Radar Golf System
The RadarGolf System The RadarGolf System, using Ball Positioning SystemA¯A¿A½ (BPSA¯A¿A½) technology, consists of three main components. The handheld, Shield-It pouch and ball work together to save you strokes, time, and frustration. The RadarGolf System Includes: * Radar Golf Handheld * 1 DozenRadarGolf Balls * Handheld Protective Carry Case * Shield-It pouch set (one large and one small) * Owner’s Manual * Informational DVD * 6 AAA Batteries System Details BPS technology uses advanced electronics to enable the handheld to transmit a specific radio frequency (RF) signal. When this signal reaches a RadarGolfBall, the ball returns a separate specific RF signal. The handheld receiver is tuned to A¯A¿A½listenA¯A¿A½for the signal from the ball. An LCD provides visual feedback and an audio tone allows you to hone in on your lost ball. You will receive stronger feedback as you get closer to your ball. The handheld will locate all RadarGolfballs (in your pocket, golf bag or golf cart for example). It is critical that you keep all RadarGolf balls shielded from detection. Place all spare balls in the Shield-It pouches. The pouches are made with a special metallic fabric that blocks radio frequency signals and allows you to find only your A¯A¿A½ball in playA¯A¿A½ when searching. Use the large pouch in your golf bag to store a dozen balls and the small pouch in your pocket for one ball. The ball is USGA conforming and meets all USGA specifications for size, weight, distance, initial velocity and symmetry. It has been thoroughly tested for durability and performance parameters including carry, distance, roll and dispersion accuracy. The embedded microchip is so small that it does not affect the performance of the ball in any way. The chip has no power source and will last as long as the ball. FAQs Does the RadarGolf System conform to USGA rules? The USGA states that scores may still be submitted for handicap purposes since the RadarGolf System does not assist in the physical execution of the golf stroke. Therefore, the RadarGolf system is allowed for posting USGA handicaps. What is the range of the RadarGolf System? 30 to 100 feet depending on the terrain. What type of care is required for the RadarGolf Handheld? The RadarGolf Handheld should be kept in its protective case when not in use to protect it from outdoor elements. Excessive moisture, sun, heat, or physical shocks can damage the unit and affect its electronic sensitivity. Batteries (6 AAA) should be replaced at regular intervals to ensure good system performance. Does the golfer need to be awa
