Golf Galaxy, Dick’s Pull Good Good Merchandise Amid Ad Controversy

Golf Galaxy and Dick’s Sporting Goods have removed Good Good Golf merchandise from their shelves following controversy surrounding a promotional video featuring the company’s co-founder shoving a woman to the ground. Dick’s has not yet commented on the status of its partnership with Good Good, but its website no longer lists any of the brand’s products.

Good Good products are also no longer available at Golf Galaxy locations. The controversy has led to a postponement of a show featuring Good Good on the Golf Channel, as well as calls for PGA Tour to remove Good Good as the title sponsor of its upcoming event. Good Good, which has gained popularity through its YouTube channel, has issued an apology for the ad, stating they will donate proceeds to an organization supporting women.

Its CEO, Matt Kendrick, acknowledged the company's mistake and stated they will take steps to prevent similar incidents in the future.
