Data from the GAME device is synced to the cloud via Bluetooth to a smartphone or via USB to a PC. The GAME software is feature-rich and allows you to view and socialize your game in a fun and easy way The GAME platform is centered on three key ingredients: See, Share and Compare. The digital interaction needed to be discreet during golf play, but also engaging and immersive before and after.

By using accurate maps, you can see every shot you take on any given course and compare your game against your friends or your favorite pro.” GAME GOLF is worn on the hip and works seamlessly with the mobile app and website, utilizing advanced sensor technology to track movement and transmit data as play evolves over time.Low profile and discreet, the device clips on the belt or pocket, and communicates through RFID with pin-size tags on the top of each club.
