#GolfChat Authors

For weeks we’ve been teasing that something big was coming to #GolfChat and today it’s time to unveil what @connectgolf and I have been working on . . . a #GolfChat Authors page.

A few weeks ago we reached out to a select few #GolfChatters with the idea to write monthly on a specific topic and so many of you jumped on board right away.  (If we didn’t approach you and you think we should have, you have complete authority to let @connectgolf know).

The purpose of the #GolfChat Authors monthly postings are to generate discussions about golf that will help to grow the game and inspire others to become involved.

@connectgolf put in a lot of work to make this happen so be sure to thank him when you get a chance and look for more opportunities to submit work via our #GolfChat Authors group.

Our first #GolfChat topic was:

“Golf isn’t dead, it’s cyclical. When is the next up-cycle & what will it look like?”

And we received articles from:

  • @tonyjdear – Golf Emerging from its Dark Tunnel
  • @golfbandwagoner – I Think I Killed Golf
  • @zebwelborn – Is Golf on the Back 9?
  • @onerandomaussie – Golf’s Evolution and Education
  • @todd_fitness – Golf Isn’t Dying, It’s Evolving
  • @regripped – A Vision for Golf’s Future

And you can read them all right here – http://www.golfchat.org/authors/
