Can your GPS system do this?
|
uPro GPS allows you to
visualize a better game
You know the green is just over
the rise, but beyond that you’re
guessing at the approximate distance
of this critical shot. You think
the bunker is guarding the right side of the
green, or does it run the width of the green.
This doubt alone hurts your chances of taking
a good swing and executing your shot properly.
Starting the round with a double bogey
really puts a damper on the day. Wouldn’t it be easier to look on your handheld
distance measuring
device and see the entire
hole with distances not only
to the hole, but to the bunker
and to the back of the
green? Wouldn’t it be even
better if you could preview
each hole before you play
with a video flyover, just like
a televised broadcasts of big
tournaments? And better
yet, wouldn’t it be better ifyou could measure to anything

you could measure to anything on the course
with a few clicks of a button? With the uPro
GPS, you can.
The uPro – touted as the Apple iPhone of
golf GPS at the 2008 PGA Show - hits retail
stores this month. The uPro is
so visually and technologically
advanced, it outperforms every
GPS on the market. It’s intuitive
and user friendly design makes it
the ultimate game improvement
device.
“It was our
goal to develop
an electronic distance
measuring
device that will
give a golfer all
the necessary information he
or she needs to confidently
pick the right club for a shot
and remove any doubt so he
or she can make their best
swing,” explains uPlay Co-Founder and President
Joseph Balardeta.
The unique patent-pending features of the
uPro set it apart from other distance measuring
devices. Some of those features include:
captivating aerial photography
displayed on
a hi-resolution color
screen, video flyovers,
super fast GPS locking,
laser-like capabilities, a
thin and sleek profile,
no membership fees,
and patent pending
technology designed
to improve your game.
The uPro also requires
no special software and
offers thousands of courses nationwide.

All of the unique features of the uPro will
not only enhance your experience, but make
the game more enjoyable. “The uPro will set
a whole new standard for GPS products,” saysBalardeta. “We believe the uPro’s breakthrough
design and technology will help improve anyone’s
game.”
Being able to know the correct and accurate
distance to any point on the hole is a critical
part of the game. When you know what the
distances are, you can effectively
strategize your game.
Whether you need to carry
past a fairway bunker, cross a
hazard, or determine what an
effective layup distance is, the
information is all sitting in the
palm of your hand.
The uPro has two different
modes, BasicMode™ and Pro-
Mode™. BasicMode will give
you all the basic functionality
similar to other hand-held GPS
devices on the market. Distances are displayed
with clear easy to
understand graphics
and aerial photography.
Users are
shown the distance
to the front, back,
and center of the
green while hazards
are displayed in sequential
order with
distances shown to
the front and back
of each one.
“The uPro was developed with the objective
in mind to allow golfers to see the game and
course from a whole new perspective,” says
Balardeta confidently. “Our advanced features
in ProMode, is part of what makes the uPro unlike
any other golf GPS device on the market.”
The uPro’s patent pending technology in
ProMode, features advanced usability you won’t
find in any other device. Aside from the other
unique features, such as aerial photography, a
thin and sleek design, and no membership fees,
ProMode is truly an innovation in the golf GPS
market. ProMode encompasses
SmartView™, AnyPoint™, and
video flyovers. SmartView generates
three custom views based
on your current location on the
course. These views will continue
to update as you
move about the
course, always
providing you
with the correct
and pertinent distances. Any-
Point gives you the ability to
measure to anything on the
course; it has the benefits of a
laser rangefinder, without the
line of sight restrictions. Planning
a layup shot has never
been easier with the use of
AnyPoint. Video flyovers featuring hi-resolution
aerial photography allow you to see the layout
of each hole before you play. The flyover plays
at the beginning of each hole, but can also be
replayed at any time during play, allowing you
to optimize your strategy.
A long round is not only frustrating for you;
it’s frustrating for everyone you’re playing with.
By using a hand-held device, like the uPro, you
always have the information you need in the
palm of your hand allowing for a quicker, more
enjoyable round. You won’t have to run back
and forth to a cart to check distances, or worry
about the accuracy of the distances displayed.
With the uPro the distances displayed pertain
to exactly where you are standing, not from
where the cart is.
“Unlike the cart-mounted GPS systems,”
explains Balardeta, “where you have to position
the cart in a certain place and then you are
only able get an approximate distance because
the cart isn’t where the ball is; the uPro gives
immediate and accurate distances. You’ll save
strokes, the game will flow better with fewer interruptions
and you’ll enjoy your game more.
Since the enactment of Rule 14-3 by the
USGA allowing the use of
distance measuring devices
under a local rule
exception for competitive
play, golfers of all abilities
have been realizing the
positive impact that these
devices can have on not
only a player’s score but
their enjoyment of the
game.
“We feel that the secret to being the best in
the market is to provide superior technology
and unique features, all encompassed in an
easy to use device at a competitive price,” says
Balardeta. “The uPro is going to revolutionize
the golf GPS industry and make it an indispensible
part of the game.”
