Golf retailers

Golf retailers sell golf clubs, golf apparel and shoes, and golf accessories. They are sometimes called off-course shops if not located on a golf course. National golf retailers include Dick's Sporting Goods, Golfsmith, Golf Galaxy (owned by Dick's), Worldwide Golf Shops, and PGA superstores.

The industry has suffered in the last decade. Dick's has scaled back its golf presence in its stores, Golf Galaxy has closed numerous stores, and one large retailer, Edwin Watts, has gone out of business. There are a few regional golf retail stores that have developed a niche in club fitting that have done well: these include Miles of Golf in Ann Arbor, Michigan and Cincinnati, Ohio, Cool Clubs (various locations), Hot Stix in Phoenix, Arizona, Haggin Oaks in Sacramento, California, and Austad's Golf based out of Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
