Setting a new standard in environmental awareness in the golf

Dixon Golf announces partnershp with ASU Karsten Golf Course

Dixon Golf, manufacturer of the world’s first high performance, 100% eco-friendly golf ball, announced a new partnership with ASU Karsten Golf Course in Tempe, Arizona. As the official home of Dixon Golf, ASU Karsten will offer the entire line of Dixon “Earth” golf balls and products for sale in the golf shop, serve as a recycling center for used golf balls, and offer product testing of Dixon Golf balls on the practice range.
Dixon Golf’s new Earth golf ball is not just environmentally friendly, but high performance as well. Independent testing has shown that it compares with and even exceeds many standards of some of the world’s top golf balls.
All golf balls manufactured by Dixon Golf are “green” to the core, using all renewable materials to create a golf ball that is 100% recyclable. Not only has they created a fully recyclable golf ball, they have developed a recycling program to back that up. Any golf ball brought to a Dixon Golf retail outlet or golf course will be good for a $1 credit toward the purchase of any new Dixon Earth golf balls.  Those balls will then be recycled to make new products such as field turf and playground equipment.
Additionally, as part of the recycling program, people can exchange any brand of ball for $.50 per ball, also good toward the purchase of Dixon Earth golf balls. These balls will be used to research effective ways to recycle all golf balls.
“ASU Karsten is making a concerted effort to help protect the environment and we are excited to be able to offer earth-friendly golf products in our golf shop,” said Daryl Crawford, director of golf at ASU Karsten Golf Course.
The ASU Karsten Golf Course is a 7,002-yard, par-70 classic Pete Dye design reminiscent of a Scottish links course.  For more information, visit www.asukarsten.com or call 480.921.8070.
