Integrating GPS with an electric caddy is an idea long overdue and MGI has done it with the Ai Navigator GPS+. The GPS handle display is large enough to be read easily and bright enough for strong sunlight.
At the PGA Show Demo Day, it was a hit with people constantly around asking questions and test walking with it over varying terrain. This was followed on the Show floor with attendees coming to the booth for hands-on demonstrations all day long.
“MGI has always believed the walking game deserves world-class innovation,” said Miranda Turner, CEO of MGI Golf Inc. “At this year’s PGA Show, we are unveiling our most defining presence yet, from the launch of landmark technology to our most impressive booth ever built. It’s a reflection of the scale of our investment, our belief in the category, and our mission to show the global golf industry why MGI continues to set the standard for electric golf caddies and the future of walking golf.”
The MGI App is also a nice touch having scoring and map functions as well as notifications from your phone for calls, emails and texts right on the handle display screen.
