About Chapeau Noir Golf
Chapeau Noir Golf is solely dedicated to the examination of golf apparel, critiquing the clothing choices of high ranking professionals, in minute, and somewhat excruciating detail.
Chapeau Noir Golf provides corporate profile and product review services upon request, in an effort to grow the game of golf through the independent promotion of both upstart and established golf apparel companies.
Chapeau Noir Golf hopes you find this blog both humorous and helpful, as Chapeau Noir aims to not only lightheartedly delve into current golf style trends, but to provide honest recommendations that will help you through your round in both comfort and in style.
Corporate Profiles & Product Reviews
Want to get the word out on your golf apparel company? Do you have golf apparel that needs independent review?
Corporate profiles are crafted with the full Chapeau Noir treatment and typically take three to four working hours to write and produce. Product reviews take between six and eight working hours to produce - and again, are written in the unique, entertaining style for which CNG has become known.
Unlike Carl Spackler, Chapeau Noir chose to stay in his bunk and not jump ship in Hong Kong, therefore missing out on looping for the Llama (all reports indicate that the flowing robes were indeed striking). Sadly, Chapeau Noir will not gain full consciousness on his death bed, so, you know, a little something for the effort is always welcome.
While every effort is made to produce accepted content requests in a timely manner, publication will occur based on the status of the current CNG editorial calendar, and only after the responsibilities of 'the day job' are complete. All chapeaunoirgolf.com writing is done during evening hours.
Make haste!
