“Our goal for this site redesign was to easily showcase how junior golfers can progress through our program,” said Thomas Hutton, Executive Director of the Southern Texas PGA. “The simplicity of the new site makes it easy to navigate and creates an encouraging space for both new and existing Members.”

Features of the website redesign include the “Your Journey” section which helps new and current Members identify where they are in their journey to becoming lifelong golfers. The site highlights PGA Professionals as the most important aspect of the journey and then specific programs, showcasing golf as a lifelong sport.

For returning Southern Texas PGA Junior Golf Members, the site's different colors for each program and integration with the BlueGolf tournament software create a space that is seamless and easy to navigate.

In addition to the new site, the Southern Texas PGA debuted a set of new logos for the Junior Golf program also created by Long Drive Agency. This new logo set consists of a master Junior Golf logo and individual logos for each stage of the Junior Golf program.

“With our focus now being on the Junior Golf journey, we wanted to showcase that both on and offline,” said Hutton. “These new logos allow us to highlight each stage of the Junior Golf program.”

The master logo was designed with elements of the PGA seal in mind, sticking to the classic gold and navy with crossed golf clubs. The Texas outline and Southern Texas name have been added to create unique branding for the Section.

Individual logos in bright, youthful colors for the four Junior Golf programs: Little Linksters, Junior Links, Junior Tour, and Prestige Tour, outline each step a Junior Golfer takes on their way to becoming a lifelong golfer.

“The timing for both the new website and logos is the perfect way for the Southern Texas PGA Junior Golf program to step into 2020 and the future of Junior Golf,” said Hutton.
