It has been a while since we last talked about anything golf-related. Today, we found a strong reason to break that silence—because, you know, Happy Gilmore 2. Yes, that’s right. For the benefit of those living under a rock, Happy Gilmore is back 30 years after the first movie. Callaway Golf is seizing the chance to ride the hype—well, if there’s any. Golf brand collabs with entertainment are few and far between, so this is definitely worthy of a mention.
Part of this rare crossover is a product that reflects exactly what Happy Gilmore is about: hockey-style golfing. Folks, meet the Callaway Happy Gilmore 2 Limited Edition Odyssey Hockey Stick Putters. In addition to this nostalgia-loaded putter, Callaway is also releasing a set of Happy Gilmore 2-inspired Chrome Tour Golf Balls.
The Odyssey Hockey Stick Putter, a nod to the famous club from the original film, gets an updated look with Callaway’s best tech. That means an enhanced shape, premium construction, and yes, it comes with a custom Happy Gilmore 2 sock-style headcover for extra flair. The putter will retail for US$499.99 and drop on July 25th to coincide with the movie’s Netflix debut.
Meanwhile, the balls are no slouch either. These Chrome Tour Balls feature iconic visuals and lines from the movie, including the hockey jersey motif, crossed sticks, and quotes like “Just tap it in” and “It’s all in the hips.” You’ll be able to pick up a dozen as we speak for US$59.99.
Callaway says it’s thrilled to be part of one of the most iconic golf franchises, and we say: finally, a golf tie-in that doesn’t take itself too seriously. Steal a few more looks at this cool putters and golf balls below.
