Hundreds of nominations from across the golf industry have been trimmed to three nominees in each category in the 17th Annual ING Industry Honors awards program. Called by some the "Academy Awards of the golf industry," the ING Industry Honors program is conducted by the non-profit International Network Of Golf to recognize outstanding achievement in the golf business. The finalists in the category of best PR/Promotion are:
Haggin Oaks Golf Complex- Haggin Oaks Golf Expo
PGA Tour - Dress Sergio at the Players
TaylorMade-adidas Golf - Buy Driver, Get Free Shoes
Winners in a dozen categories are currently being decided by an electronic vote of the ING membership. Nominees will be acknowledged and winners announced at the Industry Honors Presentation Press Conference January 29 at the PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando.
Sub-committees in each ING Industry Honors category reviewed nominations that were taken from anyone in the golf industry, and by private vote trimmed the entries to the top three in each category.
The International Network Of Golf is a 20-year-old, non-profit organization whose membership is open to anyone in the golf industry, related industries and media. ING's mission is to enhance and promote communication and education in golf.
