Follow GolfTEC from Jan. 26-29 as we report LIVE from the PGA Merchandise Show with Tweets, blogs and videos for an inside look at the epicenter of the golf industry

DENVER –  Forty thousand people. Ten miles of floor. One thousand companies. Everything you ever wanted in golf, all under one roof.

Yes, the PGA Merchandise Show is BIG. And I’m on my way to join the madness.
