The device which gives golfers the distances to the green, layups and major hazards is welcomed by both experienced and novice golfers. Introduced in spring of 2008, GolfLogix is most noted for its simplicity, ease-of-use, durability and accuracy. The Company has successfully captured the demographic of golfers that are interested in pure, simple, automated GPS distance information on an easy-to read screen. The free trial offer debuted on the GolfLogix 30-minute infomercial which first aired on The Golf Channel on March 14th. The program will continue throughout the month of March.
“We are making this offer because we have found that once golfers use our device, they don’t want to play without it,” says Scott Lambrecht, CEO, GolfLogix, Inc. “While our competitors are falling all over themselves to come up with the latest feature, we continue to focus on giving golfers a simple, easy way of getting distances from anywhere on the course. You just turn on our device and you never have to touch it again; it even automatically advances to the next hole! Our customers aren’t interested in flipping through menus or trying to see a cartoon image of the hole on a two-inch screen. They want to experience golf the way it was meant to be played,” states Lambrecht.
GolfLogix GPS-8’s simplicity is shared by Gary McCord, the company’s spokesperson. “With GolfLogix you don’t have to push any buttons, toggle a joystick, or select from menus. Just look at the distance, select your club, and take your shot. This is what golf GPS is supposed to be about,” says Gary McCord Champion’s Tour Player and lead CBS Analyst. “GolfLogix helps your golf game; it doesn’t get in the way.” McCord is featured in the GolfLogix 30-minute infomercial.
