With a wide array of golf accessories, apparel, training aids, and even refurbished clubs, Link’s Golf Shack has quickly become a go-to destination for golf enthusiasts.

Whether it’s for a special event, a unique gift, or simply a personal touch, Link’s Golf Shack excels at turning their customers’ visions into reality .
A Community-Centric Approach
Beyond offering quality products, Link’s Golf Shack is deeply committed to giving back to the community. Through their grassroots program Swing for the Stars, they provide golf grants to at-risk and financially disadvantaged youth. These grants help young golfers access equipment, lessons, and support, allowing them to participate in school golf programs and experience the life-changing benefits of sports.

“We believe that involvement in school-sponsored athletics is one of the most positive influences on America’s youth,” says Matt Kellogg, CEO of Link’s Golf Shack. “Golf, in particular, offers invaluable life lessons like honesty, integrity, sportsmanship, self-reliance, and self-confidence skills that help these kids not only in sports but in life.”
This dedication to supporting young athletes and giving back to communities truly sets Link’s Golf Shack apart from its competitors.
Standing Out in a Competitive Market
In an industry often criticized for its elitist reputation, Link’s Golf Shack is working to make golf more approachable, inclusive, and fun for players from all walks of life. Their philosophy is simple: golf is for everyone. This vision is reflected in their approach to pricing, customer service, and their overall business model. The company’s commitment to affordability, while maintaining high standards of quality and service, has garnered them a loyal following, particularly among everyday golfers.
“Whether it’s the golfer playing in jeans with hand-me-down clubs or the scratch golfer with a $3,000 set of clubs, we treat every player the same,” Kellogg adds. “At Link’s Golf Shack, we’re about enhancing the experience, not just selling products.”
This emphasis on inclusivity, community, and affordable pricing resonates deeply with customers and has helped propel Link’s Golf Shack to the forefront of the industry.
