The PGA Show resumes next week as a face-to-face affair in Orlando after being a virtual event a year ago.
It starts on Tuesday at the PGA Show Demo and Fitting Day at Orange County National, followed by three days of exhibits, education seminars and conferences and networking events at the Orange County Convention Center.
Organizers are making efforts to prevent the spread of Covid-19, including the requirement for all individuals to wear approved face coverings while indoors and increased sanitization and hygiene stations. For a better idea, click here.
However, Covid continues to evolve quickly, with its more recent variant, Omicron, spreading quickly around the globe, pushing hospitals to and beyond their limits and forcing travel restrictions that would make many decide not to cross international borders at this time.
With that in mind, the GNN Poll is focused on what your final decision is about going to the show. Are you going? Did you even plan to go? Did you plan on going and then change your mind due to the spread of Omicron and the travel restrictions that have gone along with it?
That’s the question in this week’s poll.

With Titleist, Callaway, Taylormade and Ping as “no-shows’ on Tuesday demo day and not exhibiting in the Convention Hall, combined with no presentations on the PGA Main Exhibition Stage, it is hard to imagine that the show will create great value for the costs incurred. The normal 40,000 in attendance is likely to be about 20,000. It may feel more like a 50-year class high school reunion where you ask, “Who died since the last time we got together.”
