Digital Caddies Inks Agreement with The PGA National Golf Resort & SpaDec 17, 2012 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Digital Caddies announced that it has recently signed an agreement to extend services with the PGA National Golf Resort located in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. According to a release, the Agreement calls for an extension of services that Digital Caddies has been providing over the last several years. The PGA National, with its 5 tour worthy champion golf courses, has also expressed an interest in installing and utilizing Digital Caddies' wireless tablet based service slated to launch in early 2013. As previously reported, with approximately 20,000 golf courses in North America and over 30,000 worldwide, the company said it has positioned the company with its new tablet based GPS service. The new service will provide rich streaming content and real time distance information to the golfer while also providing valuable information and services to the golf course. Digital Caddies' newest service will also incorporate the ability to communicate with others on the course, post to social media outlets, create dynamic leaderboards for scoring, call the beverage cart, interact with the golf course officials and much more. Digital Caddies noted that golf courses will also see many incredible benefits by being able to monitor the location of all golf carts on the course and having the ability to communicate with golfers directly allowing for control and change in the pace of play. This ability for a golf course to influence the pace of play through the tablet and other key features will be an invaluable tool towards increasing the profitability of a course. Brad Nightingale, Digital Caddies CEO, said, "We are extremely pleased with the recent extension of services with the PGA National Golf courses. Our communication with PGA National, in regards to the potential implementation of our latest tablet based service, has been very positive and we feel these courses possess the ability to be an excellent launching platform for our technology on a nationally recognized scale."
