what's inside the wgs insider
show stoppers
The annual PGA exhibition in Orlando did not disappoint
B
illed as the largest golf industry event of its kind in the
world, the 64th PGA Merchandise Show held at the end of
January in Orlando, Florida, once again did not disap-
point – both in terms of all the new products that were on
display as well as the buzz surrounding some of the
biggest names in professional golf.
When all was said and done, more than 40,000
golf industry professionals from all 50 states and
84 countries were introduced to the newest
products, trends and technology from more than
1,000 golf companies and brands.
Gear that caught my eye included TaylorMade's
2017 M1 and M2 drivers, the new Epic drivers from
Callaway and the latest from Cobra. As always, Titleist made a
big splash with its updated Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf balls. There
was also plenty of excitement around all of the new signings on
the professional tours, such as Tiger with TaylorMade, Michelle
Wie with Callaway and Bubba Watson with Volvik. You can read
about all of this and much more in this edition of the Insider.
But before I let you go, I'd like to thank you the golfer. One of
my big takeaways from the show centered around the fact that
rounds are up because people are playing more golf, which is
having a very positive impact on morale throughout our industry.
And that's because of golfers just like you.
