ROSEVILLE, Calif., Aug. 3 /PRNewswire/ — RadarGolf(TM) Inc. announced the
company has entered into an exclusive agreement with The Sharper Image(TM) to
offer the company’s RadarGolf system, featuring Ball Positioning System(TM)
technology. RadarGolf’s BPS(TM) technology helps golfers quickly locate lost
golf balls. The Sharper Image will feature the new product during the 2005
holiday season in all its sales channels — retail stores, mail-order catalog
and online Website.
RadarGolf CEO Steve Harari said, “This is a very significant retail
partnership for RadarGolf. Sharper Image will be the only retailer to carry
our new, innovative product this holiday season.”
Richard Thalheimer, founder and CEO of The Sharper Image, said, “A system
like this for finding lost golf balls has been a dream of inventors for a long
time but only RadarGolf has succeeded. Golfers will absolutely love this
fantastic product. By quickly finding wayward golf balls, golfers save time,
save money and — most importantly — save strokes. What can be more fun than
being electronically guided to your ball hiding in that tuft of grass?
Everyone will benefit and enjoy the game even more.”
The RadarGolf system is allowed for posting U.S. Golf Association
handicaps. However, it cannot be used in USGA tournament play.
The system, which includes one RadarGolf handheld device and carrying
case, one dozen USGA-conforming RadarGolf balls, two Shield-It(TM) pouches and
an instructional DVD, is priced at $349.95. Additional golf balls are priced
at $39.95 a dozen. In addition to The Sharper Image stores, consumers may
reserve a system now at http://www.radargolf.com/ for delivery in the United
States and Canada this Christmas season. Shipments outside of North America
will begin in 2006.

As a golf purist, I don’t usually use any gadget when I play. But as my years begin creeping up on me, I realize, grudgingly, that I might have to some day use a golf gadget when I play. This radargolf contraption might just be the first thing I buy then. Until that time I’ll keep playing golf gadget free.
