It’s been an exciting summer at the USGA! Throughout the year, we’ve been collecting your feedback and making improvements to DEACON to better your experience. As summer winds down, we wanted to let you know about a couple of new and exciting features we added to DEACON.
 
In our latest feature enhancement, we’ve significantly improved the flexibility to enter multiple applications across different surfaces and holes at one time. This enhancement will reduce the amount of time needed to enter applications – leading to increased productivity and efficiency while using DEACON. We’ve also added the ability to track the maintenance of your practice areas. 

Practice Areas

Now you can add your practice areas and practice area maintenance to your DEACON interface. During onboarding, we can help you draw in your practice areas – including practice putting greens, driving ranges or practice bunkers. Then you’ll be able to track your maintenance of these highly visible and heavily used areas.

Multiple Surfaces and Applications

Product applications on the golf course are often made across multiple playing surfaces and holes. We have increased the flexibility in data entry to help you account for applications across multiple holes and surfaces at one time. On the dropdown you can select the hole, surface type and the application that goes across those areas.
