StayPrime Golf has launched its latest, top of the range, RANGER SP1 GPS System at world renowned Dubai golf course, Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club, part of Dubai Golf. The club has upgraded 80 carts from the existing StayPrime R36 model to the new RANGER SP1.
This follows on from sister club, C which has 170 units in its fleet for their Majlis Course and Faldo Course.
The UAE's oldest golf club, the newly rebranded Abu Dhabi City Golf Club, has also chosen the StayPrime RANGER SP1 for its brand new fleet of 40 carts.
David Gray, Golf Operations Executive at Dubai Creek commented, "Stayprime's latest option has increased the range of services offered and actually made the unit easier to use. The new high resolution flat screen makes viewing yardages easy, with crisp and clear image even from outside the cart. This makes a difference for all of our members and guests playing the course and adds to a more enjoyable experience with quick, easy and accurate yardages available at all times." Gray concluded, "The new unit looks great, performs well and offers us the best club provided choice compared to most hand held devices on the market."
Rhian Lobo at Abu Dhabi City Golf Club said, "The StayPrime RANGER SP1 is an excellent product, but what swayed it for us was StayPrime's 24/7 on-call in-country support. This has proved invaluable in tailoring the system to our course requirements, and ensuring that we continue to offer the city's growing golfing community an enjoyable and challenging experience."
Hugh Bishop, CEO of StayPrime added, "The StayPrime RANGER, whilst being a leader in cart mounted GPS systems, also offers an additional commercial benefit for the club in that it provides advertising revenue opportunities, and an additional branding resource on corporate days at realistic and affordable rates."
