The demand for natural, plant-based alternatives is growing rapidly. Golf courses that embrace this trend can differentiate themselves, attract wellness-conscious players, and increase revenue. Here’s why integrating Back 9 products into your operations makes sense:

✔ Legality of Hemp-Derived THC and CBD Products

The 2018 Farm Bill legalized hemp-derived cannabinoids at the federal level, provided they contain no more than 0.3% Delta-9 THC by dry weight. Our products comply with these regulations, ensuring they can be sold legally in most U.S. states. Always check local regulations, but in many cases, stocking our products is as straightforward as offering craft beer or energy drinks in your pro shop, bar, or beverage cart.

✔ Consumer Trends: A Shift Away from Alcohol

• A 2023 Gallup Poll found that 39% of U.S. adults are actively reducing their alcohol consumption, with many opting for cannabis-infused alternatives.
• The global cannabis beverages market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 17.85% from 2023 to 2028, highlighting the rising demand for non-alcoholic THC options.
• According to a 2022 National Golf Foundation (NGF) report, over 25% of golfers are interested in trying CBD or THC-infused products as part of their on-course experience.

✔ How Back 9 Products Enhance Golf Performance and Wellness

• Relaxation Without Impairment: Microdosing THC with our gummies or drinks allows golfers to ease anxiety and enjoy the game without intoxication.
• Energy & Focus: Our formulas include performance-enhancing ingredients like Vitamin B12 and Magnesium Bis-Glycinate, which can help golfers stay sharp and energized throughout their round.
• Recovery & Pain Relief: CBD and full-spectrum hemp extracts may help support post-round recovery. A study in Frontiers in Neurology (link) suggests cannabinoids can aid muscle recovery and reduce inflammation, making our topical therapy sticks a must-have for golfers dealing with aches and pains.
