He notes that benefits gained from such understanding of an industry’s scope include the ability to develop a strategic long-term investment strategy with specific goals, and the provision of benchmarks to monitor such a strategy over time.

To determine the scope of the golf economy, SRI researchers analyzed existing studies and data sources such as government census statistics, state-level golf impact studies, and annual reports from golf-related firms and associations. Input was taken from industry experts and stakeholders, as well.
