Officially licensed collegiate products include Bucky Badger, eco-friendly ‘throwback’ models
(SCOTTSDALE, AZ) – AB Golf Designs has partnered with the University of Wisconsin-Madison on two new Badgers-themed specialty head cover models allowing students, faculty, alumni and fans to show even more school spirit on the course.
These head covers are Officially Licensed Collegiate Products through the Collegiate Licensing Company (CLC) and include a plush version of the school’s iconic Bucky Badger mascot and a special edition of AB’s eco-friendly Throwback line. The latter looks and feels like a classic striped knit stocking style, yet is crafted from polyester fibers made from recycled plastic bottles. It features UW-Madison’s signature red and white along with a script “Badgers” embroidered into the material.
“The University of Wisconsin-Madison is well-known for having some of America’s most loyal and passionate supporters,” says AB Golf Designs co-owner Chip Burley. “Now they can display an extra dose of school pride on the golf course by choosing special editions of the same premium head covers trusted by PGA and LPGA Tour stars.”
Available at select retailers throughout Wisconsin and online at www.abgolfdesigns.com, the new head covers highlight the superb quality and creative concepts for which AB is renowned. Ideal for use with woods, the plush Bucky Badger model retails for $28. Available for woods, hybrids and putters at $22-$28 individually, the Throwback line is also offered in three-piece ($75) or four-piece ($90) sets.
“These great UW-Madison styles exemplify the creativity and expertise we’ve gained through making custom head covers for high profile tournaments and major corporations,” says AB Golf Designs co-owner D.J. Langer. “We look forward to hopefully seeing Bucky Badger and the Throwback collection in the bags of the school’s golf teams, as well as those of its many illustrious alumni.”
AB Golf Designs is well established as the top provider of custom head covers for leading corporations nationwide. Recent designs include a rock hopper penguin for Allianz Insurance, a gecko for Geico Insurance, a bottoms-up peacock for NBC, a “blizzard” for Dairy Queen and a French fry box for McDonalds. The company has also produced a “Sparky” mascot for Arizona State University and Sooner mascot for the University of Oklahoma.
Used in competition by scores of leading professionals – including Champions Tour rookie Steve Pate and LPGA Tour stars Christina Kim, Yani Tseng and Maria Hjorth – AB Golf Designs’ products can be found at better golf retailers throughout North America, online at the company website, via amazon.com and through distributor agreements in the U.K., EU and Asia-Pacific regions.
