- “This event sets the tone for the whole week. We have been able to test new clubs from Callaway, Titleist, Ping, Srixon, Cobra and several others. I really enjoyed testing all the new putters and wedges on the short-game greens. That was my favorite part of the day.” —Jason Loomis, PGA Head Professional, Great River Golf Club, Milford, Connecticut
- “The gates opened at 9 a.m., and our bays were full by 9:05 and have stayed that way all day. Coaches are especially excited to see what we’re doing with our new software. Having the chance to show it to them in person is the perfect way for them to learn about it. We’re excited by what’s going on today.” —Alex Goodman, National Sales Director, Toptracer
- “Demo & Fitting Day features the greatest driving range setup in the world, and we always find new equipment for our members. Links Drinks is just what we were looking for to serve to our members on-course — delicious pre-mixed drinks in a can. It just shows that we always find a diamond in the rough at Demo Day.” —Cathy Edelen, PGA Director of Golf, The Cove Golf Center, Port Charlotte, Florida
- “There’s really great energy this year. There’s a real buzz out here. Our tee sheet is full of appointments, and we have all our fitters out here helping attendees see our full line of equipment. There’s no replacement for swinging it and seeing it when it comes to golf clubs.” —Tom Olsavsky, Vice President of R&D, Cobra Puma Golf
- “It’s nice to see the big guys (manufacturers) back at the Demo & Fitting Day, and it’s nice for all of us to be together again after the pandemic. The Demo Day provides a unique opportunity for our staff to see and test all of the latest clubs in one day, which is something we can’t do at our home club.” —Kendall Palu, PGA General Manager, Scotts Bluff Country Club, Scottsbluff, Nebraska
- “We’ve been busy all day. People have been coming in waves and trying out our new second generation OTTO golf ball fitting system and hearing about our new E12 golf balls. It’s great to see so many people out here, and they’re excited about the state of the business going into the season.” —Elliot Mellow, Golf Ball Marketing Manager, Bridgestone Golf
- “We recommended all of our students in the golf management program come to the Demo & Fitting Day to see the scope of the golf industry. We have between 40 and 50 students here, and we are all seeing what type of equipment is out there to fit different golfers’ games. This is a unique educational opportunity for our students. There is no other opportunity like this in golf, and it’s a beautiful day. —Brian Hughes, PGA Master Professional, Keiser University College of Golf, West Palm Beach, Florida
