At the 2026 PGA Show in Orlando, our Co-CEO Adam Kanouse joined Colin Weston live on The ModGolf Podcast, and the conversation went far beyond “just another GPS system.”

Adam talked about the future of golf technology, golfer-first design, and unlocking new revenue for courses – without sacrificing experience. In this blog, we’ll cover the highlights of their conversation.

We’re Not Protecting Carts. We’re Elevating Golfers.

Most GPS providers built their platforms to protect assets. But Reach Golfers is built to elevate people.

As Adam shared in the interview, Reach Golfers exists to create an exceptional on-course experience for the golfer while giving operators the tools they need to run smarter businesses.

But how can a cart-mounted GPS improve the golfer’s experience? By making every part of the day on the course better. Reach Golfers’ ultra-bright display GPS features:

  • Artistically enhanced 3D aerial renderings
  • Dynamic real-time yardages
  • Auto-zoom functionality
  • Drive distance tracking
  • Blind hole safety visibility
  • Integrated ordering for F&B and extended play

It’s intuitive, clean, responsive, and designed for how golfers actually play.

The Golf Market Opportunity Is Massive (And Underutilized)

One of the biggest surprises Adam shared?

65% of public courses in the $45–$75 green fee range still don’t have GPS screens.

That means more than half of public courses aren’t catering to the golfer experience as well as they could be. And the golf industry is growing rapidly. According to “The Graffis Report 2026” recently published by the National Golf Foundation (NGF):

  • 549M rounds were played in 2025
  • 29.1M Americans played golf in 2025
  • 41% of golfers have household incomes over $100K
  • Since 2019, the youth golfers demographic is up +58%

Golf is currently bigger than pre-Tiger Woods levels, more diverse than ever, financially stronger, culturally cooler, and structurally sustainable. To solidify your course as a leader and destination spot, it’s critical to meet the rising golfer demand for data and technology.

Courses Need To Adopt A Smarter Business Model

Cost is always a concern with any new piece of equipment. Innovative golf course technology usually isn’t cheap, but it may be more affordable than you’d think.

With Reach Golfers, you can raise your fee by $1 or charge $1 on your cart fee that offsets the entire cost of this technology on a 70-cart fleet.

With minimal cost increases to green fees, courses can implement GPS technology to attract more golfers and, in turn, increase revenue. Reach Golfers can make this promise because we run on a dual-revenue model:

  1. Affordable subscription pricing for courses
  2. Premium in-cart advertising from national or local brands

This allows us to:

  • Keep operator costs low
  • Deliver premium hardware
  • Maintain simplicity in pricing
  • Unlock new margin opportunities

That’s operational efficiency with measurable ROI.

Reach Golfer’s Isn’t Just a GPS Device. It’s a Co-Pilot.

This is where things get exciting. At the ground level, Reach Golfers is a GPS, but our technology is actually collecting cart-level data that helps operators:

  • Monitor pace of play more effectively
  • Identify traffic patterns
  • Reduce ranger labor
  • Improve tee sheet utilization
  • Optimize revenue opportunities

Golfers are on course for 4.5 hours. Traditionally, operators only interact with them for five minutes in the clubhouse.

We’re closing that gap. With our cart-mounted golf cart GPS technology, course operators can communicate in real-time with golfers during critical moments of the game. The future of course operations isn’t guesswork. It’s intelligent data-driven decision-making.

The best part is that course operators don’t have to spend hours trying to set up and master a new system.

2026 Is a Growth Year

With Reach Golfer’s GPS technology, course operators can expect:

  • 22-hour battery life (no wired technology)
  • Rapid 2-hour fleet installations
  • Hardware leasing partners
  • Cart-agnostic flexibility 
  • Dedicated customer support

But we’re just getting started.

The PGA Show confirmed it: operators are actively buying. They’re looking for solutions. And they’re ready for modern technology.

Let’s Work Together For a Strong 2026 Golf Season

Technology should enhance the game we love, not complicate it. Whether you’re:

  • A golf course operator looking to modernize
  • A PGA Professional wanting better tools
  • Or a brand seeking guaranteed human attention
