The Golf Today site was redesigned and re-launched in December 1998, at which time the page impressions were around 125,000 per month. Due to the comprehensive archiving system, the size of the site grew, with some of the areas developing particular significance.

This was closely followed by: Golf Industry, Go Golf and Golf Pro-Online, with the latest addition to the Golf Today Network being Golf Ecology.

Golf Today's Callaway Golf equipment for a touch of class and comfort.

Ely Callaway, the man who revolutionized Callaway Golf for pros and weekend hackers alike with Big Bertha brand clubs, died on Thursday after a battle with cancer. He was 82. Callaway, the founder and chairman of Callaway Golf Co., died at his home in Carlsbad, California, the company said. He had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in April.

Callaway Golf, one of America's biggest sports equipment companies, makes and sells Big Bertha brand woods and irons -- named after the huge World War 1 German cannon because they have a bigger head.

Callaway, who purchased a small company that made speciality Callaway Golf equipment and turned it into the world's biggest golf club maker, founded the company in 1982 and retired as its president and chief executive in May. Ron Drapeau succeeded him in those positions.

"We've sold $5 billion worth of Callaway Golf clubs since Callaway started from nothing, which is far more than anybody in the world has ever done," Callaway said in a January interview.

Callaway also makes Odyssey brand putters and Callaway Golf, Firm feel and Soft feel golf balls. But his most controversial product is the ERC II driver, which has split the golf world. It is banned in U.S. competition but allowed in the rest of the world.
