THE RANGE AT THE 2026 PGA SHOW OFFERS PREMIUM, HANDS-ON GOLF EQUIPMENT AND TECHNOLOGY TESTING EXPERIENCE

The 2026 PGA Show, taking place Jan. 20-23 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Fla., will feature The Range, a refreshed and reimagined testing destination on the Show Floor. The Range delivers a premium, hands-on golf equipment and technology experience for PGA of America Golf Professionals, buyers, coaches and industry leaders.

Formerly known as the Equipment Test Center, The Range has been redesigned to showcase full-swing and short game testing, a 4,250-square-foot putting green, interactive contests and immersive, technology-driven experiences. With 45 full swing hitting bays, The Range offers integrated testing across clubs, balls, shafts, grips, simulators, turf solutions and more. It also provides attendees with direct access to leading equipment, fitting, simulator and technology brands through live demonstrations and expert interaction.

Introducing the Range Performance Center

New this year, the Range Performance Center enhances the experience with focused education and programming. The 600-square-foot space features two hitting bays with Inrange technology and a curated schedule of sessions centered on coaching and player development, sponsored golf demonstrations and best practices in golf range operations and facility optimization. Designed as both a learning hub and a live demonstration space, the Range Performance Center connects innovation with instruction and business strategies for today’s PGA of America Golf Professionals and facility operators.

A Hub for Testing, Networking and Golf Channel’s Live Broadcast

The Golf Channel Show Floor Studio anchors The Range, broadcasting GOLF TODAY live each day overlooking the putting green, a natural gathering point for networking, conversation and discovery throughout PGA Show Week.

The Range is supported by Real Feel Golf Mats, the Official Hitting Mat Sponsor and Korechi Innovations, the Official Range Picker Sponsor.
