Arccos Golf Named Participating Sponsor of College Golf Camps of America
#1 Performance Tracker in Golf Enhances Recruiting Process, Helps Speed Player Improvement
(STAMFORD, CT) – Arccos Golf, LLC – maker of the #1 Performance Tracker in Golf – announces that it has been named a participating sponsor of College Golf Camps of America (CGC).
The partnership will see Arccos have a significant presence at CGC events, commencing with CGC – Hilton Head, March 20-22, 2015. Reflecting Arccos’commitment to supporting junior and collegiate golf through engagement of players, coaches and instructors, the program will include on-site sponsorships and a series of presentations about the use of shot tracking and analytics to improve performance.
“As the only system to offer GPS + Live Shot Tracking + Tour Analytics, Arccos is uniquely positioned to help players of all ages identify their strengths and weakness,” says CB Tuite, Vice President of Sales at Arccos. “Not only does this speed improvement, it also serves as an incredibly valuable tool for teaching, training and recruiting.”
Recently honored with the “Top Buyer’s Choice Award” at the 2015 PGA Merchandise Show, as determined by a distinguished panel of PGA Professionals and merchandisers, Arccos is endorsed by 2014 FedExCup Champion Billy Horschel. Like scores of other elite players worldwide, Horschel uses the unique, comprehensive data Arccos provides to better understand his game.
“Arccos provides a platform to pinpoint where you need the most improvement and will only enhance the experience of College Golf Camps” says CGC President Nick Rook. “Having the ability to track your shots through an automated system and share the data with your instructor, peers, college coaches and others is just one more layer of opportunity for junior golfers.”
Retailing for $399, Arccos requires no alterations to pre-shot routines, additional devices, tapping or other hindrances to enjoyment and improvement. It features a set of 14 virtually weightless sensors, which easily attach to the end of a club grip. Each is paired just once via Bluetooth to the company’s free iPhone app.
Along with GPS for nearly 20,000 courses worldwide, Arccos captures critical data for your game, instantly delivering information on distances hit, club averages, driving accuracy, greens in regulation, sand saves, putts and more. This helps golfers identify patterns and refine tactics before, during and after each round.
Essential to the Arccos system is its proprietary Tour Analytics platform developed in conjunction with golf’s most renowned statistician, Peter Sanders. Drawing from Sanders’ work with PGA Tour star Zach Johnson and many others, it automatically breaks down a players’ handicap into five key components – driving, approach, chipping, sand game and putting. This allows players to:
· Gain insight into what every shot means
· Understand exactly how each part of their game contributes to scoring
· Explore comparative data in each of the five components from golfers with the same handicap
· Evaluate patterns across their entire golf history, supporting refinement of on-course tactics
Now available at Apple Stores, select golf retailers and pro shops nationwide, and www.arccosgolf.com, Arccos is more than just a great tool for the individual users. Top instructors rely on the system to help their students recognize and correct faults, such as club distance gaps, noticeable shot dispersion patterns and other problem areas.
Led by a team of Ivy League engineers, rocket scientists, PhD’s and designers, Arccos Golf is named after a function of advanced mathematics.
