Introducing the all new aG CURVE from aboutGolf

Winter Golf Is Here

Things are finally gearing up for the winter in the "off season golf world"  All of us bubble golfers hope that mother nature behaves this year and gives us a turn.  Last year when it was 70 degrees and sunny in January it was a little tough to justify playing golf indoors.  Despite the mild winter we were surprised that there were so many people playing indoors.  Throughout our facilities in the northeast the attendance wasn't as bad as we thought it would be.  We found that it came down to the accuracy of the tracking technology in the simulators that helped keep the screens turned on.  The local golf pros were indoors giving lessons, the evening leagues were at full capacity and the daytime crowd was consistent.  While we never intend to compete with the green grass it was good to see that even though the courses were open and our simulators were at an acceptable capacity.  It comes down to having the right tracking technology under the hood and actual 3-D terrain to play in the simulators that keeps people coming back every year even when they can be outdoors.
On the residential end, the installation calendar is quite full and we are doing our best to get all our anxious customers installed by the holidays.  Below you will see some photos of our most recent simulators during installation.

We are very excited for whats coming in the next year and the innovation that aboutGolf and the aG development team is working on.  As a technology company that creates everything that they put in the field it's always nice to see that they are working on the next best thing to keep our customers  and partners excited for what's to come.  

Happy Holidays!!!

Good People, Great Products and aboutGolf Technology - FootJoy National Sales Meeting

This past week was the FootJoy National Sales Meeting in Newport, R.I., which featured an impressive display of new products, industry updates and, of course, networking with colleagues and friends – a great group of people who couldn’t be more passionate about the products they produce and represent.  

Throughout the week, we had the opportunity to see the latest shoes, gloves and apparel from FootJoy, as well as what the company has coming down the pipeline.  Along with their standard sales meetings, presentations and breakout sessions, FootJoy Product Development/R&D Department, based out of Brockton, Mass., wanted to show what has been working in the “Shoe Box,” a state-of-the-art research and development testing facility.

FootJoy’s Shoe Box Testing Facility Brockton, Mass.

Within the Shoe Box facility are some if the industry’s greatest technologies, including an aboutGolf PGA TOUR Widescreen Simulator, complete with weight-transfer analysis technology, 3D modelling, aG Flix video capture, and much more. Utilizing aboutGolf’s technology, FootJoy is conducting extensive research on future golf shoes and capturing detailed information on how the golf shoe plays an enormous roll on the score card, as observed through the golf swing.

With their facility tucked in the FJ R&D center many of their sales representatives throughout the world aren’t able to see what the organization is working on or how  research affects the product development. So, FootJoy decided to bring its research to Newport – including our PGA TOUR Simulators.

Some results comparing spike-less and spiked golf shoes

aboutGolf and my company, EverGreens Golf, were happy to work with FootJoy to install two aboutGolf PGA TOUR Simulators and allow the company to demonstrate current research first-hand, as well as allow the sales force to compare different shoes within the FootJoy line. One specific aspect of research that was highlighted was a comparison between the new spikeless and traditional spiked golf shoe. It was great to see the sales agents in the aboutGolf PGA TOUR Simulators hitting a couple shots wearing each of the shoe types, experiencing for themselves  the results as related to stability, control and distances. It was also a nice way to break up the meetings and have the people who represent the FootJoy line actually hits balls to see the results through their golf swings, rather than just look at stats

It has been a pleasure working with the team at FootJoy R&D for the past year and look forward to the future and seeing what they come up with next. I also want to thank them for their hospitality this week in Newport, a perfect setting with great weather.

Our PGA TOUR Simulators are employed by clients and golf enthusiasts for an array of reasons, from strictly entertainment to golf game improvement.

Pease Golf Course is attracting more golfers than ever to their 27-hole course at Pease International Tradeport in Portsmouth after building a new $2.3 million clubhouse last year. (COURTESY) Pease Golf Course had a banner year after completing a $2.3 million clubhouse. Until this season, the Pease clubhouse was closed three months out of the year, but now it’s open year-round. Gretyl Macalaster Scott Devito, PGA general manager at Pease Golf Course, demonstrates the new PGA TOUR simulators added during the $2.3 million clubhouse project completed last year. Revenues from simulator rentals doubled expected projections in the first year. gretyl macalaster photos

PORTSMOUTH — Rebuilding the clubhouse at Pease Golf Course last year not only saved the area’s oldest links, but revitalized them.

The previous clubhouse had little to offer golfers after a round and was closed three months of the year.

The $2.3 million clubhouse project completed in April 2010 offers everything the last building lacked, including a year-round restaurant with a full bar and full menu, a self-contained function room, an expanded pro shop and a modern feel.
