The Story of the Giant "Tee"

How it started...

I was driving around Augusta on June 2021 and stopped by First Tee-Augusta to view their facilities. Other than an entrance sign by the main road their facility seemed completely anonymous. I had been watching the growth of public art in Augusta and it occurred to me that First Tee needed a statement piece, something like a simple golf tee to express their identity.

The next creative adventure...

After creating a signature piece for First Tee-Augusta I set my sights on Augusta University Golf and their award winning Golf program. With the support of a local benefactor and the Augusta University Birdie Club, we have created a “tee” that moves the AU brand forward while celebrating the Championships.

How to get your own customized “tee”

If you have an interest in discussing a “tee” design that can be customized for your facility, I would be happy to schedule a meeting. It would be an honor to help you promote your institution by creating a unique “tee” designed specifically for your project.
