Rad Golf was founded by Scottsdale entrepreneurs Peter Johnson and Drew McFarland who have extensive experience working in the sports product industry. Scottsdale is known as the golf capital of the Southwest and is home to many eminent golf companies which helped the company develop its elite board. With its powerhouse team, Rad Golf is building a new legacy for golf with its ecosystem of premier products.
“I’m honored to be a part of something as evolutionary as Rad Golf,” says Board Member JJ Dudum, Partner at Discovery Land Company and part of the Casamigos family since inception. “We’re the latest and greatest, and the team involved brings a ton of experience with proven results. I see a tremendous opportunity for Rad to be the brand that is a notch above, and that will provide a more user-friendly experience while deriving a multitude of things that other companies do not provide, to give us an edge. I’m excited to a part of this company as it’s the new cool kid on the block in a game I’m passionate about.”
