Blending internet buzz factor with solid journalism, GearEffectGolf.com goes live for debut at PGA Merchandise Show
Portland, Ore. (January 20, 2011) – Loaded with timely articles that take readers and forum participants inside the world of pro-line golf equipment, GearEffectGolf.com goes live for PGA Merchandise Show week. The site will feature stylish, accurate news and commentary by a staff of veteran writers plus several fresh new voices in on-line golf tech coverage.
Edited by veteran golf journalist David Gould, the new site is part of the Golf Media Network, already established as a digital media mainstay in golf with its travel-lifestyle site, TheAPosition.com, launched in late 2009. Gould, whose editorial credits include top staff positions at Travel + Leisure Golf and LINKS Magazine, has assembled a formidable staff of contributors to launch and drive GearEffectGolf.com.
Well-regarded journalists Steve Pike, Scott Kramer and Dr. Barry Lotz form a trio of highly knowledgeable “beat” writers formerly from such noted print publications as GOLF Magazine and Golfweek. Ken Van Vechten, Jeff Wallach and Jay Stuller are lifetime journalists with many areas of expertise and an enduring passion for beating balls with new woods and irons in search of the miracle stick every golfer seeks. Glen Rennie and Patrick Kelley are first-class tournament golfers who each come to GearEffectGolf.com with the eye for quality of a true shotmaker. The site will also feature extensive forums where readers can post comments about their own experiences with specific gear and read the comments of other users.
Golf Media Network CEO Bob Senoff, author of the business plan that has fueled rapid growth of TheAPosition.com, also directs and oversees efforts to make GearEffectGolf.com the new standard for golf equipment coverage.
The A Position.com is a network of websites featuring the world’s best golf and travel writers. The term “The A Position” refers to the best place a golfer can land his tee shot. On the web, it refers to the site readers will want to land on for great golf and travel journalism.
