<h2 class="font17 bold">Why Buy Promotional Golf Balls?</h2>
<p>When promoting your business and generating goodwill with clients and associates, <a title="Personalized Golf Balls" href="/golf-balls/">custom golf balls</a> are just the ticket and InkHead has them, ready to be emblazoned with your logo.</p>
<p>The relationship between business and golf has become something of a cliche, but it makes perfect sense. Golf is a game that requires a certain length of time to play but also a certain amount of downtime between holes. Golf can be played by people of all ages and while it is physically demanding, it’s not taxing in the way that contact sports are. These conditions make golf the ideal game to mix with business meetings, as well as a great way for people in high-pressure jobs to relax and meditate. We also recommend personalized golf balls for use by resort hotels, country clubs, sporting-goods stores, and as the official balls for charity golf tournaments.</p>
<p>In most of these buying guides, we present the various options within that category of promotional item and list their pros and cons. We will not be doing that in this category, however, as the preferred brand of golf balls is based on a set of personal criteria for each golfer that we would not presume to replicate. We will say that InkHead offers several major brands of golf balls, all of which take a silkscreened logo nicely, brands such as <a title="Promotional Callaway Golf Balls" href="/golf-balls/callaway/p1/f5820/">Callaway</a>, <a title="Promotional Nike Golf Balls" href="/golf-balls/nike/p1/f5739/">Nike</a>, <a title="Promotional Titleist Golf Balls" href="/golf-balls/titleist/p1/f5819/">Titleist</a>, <a title="Promotional Top Flite Golf Balls " href="/golf-balls/top-flite/p1/f5822/">Top Flite</a>, and <a title="Promotional Wilson Golf Balls" href="/golf-balls/wilson/p1/f5821/">Wilson</a>.</p>
<div class="spacer-10"></div>
<p><a name="types"></a></p>
<h2 class="font17 bold">Types of Presentation of Promotional Golf Balls</h2>
<p>Once you’ve selected the brand of ball that satisfies your personal preference, we offer several different ways to package and present your personalized golf balls to customers, business associates, employees, and event participants.</p>
<h3 class="font14 bold">Box of 12 Golf Balls</h3>
<p>Basic but elegantly practical, a dozen custom golf balls silkscreened with your logo and repackaged in the original box makes a great no-nonsense corporate gift or presentation for a participant in a fundraising golf tournament.</p>
<h3 class="font14 bold">Custom Golf Ball Packaging Sleeve</h3>
<p>Corporate sponsors who want to make their mark on the box as well as the balls should look into this simple but effective promotional tool, a cardboard sleeve with a stock imprint and the option of printing a logo on four sides for maximum impact. Simply slip the sleeve over one end of a standard rectangular box of 12 balls.</p>
<h3 class="font14 bold">2-Ball Business Card Pack</h3>
<p>A nifty way to introduce yourself to a client who happens to be a golfer is a box of two customized balls with your business card inserted into the lid. This item also makes a good leave-behind for sales calls and is guaranteed to reinforce your card and make you memorable.</p>
<h3 class="font14 bold">Par Pack</h3>
<p>Another relatively inexpensive package for your promotional golf balls is a 3-pack in a clear plastic tube that offers visibility even when the balls are not in use.</p>
<h3 class="font14 bold">Socks and Pouches</h3>
<p>Another option to consider when presenting golf balls to clients or other end-users is the ever-handy golf ball sock or pouch, which hang on the outside of the golfer’s bag and provide quick and easy access to balls, tees, and markers, as well as easy visibility for your brand or logo.</p>
<div class="spacer-10"></div>
<p><a name="how"></a></p>
<h2 class="font17 bold">How to Buy Promotional Golf Balls</h2>
<p>The imprinting of golf balls is a relatively simple silkscreen process that leaves your logo looking smart against the white surface. It’s hard to make an unattractive personalized golf ball, and as a memorable promotional tool it’s very effective. It is, however, also very expensive, due to the cost of golf balls themselves and the minimum order quantity necessary to make silkscreening cost-effective.</p>
<p>It is therefore important to consider the minimum order quantity for custom golf balls and weigh the cost against your projected ROI. Promotional products in general offer the best ROI of any marketing medium, and the high perceived value of personalized golf balls makes this an especially good item for building relationships with clients, but make sure that your marketing budget will support a minimum and make sure that said minimum will meet your needs and the number of clients you wish to reach.</p>

<h2 class="font17 bold">Why Buy Golf Tees?</h2>
<p>For such a small item, <a title="Personalized Golf Tees" href="/golf-tees/">personalized golf tees</a> are an excellent way to promote big. Like <a title="Personalized Golf Balls" href="/golf-balls/">promotional golf balls</a>, golf tees are an unusual but memorable alternative to business cards and other leave-behinds. For potential clients who are golfers, as giveaways for sporting-goods stores, or as gifts for guests at golf resorts, country-club members, or participants in golf tournaments, packets of golf tees are an inexpensive way to make an impact.</p>
<p>InkHead has a number of different custom golf tee options to choose from. Most include sets of standard 2-1/8″ tees, though we also have tees up to 3-1/4″, still well within regulation length. Most of our golf tees come packaged in sets that include several tees with logos silkscreened onto the shafts, but many include imprinted ball markers and divot tools as well. We also have some eco-friendly options with quick-degrading bamboo tees.</p>
<div class="spacer-10"></div>
<p><a name="types"></a></p>
<h2 class="font17 bold">Types of Golf Tee Packaging</h2>
<h3 class="font14 bold">Golf Tee Packets</h3>
<p>These are probably the most effective and convenient form of promotional golf tee packaging, a matchbook-style envelope containing 4 or 6 imprinted tees and golf markers. The envelope is also printed with your logo, graphics, and/or contact information in a handy pocket-sized package guaranteed to make an impression.</p>
<h3 class="font14 bold">Golf Tee Pouches</h3>
<p>When six tees aren’t enough, these pouches contain 25 tees in a translucent pouch bearing a one-color logo or graphic. The tees themselves may be imprinted or blank to fit your budget.</p>
<h3 class="font14 bold">Eco Golf Tees</h3>
<p>For the promotion that combines golf with an earth-friendly sensibility, we have packages that include natural fiber bags and tees manufactured for accelerated degradation, which helps to reduce the impact on both the number of trees used to make tees and on greens fees by lowering maintenance costs.</p>
<div class="spacer-10"></div>
<p><a name="how"></a></p>
<h2 class="font17 bold">How to Buy Golf Tees</h2>
<p>Before you decide that golf tees are the promotional tool to go with, it is important to keep an couple of points in mind. First bear in mind that, like all promotional products, golf tees are meant to be used. <em>Unlike</em> most promotional products, however, many of these tees won’t survive a single solid drive, so it is advised that you weigh the nifty portability and presentation of a four-tee packet against the longevity of a package with many tees.</p>
<p>Second, like most smaller items, there is a high minimum order quantity to make setup cost-effective, so we suggest you look at both our competitive base pricing <em>and</em> our minimum quantity before placing your order. Promotional golf tees are a very popular item with a high ROI, but they can be pricey in bulk. Consult one of our Promotions Specialists with any questions you may have.</p>
