The Founding of Golf Art  

 Golf Art was founded in 1997 by Otto "Mike" Buechle with a desire to bring museum quality bronze to the golf industry. Our first product was a 1/2 life-size golfing bronze by the world renowned sculptor Chapel.

 Mike's background in insurance sales and industrial arts contributed to the design and direction of Golf Art. His competitive background in high school and collegiate sports as well as 22 years of sales led to the design of trophies you can be proud to take home

 Being an avid golfer and lover of the game's history, Mike has utilized some of history's past to create bronze trophies anyone would be proud to own.

 The casting of a bronze trophy is extremely labor intense and quite costly. In many of our trophies 15 different people will perform some duty in the long process of sculpting and casting our awards.
