Mobile Apps | Best Approach - The world leader in golf course media

The adoption and proliferation of smartphones and related applications, or “apps” as they are more commonly known, has created a huge opportunity for golf courses to market and promote their facility. Best Approach has launched a program whereby courses can leverage their investment in media (yardage guides, flyovers, etc.) and turn that investment into a dynamic mobile application.We have developed templates for both iPhone and Droid applications that combine your existing yardage guide and/or flyovers along with additional course information, tee time booking, and location/contact details, all into one mobile application. The video presentation on the right highlights some of the features of our mobile applications. (Move your mouse over the video to view the control bar.)
