The Great Minnesota Golf Show Preview

Sporting a new location and later date, the Great Minnesota Golf Show opens its doors to the public at noon Friday at the Minneapolis Convention Center and runs through Sunday afternoon. These pictures show what the space looks like before the action starts.

Sharing the Convention Center with the Auto Show, over 80 exhibitors, including the MGA, Minnesota Section PGA, Giants Ridge, the Brainerd Golf Trail, and Madden's Resort, hope to get the season off to a strong start. And with the long-range forecast for next week showing sunny skies and temperatures in the 50s, the timing may be perfect.

Golfers of all ages and abilities will find something to keep their interest and many reasons to spend their money. Some of the newest golf clubs will be available to demo at the range, and one can be fitted for a new set of Pings as well. In addition, some great deals will be available at the many retailers on site.

All MGA members should make a point to stop by the MGA booth to say hi. If you show your GHIN/MGA Handicap Card, you will receive a free gift.

Here's to hoping we have a quick start to a long golf season!

Until next time-
