Friday
“I haven’t been to the Show for a few years. I love seeing the new technology and there’s tons of education offered. And there’s just something about meeting someone face to face. It’s always great to run into old friends and meet new friends.”
“It’s always great to come down here and be able to see what's new in one place. We saw a lot of great new things that we're going to take back to our members.
“The PGA Show is an amazing networking opportunity for everybody. It’s great to see friends that you don’t normally see on a day-to-day basis.”
“I thought the club manufacturers had the biggest and the best displays. Really impressive.”
“Every year, the PGA Show is the best networking event there is.”
“I keep coming back to the PGA show for love of the game.”
“This has been our most appointment-driven PGA Show to date. Being in The Retreat Section is great for us. We see people looking for lifestyle brands such as Rhone Golf for their shops.”
Thursday
“It’s cool to come and see how amazing and how big the industry really is at the PGA Show.”
“There are so many golf companies here; it’s bigger than it has ever been. I'm seeing lots of newer brands like A. Putnam, and I’m always looking to rotate women’s brands into my shop for more variety, and this is a great place to discover them.”
“The PGA Show is back in full strength. There is so much variety now. Wow!”
“There is such a great vibe from all the people here. There is so much excitement for this year’s Show.”
“It sure takes a lot more than one day to see everything now. The PGA Show is truly one of a kind.”
Wednesday
“I’m moving this year into more women’s lifestyle pieces – more dresses than performance pieces. We’re also looking for bamboo fabrics, given the humidity and gnats in our area.”
“My No. 1 priority is finding products leading into the Presidents Cup at Medinah. I brought seven staff members, and we all have different vendors to see. It’s about dividing and conquering.”
“We come to the PGA Show looking for innovative products and unique merchandise that add value to our golf shop and enhance the experience for our members.”
“We’re looking for anything new and eye-catching that can help us with the quantities we’re doing. Seeing new trends is the best part of being at the Show – what’s different, trending and what we haven’t seen in our area.”
“We’re looking at putting an artificial turf line in our driving range and autonomous range pickers. I think with any of those larger purchases, we’re going to want to see it in action. The PGA Show is a good way to see multiple things all in the same place.”
“We’re always looking for accessories – niche items that have a small footprint to bring in and turn quickly. And we’re looking for a great women’s brand. Last year, we found Varley and it was a home run.”
“This year, we are leaving more time to explore, look for new vendors. We’re always looking for that one brand that will be a home run. In men’s apparel, we know what the staples are, but women’s apparel is a moving target.”
Tuesday
“Demo Day gives us a chance to see all of the latest new technology.”
“It’s always a fun experience to come and see some of the new technology that’s launched. We’re expanding our driving range and doing some technology on our range, so it’s good to see a few of those vendors. It's always good to be able to test a little bit of the product that we haven’t seen yet that’s coming out in 2026.”
“It’s cool to see all the new products with your own eyes instead of seeing a picture of it. That’s what I like about Demo Day. It may be too cold to really hit anything, but I like just putting my hands on it.”
“It’s such a good mix this year. I love seeing all of the great products. Based on this positive vibe, I am very optimistic that the game of golf will continue its recent success here in the U.S. and globally this year.”
“I’ve made one lap and I already found one product I was specifically searching for, junior golf clubs that adjust as juniors grow, from Upswing Golf. After a cup of coffee, I’m heading back out for another round.”
“Demo Day is a great opportunity to share ideas and connect with leaders in the industry.”
“It’s my first time ever here. It’s awe inspiring.”
“It’s great to look around and see the new vendors. To take part in the membership and networking, it’s valuable.”
