Developed in South Korea, the SmartGolf stick revealed at CES is set to revolutionize golf practice eliminating the need to fork out hundreds on the likes of TopGolf, Trackman or the $6K plus Bushnell Launch Pro practice system.
The device that we saw at CES 2024 is incredibly simple, accurate and packed with technology.
Set to retail for US$299 it does almost everything a Trackman does without the need for screens and cumbersome technology systems that take up space, it’s simple to set up at home or the office and in South Korea and the USA golf pros are using the stick to give golf lessons.
All you need is a smart golf stick that comes with what appears to be a ball on the end and a tablet or smartphone.
The stick is half the size of a normal golf club and below the grip area so a simple button, all you do is sync with a tablet or smartphone, and when set up swing as you would normally when playing gold.
The results are amazing, distance angle and direction are all delivered to the screen in seconds.
Dr Jongmin Kim Ph. D the CEO of the South Korean Company has recently established an office in the USA.
When ChannelNews test the SmartGolf stick we were impressed with the ease of use but more do the accuracy of the data even on a packed CES show floor.
Described as a Universal swing analyzer you simply charge the sick via a USB C cable and charger, you can even play in front of a large TV with your golf image appearing on the screen.
This is a product that if launched in Australia is going to take off among golf fans, with the cost recovered very quickly.
