Fads come and go. Business cycles are perpetual. Change is inevitable.
What are your biggest problems?
Not enough younger players? Are your fees too high? Is golf boring? Too slow (or not fast enough)? Are you constantly feeling the push/pull between existing members and trying to gain new membership? Is this business model outdated? Be different. Think differently. Be creative.
Let’s keep it simple: Attract younger players and non-golfers to your facility. This isn’t just an “adopt it and they will come” solution; FlingGolf has built the product. Now let’s grow this together! Get the FlingStick into the hands of a younger player. Make them the champion. They’ll tell their friends. They’ll be back. It’s that simple. They won’t destroy your facility. They’ll love it. You can partner with the hockey, baseball, and lacrosse players. Organizations will want to have their events at your facility.

At PlusOne Sports, we are enormously proud and grateful for how far FlingGolf has gone in our first full year. Our FlingSticks are now on courses in the USA, Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean, several countries in Europe and most recently New Zealand. We even got a report of a round being played in Morocco, Africa! We set out to create nothing less than a killer new sport, and thanks to our pioneering friends and customers in the golf course, lacrosse, and resort worlds, we have done just that. Players are having fun on golf courses, and those courses are seeing their revenues bump back up to where they should be.
Thank you for a fantastic 2015, continue to spread the FlingGospel, and we look forward to growing the sport even more in 2016.

So stoked to be featured in the family issue of Golf Digest (Jason Day on the cover with his son). FlingGolf is featured as a great option for young athletes and families, especially for lacrosse lovers. Also mentioned was Woodstone Meadows GC, at the Massanutten Resort in Virginia, which killed it this year with over 1500 rounds of FingGolf played! Onward!
One thing: GD says the max distance is 200 yards with one of our FlingSticks, but we know now, thanks to the Boston Cannons lacrosse team, that 250 yards is attainable. Huge bombs from them.

Some of the biggest FlingGolf bombs ever occurred at the Boston Cannons Charity Golf Classic to benefit the Boston Children's Hospital.
Cannons players Marty Bowes, Sean Lawton, Mike Maggio, Mitch Belisle and Coach Murphy were crushing 230 plus yard flings with their new FlingSticks from PlusOne Sports. Here's a video of them going for gold after the tourney at Granite Links Golf Course in Quincy, Mass.
Thanks Cannons for a great event and a great cause!
