Introducing GAME GOLF

GAME GOLF gives you a revolutionary way to track shot performance. Shot by shot, it records all your stats so you can visualize your game like never before, whether you’re on your way to break 80 or just actively working on your game. The GAME GOLF platform can help you reach your next milestone.
GAME GOLF allows you to track your game with pinpoint accuracy. With over 32,000 courses to choose from, GAME GOLF allows you to:
• Review your rounds and game stats quickly on your personal dashboard
• Benchmark your game stats against others in various scoring ranges to see strengths and weaknesses.
• Use club performance data to know how far you really hit your clubs and eliminate distance gaps between clubs
• See shot dispersion and tendencies, by club and by distance, off the tee and on approach
• Share posted rounds with friends, family and your instructor, coach or PGA Professional by email or social media tools.
• Compete in virtual Challenges with your friends and other GAME GOLFers around the world
Playing golf should be exactly that—playing. With GAME GOLF, game tracking happens in the background, so you can focus on playing instead of note-taking. It records each shot and collects your stats to tell how you did on every hole. GAME GOLF logs what club you use and where on the course you use it. By combining these observations, your game is visualized like never before.
SeeAttack every round with your best and GAME GOLF will analyze it. From tee to green, you’ll get an advanced view of your stats, fairway accuracy, scrambling percentages, and shot dispersion for all clubs and yardages. You’ll learn the insights you need to progress.
Each and every game you play becomes a showcase you can share with anyone you choose. From that huge drive on hole 14 to your average stats over time, your golf game is no longer limited to the people you play with. Your progress and accomplishments can be shared with your friends, family, PGA Professional, Coach—as well as a whole new community on the GAME platform—for fun, learning or for bragging rights.
If practice makes progress, informed practice makes perfect. Mathematical trends over time in all statistical areas are carefully calculated and presented in ways that can educate, not just illustrate. Benchmark to the index you want to be and know exactly what you need to get there. See how you stack up against others by viewing side-by-side comparisons online.

GAMEGOLF uses GPS technology and NFC technology to track your location on the course and every club used during a round. The GAME GOLF Tags are assigned to specific clubs by the golfer upon activation. The golfer wears the device on the waist and before each swing, “tags” the butt end of the club, where the tag is located, to the device. This registers the shot. Every shot will be recorded on each hole played during a round. At the end of play, the golfer syncs the device to a computer, where GAME GOLF displays the rounds on a map for post round review. Golfers will see total score, fairway accuracy, greens-in-regulation, approach shot accuracy, scramble percentage, sand saves, putts and average club distances.
About the StartupDescribe your product in 3 words.
Game Tracking System
Where did you get the inspiration for your product?
(GAME GOLF was created and founded by John McGuire, CEO and Founder of Active Mind technology) I have been an entrepreneur for the past 15 years, with a background in software engineering as well as in the field of behavioral psychology. I was fascinated by the mental side of performance (as it relates to sport) and with my dual background, developed the idea for a sports-speciic wearable-tech and software that helps you improve your game by understanding your game – and the psychology that goes with it.
What differentiates your product from similar products out there?
GAME GOLF created a new category that did not previously exist; wearable technology as it relates to sport had really been confined to the general fitness space. We launched in 2014 and since then, have continued to evolve the product and the features/benefits that go with it so we are always innovating and leading the golf wearable category. Specifically, GAME GOLF integrates seamlessly with a golfers game; it does not require a smart phone and can be used in tournament play. You will continue to see new technology and innovative thinking as it relates to GAME GOLF on an ongoing basis.
Tell us about the best and most challenging parts of the creation process.
The challenge of building a consumer product that appeals to all golfers and that can truly help them improve by understanding their game, and at the same time be easy to use, has been a fantastic design challenge. The entire GAME GOLF team is energized every day to meet this challenge and create the most innovative product on the market.
