National Golf Foundation

The mission of the National Golf Foundation is to foster the growth and economic vitality of golf. We accomplish this by providing golf business research, information and consulting services to people, companies and organizations throughout the world involved in the business of golf.

The National Golf Foundation was formed in 1936 by six golf equipment manufacturers that were interested in reinvigorating the game during the height of the depression. The NGF pursues the same interest today with the help of almost 6,000 corporate and facility members that represent every segment of the U.S. golf industry.
