Creator's product design journeyfrom @cloudandwindgolf

[01]

Overview

The creator tells the origin story of his custom golf grips. He explains that he frequently lands in sand bunkers, which requires him to rake the sand. This repetitive task led him to an epiphany, comparing it to the meditative practice of tending a Zen garden and realizing golf is about composure. This insight inspired him to design the 'Zen grip,' which he reveals at the end before asking viewers to follow for more.

Transcript

This is how I design my golf grips, part one. I always find the bunker way too often, and that means I bad to rake the bunker a lot. I always thought that raking the bunker is just like how they take care of the sand in the Zen gardens. And one day it just clicked for me. Bunker shots or even golfing in general is all about composure and inner peace. I wanted to design something in respect to that. And after a few months, I have the Zen grip in my head. Follow us to see more of our grips and learn about our journey.
