We recently received an email pointing us in the direction of a new golf apparel company. When we landed on the web page of this company we were shocked at what we saw. We’ve seen imitation and we’ve seen coincidences, but this company has taken the cake. We’ve discovered a golf apparel brand that is the exact opposite of Triple Bogey…Quiet Please Golf. They’re an “eco-friendly” golf apparel company that screens designs on golf shirts. “Finally a brand that embraces Urban Chic”.
Here is some of their “opposite” copy:
QUIET PLEASE shares these core values. Infact, our iconic logo is used at tournaments everywhere to request patrons to respect the etiquette of the game by being still and quiet while a competitor makes their shot. Add to our appreciation for the game and the course our enormous respect for this planet we live on. Our ecologically friendly selection of materials used to make our products demonstrates how we cherish our environment.
As you all well know, we don’t feel the same about the environment, well at least not the horseshit marketing or the fraudulent statements made by companies claiming to be “eco-friendly”. We’re not knocking this company, we’re just having a laugh at the fact that this golf apparel company is the complete opposite of ours.
Here is more of their opposite copy:
Respect and Individuality are among the core virtues of the game of golf. It is the world’s only sport where the player acts as their own referee, responsible for calling violations on themselves. It also is the only game where “etiquette” is integrated into the rules. Players and fans are expected to remain quiet and still while another player is making their stroke, in respect for their need to focus and concentrate on the task at hand. Golfers are also expected to respect the golf course by repairing their ball marks, replacing their divots and raking the bunkers after their play. While many golf games involve a competition between players, the true competitor is the course itself, making golf the ultimate in individual sport.
Triple Bogey truly believes in the cause of “Saving the Planet”. Only so it can keep killing us en masse via: earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, floods, droughts, tornadoes and volcanic eruptions. To us, Earth Day is just a celebration for the appreciation that the earth can just shake us off this floating blue marble like a dog shakes off fleas.

Isn’t the entire game of golf bad for the enviroment? That, combined with the fact that the most eco-friendly thing these guys could do is stop selling clothing to people who don’t need it, means that this is either just another group of idiots, or clever capitalists out to dupe the idiots out of their money. Either way it’s a joke.
