Club Catcher

Club Catcher is a new product to solve an old problem - leaving golf clubs behind on the course. With sensors and an intelligent mobile app, never lose another club. Since golf was invented in 15th-century Scotland, it’s happened every day on every course - golfers leaving clubs behind, often a wedge somewhere around the green… That pang of panic as you realize it during the round and tell your group you need to go back and look for it, interrupting those behind you and delaying everyone's game; Searching the lost and found clubs in the pro shop to retrieve it after the round; Spending time and money buying a replacement club, or Not finding an exact match and deciding between mismatched clubs or a whole new set. If this is you, you're not alone. A survey by a major golf equipment manufacturer found that 70% of golfers have lost or left clubs behind on the course. Club Catcher solves this problem. Lightweight devices screw into the grips of whichever clubs you want to protect. Inside each device are sensors, a microcontroller, and a Bluetooth radio that notifies the app of the club's status. The app uses proprietary algorithms to determine when you've accidentally left a club behind, and gives you an alert (audible and/or vibration). To answer a frequently asked question: the app does not depend on location or distance from a club - this would give many false alarms, as golfers often take their clubs far away from their phone during normal play, for example when the phone is in their golf bag on a golf cart. In a typical scenario, you take out your pitching wedge and putter. After you finish putting, you return the putter - at that point the app knows you should be returning your pitching wedge too, and if you don't, the app alerts you before you move on to the next hole. This app is free. To purchase Club Catcher devices or for more information, go to: www.theclubcatcher.com It's perfect for you or as a gift.
