Custom Golf Polos, Embroidered With Your Club Logo
Olive Branch Apparel makes custom golf polos, embroidered golf shirts, and custom country club polos for pro shops, tournament organizers, and corporate golf outings. Pick your performance polo, upload your club crest, and see custom golf polo pricing before anyone calls you back.
Every custom embroidered polo shirt we ship gets a stitch-out proof first. You approve the golf logo embroidery before a single shirt runs.
What Makes a Golf Polo Different From a Regular Polo
A custom golf polo takes a beating that an office polo never will. Four hours of sun, a full rotation of the shoulders on every swing, and a cart ride between holes. That is why the custom golf shirts we recommend run on performance pique and moisture-wicking knits rather than heavy cotton. The fabric has to move, breathe, and hold an embroidered club logo flat through a season of wash cycles.
Embroidery placement matters just as much. On custom golf polos the left chest crest sits slightly higher than on a corporate polo so it stays visible through a swing rather than folding into the placket. If your club logo has fine linework, a shield outline, or small est. date text, we will tell you before we stitch whether it holds at left-chest size or needs simplifying.
| Best fabric for custom golf shirts | Performance pique and moisture-wicking polyester blends. They shed sweat, resist wrinkling in a golf bag, and keep embroidered golf logos from puckering. |
|---|---|
| Standard golf logo embroidery placement | Left chest, roughly 3 to 3.5 inches wide. Sleeve logos and back-collar hits are common on tournament polos and corporate golf outing shirts. |
| Typical custom golf polo order size | Pro shop restocks run 24 to 72. Corporate golf outing shirts and charity scramble orders usually land between 48 and 144. |
| Stitch count on a club crest | Most country club crests run 6,000 to 12,000 stitches. Crest detail drives the embroidery price more than the polo itself. |
| Reorder turnaround | We keep your digitized club logo on file, so custom golf polo reorders skip setup entirely. |

Who Orders Custom Golf Polos From Us
Pro shops and golf clubs
Pro shop buyers reorder embroidered golf polos on a schedule. We hold your digitized crest so every custom country club polo run matches the last one exactly, with no re-setup charge and no color drift between orders.
Corporate golf outings
Corporate golf outing shirts usually need a company logo on the chest and sponsor marks on the sleeve. Send us the sponsor list and we will lay out custom golf polos so the hierarchy reads right from across the fairway.
Charity scrambles and fundraisers
Charity golf tournament shirts run on a deadline and a budget. Custom embroidered polos at 72 or more drop into a price band that leaves room in the fundraising margin.
Golf teams and academies
High school and college golf teams order custom team polos with player numbers or initials. We can personalize individual embroidered golf shirts inside a single team order.
Printed Golf Event Apparel, Not Just Embroidered Polos
Embroidered golf polos are the centerpiece, but almost no golf event orders only polos. A member-guest weekend needs custom golf towels and caps. A charity scramble needs volunteer shirts that cost a third of what the player polos cost. A corporate golf outing usually wants a screen printed event tee in the gift bag alongside the embroidered polo.
Screen printing makes sense whenever the artwork is large, the color count is low, and the quantity is high. Custom golf tournament t-shirts, volunteer shirts, and range staff tees all print cheaper than they embroider. Embroidery earns its premium on the pieces people keep, which on a golf property means the custom golf polos, the caps, and the outerwear.
A practical split most clubs land on: embroidered golf polos for players and staff, screen printed tees for volunteers and giveaways, embroidered caps for sponsors. It keeps the custom golf apparel budget where it earns the most goodwill.
If you are running a tournament and are not sure how to divide it, send the run of show on the quote form. We have laid out enough golf outing apparel packages to tell you quickly where the money is better spent.
Sizing a Tournament Order Without Getting Burned
The single most common mistake on custom golf polos is ordering to the registration list. Registration lists are optimistic and they are almost always wrong on the size spread. Golf fields skew larger than a general population order, and men's custom golf shirts in XL and 2XL run out first every single time.
A size curve that works for most custom golf polo orders is roughly ten percent small, twenty percent medium, thirty percent large, twenty-five percent XL, and fifteen percent 2XL and up. If your field is corporate rather than club membership, push even further toward the large end.
Order five to ten percent over your confirmed count. Late registrations happen, sponsors add guests, and a few embroidered golf shirts always get claimed by staff. Extra custom golf polos with a club crest are never wasted because the pro shop can sell them. Extra shirts with a dated tournament logo are landfill, so keep event-dated custom golf apparel tight and keep the undated club pieces loose.
One more thing worth knowing. If you are ordering embroidered golf polos for a recurring annual event, leave the year off the crest. You will reorder the same custom country club polos next season without paying for new digitizing, and leftovers stay sellable.
Custom Golf Polo Questions People Actually Ask
How much do custom golf polos cost?
Custom golf polo pricing depends on the polo you choose, your quantity, and the stitch count of your club logo. A basic embroidered polo at 48 pieces lands well under a pro shop retail price. Run your numbers in the design studio above and you will see custom golf polo pricing per shirt and in total before you talk to anyone.
What is the minimum order for embroidered golf shirts?
There is no hard minimum on custom golf polos. One embroidered polo is fine. That said, the per-shirt price on custom golf shirts drops sharply between 12 and 48 pieces, which is why most pro shop and tournament orders sit in that range.
Can you match our existing country club crest?
Yes. Send whatever you have, even a photo of an old embroidered polo. We digitize the club crest for embroidery and send a stitch-out proof so you can compare it against your current custom country club polos before we run the order.
Do you do sleeve logos and sponsor placements on golf tournament shirts?
We do. Sleeve embroidery, back-collar hits, and multi-sponsor layouts are standard on custom golf tournament shirts. Each additional embroidery location adds to the per-shirt price, and the design studio shows that change live as you add placements.
How fast can we get custom golf polos for an outing?
Standard turnaround on embroidered golf polos is about 14 days from proof approval, printed and shipped. If your outing date is tighter than that, tell us the date on the quote form and we will tell you honestly whether we can hit it.
Should custom golf polos be embroidered or printed?
Embroidered, almost always. A printed logo on a performance polo cracks and fades where the fabric stretches across the shoulders, and it reads as cheap in a pro shop. Custom golf polos are one of the few garments where the embroidery premium is unambiguously worth paying. Save screen printing for golf tournament t-shirts and volunteer apparel.
Can we order custom golf polos in multiple colors in one run?
Yes. Mixing shirt colors inside a single custom golf polo order is normal and does not change the embroidery setup, since the club crest is stitched the same either way. Many pro shops run two or three colorways of the same embroidered polo to give members a choice.
Do you keep our club logo on file for reorders?
We do. Once your club crest is digitized for embroidery it stays on file permanently. Reordering custom country club polos later means no setup fee and an exact match to your previous run, which matters when members are wearing shirts bought two seasons apart.
What about ladies cut and youth sizes for custom golf shirts?
Both are available on most of the performance polos we carry. Ladies cut custom golf polos use the same digitized crest at a slightly reduced size so the proportion looks right on a smaller chest panel. Junior golf programs order youth embroidered polos regularly.
Getting Your Club Crest Ready For Embroidery
Almost every custom golf polo order stalls in the same place, which is artwork. Club crests were usually drawn decades ago for a sign, a scorecard, or a letterhead, and nobody has the original file. That is fine. Embroidery does not need a vector file to start, it needs a clear reference and a decision about detail.
Digitizing is the step where your club logo gets converted into stitch instructions. It is not automatic and it is not the same as tracing. A digitizer decides stitch direction, density, underlay, and where fine detail has to be simplified so the embroidered golf shirt does not turn into a solid patch of thread. Done well, a crest at left-chest size reads cleanly from ten feet away. Done badly, the est. date turns into a smudge.
What we need from you is the best version you have. A vector file is ideal. A high resolution image is fine. A clean photograph of an existing embroidered polo works more often than people expect, because we are reading shapes and colors rather than pixels.
Where crests usually need simplifying for custom golf polos: thin outlines under about one millimeter, gradients of any kind, text smaller than a quarter inch tall, and overlapping fine linework like crossed clubs or rope borders. None of those survive at chest size. We will show you exactly what changes on the stitch-out proof before your custom country club polos run, and you approve or push back.
Digitizing is a one-time cost. Once your club crest is set up for embroidery it is yours permanently, and every future run of custom golf shirts, caps, and outerwear uses the same file at no additional setup.
