“All of these salesman are industry veterans and I’m happy to have them representing ezLocator in their parts of the country,” said sales manager Bruce Hutchinson. “We will be adding others in the near future so we will have the entire United States covered.”

More than 150 courses, including the Merion Golf Club in Ardmore, Pa., which hosted the 2013 U.S. Open, use the software program that employs 3D laser imaging and GPS technology to find more pin locations. This lets superintendents control where the pins are placed and helps them maintain turf conditions.
