Innovative ReelGOLF® Experience Beta Test at Pebble Beach's The Hay

Pebble Beach Launches Innovative ReelGOLF® Experience

The prestigious Pebble Beach Resorts is making waves with the introduction of the ReelGOLF® Experience, a revolutionary on-course video technology that enhances the golfing experience. This initiative allows players at The Hay, a nine-hole short course designed by the legendary Tiger Woods, to capture and share unforgettable moments from their rounds in a social and engaging manner.

What is the ReelGOLF® Experience?

The ReelGOLF® Experience is a state-of-the-art video system that utilizes advanced artificial intelligence to record players' shots on signature par 3 holes. The centerpiece of this initiative is hole No. 9, aptly named 'Tiger Hole,' where players can document their swinging prowess in style.

How Does It Work?

Players can activate the ReelGOLF system easily by scanning a QR code located near the tee box. The installation of Bosch® cameras ensures that every swing is captured from the perfect angle. After a shot is taken, the technology processes the video, which includes shot tracing, incorporating the player’s name and the course logo. The edited high-definition video is then instantly sent to the player's mobile device, allowing for quick sharing across social media platforms—a perfect way to remember and showcase one’s golfing experience.

David Stivers, the CEO of Pebble Beach Company, emphasizes the essence of these innovations, stating, "The Hay is a place where everyone can enjoy the Pebble Beach experience. The integration of ReelGOLF technology enables our guests to walk away with a memorable highlight from one of our resort's centerpieces."

A Historic Venue

The Hay is not just a golf course; it holds historical significance. Established in 1957 under the vision of Peter Hay, it redefined what a short course could entail, focusing on fun and accessibility for golfers of all ages and skill levels. Tiger Woods and TGR Design took this legacy further with the redesign, naming holes after iconic golf personalities and memorable moments prevalent in Pebble Beach Golf Links.

Expanding the ReelGOLF® Experience

ReelGOLF’s introduction at The Hay marks one of the first installations of its kind within a golf resort. However, other golf venues are also embracing this technology, with installations at several notable courses across the United States, including Old Corkscrew Golf Club in Florida and Carter Plantation Golf Course in Louisiana, enhancing the golfing landscape at these iconic venues.

Kevin Imes, the creator of ReelGOLF, shares his excitement about this partnership: "The Hay attracts players of varying ages and levels, providing an inclusive environment where they can engage with the game, and ReelGOLF ensures that these moments are captured for years to come."

Booking a Tee Time

For those looking to experience this groundbreaking technology in action, bookings are available at The Hay. Golfers can find more information and secure their tee times through the Pebble Beach website.

Conclusion
