A couple of weeks ago, Bobby from Carve On (carveon.com) wrote and asked if they could send me a customized leather scorecard holder or yardage book.

I said yes, sent them the artwork and confirmed my name, and waited. While I waited, I perused their selection. You can see their golf selection here: https://www.carveon.com/collections/golf-accessories.

I watched a video:

 

I perused their story. I took a tour of their workshop. I read their FAQ. I downloaded an image of their "weird" bird logo: CarveOn-Woodpecker_Light-Background.png? (Seriously, what is that thing? I like it.)

And then the box arrived, all of four days after they shipped it, and I got to see what they'd sent.

Here it is.

The package is basically the Tan Personalized Golf Gift Set (https://www.carveon.com/collections/golf-accessories/products/golf-gift-set-tan). It sells for €99, and includes a Personalized Scorecard Holder (https://www.carveon.com/collections/golf-accessories/products/scorecard-holder-tan) and a Personalized Golf Bag Tag (https://www.carveon.com/collections/golf-accessories/products/golf-bag-tag-tan).

I'll post more after I've had a chance to use these, but I'll leave you with a list of the things that impressed me most:

  • The packaging is fabulous.
  • The smell, so good.
  • The fold is perfectly square. Nice.
  • The stitching is flawless.
  • The bag tag has a screw, not a snap. Great touch.
  • The logo is GREAT, as is the name. Nice detail, particularly in the sand particles.
  • The leather is soft and supple, but firm enough that it's not going to crumple when you shove it into your back pocket.
  • The box, seriously… I don't want to have to recycle this thing. But alas…

These are gorgeous. 

This isn't my taste for a golf bag, but I'm probably going to order the luggage tag.

Very cool looking!

I think if I were to get one, it would be the yardage book. I hate it when my yardage book gets ruined because I use it as my sweat buffer for my scorecard. (Honestly, the laminated AimChart is like half the reason I still use midpoint AimPoint reads so often.)

Those look sweet. I am liking the limited edition dark navy products. I just need to find a logo to put on. If I am going to buy something form them I want it to be tricked out :)

I can confirm that the scorecard holder is absolutely great! I used my custom one most of my 100+ rounds last season and it is still in great shape (if anything even better and more good looking).

Also, Carve On was great to deal with.

Nice! There's definitely something to having a personal item with just the right amount of wear on it. The patterns, the marks… they all contribute to the uniqueness and special nature.

Thanks! It might provide some #toursauce...


This looks awesome. I've really wanted a personalized yardage book for a while, and this is much more reasonably priced than any other custom yardage book.

Carve On makes some really great stuff.

I picked up a Yardage Book cover a few months back for my Aim Point charts/home made yardage books and it is awesome. I also ordered a notebook cover, which came today, for work and I am equally impressed. I highly recommend Carve On for any leather goods.
