I’m writing this from Florida. No, I’m not involved in the political primary going on down here … though I was in SC last week when the primary was happening there, too … sort of weird being constantly bombarded with political ads everywhere I go …
On a much nicer note, I’ve been in Orlando for the Merchandiser’s Convention and the PGA Show.
This has been the liveliest show since 9/11. Something good is going on and I think I know what it is – it’s youth.
People in their 20’s and 30’s are running golf companies and bringing an energy and excitement that has been much needed.
Unlike the worn-out political rhetoric that I’ve been listening to – these kids are bringing fresh ideas, enthusiasm, and confidence to the golf business.
I can’t wait to show you what we’ve bought for the Pro Shop … we’re plugging into this youthful resurgence … I can feel it’s going to be a great year.
Cheers,
Tom Abts
