We're excited to have David Hunter from the Shot Scope and Adam Sheldon, my partner here. We are going to learn all about what a wonderful company you have. Uh, give, give us a quick overview of all that Shot scope represents. I mean, firstly, thank you for having me on. Hey guys. Delight to be here. Um, yeah, we do short tracking. We do GPS, we do laser range finder products. Yeah. And what's really cool is the ecosystem brings all those products together. The app and the dashboard really allows a golfer to get a on-course off course experience. That's fantastic. And, and, and you've, you've built shots, Scott, now there's multiple different products of different, different levels, different technology out there. How, how does it compare to, you know, some of the other competition out there? What kind of sets shot scope apart in the marketplace, I guess? Yeah, so I mean, first and foremost our vision is for all golfers. You know, we want golfers from plus three handicap to 25 handicap of all age groups and, and you know, different levels of affluence to be able to access our full product line. And we add value at all levels. We've got market entry GPS watch devices that have full course maps and you can actually zoom in in the green and you can even manually track your shots. Last Night you were showing me just a wonderful application, your app integration with your watch and actually a story that was awesome, uh, at the old course of St. Andrew's. Just a phenomenal use of strategy and uh, and tracking. Describe what we're talking about. Yeah, So one of our, uh, one of our team, Jennifer Saxton, she's in the top 150 in the amateur rankings for golf. And she won a tournament at Saint Andrews and she won it using all her stats, all her analytics, all her data from our short score. And how did that work? So, um, you know when you go out, you, you put little tags, we've got little one gram weight tags. Yeah, yeah. You were sure. Um, they don't impact your swing weight and they screw into the top of your golf rep. Um, they all come pre-programmed. They're all itemized. Yeah. So you just pop them in. Yeah. Um, and then you put the watch on, you go and play and you gather all this data. So on average, our golf course improved by four shots in 25 rounds. And obviously Jen, Jen had years worth of data, so it was quite an interesting story. She made a eight, I think, And Right. She made an eight because she hit it in, uh, the bunker. Then she had what this an old joke, two in a bunker, dead in the bunker, whatever. Yep. And she hit the blade. It went backwards. Yep. And behind her, then she was able to get it up and anyway, it turned out to be an eight. And what's amazing about the software guys is that as you're playing, it's showing you your tendencies where you're going. So then she was able to then show us that she went like birdie, birdie, birdie, eagle. Yeah. Crazy. And actually won the golf tournament. Yeah. Using All her historical starts. Yeah. To see I need an eight iron, I need a six iron. She was dialed into your yardages because she'd gathered all this air and, and look for most golfers to try and gather that type of air. Yeah. It's really back. It's really painful. Back to how I was doing it. This takes that all away. It's just a hundred percent automatic. Well, you're not fooling yourself, right? No. And eight irons, this is what I do when I'm actually playing. This is what that five iron does. So now you can strategize where to hit the ball and actually what iron am I gonna hit on my second shot when you're on the tee? That's a great way to think of it too. Right? Yeah. And of course some of our other product lines, the rangefinder, the handheld GPS, you know, the rangefinders have been hugely popular, popular here in America. Uh, it looks like you, you can customize this. Yep. Is that, is that correct? We do customization. So it's a magnetic plate that you can customize and put in. It comes in black and white, just an amazing rangefinder. It's based on our popular L two. So this is one of the best selling laser rangefinders in the market. This is $150. One 50. That's great. One 50. Adam, did you check out the watch? It's, it's just I have, I mean they're, they're, they're amazing. I, I, I, I'm, I'm overwhelmed with the amount of technology and all this. I'm a, I'm a very basic golfer, but uh, the amount of data I can extract and everything from it. Yeah. Like I said, it's designed for all golfers. So you know, we've got golfers that are 14 that are scratch handicaps all the way through to golfers are 92 using this data. Gimme Three things people need to know about SHA scope.
