Innovative Golf  Experience Creators Since Day One

Tipsy Tees was born from a singular vision: to infuse the game of golf with originality, humor, and social flair—all while upholding the quality and respect the sport deserves.

Founded by Mariano Diaz and Nicholas Skeval and operating out of Brighton, Colorado, and Syracuse, New York, Tipsy Tees is an American startup introducing a revolutionary concept: injection-molded golf tees engineered to bridge the gap between high-level utility and social fun.

But the story behind the product is just as important as the product itself.

How It All Started

Tipsy Tees began in the summer of 2025 with a bold idea: create a golf product that blends competition with the social side of the game.

Co-founders Nicholas Skeval and Mariano Diaz met in 2022 while playing college baseball and quickly bonded over a shared entrepreneurial mindset. In 2025, Nicholas introduced an unusual concept—a golf tee that could hold liquid while still functioning like a real tee.

What sounded simple proved challenging. Early prototypes were 3D printed and shipped back and forth for testing, with constant revisions to make the idea viable.

After multiple iterations, they achieved a breakthrough: a tee that could hold a 3/4-ounce shot while still performing on impact.

They brought early versions to a golf outing in Ohio later that summer, where the response was immediate and overwhelmingly positive.

That’s when Tipsy Tees became more than just an idea.

Our Mission

The game of golf has shifted. While tradition is our foundation, today’s players seek connection, energy, and memorable moments on the course.

Our mission is simple:
To authentically and responsibly blend the leisure of golf with modern social culture through creative design.

We develop products that spark conversation, create shared experiences, and enhance every round—without compromising the integrity of the game.

What Makes Us Different

Tipsy Tees stands apart from the typical golf lifestyle brand.

Our signature product is a dual-functional, injection-molded tee that serves as both a reliable ball stand and a measured (3/4 oz.) shot holder for your beverage of choice. It’s a novelty—but it’s also practical, durable, and precision-engineered.

Every tee is:

  • Hand-inspected and packaged in the USA

  • Built for long-lasting durability

  • Customizable for corporate events, tournaments, and charity outings

  • Made from FDA-approved biodegradable plastic

  • Delivered with responsible usage guidelines

We’ve created something that actually changes the on-course experience.

And we’re just getting started—expanding into performance headwear, apparel, and additional golf products.
