Why Automate Your Range?

Why automate your range? Simply put, automating your driving range equipment will bring new customers who hit more balls in a shorter time. Whether you are updating an older range or building from scratch, the choice to automate is a clear winner. The golf industry is experiencing a tech boom. Todays customers expect ranges to keep up. The future is heading towards more and better tech and the customers are happily following.

Lets compare golf to another industry: Bowling. Up until the 1950’s bowling alleys would pay people to manually clear the pins, send the ball back to the bowler and reset the pins. Then came automation. The entire process increased in speed, consistency, customer enjoyment and most importantly, the bowling alleys profits. It would be a surprise to walk into a bowling alley today that wasn’t automated. 

To satisfy a driving range owners need for increased revenue while offering a unique practice experience, Range Automation Systems (RAS) has developed and implemented the worlds most efficient turn-key automated golf ball washing/drying, storage, delivery and tee-up system. Our solutions are extremely flexible, durable and proven to increase gross revenue by a minimum of 33%!  With RAS, you will receive:

Dependable Driving Range Equipment

We automate your range with equipment that is built tough to provide years of trouble free operation. With over 28 years in business and 20,000+ stations serving up millions of balls a year, we understand how reliable our equipment needs to be. A full warranty of product and installation covers every piece of our equipment.

Increased Revenue

The key to large sales figures is to increase the customer’s hit rate and purchase amount. Often, a golfer will take minutes to tee the ball and realign their stance. Automatically teeing up the ball increases the hit rate dramatically. This eliminates the wasted time moving around, as well as creating a unique practice session for the customer.

There is also the benefit that you may offer your regular customers; a membership card in denominations as high as $999.99. Our membership card program will increase the average sale amount since the customer is able to buy larger amounts of balls to use over many visits. This float factor can be very high and provides better cash control for the range.

Golfers will hit 30%-40% more balls in less time, increasing revenue per customer, per visit. Maximizing a driving range’s profits is the core to a successful business model. RAS offers a flexible turn key system that is proven to increase revenue while enhancing the customers practice session. With so many years of driving range experience, you can rest assured that you are purchasing the most advanced and reliable equipment available in the industry today.

When you automate your range, you choose to be the best.
