OnCore Golf

OnCore Golf Technology, Inc. is an American manufacturer of golf balls headquartered in Buffalo, New York. Founded in 2009 by Steve Coulton and Bret Blakely, the company is known for creating the first and only USGA-conforming hollow-metal-core ball in 2012. OnCore has since released several other golf ball products, including the "ELIXR" tour ball, and has secured the sponsorship rights of the Gateway Tour. The company relies primarily on word-of-mouth marketing for advertising and conducts much of its sales online. Professional athletes such as Ezekiel Elliott and Josh Allen have become shareholders in the company.
In 2019, OnCore announced plans for a privately-funded $30-million year-round sports entertainment complex along the Buffalo River on a former brownfield near Riverworks and Canalside. The facility will include a 72-hitting-bay golf entertainment center with food and beverages, 350 parking spaces, a 120-room hotel with meeting and event space, and year-round access to the river, in addition to attractions for children.
