Cosmic Disc Golf experiment in Louisville, Ky

by jasonsmith on September 4, 2013

NIGHT DISC GOLF:

This is our first cosmic black light glow test with our lights for disc golf. We went out to Charlie Vettiner Disc golf Park here is Louisville (disc golf review) (Youtube walk through) and lit up the 12th hole just as a test to see how our night lights would glow everyone out. It turned out to be a kind of neon disc golf fashion shoot. Things looked pretty good. Next week we are off to shoot neon action shots of players throwing and hitting for the glow basket for an event poster and video. Our goal is to put on a neon night disc golf tournament in early November. Stay tuned or contact the Louisville Disc Golf Club to get on the list. The more players we get, the more holes we can light up.

WHY IS THE GLOWV1 NIGHT GOLF BALL #1 FOR FEEL AND DISTANCE

We started with a solid two piece golf ball construction made with a tour quality core that has a powerful photoactive suralyn skin wrapped around it. This creates the first tour distance night golf ball that out performed any and all light stick golf balls and LED golf balls. We then went one more key step by inventing a UV ball charger that takes your night golf ball to the next level.

It’s called the GlowCharger. It’s a coffee cup sized UV ball charger that nukes the ball in 360 degrees of photo absorbing UV light. After about a minute you have a night golf ball that glows like an LED for a good 12 minutes and gives a very visible afterglow for hours.

Our photoactive glow skin gives the ball a bright streak as it shoots down the fairway, while providing a nice soft feel off the clubface. This can be very important when you might be playing in the fall light that can be a bit cool and hard on the hands.

The GlowV1 and GlowCharger system can be purchased together or in bulk for special glow golf events and night golf tournaments

HOW TO SET UP A NIGHT GOLF OR GLOW IN THE DARK EVENT

There are a bunch of ways to set up a great event. Below we break it down to golf balls, tee box, fairway and golf green lighting.

– BALLS – A good night golf or glow golf event starts with the balls. You want to offer your players a selection of balls to pick from. We offer both the GlowV1 and Glowcharger system as well as the Night Eagle LED golf ball. This gives players a choice of whether they want distance or brightness.

– CART LIGHTING & HEAD LAMPS – You want a bright tee box and green. This can be accomplished with head lamps players bring or you can provide. Golf carts with headlamps are also a great way to light up a player hitting on the fairway. Headlamps also help players as they walk through uneven terrain.

– TEE BOX LIGHTING – Creating a bright tee box experience where players walk or drive up and can see the next hole clearly is a big plus. We use the glowgear rechargeable tee box markers to delineate the tee line.

– FAIRWAY LIGHTING – Reusable pin markers are very inexpensive and come in dozen packs of different colors. We generally drive down the fairway putting in markers every 10yds to create a straight clean line from tee box to pin flag.

– GREEN AND PIN LIGHTING – Lighting up your green can be as simple as putting in a glowing pin flag to putting out rechargeable perimeter lighting to really max out your green.

– TARGET LIGHTING – Since we make patented giant glowing interactive driving range and golf targets we couldn’t help telling you about how great target night golf can be. Imagine replacing the 4″ cup with a 12 – 30ft interactive golf target. Now, when you hit the target on the fly you get a bonus stroke. This means you can get a zero on every hole. How cool is that! Ask us if there is a course in your area so your club can try this out.

WHAT MAKES THE BEST TWILIGHT GOLF BALLS

Neon covered golf balls are ok if you are playing in flat Arizona. If you live anywhere there is overcast or normal clouds, neon covered balls really don’t reflect any light. The best solution is a ball like the GV1 that has an active, live skin that gives the ball it’s own internal glow. Unlike neon coated balls, the GV1 glows from within so the darker it gets as twilight approaches the brighter and more visible your GV1 night golf ball will become. So now you won’t lose your ball in the weeds when there are clouds overhead and it gets dark fast. The GV1 will punch through the half light handly.

The second reason the photoactive skin of the GV1 makes it perfect for twilight golf is that it has a performance daytime core so it flies one to one with your favorite daytime ball. As a result you can switch to your balls and keep hitting your same yardages. How great is that.

We then add the UV Glowcharger that nukes your ball so there is no compromise on ball performance, distance or feel as the sun goes down. That’s twilight golf!

HOW TO MAKE A PERFORMANCE GLOW IN THE DARK GOLF BALL

Glow in the dark golf balls come in several types from clear glow stick balls that are like hitting rocks to LED golf balls that glow brightly but have a battery as a core, to Photoluminescent rechargeable night golf balls like the GV1. Each have different performance parameters and values.

Glow stick golf balls came out years ago. They are a single injected molded piece of plastic with a hole going through the middle. They are cheap and you get what you pay for. They hit like a rock and they hit at least 3 clubs short of even an LED golf ball

LED Night Golf balls have come a long way in the last few years. The one we suggest is the Night Eagle or Spectrum. They have the softest core of all the LED glow balls but they still cannot match the performance of a daytime golf ball or the new GV1 Series of two piece night golf balls.

Two piece night golf balls like the GV1 – If you are looking for the best GDG that performs like your favorite daytime golf ball, the GlowV1 surpasses all overs in distance off the tee, feel and control. This two piece performance golf ball combines a tour quality core with a super bright suryln skin. As a result the ball flies as well as your favorite daytime ball. Now you can play twilight golf with a ball that will get more visible the darker it gets. That is revolutionary. What a two piece night golf ball does is allow you to keep playing your best shots even when the sun begins to go down

Super charge your GDG with the UV GlowCharger. This is a night golf ball charger that fits in your coffee cup holder on your cart. It has 2 Watts of UV light blasing the golf ball in a 360 bath of glow that gives it a longer glow life while glowing it out uniformaly. The best part about the GlowV1 and GlowCharger system are that the balls are infinitely rechargeable.

WHAT ARE THE BEST RECHARGEABLE NIGHT GOLF BALLS

That’s a trick question. Of course it’s the GlowV1 and Glowcharger combo. If you are looking for a golf ball that will never run out of glow power the best solution is the combo of the GlowCharger and Glv1 night golf ball. By placing the GV1 in the glow chamber for 30 seconds to 1 minute you bathe the golf ball in 360 degrees of intense UV light. This maximizes the glow in the golf balls skin. To make the GV1 the brightest and longest golf ball possible we begin with creating a performance golf ball that can stand up to the best daytime golf balls on the market. We begin with a 90 compression performance core. We then wrap this in a photoactive surlyn polyurethane skin that can absorb amazing amounts of light. The combo of a live core and performance glow skin creates a night golf ball that flies like your daytime golf ball but glows deep into the night so you can never lose a ball at twilight again and you will win your night golf tournament by a mile.

WHAT IS GREAT ABOUT NIGHT GOLF

When you play golf at night there is a completely different vibe and feel to the game. You have your buddies around with flashlights and head lamps and you watch the balls streak through the sky like bottle rockets. With to days state of the art night golf balls you can have the same hitting and distance experience as playing in the day and that makes playing in the evening a lot more fun.

Hitting to a lit green is a blast. Hitting to a 30ft target green is even more fun. Lighting up and activating your green is a big part of what makes night golf fun to do. So choose a bright pin flag and perimeter lighting or opts to have us come put on a target night golf event with giant inflatable targets. We love to do it.

HOW TO WIN YOUR NIGHT GOLF TOURNAMENT

It starts with being a half decent golfer. Then add good clubs and cap it off with the best night golf ball on the market. You can go for a super bright LED that insures you will never lose your ball in the dark. But it you want to dial in your daytime game and hit your daytime yardages, the two piece GV1 photolum ball is what you want. Begin with a performance two piece ball design that sports a 90 compression core. Then wrap it in a photoactive suralyn skin. Then drop it in the UV GlowCharger so it can bath in 360 degrees of UV light that maxes out the skins glow. Now you have a tour quality golf ball that will stay bright for up to 12 minutes and keep glowing until the morning.

By using the GV1 and GC system, you get daytime distance control, soft feel off the club face, real spin all packed into a ball that cuts through the night like an LED and out performs flash light UV chargers hands down. Now go out there and stripe it like it was noon.

WHAT MAKES THE GLOWV1 THE BRIGHTEST AND BEST PERFORMING NIGHT GOLF BALL

The GlowV1 is hands down the brightest ball in night golf first because of our photoactive formula we put in the skin and second because of the new GlowCharger UV ball charging system. It’s packed with 360 degrees of UV light that bathe your ball with all the glow it needs for a hole in just a minute or two. That’s amazing. Without the Glowcharger you would need to use a flashlight and that does not get deep into the ball the way a 360 light chamber can. It’s also leaves spots.

WHAT MAKES THE GlowV1 A RECHARGEABLE NIGHT GOLF BALL

By packing the skin with our photoactive glow pigment, we are able to deliver a performance two piece golf ball where the skin can be activated to glow with a UV light source. We recommend the GlowCharger UV ball charger because of it’s high watt output and 360 glow. What makes the ball rechargeable is the chemistry of our glow pigment does not break down over time. You will be able to reglow your ball hundreds of times. In fact, you will be able to glow out your ball far longer than the ball will most likely last. That is how rechargeable our glow skin actually is.

WHY IS THE Glow V1 IS THE LONGEST NIGHT GOLF BALL

It is the best because we put in the time to create a ball that flies as long as your best daytime golf ball. That means it’s actually a real golf ball with the added benefit of being a super cool glow skin. It’s a ball with a performance core and skin that performs as well during the day and it does at night. More importantly it plays one to one with your daytime golf ball so when it gets to twilight you can switch over the the GV1 and keep playing your same yardages. No need to club up the way you have to with an LED golf ball.

Unlike LED balls that have a battery inside, GlowV1 photoluminescence allows us to put a full compression, tour quality core inside for a long, soft feel with all the distance of an ‘active’ core. This is something a battery centered core cannot provide.

WHY MAKE A TWO PIECE BALL FOR TWILIGHT GOLF

The value to having two piece performance night ball is so it can hit one to one with your favorite daytime golf ball. You want this so that when it becomes twilight you don’t lose your favorite ball in the half light. Also so that you don’t need to either quit playing or switch to an LED golf ball that will cause you to club up and hit harder shots so as to compensate for an LED night golf ball. With the GlowCharger and GV1 system, you will never lose another ball during twilight or early morning play.
