The PGA Championship is at Whistling Straits this week. StrackaLine now has Whistling Straits yardage books available online. These are the same bright orange and green yardage books that you see in the back pocket of nearly every tour player and caddie on the PGA Tour. Each yardage book has a “green guide” section in the back of the book, using the same technology as the StrackaLine app.
All players and caddies will be supplied Greens Guides from the PGA and StrackaLine for use during the PGA Championship. Golfers can get the same yardage books the pros use .
Don’t forget to download the StrackaLine app so that you can see the slopes, breaks and putt lines on each green at Whistling Straits. The app is designed to help you never misread another putt again! Use this link to download the App: itunes.apple.com/us/app/strackaline-pro/id838958227?mt=8
StrackaLine is the patented technology for tracking the exact slopes and breaks of a golf courses’ putting green. Using top of the line lasers from the land surveying industry, this advanced technology scans the surface of the green for millions of data points that are accurate to the millimeter to pick up even the most subtle elevation change. The iOS app renders 3D laser scan data to calculate the exact aim point to make your putt.
