ATLANTA, April 14, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- The Sunday - April 13th, 2008 edition of the NY Post ran a story on a new golf course website, Eyespygolf.com, that referred to the service as 'Golf Porn'.
As demeaning as that description may appear, CEO of Eyespygolf, Chris Watson, agrees.
"The story that ran in the Post was referring to the fact that golfers can be a little bit obsessed with the game of golf; I think anyone who has a golfer in their family would agree with that sentiment. The fact that they referred to our services as Golf Porn is pretty much accurate -- golfers seem to be addicted to the free service we've created. Our traffic is surging and over 50% of our users save us to their favorites."
The question is WHY
Eyespygolf.com has created a Google Earth golf course directory that has hooked up over 16,000 U.S. golf courses to their locations on Google Earth. Each course has been given its own page complete with directions, green fees, contact details, weather forecast, Google Maps, and the all important link to Google Earth. Now golfers don't have to troll through Google Earth to find their courses. Eyespygolf has taken the legwork out of it for them.
Flyover Tours of every course on the 2008 PGA Tour
In addition the site has created tee to green flyover tours for the entire 2008 PGA Tour. Watson explained, "These 2008 PGA Tour flyovers are pretty amazing, they allow our users to click on a button and be taken on hole by hole tours of some of the most famous golf courses in the world, including Augusta National, Pebble Beach, TPC Sawgrass and 40 others on the tour."
