The Golf Travel Writers of America

   Golf Travel Writers of America is made up of travel writers, editors and publishers of state and regional golf magazines, radio and television golf show hosts and established golf website operators.

Our members specialize in writing about the travel and destination resort side of golf. 

Resort representatives and the public are invited to meet our members and enjoy the recent travel stories they have posted.

Go to the Resort Members page to see photos of their golf course and descriptions as well as stories written by our members about the resorts.

The mission of the Golf Travel Writers of America is to forge mutually beneficial relationships between our members and representatives of golf resorts, tourism associations and golf courses.

Most of our members also belong to the Golf Writers Association of America (GWAA).

That larger organization supports primarily the newspaper and magazine writers who cover golf as a sporting event.

Golf Travel Writers of America members cover golf also as a travel and resort activity.

Our stories appear in travel publications and in the state and regional golf publications.  Many of our members own their regional publications and consequently can guarantee publication of their stories. 

The Golf Travel Writers of America meet prior to major national golf events that our members regularly attend.  Meetings are held the Sunday-Tuesday prior to the PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando, Florida and The Masters in Augusta, Georgia. 

Events at golf resorts are added throughout the year.

The golf course photos rotating at the top of this page have hosted meetings of the Golf Travel Writers of America.

 

Daytona Beach/Aku Tiki Resort The January meeting of the Golf Travel Writers of America, just prior to the PGA Merchandise Show, was held at Daytona Beach, Florida. Several golf travel writers stayed at the Aku Tiki Hotel on the famous beach and played the historic Donald Ross-designed Daytona Beach Golf Club and LPGA International. We met with representatives of the hotels, the golf courses and Golf Daytona Beach. All the attending writers are writing stories about the visit. These stories will appear on their personal pages on this web site.

For the 6th year we attended the Scottsdale Media Classic hosted by Resort Suites of Scottsdale. We played the new Talking Stick Golf Course, a part of the new casino and both redesigned Troon North courses plus the renovated TPC Champions course. Look for individual writers' stories.
