August rounds were slightly down nationwide compared to last year’s summer surges, as expected. See how much of a decline there was from 2020.
NGF's recent survey of Core golfers indicated 73% recalled Tee It Forward, but a much smaller percentage had actually moved up in recent years. Here's what they found, and what's keeping others from moving forward a tee.
Based on research from the NGF’s definitive international facility database, the R&A's biennial Golf Around the World Report is back and counts golf courses in 206 of the world’s 251 countries -- with more than 38,000 courses globally.
NGF's database team has seen a significant drop in a particular supply-based area during the first half of 2021. Could this be the year golf course supply in the U.S. levels out?
The 2021 first-half momentum for golf equipment sales carries over from second half of 2020. Is it better than 2019?
More than three-quarters of Core golfers have at least one golf-specific app on their phone, a figure that's risen steadily over the past decade. It speaks to the evolution of golf as well as the effort to enhance the golf experience for an ever-connected segment of consumers.
App use is becoming prevalent in all walks of life, including the golf world. There are now hundreds of golf-centric apps available and usage continues to climb.
