Ed Dong brings energy, dedication and a love of golf (and Loudmouth shorts!) to Haggin Oaks, playing over 200 rounds a year and sharing his passion with everyone he meets.
Ed Dong has been an employee of Demo Club Check-Out for the past nine years. Before coming to Haggin Oaks Golf Super Shop, he served for 16 years as Special Agent, Office of Internal Affairs, CA State Department of Corrections & Rehabilitation.
Ed plays golf at Haggin Oaks 3 to 4 days a week and averages over two hundred rounds per year. He is always the first golfer out in the morning and sometimes has to wait for the sun to rise before he can hit his first golf ball of the day. His dog, Kalea, is his golf partner who gets to ride on the cart and enjoy the round as much as Ed.
What makes Ed unique is his love for Loudmouth shorts. He has 180 pairs of Loudmouth golf shorts and more than 400 matching golf shirts. The attached photo of his closet tells the story. Ed told us he doesn’t wear the same Loudmouth golf shorts in the same year.
When Ed is not golfing or working at Haggin Oaks, he enjoys traveling. He invites his three daughters to join him on an annual vacation to Hawaii every summer. Ed gets the “Dad of the Year” award for that offer!
Look for Ed in the early morning, Monday, Wednesday and Thursday during the course.
It is always a pleasure to see his dog, Kalea, spending time with him. Every now and then Kalea has to stay home because Ed has invited a friend to come along on the round. Kalea doesn’t mind this sometimes, because he knows that when Ed plays his next round, she will be back in the cart.
Thank you, Ed, for the smile and jovial personality you bring to the Haggin Oaks Golf Super Store every Tuesday. Come by and say hello to Ed and let him know how many rounds you played this year. I don’t think any of us can beat Ed’s average of two hundred rounds per year.
