Kris Fay, Owner Northwest Golf Adventures

Warning: you’re about to read a little bit of shameless selfpromoting.

Northwest Golf Adventures started as a golf travel service in 2005. Our website was always full of course and resort features and travel deals. We helped thousands of golfers book vacation deals throughout Oregon, Washington, and Idaho.

The Internet grew and changed all that by making it incredibly easy to book your own custom-fit golf vacations. Northwest Golf Adventures had to evolve.

As the company made the shift from vacation packages to golf news and features, I knew the website needed to make a shift, too. It’s impossible to add new course features every day and our clients said they wanted new things to read on a regular basis. Despite what my wife might say, I do try to listen.

So, it’s with great pleasure that Iannounce the launch of our newwebsite!

Based on more contemporary newsdesigns, the upgraded nwgolfadventures.com breaks this magazine down andmakes it easy to search for and read thestories you want. Regular features arerepresented as categories and storiesthat might not make it into the magazineare posted as they become available.

We’re also setting up a shop where wecan curate some of our favorite golf gearthat you might not find readily availablein your area.

In short, the writers and staff membershere have gotten a lot busier in betweenissues!
