“We are honored to have Brian Golden on our team. He brings a wealth of knowledge and experience and will be a key member of our executive team,” said Richard Edmonson, CEO, SkyGolf, LLC.
In his new role, Golden will be responsible for working on sales and marketing initiatives, as well as building an International distribution network for the SkyCaddie line of products.
“The SkyCaddie allows golfers to play better, faster, and have more fun! Its good for the game, just like Softspikes,” said Golden. “Thats what drew me to the company. All you have to do is play golf with a SkyCaddie unit once, and youll never want to play without it again.”
