Ohio Golf Journal wants to wish every Golfaholic a very Merry Christmas, plus we hope Santa leaves some great golf stuff under the tree for you.
Reflecting back on 2018 brings a smile to our face. We were fortunate to be able to visit several of the top golf destinations in the country and write about them. 
Golf fans witnessed one of the greatest sports comebacks of all time last year and television ratings skyrocketed. Tiger Woods began the year outside the top 1,000 in the world ranking, but ended the season with a win at the Tour Championship and moved to No. 13 in the Official World Golf Ranking. The race to catch Jack Nicklaus is back on.
We also want to thank our contributors, who help us provide a variety of golf articles for our readers entertainment and education.
In this issue, Ed Travis reports on the financial health of the golf industry and provides a list of great golf presents for your favorite Golfaholic. Mike May takes us to Naples Beach & Golf Resort, plus he explains how we can get golf ready, while sitting at our desks. Richard Todd has ideas to help you improve your game over the winter and Kevin Frisch talks about the fantastic results he has received by getting a club fitting.
We want to take this opportunity to thank our loyal readers. We try to bring you the best in golf news, information, equipment reviews, and stories of interest. This completes our fourth year as a fully digital magazine and we appreciate the support from our advertisers.
