From little things, Big Dogยฎs grow!
Founded by owner Mark Calder in 2019, Big Dogยฎ Golf Co. was literally built from a name. โI couldn't believe โ The Big Dogยฎ hadnโt really been used for anything in the golf industry before. Most people who play the game will know The Big Dogยฎ is commonly used when referring to the driver, so I thought, why not trademark it and see what we can do? I had plenty of different ideas and would play around with drawings, logos and concepts, but I just kept coming back to headcovers, and that's how it began.โ
Fast forward to 2026: we've slowly upgraded our spaces along the way (we started on the dining room table in our Brunswick apartment) and now operate out of a little factory in our hometown of Wodonga, my partner Sarah now works alongside us on the business full-time and we've built a small team of awesome employees that make it all possible.
Every piece is handcrafted in-house with an uncompromising focus on detail, material quality, and finish, delivering products worthy of the worldโs best (and worst) golfers.
Our work is trusted by iconic clubs such as Royal Melbourne, Barnbougle, Royal Adelaide, New South Wales GC, Victoria GC, Peninsula Kingswood, Cape Wickham, Cathedral Lodge, 7 Mile Beach, and internationally at Tara Iti, Jack's Point, Royal Wellington, Te Arai Links, Royal Auckland & Grange, The Hills, Titirangi, St Patrick's Links (IRE), Mountaintop Golf & Lake Club (USA), Gallagher's Canyon (CAN) to name a few.
Weโve also worked with brands, players, charities, and celebrities including Adam Scott, Harry Styles, Ripper GC, Shane Warne, Ash Barty, Movember, Mick Fanning Charity, Andy Lee, Min Woo Lee, Jason Day, the Australian Olympic Team, Amex, BMW, Lexus, Adidas, Wilson Golf, Puma, and many others, this still blows our mind!
We don't use fancy excess packaging, in a bid to reduce waste we pack all orders in compostable zero-waste bags, use biodegradable packing tape, and recycled or reused cardboard where possible.
