EZEE GOLF – The EZeeGolf Power Club was developed to assist everyone, particularly the physically limited, to be able to enjoy the golf experience. The self-propelled EZeeGolf Power Club requires no swing to hit a golf ball from 50 up to 225 yards, including fades or draws, and represents the only path back to golfing for many forced to quit due to some form of physical limitation. The goal is to help make the golfing experience accessible and inclusive for everyone and in turn help grow the game.

VOICE CADDIE is an affordable, portable and accurate launch monitor that you can put in your golf bag and use anywhere you hit balls. Carry distance, swing speed, ball speed are all vital to the game of golf and most golfers don’t have any idea their own stats. The problem is until now, the only way to get those stats was to use machines that could cost $25,000 in indoor facilities. That has changed. The Swing Caddie SC200 is affordable to the regular golfer.
