ProLink Solutions, a wholly-owned subsidiary of ProLink Holdings Corp. (OTC Bulletin Board: PLKH - News) and the world's leading provider of Global Positioning Satellite ("GPS") golf course management systems and digital out-of-home on-course advertising, today announced that Woodlake Golf Club (San Antonio, Tex.) now features the ProLink Solutions GPS system used at many of the world's most famous golf courses and plans to participate in ProLink's exclusive national advertising opportunity. Woodlake boasts an impressive history dating to its opening in 1972. The Desmond Muirhead-designed course was the site of Ben Crenshaw's first professional victory, the 1973 Texas Open. Woodlake has also hosted USGA qualifying for events including the U.S. Amateur, U.S. Mid-Amateur and U.S. Public Links Championship. Narrow fairways, ever-present hazards and well-guarded greens require precise shotmaking to score well at Woodlake.

"Woodlake's golfers really appreciate the assistance they get from ProLink GPS, which gives them accurate yardages and hole descriptions and speeds up play," said John Clay, President and General Manager at Woodlake Golf Club. "Guests also like the food-and-beverage ordering feature, which is a great tool on the management side as well. We're excited to add the ProLink system to our amenities and expect an excellent return on the investment."

"Woodlake holds a proud place in San Antonio's rich golf history, and we are honored to call the club a trusted partner," said Lawrence D. Bain, CEO of ProLink Solutions. "Courses with ProLink GPS benefit on many levels, from enhanced guest satisfaction to significant revenue increases. And every high- profile course added to ProLink's roster, such as Woodlake Golf Club, gives our advertising partners broader reach and greater access to well-heeled golfers."

With ProLink's patented, 10.4" high-resolution color screen -- the industry's largest -- Woodlake's cart-mounted units display dynamic, easy-to-read graphics including distances to the pin and hazards, pro tips, pace-of-play timer and radial arc for cart-path-only holes. Golfers at Woodlake will also be able to order food and beverage items with a touch of a button on the ProLink screen.

New 3M Locator Is Optimized For Finding Pipe
Austin TX (SPX) Feb 22, 2008
Finding underground pipes just got easier. The new 3M Dynatel Advanced Pipe/Cable Locator 2220M harnesses the time-tested technology of other Dynatel locators but is specially designed to locate underground pipes simply and accurately. The easy-to-use locator is rugged enough to stand up to the worst field conditions, yet is highly sensitive to deliver accurate results. The locator's two active trace frequencies, 8 kHz and 82 kHz, can be used for most underground locating applications as its enhanced inductive capability provides the maximum allowed induction power. In addition, the receiver can detect passive power (50/60Hz) and radio (15k-30kHz) for damage avoidance as well as remote transmitters such as Sondes and pipeline inspection cameras. The operator can choose the frequency best suited for the situation, allowing maximum performance.
