If you are an avid follower of golf related news on the social media, you would have come across the many pictures from the PGA Merchandise show happening right now in Orlando, Florida.
What is the PGA Merchandise show?
As the name suggests, it's where everything new in golf (off the course) happens.
In a nutshell :-
"The PGA Merchandise Show plays host to the biggest week of golf
business January 20 – 23, 2015—4 days of your Ultimate Golf Experience
with:
- 1,100+ interactive exhibits by leading golf companies and brands
- Over 400,000 Square Feet of Exhibit Space
- More than 40,000 of the most important people in golf
- Representation from all 50 U.S. states and 74 countries
- LIVE Golf Channel Coverage
The Show serves as a global platform for PGA Professionals, General
Managers, Superintendents, Owners, and Industry Leaders to form a
dynamic community where they visit with current vendors, discover new
products, make purchases for the year ahead, and network with industry
peers.
The PGA Merchandise Show is organized by PGA Worldwide Golf
Exhibitions in partnership with The PGA of America, Experts in the Game
and Business of Golf."

All you need to know about the PGA Merchandise show (1,100+ interactive exhibits spread across over 400,000 square feet of exhibition space) and the exhibitors here and here.
But before I get ahead of myself, the PGA Merchandise show isn't open to the public. So you need to be either a international PGA member, or golf industry professional (or an invited guest) amongst others to get in.
In case you are wondering, that's an indoor hitting bay.
For those of us who can't even buy a ticket to get in, head over to Golf Digest's live blog and coverage on what's new and going on , here.
*SIGH!
