‘Golf Log & Record’ caught up with the great Gary Player on practice day of the Senior British Open at the Westin Turnberry Resort a fortnight ago. Between practice bunker chips and putts Player kindly autographed one of the specially customized editions of ‘Golf Log & Record’ produced for Aberdeen Asset Management, the sponsor of this prestigious event.
Gary Player had come hot from his highly successful Celebrity Invitational event at Wentworth two days before which raised a large sum for his charity Foundation.
At Wentworth Golf Log Media’s sister company, Golf Flagstick Advertising (see www.golfflagstick.com ), had their innovative advertising flagsticks on all 18 greens.
As a result the event sponsors, Coca Cola, Pringle, Boschendal, and Davenport Lyons had their logos ‘on the green’ and will benefit from the additional airtime repeats on Sky Television throughout August and September.
Asked if he liked this new course furniture Gary said ‘Yes I did’.
Aberdeen also had the Flagsticks on the practice areas at Turnberry giving extra branding in a normally barren part of a tournament course.
‘Golf Log & Record’ is a hardback pocket book, designed with the help of Pros, which allows golfers to keep a track of where they played, and their scores and stats. An unusual tee gift (a change from a sleeve of balls!!) the books can be embossed on the front cover and indeed have customized inside copy if volume permits.
The standard book is available through Borders Books in the USA and WH Smith in the UK. Embossing enquiries should call Golf Log Media on 866 693 3285 (toll free) in the USA or (+44) 0870 005 3494 in the UK and Europe.
Along with its soft back, waterproof paper version, ‘The Players Log’ these books make a good pro shop item and are available through The Booklegger.
