Our story

We started with carbon steel. It rusted, so we started over.

Every product here exists because an earlier version was not good enough. Out on a real course the first markers met dew, irrigation and rain, and rust showed up. Instead of covering it with more of the same, we went back to the bench and kept testing until we had a marker we were proud to put a club's name on.

Every marker we make today is the result of that testing: stainless steel and a specialized heavy-duty painting process, cut and finished in our Carnegie shop.

  1. Where we started

    Carbon steel

    Strong, easy to cut and the obvious first choice for a laser-cut marker. On the bench it looked great.

  2. What went wrong

    It started to rust

    Our laser cut edge was so sharp that powder coat would not hold on it. Add morning dew, sprinklers, fertilizer and rain, and carbon steel gave in. A marker that rusts is not one a club wants on its tee box.

  3. What we did about it

    We tested, again and again

    We did not paint over the problem. We tried one approach after another and kept only what held up.

  4. Where we landed

    Stainless steel and a specialized paint process

    Stainless steel that resists rust at its core. A heavy-duty painting process of the kind used on heavy equipment, so the color holds up. Built to last season after season.

The people

A family-run Pennsylvania business

Druzak Golf Tees is led by Jeff Druzak, with a team in Carnegie that takes your order from first call to the box on your doorstep.

President, Owner and Founder

Jeff Druzak

Jeff started Druzak Golf Tees in Carnegie, Pennsylvania, and still leads it. When the first carbon steel markers rusted, he would not ship them. The laser cut was so sharp that powder coat would not last on carbon steel, so he moved to stainless steel and a heavy-duty painting process.

Our name is on every marker, so every marker has to last.

For course owners

Your tee boxes are the most-seen branding on your course

Every golfer stops at every tee box. A custom marker with your logo turns each hole into a permanent reminder of whose course they are playing, and gives the people who love your course something to take home.

Every hole becomes a brand moment

On an 18-hole round a golfer stands on a tee box 18 times. A marker with your logo makes each one a repeat impression, and there is nothing to renew each season.

Your golfers do the advertising

People photograph tee shots and signature holes and send them to friends. When your logo is cut into the marker beside them, your club name travels with every photo.

Turn fans of the course into pro-shop buyers

Golfers who love your markers want a piece of them. Matching desk markers, plaques and trophies let your pro shop sell the brand, and give members a gift that only your club has.

One look from the parking lot to the green

When the tee markers, hole markers and yardage markers share one shape and finish, the whole property looks planned. Golfers notice care, and care shapes how they judge your course.
