I cordially invite you to join me and esteemed colleague Stuart Lindsay for our 21st consecutive annual “State of the Industry” (SoI) presentation during the 2024 PGA Merchandise Show in the Orange County Convention Center. This year’s discussion will once again be conducted in the Media Center on the upper level of the OCC and below are the details:
- Date: Thu 1/25/24
- Time: 1:30-3:00PM EST
- Room: 312A
We will also once again “broadcast” the presentation via GotoWebinar for those who won’t be attending the show. That recording, once completed, will be part of the SoI deliverables package for our Publications Members and purchasers of the individual SoI for later, on-demand viewing by any number of people in their organization. We’re awaiting confirmation that the PGA will once again award 1 educational credit for attending members who provide their member number.
We’ll once again be using the web for self-registration to the event and you’ll get a follow-up email after the New Year with details on how to sign up for the experience of your choice, in-person or remote.
For those attending the Golf Business Conference earlier in the week, we didn’t get an invite this year to do a “preview” so you’re just going to have to either stick around until Thursday, watch it remotely (if you’re headed home) or buy the report to get all the positive news in this year’s version (we’ve already started compiling the results). For owner/operators, the SoI is part of the Golf Market Research Center (GMRC) suite which is your best “play” and you can sign up for that at any time.
As I foreshadowed in the December Pellucid Perspective, records will fall in ’23 on Golf Revenue, Rounds and Rate; it’ll be like Woodstock, you’re going to want to be able to look back and tell your kids “I was there when Jim and Stuart said primarily positive things!”

Jim Koppenhaver
