Golf Yeah – the podcast and website that showcases people who’ve built successful businesses and careers based on their love for the game – has published its interview with Jane Spicer, who created and runs Daphne’s Headcovers, one of the golf equipment industry’s most successful companies.
In her discussion with Golf Yeah, Jane describes her journey from selling her hand-made puppets at arts & crafts fairs, to running a successful Arizona-based company that produces scores of different animal headcovers that can be found on displays in golf stores, golf clubs and resort pro shots in 75 countries. 
Interview highlights include:
- The backstory behind “Frank the Tiger,” her company’s big break.
- The role that Tiger Woods’ mother played in that headcover story.
- Why Padraig Harrington carries a ladybug headcover.
- The personal sacrifices she’s made to build her company, including traveling the country in a van for 6 years.
- The drama behind an order from American Express for 30,000 “Frank the Tiger” headcovers.
- The most challenging aspects of managing a staff and manufacturing products overseas.

- “Lessons learned” for listeners who have always wanted to run their own business.
Commenting on the interview with Jane Spicer, Golf Yeah’s Podcast Host and Editor, Gordon G. Andrew, said that, “Jane claims that being an entrepreneur “is not for sissies.” And she has walked that talk over the past 40 years.
