Easthampton, MA — Golf Digest Magazine says Box of Golf® “looks like a precious antique.” Listed in The Buzz (the gotta-have-it equipment golfers are talking about—or soon will be) of the December 2004 issue of Golf Digest is Box of Golf®, the Classic Golf Board Game.
Golf Digest is the world’s largest golf publication with 1,550,000 circulation. Box of Golf® was selected for the 2004 Gift Guide’s Hot List by the equipment editors for The Golf Digest Companies: Mike Stachura of Golf Digest; E. Michael Johnson of Golf World; Mark S. Murphy of Golf World Business; Stina Sternberg of Golf for Women and John Strege of Golf World.
Box of Golf® has also received recognition from Churm Publishing Golf Group, Inc. in its November 2004 issues of LA GOLF, OC GOLF and SD GOLF, publications for the southern California golf market. In their First Tee section, it said, “Every year someone invents a golf-related board game hoping to capture the imagination of hackers. None did the trick for me until I played Box of Golf® at the recent PGA Fall Expo.”
BostonHerald.com Holiday Gift Guide will be featuring Box of Golf® this holiday season, along with their sister sites which include four dailies and 96 weeklies in Eastern Massachusetts.
Also this year, the Basic version of Box of Golf® was named 2004 Toy of the Year in the Classic toy category by Creative Child Magazine; the Enhanced version of Box of Golf® has been awarded the Seal of Approval by the PGA Tour Partners Club with a product test approval rating of 9.3; Box of Golf® was named Best of Show at the 2004 PGA Merchandise Show by Mid-South Golfer Magazine and at the 2004 Toy & Game Inventor’s Forum, Box of Golf® won the Inventor’s Contest.
The Box of Golf® product line is available in the Basic, Enhanced and Deluxe versions. Our Deluxe version includes 24K gold accented pewter figurines in an heirloom quality cherry hardwood box…quality for the avid golfer. It is available in retail stores, pro shops and on various internet sites.
The first of our Collector’s Series courses, the famous Old Course at St Andrews Links, the oldest golf course in the world, was released this summer in our Enhanced and Deluxe version. Peter Mason, Director of St Andrews Links, LTD said, “…surprisingly realistic way the essence of golf has been captured.”
By combining luck and strategy, Box of Golf® duplicates the real game of golf to appeal to all ages.
