“Buffalo Groupe is a marketing company built on a deep understanding of golf and related audiences,” said Kyle Ragsdale, CEO of Buffalo Groupe. “SMS and ActionWatch bring decades of leading sports industry research and insights that will greatly expand our capabilities both in golf and to the broader outdoor and ‘escape’ categories.
