As per tradition, thousands of PGA of America Golf Professionals and golf industry professionals will officially tee off PGA Show Week Tuesday at the 2025 PGA Show Demo Day at Orange County National Golf Center’s 42-acre practice facility on Tuesday, Jan. 21.
The world’s largest professional outdoor Demo Day will give attendees a golden opportunity to test and evaluate the latest products from more than 70 golf manufacturers, attend high-level teaching-coaching workshops and special events, and experience new event programming in health and wellness, club fitting and golf range operations.
The 2025 PGA Show Demo Day is organized by PGA Golf Exhibitions and PGA Magazine, and presented by Antigua, Clubhouse Events, E-Z-GO, FlagD, Oakley, Uneekor and Wittek Golf.
Several new features such as The Turn presented by Bar Convent Brooklyn, a new range-side terrace with live music, local breweries, food trucks and ample seating to network with friends over food and beverages, have been added to the huge, circular driving range at Orange County National to create a memorable 2025 event. The day-long Demo Day is reserved for PGA of America Golf Professionals and journalists from 9 a.m. to noon on Tuesday, with other PGA Show registered industry professionals joining the event through 5 p.m.
“We never miss Demo Day – it’s always our first major event during PGA Show Week,” said Andrew Brewer, PGA Director of Instruction at Bayville Golf Club in Virginia Beach, Virginia. “The opportunity to hit all the latest clubs and see what’s new under one roof is always beneficial. There is nothing else like the PGA Show Demo Day as far as scope and size. I always pick up some good teaching tips from the coaching presentations. All in all, the Demo Day is very productive.”
Golf’s most recognizable equipment and technology brands, including Bridgestone Golf, Callaway Golf, Cobra Golf, FlightScope, Full Swing Golf, Mizuno, Ping, Srixon/Cleveland Golf, Toptracer, Titleist, XXIO and many others will be among more than 70 companies offering demonstrations and testing of their latest products. This year’s Demo Day also offers a large vendor village called the Discovery Zone and a Demo Day test track for golf car and vehicle testing.
The 2025 PGA Show Demo Day also will feature several special presentations, demonstrations and appearances by golf personalities/celebrities. For example, Titleist will host a Vokey Design Wedge Presentation at 10 a.m. on the large practice green at Orange County National featuring Titleist Director of Wedge Relations Aaron Dill and Titleist Director of Marketing for Vokey Wedges Corey Gerrard, as the pair shares their expertise from 20 years of working with some of the greatest wedge players in the world on the PGA TOUR.
“When it comes to the short game, golf professionals must be the equipment expert, technique expert, and fitting expert, advising their students in one of the most important scoring opportunities in the game,” said Dill, who will help PGA of America Golf Professionals learn how to fit members and customers with wedges to enhance short-game performance.
Cobra Puma will again have a large presence at Demo Day, with former LPGA Tour player and model Blair O’Neal joining two-time World Long Drive champion Kyle Berkshire to stage special demonstrations and clinics while signing autographs and promoting the new Cobra DS-Adapt clubs.
Leading PGA of America club fitting experts will be available at the “Club Fitting Genius Bar” to share best practices on ball and club fitting with practical applications demonstrated at dedicated hitting bays throughout the PGA Show Demo Day demonstration and testing area.
The Golf Range Association of America also will share best practices on range operations and new entertainment activations for range operators while having GRAA award winners present to answer range-related questions throughout the day.
