What Makes Golf Different Makes it Great

By ChaseRussell

Whether you’re an avid golfer, a recreational golfer or not a golfer at all, everyone has their own definition of the game. You might think that golf is the greatest game every played, but then again, you may argue that it’s not even a sport.

#GOLFIS All About The People You Play With

#GOLFIS All About The People You Play With

By Travis Richardson

I first started playing the game of golf at a young age. My Dad took me out to play 9-holes at a course in a small town in Kansas. I was hooked. We started playing as many times as our busy schedules would allow, adding my little brother to the mix as well. We were never really competitive, and would never be confused with scratch golfers. Afterwards we could go to my Grandpa’s house for soda and to recap the round, exchanging playful jabs at each over particularly bad shots.

I Won Golf's Greatest Lottery

I Won Golf's Greatest Lottery

By MWeinberger

Okay, I didn’t go into a gas station and buy a scratch-off ticket, and I didn’t even win any money. What I did win this year, however, was something that I have been longing for all of my golfing life. For the first time, after yearly submissions for the lottery, my family finally won practice round tickets to the 2014 Masters. Sure, it wasn’t the actual tournament, but what it was, was truly magnificent. A place almost indescribable tucked away in the small town of Augusta, GA.

5 Tips for City Golfers in Boston

5 Tips for City Golfers in Boston

By Kris Hart

Being a Boston public golfer is tough. If you have ever searched for golf in Boston, you will find the majority of the courses close to the city are private, there are only a few public courses accessible by public transportation, it is difficult to find where to get a lesson and getting to the closest range will take 20+ minutes with no traffic. What should you do?

An Ode to My High School Golf Coach

An Ode to My High School Golf Coach

By Nextgengolf

It's easy to take golf for granted when you we are young. The challenges--time, money, friends to play with--that now make just getting out to the course difficult, never even crossed my mind as a high school golfer who was continuously in the moment of playing golf freely for the love of the game.

NCCGA President Interns for the World Golf Foundation, Golf 20/20

By ChaseRussell

 

 

 

 

 

 

For those who don’t play the game, golf is a highly exclusive society of privileged people who earn six-figure salaries and conduct business meetings on the course. For those who do play golf, it’s just funny how people could think that. This summer, I will be working with Steve Mona, CEO of the World Golf Foundation, to promote the #Fun of golf through social media and redefine the way people look at the game.

Millennial Golf Perspective at National Golf Day

Millennial Golf Perspective at National Golf Day

By Nextgengolf

Golf struggles to shed it's perception as a game for the privileged elite. Ask the random person what comes to mind when they think of golf, you're likely to hear "white, exclusive, old, and expensive." Such stereotypes limit the game's growth not only from prospective golfers who decide not to take it up, but also from lawmakers who until recently, were not made aware of the myriad of economic and social benefits golf provides. Enter We Are Golf, an industry coalition geared towards communicating golf's benefits to Congressional leaders with it's pinnacle, National Golf Day, happening next week on May 21st.

State Traditions Brand Ambassador: Kimberly Willoughby

By Nextgengolf

Millennials (18-34 year-olds) have a strong desire to associate with genuine brands that have great customer service and reflect their own values. State Traditions--the National Attire Partner of Nextgengolf & NCCGA--epitomizes this modern brand ethos with genuine state-centric logos and company Founders who represent the brand themselves in their daily lives. I had the opportunity to chat with Kimberly Willoughby, a FSU brand ambassador, whose passion for #StateTraditions helped me understand why so many college students chose to associate themselves with this classy, unique, and genuine brand.
