Golf Industry US: Road to recovery

It’s been a tough couple of years for the golf industry. Equipment sales, at least in the US, are reported to be down compared to 2007 and participation numbers haven’t been too healthy either. But the message that golf may at last have turned the corner rang out clearly at the recent PGA Merchandise Show, in Orlando, Florida, where many of the leading brands were exhibiting. With a national unemployment rate reaching 10% by December 2009, and nearly 16 million Americans out of work, predictably, it has been a fairly miserable year all round. And though golf has, historically, been in the enviable position of being among the last industries to arrive at the point of recession but one of the first out, it would be wildly inaccurate to say the game hasn’t suffered.
