SAN DIEGO, CA – April 3, 2024 – iGolf is excited to partner with HundredOut, a golf technology, lifestyle, and entertainment brand built around making golf more social, competitive, and memorable. Through the partnership, iGolf’s global GPS course database and mapping technology will support the HundredOut app across iOS, Android, and Apple Watch, providing accurate course intelligence for an experience that combines GPS, scoring, games, challenges, and social connection.
Through the partnership, HundredOut will integrate iGolf’s comprehensive GPS course database into its platform, providing the course intelligence behind its GPS yardages, shot tracking, and other location-aware features. With iGolf’s database covering more than 40,000 mapped golf courses across 177 countries, including detailed hole layouts, green mapping, and geospatial information, HundredOut users will have access to reliable course information whether they are playing their local municipal course or traveling to a bucket-list golf destination.
HundredOut stands out by building its technology around the experiences that make golfers want to play together. The app combines GPS yardages to the front, middle, and back of greens with interactive scoring, a custom handicap system, shot tracking, leaderboards, social sharing, and a growing collection of golf games, side bets, and customizable challenges. The brand extends that philosophy beyond the app through apparel, gear, and inclusive golf events designed to celebrate the social and competitive culture surrounding the game.
That philosophy traces back to a round on a Los Angeles municipal course in 2004, when a simple response to a question about distance—“hunerd out”—became the inspiration for a brand centered around the 100-yard marker and the friendships, competition, and memorable moments created on a golf course. Two decades later, HundredOut has developed that idea into a broader golf platform spanning technology, lifestyle, and entertainment.
“Golf technology doesn’t always have to be about shaving another fraction of a stroke off your handicap,” said Ryan Kimberling, Vice President of Sales & Strategy at iGolf. “HundredOut understands that a huge part of why people play golf is the competition, friendships, stories, and moments that happen during a round. They’ve built technology around making those experiences even more engaging, and we’re excited for iGolf’s course intelligence to provide the GPS foundation behind it.”
