sand saves, putts and more. It also offers personalized course management via GPS 2.0, which shows GPS distances to every point on more than 35,000 courses and provides a GPS map of each shot you hit.
“Receiving this award further validates our mission of providing players with a simple, fun and unobtrusive method for tracking their performance,” says Arccos CEO Sal Syed. “With the upcoming launch of our system for Android, we’ll be even better positioned to expand the growing legion of players who realize the benefits of unlocking their golf DNA.”
Arccos’ Tour Analytics platform was developed in conjunction with golf’s most renowned statistician, Peter Sanders. Drawing from his work with PGA Tour star Zach Johnson and many others, it automatically breaks down a players’ handicap into five key components – driving, approach, chipping, sand game and putting – helping golfers:
– Gain insight into what every shot means
– Understand exactly how each part of their game contributes to scoring
– Explore comparative data in each of the five components from golfers with the same handicap
– Evaluate patterns across their entire golf history, supporting refinement of on-course tactics
Endorsed by 2014 FedExCup Champion Billy Horschel and two-time World Long Drive Champion Jamie Sadlowski, Arccos features 14 virtually weightless sensors, which easily attach to the end of a club grip and pair via Bluetooth to the company’s free app. Unlike competitors, Arccos does not require alterations to pre-shot routines, tapping additional devices, or other hindrances to enjoyment and improvement.
Also part of Arccos’ portfolio of innovative products is Arccos Driver ($79.99), a new performance tracking and live competition system that delivers real-time data for tee shot distances, fairways hit and more. The single-sensor automatically detects each drive, then uses a player’s smart phone to record second shot position. Other features include personalized challenges based on performance history, and daily, weekly and monthly leaderboards.
Led by a team of Ivy League engineers, rocket scientists, PhD’s and designers, Arccos Golf is named after a function of advanced mathematics.
