Off Course is back this week with a fantastic show. Hosted by Dan Edwards, each Friday he gives you a deep look into the world of golf and equipment in a way unlike any other podcast has done before. Today Squiggy DiGiacomo, the Founder of Amplified Golf, joins the conversation to discuss launching the brand.
It wouldn’t be Off Course without some tangents, but Dan and Squiggy talk about bringing Amplified Golf to market. Starting with Fender Golf and the first batch of products associated with the official license. This show has a lot going on and is one you will not want to miss as Squiggy DiGiacomo goes Off Course.
Episode 132 is here and Dan and Squiggy discuss the following topics.
The Birth of Amplified Golf
Staying Authentic with Music
Working to Create Fender Golf
The First Covers
And so much more

Never thought I’d hear some Steel Panther chatter on Off Course, but here we are!
Very cool concept and vision, hopefully they branch out to other instrument brands. Let me tell you – a Ludwig line with some of their classic drum wraps like White Satin Flame and Blue Oyster Pearl would be SICK.

love the idea. S

After listening to [USER=65884]@KeepGolfSquiggy[/USER] and [USER=2320]@Canadan[/USER] yesterday morning I was amped up to do something but couldn’t cause I was at work.
Felt like I needed to listen to hard rock on golf course, drink a high ball or 2 and just go enjoy the golf course after I shopped at Goodwill looking for polyester pants!

Would be cool to get better licenced whiskey/bourbon golf gear under the umbrella too. :unsure:

Be careful what you wish for 🙂
Really enjoyed the podcast. Really like the new twist on accessories and especially at a reasonable price point.
Finally able to finish this one up this morning, really enjoyed the episode. Was pretty cool listening to the extremes conversation and it totally makes sense. I’m not a big music guy (no talent there haha) but definitely going to have a look at the barrel guitars and covers. Also the polyester pants convo had me laughing as well cause I could totally picture it.
Finally catching up on pods after some travel, this was such an interesting listen. As someone who tends to really get into things and dive in, can totally relate to the conversation about extremes in either direction. Great correlation between interests, and it’s obvious all of this has been done the right way.

Will do! Thanks for a sick product.
Ordered a AmplifiedGolf Strat putter cover. I’ve got to say I’m impressed with the quality, the shipping was fast too. I’ll post a full review with pictures soon.
Got my headcover in! Looks great, quality stitching. Keeping it in the bag to give to my dad.

Color me impressed, the leather”ette” doesn’t feel cheap nor fake. It might be synthetic, but it’s high quality. It reminds me of the leather used on Fender’s hardshell cases. The stitching is flawless, and the design is well thought out and most importantly, original and licensed! It has a magnetic closure and closes back together solidly even without the closure. The red velvet liner is soft and polish and will probably hold up better than my covers with white lining. I’m sure it’s not for everyone but those that are musicians or like myself, wannabes who enjoy golf, this is a homerun and a great way to flash your other hobby on the course.

Looks amazing. I bet it looks even better in person!
Cool headcovers! If/when there’s a collaboration with EVH guitars (owned by Fender) on the Wolfgang or Frankie model, I’ll be 100% all in (the Wolfgang QM Transparent Amber is my #1 guitar, love that thing!).

Thank you for noticing the nuances. Being it was Fender, we wanted it to be a good representation of the brand. For the inside lining, We tried to get as close to the red that lines the cases because we thought that was an about attribute. To us, nuances are where authenticity lives. Thank you so much for posting this.

My only golf related gift this year and it’s a good one. Really nice construction. Ultra soft leather. Almost too nice to put on a golf club.
