From the same company that makes the Official Football of the NFL, Wilson Golf offers top-of-the-line golf bags for the ultimate sports fan
CHICAGO, May 4, 2009 – Wilson Golf recently announced its agreement as the Official NFL (National Football League) logo golf bag for 2009. Since 1941, Wilson Sporting Goods Co. has been the Official Football of the NFL, including every Super Bowl game ever played. With this addition to the 2009 product line, Wilson Golf helps extend fans’ love of their favorite NFL team from the football field to the golf course.
Available in all official NFL team logos and colors, the Wilson NFL golf bags are available in both cart and carry options. Several of the best selling teams include the Chicago Bears, Denver Broncos, New York Giants, Pittsburgh Steelers, New England Patriots, Washington Redskins, Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys, among others.
“As a nearly century-old American brand, Wilson Sporting Goods Co. has a rich history in both football and golf and a strong connection to fans across the sports spectrum,” said Tim Clarke, general manager of Wilson Golf. “The partnership of Wilson Golf and the NFL is a natural fit and we’re thrilled to offer the official logoed bag to devoted NFL fans.”
