I developed Rástímar.is to respond to a real need within the Icelandic golf community that emerged alongside the sport’s rapid growing pains. The website addresses the lack of centralized and reliable information by bringing together, in one place, details about golf simulators, courses, clubs, and PGA golf instructors through a simple and user-friendly interface. It helps golfers find available tee times for both courses and simulators, as well as instructors suited to their needs.
The project has received a very positive response from golfers, golf clubs, and organizations. Over the past year, the site recorded hundreds of thousands of visits and tens of thousands of users. In addition, the Icelandic Golf Association showed strong interest in the initiative and requested a collaboration on the continued development of the project.
