SkyGolf, with its growing portfolio of innovative electronic (“e-golf”) products, is the only company in golf positioned to deliver game improvement solutions across the entire spectrum of e-golf products during practice, play, lessons and fittings both at the course or at home. Each product now enjoys simple wireless connectivity via an App to collect and store critical performance data in its SkyGolf 360 Cloud Service and make it available instantly to the golfer, instructor or friends.
SkyGolf’s product portfolio represents the industry’s broadest and most complete array of e-golf technology to include:
• A family of SkyCaddie® rangefinders in multiple formats and price points that are pre-loaded and ready-to-play with SkyGolf’s worldwide library of high-precision courses.
• SkyGolf’s new Real-time Game Tracking Solution in two formats including a rangefinder watch with both swing detection for automated performance tracking and RFID sensors to support optional SmartTags.
• The award-winning SkyPro®, golf’s most powerful and accurate swing sensor for game improvement on the practice range, the office or at home.
• SwingLabs® Un-biased, Performance-based Club Fitting System.
• SkyTrak, A Personal Launch Monitor that makes golf simulation for practice, course play and gamification at home affordable for most golfers for the first time.
At the center of all SkyGolf e-golf products is its new SkyGolf 360 architecture providing unmatched wireless connectivity for golfers to upload performance data captured during use of each portfolio product to the SkyGolf 360 Cloud where access to such information for analysis, tracking and sharing via social networks is available immediately via a companion App running on smartphones and tablets, or via a PC.
The SkyGolf family of products includes a complete line up of rangefinders for improvement on the course with choices of format, size and price points to accommodate the preferences of any golfer. Products being featured at the PGA Show include:
• The SkyCaddie SR1 handheld, golf’s smallest and lightest way to measure distances, is ideal for the golfer who prefers a compact, lightweight handheld with the simplicity of a GPS watch.
• The SkyCaddie LINX GT Tour Edition Watch, a GPS rangefinder watch that includes sensors to automatically track the location and distance of each shot from tee to green. The LINX GT is also offered in a GameTracker Edition with optional SmartTags. Also, the LINX GT stays synchronized with the SkyCaddie Mobile GPS app on your smartphone to provide a full graphic display of the entire golf hole in stunning graphic detail instantly when more information is needed.
• The SkyCaddie SW2 Watch, a thinner and lighter version of its original bestselling SkyCaddie Watch, now with extended battery life.
• The SkyCaddie TOUCH, Tour Edition, is a handheld rangefinder with a glove-friendly color touchscreen for those that want a full-featured rangefinder with graphical views of the golf holes and the most-effective stroke-saving features to lower scores.
Each SkyCaddie pairs via Bluetooth with a companion App to be compatible with the SkyGolf 360 Cloud Service to eliminate cables. All rangefinders are preloaded with SkyCaddie’s worldwide library of error-corrected golf courses to deliver unmatched accuracy and reliability. Only SkyGolf® walks every course with professional survey-grade equipment to create the most complete and most reliable course maps in the game.
The SkyCaddie LINX GT GameTracker Watch is an exciting innovation in both the GPS watch category and the on-course performance tracking category. The LINX GT differentiates SkyGolf from its competition by combining the best GPS watch, the best game tracker and best App into one harmonious solution. This is an example of producing hybrid products from the individual products in SkyGolf’s large but compatible e-golf portfolio to create more opportunities for golfers to play better by leveraging the latest in technology.
SkyTrak is a revolutionary development in launch monitor technology, offering a complete practice, play and entertainment system for golf at home. It delivers commercial quality ball flight simulations that reflect a golfer’s actual performance for game improvement and entertainment at a price far below alternatives. Golfers can also experience and test their skills with their own clubs at their own pace on thousands of courses to include some of the world’s most famous 18-hole courses through integrations with very popular golf simulator providers such as WGT Golf, Jack Nicklaus Perfect Golf, The Golf Club Game and TruGolf. Many new features and improvements will be ready for demonstration at Booth #1301.
In summary, SkyGolf’s commitment to innovation has created the largest portfolio of game improvement and performance tracking products in golf to help golfers play better, play smarter and have more fun! And each product is built around a single platform, SkyGolf 360, to allow golfers to keep all performance data regardless of whether it comes from a rangefinder, a swing sensor, a performance tracker or a launch monitor in one place rather than scattered among various competitors with incompatible platforms. A single platform is not only to the golfer’s advantage, but it is also to the advantage of a teacher, PGA Professional or reseller to be able to offer all available tools a golfer can need to improve their performance from one source with the confidence their customers are getting the very best solution. Also, SkyGolf 360 is now available to our commercial accounts who can use it to stay engaged with their students and members to find opportunities to offer their help and services as needed.
