Power Tee, the leading provider of automated teeing systems, has released results from one of its installations in the UK that shows how its technology has significantly boosted the usage of its TrackMan-powered driving range.
At Hensol Golf Academy, which is located a few miles west of Cardiff, the combination of TrackMan Range and Power Tee has helped create a premium practice environment while driving significant increases in range usage and customer engagement.
One of South Wales’ leading practice facilities, Hensol boasts a 19-bay driving range, PGA-qualified coaches, a custom fitting centre, pro shop and an indoor simulator.
With TrackMan providing golfers with detailed performance data and Power Tee automatically teeing the ball for every shot, the two technologies work together to create a more seamless practice experience.
The impact can be seen in Hensol’s TrackMan usage figures. Comparing October–December 2024, prior to the Power Tee installation, with the same period in 2025, after installation, the academy recorded substantial increases across every tracked metric.
• Balls tracked increased by 25%
• TrackMan app strokes increased 29.4%
• TrackMan logins rose 31.9%
• Strokes per bay grew 24.3%
• App strokes per bay soared 31%
• Strokes per session were up 11.9%
The increase in TrackMan activity suggests that golfers were engaging more deeply with the technology as well as hitting more shots during their sessions.
TrackMan gives golfers the data and feedback to understand their performance, while Power Tee complements that technology by getting the next ball into position. Instead of stopping to manually position a ball after every shot, golfers can maintain a more consistent rhythm throughout their practice session.
The result is a combination of technology, convenience and continuity that allows golfers to spend more of their time actually hitting shots and engaging with their performance data.
Hensol Golf Academy co-owner and PGA Head Professional Aled Griffiths said the decision to install Power Tee has had a significant impact on the facility. “Choosing to install Power Tee has been one of the best decisions we’ve made for the driving range,” he said. “Combined with TrackMan, it’s transformed the overall practice experience for our customers. while also
