Portland Golf Show Roundup
With nearly 8,000 patrons streaming through the doors, I didn't talk to a single exhibitor that wasn't happy with the show. And, with everyone walking around with two free rounds of golf in their hands, all those who paid to get into the show were happy, too.
As with any golf show, you could find the usual assortment of manufacturers with demo clubs for all to try, the latest in golf gadgetry and even several skills challenges for you to compete in. This show, though, had a great 'clubhouse' area that featured daily Texas Hold'em tournaments and pool tournaments.
If I was asked to pick one thing that surprised me, I would say it was the success of the Clicgear Golf Cart. It was named 'Best New Product' at the 2007 PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando, but it looked like any other push cart. Until you got a chance to see how quickly and easily it broke down, you wouldn't be too impressed. But, hundreds of people got an up-close look at them and walked out of the show with them. Impressive.
I'd like to thank everyone who made it to the show. We look forward to seeing you and all our other great readers out on the links this year!
