In what is believed to be a world first in the golf industry, Moore Park Golf has installed a giant LED screen at its driving range to provide a host of new entertainment options to golfing enthusiasts and patrons of Moore Park Golf and the Sydney Golf Academy.
The high definition screen will be used for a range of golfing coaching, events, golf activity and entertainment, including:
- live large group golf tuition with real time camera feed of the golf pro on the screen;
- live demonstrations from golf equipment manufacturers;
- screening of major sporting events;
- social media interaction with capabilities for live tweets to be shown on screen; and
- ability to customise content for golf, corporate and coaching events.
The new addition to one of Australia’s best public golf courses is 6.6m in height, and features a 22m2 screen, a custom-built protective net and weighs 6.2 tonnes. It is secured by 2m long ground screws and will screen at an HD 720P quality.
“To complement the new screen, we have installed a full audio system across 40 of the driving range bays, allowing sound and vision simultaneously,” said Erich Weber, General Manager, Moore Park Golf.
“A live camera feed will also allow us real time projection of activity on the range, which will be great for en masse training and demonstration events. This really is a leap forward for the golf industry and complements the more than $3 million that has recently been invested in Moore Park Golf’s facilities.”
