GolfTraxx makes no claim of ownership to the flyover videos presented here. These are all YouTube & Vimeo embedded videos, none of which exist of the GolfTraxx website. The narration added by GolfTraxx to some flyovers is NOT embedded in the video, but rather played simultaneously. GolfTraxx can add narration for your course flyovers and/or supply content pages for your site. The feedback we have received is that the narration makes the silent videos more fun to watch and interesting.
