"It is a thrill to see some of the great stories of the Journal come to life in the digital space," said Steve Cohen, President of The Shivas Irons Society. "We've used today's technology to bring the spirit and joy of this wonderful, ancient game to virtually anywhere, in a tablet-friendly format. We hope this web-based version will lead more people to explore the beautiful work available in the four editions of The Journal."

The Journal is published by the Shivas Irons Society to foster and honor high quality and thought-provoking art and literature in golf, its history, and the contribution of golf to personal development. The Digital Anthology of The Journal was created by MacDuff Consulting, in an electronic format, to deliver access to some of the best of The Shivas Irons Society's publications.
