Chris Carroll - Sponsored by Basic Golf

Basic Golf  now sponsors 3 mini tour players and one amature player. Chris Carroll  has been with us for a year now and we love having him on board. He’s a very consistent player with a ton of potential. Check out this video that I took of him practicing. We were at the TGAA Tour  Championship in Primm Valley, NV on Feb. 16th. Chris won that 2 day event! As soon as we can, we’re going to compile his stats here. In the mean time, check out this video and the gallery images we have of him as well.

Seattle Golf Show (2)

Posted by Basic Golf on March 18th, 2008 · Filed under Seattle Golf Show · No Comments

We just got back from the Seattle Golf Show late last night. We had a great time showing all of the attendees our whole line of products including our SportCool and ClassicCool shirts. Everyone really liked them a lot and we got some fantastic feedback. We even gave away a shirt each day, which everyone really loved.

John Tipping did a great job organizing the show and really worked hard to keep all three days moving along smoothly. Based on the success we had, I think it’s safe to say that we’ll be back next year with our new lines!

Seattle Golf Show

Posted by Basic Golf on March 13th, 2008 · Filed under Seattle Golf Show · 1 Comment

We arrived in Seattle this afternoon for the 2008 Seattle Golf Show. I’m excited because in addition to having a booth, we were lucky enough to be the sole supplier of shirts for the 125 Show volunteers! John Tipping, who runs the Show, chose to outfit his volunteers with Basic Golf’s ClassicCool Ice Blue golf shirts! I can’t wait to get their feedback. We finished setting up what we could this afternoon and will wrap it up tomorrow morning before the Show starts. The Show runs Friday 13th 12-6, Saturday 14th 10-5 and Sunday 15th 10-4. If you live in the Seattle area, please stop by and say hi.
