About Us
In 1962, a group of golf enthusiasts in Detroit, Michigan opened the first Pro Golf Discount Store. A store dedicated to offering the best golf equipment and accessories at a low price. Business was slow at first, but as golf’s popularity rose with newcomers Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer, Pro Golf’s sales began to rise. By mid-1975, Pro Golf decided to try its hand at franchising.
Today, Pro Golf has more than 110 retail stores in over 30 states and several countries. With over 40 years of experience, Pro Golf is the oldest, as well as the largest golf retailer in the world. Pro Golf also manufactures its own private label merchandise and works with other manufacturers to design products exclusively for Pro Golf. Pro Golf has been named the #1 Franchisor in the Golf Stores category by Entrepreneur magazine 12 times in the last 15 years. Why Pro Golf?
The future is bright. The golf market is a growing, dynamic $25 billion industry. The aging baby boomer trend is one big factor in a healthy long-term growth for the golf market. Currently, we have identified prime franchise territories, based on local market conditions, which offer significant growth potential.
