4 Ways Your Golf Course Benefits From Digital Signage
When the weather is right and the green has been freshly mowed, there are few activities more purely relaxing than an afternoon round of golf on the weekend. As the owner or manager of a golf course, you know you have an obvious appeal for the product you're selling — but it's always worthwhile to find ways to set yourself apart from the competition.
Using digital monitors for your golf course signs offers you an opportunity to create a unique, technology-enhanced experience. With cutting-edge digital signage from Sun Vision Display, you can simultaneously meet key customer needs and contribute to your business's bottom-line priorities.
Here's the lowdown on why digital monitors are ideally equipped to function as driving range signs and serve other major signage needs:
1. Enrich the customer experience across all 18 holes
Golf unfolds at a leisurely pace for many reasons. But one of the most notable of these is that anyone who takes the sport at all seriously will think carefully about their swing before teeing up and driving the ball. Numerous factors can affect this seemingly simple action (and its reaction), ranging from the angle of the sunlight to the air's humidity.
By using cutting-edge digital monitors as your course's golf tee signs, you can provide plenty of valuable information that any golfer will sorely appreciate. The display can feature course maps and key game metrics, such as the par number and the distance from the tee box to the putting green. You can also include details on environmental factors that might affect golfers' swings: wind speed and direction, temperature, barometric pressure and more. The signs can even show video replays of every swing. And thanks to Sun Vision Display's reflective liquid crystal display (RLCD) technology, rest assured that the monitor will always be visible even when the sun's glare is near-blinding.
2. Manage essential communications
Most golf courses aren't just locations where the sport is played, especially those that are part of much larger country clubs. Courses and their adjoining facilities — the clubhouse, restaurant, pro shop and more — can play host to gatherings for local community groups, autograph signings for visiting pros, business outings, birthday parties and even weddings.
Naturally, you want to keep your clientele in the loop about current and upcoming events, and using digital signage is one of the best ways to do just that. RLCD monitors can show static displays with event schedules or play out like a slideshow. Also, they're an effective way to remind customers of any policies or special circumstances that might affect gameplay. Last but not least, these digital golf course signs can play videos promoting your course's features or show other promotional content (such as videos from any social media outlets you might use).
3. Advertise with dynamic displays
If your golf course is sponsored by local businesses, why settle for traditional, unmoving signage when you can display sponsors' logos and billboard-style advertisements using RLCD digital monitors? For golf course owners who want to attract advertisers but haven't yet, being able to include digital advertising as part of your pitch can be a major selling point.
Using digital golf course sponsor signs, you're all but guaranteed to leave a much more distinct impression on anyone who sees them than if you opted for a banner or sign. With the latter, there's a strong chance that your customers will walk on by the advertisement without a second thought.
In addition to showcasing your sponsors, your digital golf signage can tell visitors everything they need to know about the course's other amenities. For example, monitors can display the restaurant's menu and you can easily adjust it when you have specials. You can also promote your pro shop and highlight the clubs, balls, tees, caddies and other accessories you have in stock. 
(Worried about size? Don't be: Sun Vision Display's monitors can be set up as tiled 2x2 or 3x3 configurations to enlarge imagery so it's certain to catch the eye.)
4. Stoke interest in your charitable efforts
Golf courses are great venues for events intended to benefit any and all charities of your choice: Tournaments are usually a good draw, and you can also host dinners, raffles and other events at the restaurant or clubhouse. But you have to ensure your guests can readily find out about these charitable occasions.
Digital signage can help ensure customers know about the organizations being sponsored and dynamically communicate any other essential information: date and time, ticket cost (if applicable), tournament prizes, special menus for charity dinners and more.
Bold digital monitors are also a big help if your venue hosts a well-known annual charity drive with a different sponsor (or sponsors) every year. You don't have to discard old signs and buy new ones, but can simply change out the visuals streaming from your monitor's connected devices. That's a much more efficient (and less costly) solution.
Make your golf course a visual marvel with Sun Vision Display
Transform your golf course signage strategy by implementing Sun Vision Display's RLCD monitors. They are available as either 32" or 43" models — and, as noted, are easy to tile for your bigger display needs.
You need not worry about any surprises the weather might bring to your golf course thanks to the monitors' weatherized enclosures and temperature-resistant surfaces. Also, in places on the course where wiring isn't an option, you can still use our displays with the power of a 12V battery — and if you're concerned about efficiency, Sun Vision Display monitors consume 95% less power than other comparable technologies.
