Golf Galaxy coming to OKC

[John]

Good news for area golfers! We finally get our first golf 'superstore'. Perhaps a Golfsmith or Edwin Watts will follow.

It is going in the Quail Springs area, right next to Circuit City and David's Bridal.

That will last a whole 6 months.

Is the city financing the deal? I was under the impression that we can't get specialty superstores without public financing.

isnt there several stores around the city including the quail springs area called something like the golf store. why wouldnt it last?

There's an Oklahoma Golf Superstore and a Golf USA within a couple of miles of each other.

I shop at both and will continue to, but it never hurts having a big store in the mix. Oklahoma is a golf crazy state. The market will easily support it, as well as the current stores.

Great. Another generalization backed up by fact.

It's becoming a saturated market.
