The world’s best in golf virtual technology arrives in South Australia

5 May 2023

In a South Australian first, golfers of all abilities can now experience the sport’s best virtual golf, PGA tour-proven software, the ‘TrackMan Range’ at West Beach Parks Golf.

Every skill level can benefit from the innovative technology which offers feedback and a data-driven experience that turns practising into a game.

West Beach Parks CEO, Kate Anderson, said TrackMan Range isn’t just for seasoned golfers.

“West Beach Parks Golf is excited to offer South Australians the state’s first TrackMan Range. It’s ideal for those looking to hone their skills, as well as groups of friends, family or workmates who simply want to have some fun playing golf,” said Mrs Anderson.

“The technology uses radar and a multi-camera tracking system that allows the more serious golfers to improve their game but also provides an entertaining experience for players of all abilities with interactive games like Bullseye, Closest to the Pin, Hit it! and Capture the Flag.

“The new technology is part of West Beach Parks’ ongoing commitment to providing innovative golfing experiences.”

TrackMan Range is located at the West Beach Parks Golf Driving Range and features touch screens giving participants an opportunity to virtually play some of the finest golf courses in the world with the use of high-definition graphics and virtual recreations of more than 30 PGA Tour stops, all of which are so vivid and realistic of courses including PGA National, Liberty National, and Ryder-cup host Valderrama.

The ball tracking technology allows serious golfers to analyse their game data and work specifically on ball range, total distance, flight angle, ball direction, trajectory peak, dispersion, and distance to the flag. Players can download the TrackMan Range app allowing them access to their own detailed data reports that summarise their stats and tracking improvements, regardless of skill level.
