LOS ALTOS, Calif., Jan. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- RadarGolf Inc. announced today that the company's October launch has generated strong interest among consumers, the press and others in the industry. "Golfers tell us they see our system for finding golf balls as a way to improve their score rapidly and get more satisfaction and enjoyment from the game," said Steve Harari, CEO of RadarGolf. "By minimizing lost ball penalties, we estimate that the average golfer will improve per-round scores by an average of two to four strokes. Golf course operators and manufacturers also stand to gain from a faster pace of play and more total rounds played."

The RadarGolf system consists of a U.S. Golf Association-conforming golf ball that contains the RadarGolf radio-frequency "tag" and a compact handheld device that attaches to a golf bag. The handheld unit "beeps" when pointed at the ball and is effective at a distance of 40 to 125 feet. The tag is extremely small and is built into the ball at the time of manufacture; it can be included in any commercial golf ball.

Patti Hayes, an advisor to RadarGolf, said, "I have met with representatives of the leading manufacturers of golf balls, and they see a great deal of opportunity with this product." Hayes, a former professional golfer and owner of a large retail golf store, is a golf industry consultant and women's high school golf coach. "With my high school players, I've seen first-hand Why RadarGolf? of losing balls in the fairway because of heavy leaf coverage in the fall. I think golfers will be thrilled with the product."

Harari said the company is in discussions with golf ball manufacturers to license and distribute the RadarGolf products in North America, Asia and Europe. Harari and other RadarGolf representatives will attend the PGA Merchandise Show next week in Orlando, Fla. Anyone wishing to meet with the company should contact Harari at 650-949-1317 or harari@RadarGolf.com.
