Phigolf Aims to Make Home Golf Simulators More Accessible

There is no question that at-home golf simulators are exploding in popularity. A rise in simulator technology, coupled with a boost from those of us stuck indoors during the pandemic, has brought demand from golfers all over the world.

One brand with a unique offering in this space is Phigolf. The Phigolf 2 and World Tour edition home simulators allow golfers to play in a video game-style setting without the need for traditional golf equipment or an expensive installation. Both simulators are among the most affordable golf simulator products on the market, giving golfers better access to the fun of simulator golf.

Because of that, Phigolf has built a community of more than 150,000 golfers and is becoming one of the more intriguing simulator brands to follow.

What is Phigolf?

Phigolf is a brand within the South Korea-based PhiNetworks company. PhiNetworks was founded in 2008 by Young Hun Kim, who came into the golf industry with a background in IT. He is obsessed with golf and started the company in hopes of creating influential golf technology. 

PhiNetworks started with a focus on distance measurement and voice caddie apps, launching the Golf Navi product in 2013. Golf Navi is a GPS-powered automatic golf navigation app that supports smartwatches and smartphones. The app provides distance measurement, altitude and a green view. In 2015, PhiNetworks became a premium partner of Samsung, developing and providing Golf Navi for Samsung users.
