Dixon Golf is an eco-friendly American sports equipment manufactured company located in Tempe, Arizona. Dixon focuses on golf equipment, specifically producing balls and clothing (composed of polo shirts and caps).
Products[edit]
Balls[edit]
In late 2008, Dixon Golf released the Dixon Earth golf ball aimed at the general market. The Earth ball differs from conventional golf balls because it is made without the inexpensive heavy metal fillers that are used in the manufacturing of other brands of golf balls.
Dixon Golf's second product offering was the Dixon Wind golf ball, a distance ball, designed with a denser core and a dimple pattern claimed to aid the ball in flight.
In July, 2010, Dixon Golf announced the release of the premium Dixon Fire golf ball. At the time of its release, the Dixon Fire was the most expensive golf ball on the market, with an suggested retail price of $74.95 for 12 balls.[1][2]
In June, 2012 Dixon Golf released the Dixon Spirit golf ball, designed specifically for ladies.[3]
Recycling[edit]
Dixon Golf has instituted a recycling program to back up its environmental efforts.[4] The program credits golfers $0.50 for any golf ball turned in to be recycled.[5] That credit can then be used toward the purchase of a new dozen Dixon Earth golf balls. The recycled golf balls are turned into artificial turf and playground equipment.[6]
In 2011, Dixon Golf recycled 144,000 golf balls to be used in Waste Management's water feature[7] on the 18th hole for the Waste Management Phoenix Open.[8][9][10]
