El Monte RV Takes Golf to the Streets

LOS ANGELES--Forget about plaid pants and checkered socks, the latest must-have golf accessory is a motorhome.

According to the experts at EL Monte RV, one of the nations largest renters of recreational vehicles, a growing number of customers are hitting the road in an RV for golfing adventures. In fact, the company is seeing this as such a large trend, they recently donated the rental of an RV to the Southern California Golfers Association for a tournament prize.

This donation was a natural fit, said Ken Schork, president of El Monte RV. We think this is going to be the next hot travel trend as the baby boom market realizes that dream golf trips can be combined with the ultimate road trip.

According to a USA Sports Participation Study, the number of core golfers is on the rise, reaching 15 million this year. Additionally, the number of youth golfers continues to grow, making a golf road trip an ideal family vacation. Traveling via RV offers golfers a convenient and affordable way to travel with their clubs and add to the adventure, rather than pay for expensive air fare and hotels.

With more than 15 thousand golf courses across the U.S., traveling in a RV is the ideal way to see and play some of the countrys top courses, said Lang. Our customers enjoy the freedom of being able to easily take their clubs with them and map out new and exciting courses to play at while on the road.
