CALGARY, Dec. 22 /CNW/ - Anaheim, CA leads the parade of newly renovated Nevada Bob's Golf retail stores (TSE: ''NBC'') opening across the U.S. as part of the company's aggressive plan to dominate golf retailing around the world and on the Internet. ''Nevada Bob's Golf Inc. is already beginning to see the fruits of its aggressive strategic plan,'' said Martin Bunting, Chief Operating Officer of Nevada Bob's Golf. ''Through renovation of existing outlets such as this store in Anaheim, and the building of new Nevada Bob's Golf super pro-shops, we are able to provide an enhanced in-store shopping experience that is at the leading edge in the world of golf retail. Investors, customers and franchisers that see these changes are responding enthusiastically.'' The 10,000 square foot Nevada Bob's super pro-shop in Anaheim provides a complete golf experience for customers by combining the service and quality of a pro-shop with the value of a super center. Amenities include a putting green, hitting cages with a full swing golf simulator, and a lie/loft machine all designed to assist staff in professionally analyzing customers' individual equipment needs. Nevada Bob's now also offers expanded selections of clothing, shoes and equipment for women and juniors - the fastest growing groups of golfers. Nevada Bob's Golf Inc. is also pleased to announce the grand opening for a 5,000 square foot super pro-shop franchise in Biloxi, Mississippi this month. Nevada Bob's Golf Inc. is the largest retail chain of golf specialty stores in the world. Over 281 stores carry the Nevada Bob's banner, of which 195 are franchise locations. The majority of stores are located in the United States and Canada. An executive team purchased the dissolved Nevada Bob's company in 1999 and formed the new Nevada Bob's Golf Inc.
