About LA GOLF
LA GOLF’s pro player, anti-establishment DNA has made it the most provocative brand in golf.
LA GOLF built its cult-like following first by re-imagining shafts, which is the engine and transmission of the golf swing, yet none of the big 5 golf companies make their own shafts. In the first year, over a dozen major champions put the shafts in play. Next, LA GOLF launched the most technologically advanced putter in the game. By using an all-carbon construction, a material 5x less dense than solid steel, this allows for a much larger area of forgiveness for off-center hits, mixed with their patented Descending Loft Face technology which features four descending degrees of loft that solve for consistency with launch angles and yields more predictable rolls. This last year, LA GOLF launched its ball, with a 4-piece proprietary construction that solves for both distance and control. The LA GOLF ball has outperformed the Titleist Pro V1 in several independent tests for backspin, carry, and total distance.
LA GOLF was founded by Reed Dickens, the founding CEO of Marucci Sports, where he used a similar playbook to partner with the greatest players in the game to dethrone legacy incumbents Louisville Slugger and Easton.
