Story

My love for the game of golf began 7 years ago, it was in the middle of a toasty Kiwi summer when my best friend and I picked up some clubs for the first time and took them down to our local par 3 course. His first shot was a shank that went straight into the greenskeeper's shin, I don't know whose idea it was to give a couple of kids a pair of blades from the 90s to learn to play golf with but it's safe to say that wasn't the best idea.

Since that round I quickly fell in love with almost every aspect of the game, l loved learning more about the equipment, exploring beautiful courses, and of course the feeling of pureing an iron. The one aspect I didn't love about the game was how inaccessible it was, $2000 for a set of irons has quickly become the norm with good-looking, budget-friendly clubs being a thing of the past.

We want all our clubs to capture the feeling of a pure iron strike or a pin-seeking wedge, the electric feeling that keeps us coming back for more, the rush of dopamine that makes us hit "one last ball" for 30 minutes at the range and the feeling that makes us feel like a tour pro even if it's just for one shot a round. It's this that came as the inspiration for launching Branford, we're proud to make the game of golf more accessible by making affordable golf clubs good-looking, whether you're a scratch golfer looking for a set of blades or like me 7 years ago where all I needed was a good set of clubs to learn the ropes with, either way, we're hoping we can save you some shots around the course and some money in the bank (maybe the odd greenskeepers shin while we're at it).
