Mulligans Masters x THE/STUDIO

1. Building a community through the love of golf

What began as a simple Sunday golf tradition quickly evolved into a growing community united by friendship and competition. Mulligan Masters of the Bay started when two players, Jackie and the founder, began meeting new golf partners during their regular foursome games. Over time, these casual connections turned into lasting friendships, and soon, the idea of forming a dedicated group took shape.

Instead of individually checking everyone’s availability each weekend, the founder created a group chat. From that small act of convenience, the community expanded into something bigger, a close-knit group that continues to attract new members who share the same passion for the sport and camaraderie.

2. A patch that stands for something

As the group’s identity grew stronger, the need for a symbol of belonging became clear. Everyone had standard bag tags, but they did not feel personal or special enough. The idea of a custom embroidered patch came naturally. Unlike a tag, a patch could be proudly displayed in different ways, on golf bags, jackets, hats, or shirts, while carrying a shared meaning of dedication and team spirit.

For Mulligan Masters, the patch was more than decoration. It became a statement. It represented a group that may not be made up of professional athletes but still takes the game seriously. Designed with a golfer swinging in front of the Golden Gate Bridge and rich colors that celebrate the Bay Area, the patch reflects both the region and the pride of its members.

3. Choosing THE/STUDIO

When it came time to produce their first official emblem, the Mulligan Masters team wanted a partner who could make the process simple and reliable. After researching several options, THE/STUDIO stood out for its strong reputation, range of products, and the effortless experience it offered.

“THE/STUDIO consistently appeared in my research and had excellent reviews,” the founder shared. “Working with Dave was easy, and since this was our first product, simplicity was key. Cost was not the main factor. It was about the ease of collaboration and the positive feedback. Plus, your website had some really cool offerings, which sealed the deal for us.”

4. Flexible use and lasting appeal

The group ordered 100 embroidered patches even though they currently have around 20 members. Each person received several patches to personalize as they wished. Some added them to their golf bags, others to jackets or hats. This flexibility allowed each member to celebrate the group’s identity in their own way.

The embroidered craftsmanship ensures durability on and off the course, while the design maintains its sharp detail and color vibrancy. Whether seen on a backpack or a golf bag under the California sun, the Mulligan Masters patch instantly identifies the wearer as part of something special.

5. Celebrating connection through design

The success of the Mulligan Masters patch goes beyond its look. It represents the essence of the group itself, bringing people together, sharing moments, and creating something lasting.

Through THE/STUDIO, the Mulligan Masters found not only a way to produce their emblem but also a way to express who they are. Every swing, laugh, and shared round of golf is now tied together by a patch that stands for community, passion, and belonging.
