ProLink GPS expands to Canada

The system has been installed at three courses in Calgary, Alberta.

ProLink Solutions has partnered with GPS Strategies of Alberta, Canada to install ProLink Solutions GPS at three Calgary golf courses.

ProLink’s GPS system will aid both the game and course management at Elbow Springs Golf Club, Boulder Creek Golf Course and Valley Ridge Golf Club. GPS Strategies intends to expand their presence with ProLink by adding over 1,000 screens in the next 12 months.

Elbow Springs (www.elbowsprings.com) is a 27-hole facility located in the Elbow Valley. Natural ponds and streams come into play on 18 holes of this Ron Ehlert design. Boulder Creek (www.bouldercreek.ca), also built by Ehlert, challenges golfers with 30 acres of water and a back-tee length of nearly 7,000 yards. Valley Ridge (www.valleyridgegolf.com) is near the Bow River.

“We’ve worked with other GPS companies in the past, but none can deliver the product and support to match ProLink’s,” says Perry Logan of GPS Strategies. “These three outstanding courses will benefit greatly from the ProLink system. Their golfers will appreciate its precise yardages and hole depictions, and they’ll play at a quicker pace. Management will see improved efficiency, earn additional food-and-beverage revenue and profit from the use of the GPS screens.”

Adds Lawrence D. Bain, c.e.o. of ProLink Solutions: “Canada boasts an array of great golf courses and we’re proud to partner with GPS Strategies to bring our system to Elbow Springs, Boulder Creek and Valley Ridge. While golfers will enjoy the many game-enhancing features of ProLink GPS, the course operators will see a significant return on their investment while streamlining the management process.”

Other courses featuring ProLink GPS include 2006 Ryder Cup host the K Club (Ireland), 2003 Presidents Cup site Fancourt Hotel and Country Club Estate (South Africa), the Resort Course at La Cantera in San Antonio, home of the PGA TOUR’s Valero Texas Open, and world-class destinations including the Four Seasons Resort Hualalai (Hawaii), Four Seasons Golf Club Resort at Terre Blanche (France) and the Arizona Biltmore Resort & Spa (Arizona).
