Our Story

OCTOBER 2019 - The Beginning

It Started with a Simple Idea

I started playing golf about 15 years ago after growing up playing baseball.

Over time, the tools around the game started to feel disposable. Plastic, mass-produced, and disconnected from the tradition that drew me in.

I wanted something simpler. Something more grounded and closer to the roots of the game.

So I went into the workshop and made my own alignment sticks.

Those first sticks eventually became Hazy.

The First Hickory Sticks

I chose solid hickory, the same wood used in early golf clubs. Not for nostalgia, but for how it feels.

Balanced. Natural. Alive in your hands.

They weren’t meant to be a product. They were simply better to practice with.

But once they started showing up at the range and on the course, people noticed.

Friends asked for pairs.

Then their playing partners did too.

That’s when Hazy quietly began.

Why Wood Still Matters

Most training aids are designed to be inexpensive and replaceable.

Hazy was built on the opposite idea.

Practice tools should feel as considered as the game itself.

Wood changes with time.

It develops character.

It carries marks from use.

It doesn’t feel temporary.

That permanence, subtle but real, changes how you practice.

Built Slowly, on Purpose

What started in my shop has grown into a small American golf brand used by players, coaches, and clubs worldwide.

But the way we make things hasn’t changed.

We still choose real materials.
We still finish by hand.
We still keep designs quiet and lasting.

Because the goal was never to make more golf products.

It was to make the everyday tools of golf feel better.

What's in a Name

I’ve always been drawn to building and working with my hands, and over time that instinct naturally found its way into golf.

The name Hazy began as something personal, inspired by my daughter Hazel. After the birth of my second daughter, Georgia, the name grew into Hazy Golf.

The “HG” quietly carries both the brand and their initials.

From the beginning, I wanted Hazy to be shaped by family, craft, and the belief that the objects we use in golf should feel lasting and considered.

Since 2020, I’ve worked alongside close friends and family, growing Hazy slowly while keeping real materials and careful making at the center of everything we do.

Hazy alignment sticks are more than practice tools.

They are meant to be kept.

Each custom mark, crest, or color carries a connection to a place, a club, or a moment in the game.

As Hazy grows, that foundation remains the same:

Quiet design. Honest materials. Golf objects made to last.
