When to pick the TW51
Player gifts, sponsor towels, pro shop stock. It is the lowest-cost known-price towel we run and the one the pricing table on this site is built on.
When to pick the TW50 tri-fold
When the towel needs to look tidy hanging on a bag and the logo is a compact mark that fits a narrow panel. Good for member and corporate gifts.
When to pick microfiber
When the logo has finer detail, or the course wants a towel that dries clubs fast. Microfiber is quoted per job for the blank.
Screen print option
For a one-color sponsor logo at 48 or more, terry towels can be screen printed at $4.34 per piece plus $0.25 flash and $20 per screen. See screen printing.
Questions
Which towel is best for a logo with small text?
Microfiber, then the TW51. Avoid the tri-fold for anything wide.
Can you embroider both sides?
No. Embroidery goes through the towel, so one side only.
