Golfsmith International Holdings, Inc. said revenues increased approximately 12 percent in the second quarter ended June 30, to $146.0 million as compared to net revenues of $130.2 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2011. Net revenues reflect a 4.7 percent increase in comparable store sales and a 4.8 percent decrease in net revenues from the direct-to-consumer channel.

The company has opened 10 new stores and has not closed any stores since the second quarter of last year.
