Las Vegas Golf & Tennis, Inc.
 PROFILE
On the course or on the court, Las Vegas Golf & Tennis (LVG&T) keeps its customers in the game. The company sells golf and tennis equipment, clothing, and accessories at about 40 stores, most of them franchised. It also has a handful of Asian stores. LVG&T promotes its stores as off-course pro shops with pro-shop service. In addition to name-brand merchandise, the company sells products under its private label, Vision Golf. John Siipola and Tom Hurford founded LVG&T in 1996 when they acquired the assets of sports retailers Saint Andrews Golf and Las Vegas Discount Golf and Tennis. Siipola has since parted ways with LVG&T, which is majority-owned by Dakota Capital.
