Welcome:
The Golf Almanac is a publication designed for country club members nationwide as well as an opportunity for local businesses to gain new business with some of the wealthiest clientele in their area. We have set the standard in our industry through relationship building over the past 17 plus years and have earned the endorsement of two past PGA Presidents as well as countless PGA pros nationwide, some of whom write articles for The Almanac. Our aim is twofold. We first look to provide country clubs and their members with quality golf and luxury lifestyle content as well as a business directory to service their needs. Secondly, we provide a venue for local businesses to flourish by exposing their services to this high-end clientele on an annual basis.
The Golf Almanac is an annual publication and is free to all country club members and guests. We service the nation by way of individualized markets throughout the U.S., typically consisting of five clubs per market, on average.
We have a high retention rate, with the majority of our customers returning to grace our pages year after year. Contact us today to fill the category listing for your industry in your area!
My members really enjoy the Golf Almanac magazine. Whether it is a golf destination article, tip from the Pro, or reviews on Golf clubs, it is very informative. Also, having the schedule of all 3 Golf tours keeps you up to date on where they are week to week.

Endorsements
I am glad to see that the Golf Almanac is recognizing the importance of such worthy causes as: Golf 2.0, The Wounded Warrior Golf Program, EAGA and the endeavors of the Philadelphia Section of the PGA. The informative golf tips from our pros along with the travel destinations and PGA tour schedules are an added bonus. This is a great publication that anyone, golfer or not, would enjoy reading.

My good friend, John Carpineta, just handed me a recent copy of your Golf Almanac. I must say I was extremely impressed with its format, and the overall quality of the publication. In my opinion, this is exactly the type of magazine that would appeal to every golfer, especially the Golf Tips articles. I also look forward to reading your bonus articles on such wonderful causes as our Wounded Warriors program, which benefits our veterans. Being a Navy brat, and after meeting Major Dan Rooney this great cause is the one I have chosen to devote my energies to now that I have retired.
