Ben Hogan Golf Equipment Offers Two New Programs to Enhance Online Buying

The Ben Hogan Golf Equipment Company had another spectacular year in 2020, realizing a year-over-year sales increase in excess of 50%.  This marks the second year in a row that the Company has achieved this level of growth, which was due in no small part to their innovative Direct-To-Consumer business model.  The Company adapted its business strategy pivoting away from the old-fashioned brick and mortar distribution model in late 2017 as a means of providing ultra-premium, forged golf equipment to serious golfers directly without retail mark-up and other unnecessary costs factored into their prices.

“We knew that selling direct was the way to go for us a few years ago.  Not only is it more efficient and effective for us, but it allows us to have a one-on-one relationship with the end-user.  As a result, golfers get hand-crafted, custom-built golf clubs for much less than they would pay at golf or sporting goods stores,” said Scott White, President and CEO of the Ben Hogan Golf Equipment Company.  “Ecommerce is here to stay; we see nothing but upside for our business model in the future … especially as the global pandemic drags on and golfers remain cautious about visiting retail locations.”

Bryson DeChambeau Closes Out Arnold Palmer Invitational with SIK Putter

SIK Golf player and reigning US Open champion Bryson DeChambeau captured his eighth PGA Tour victory on Sunday at the Arnold Palmer Invitational. His final round 71 and 11-under-par total required power off the tee and brilliant putting touch on the rock-hard greens at Bay Hill. Not surprisingly, his SIK Pro C Armlock putter, which he relied on heavily throughout the weekend, played a major role in the big win, particularly during the final round, which he finished off with a winning 5-foot putt on the 72nd hole.

“Bryson has improved his putting tremendously through hard work and a scientific approach,” said Steve Harrison, CEO and Founder of SIK Golf. “We’ve worked extensively with Bryson to get his putter exactly right, which includes a recent change that reduced the amount of toe hang of his gamer by about 20 degrees. He’s extremely analytical when it comes to his stroke and his putter and we’re proud he’s used a SIK in all eight of his PGA Tour wins.”
