Golf Galaxy, Inc. launched www.RalphMaltby.com, a new web site designed to help golfers improve their game through education and information on the technical aspects of design, technology, and equipment.
Filled with technical tips, definitions, articles, and Q&A's with industry experts, RalphMaltby.com caters to beginners as well as technically-savvy golfers as content changes based on what the user initially selects on the homepage. Topics such as moment-of-inertia (MOI), how to improve putting, driver playability, golf ball flight dynamics, and more are discussed at length in a scientific yet easy-to-understand manner.
Web site users can also post comments to articles and engage in dialogue with other golfers and industry experts including Ralph Maltby, founder of The GolfWorks, a wholly owned subsidiary of Golf Galaxy, and a leading expert on club fitting, alteration, and repair topics.
“One of my goals with RalphMaltby.com is to provide varying levels of golf club technical knowledge to the golfing public so that they can make better and more informed decisions regarding equipment,” said Maltby, who authored all web site content. “This site is not about shooting from the hip or expounding non-factual opinions. It's all based on science.”
Justin Royer, Golf Galaxy's vice president of marketing added, “Ralph is known as one of the premier authorities in the golf industry on the topics of club fitting, alteration, repair as well as research and design. This website will allow him to share his works from the last 40 years which will ultimately allow golfers to play better golf. We are excited to make this information easily available to all golfers.”
Golf Galaxy, Inc., based in Eden Prairie, Minn., owns and operates golf specialty retail stores. The company currently operates 66 stores in 24 states as well as an ecommerce site and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dick's Sporting Goods, Inc.
