Timeline
2017 – 2020

During my time at Callaway Golf, I was the lead UX designer of their Pre-Owned brand. In this role, I was responsible for modernizing their e-commerce platform, enhancing user experience, and driving increased sales through enhanced mobile design.

Users

Consumers ranged from casual golfers looking for affordable equipment to avid players seeking high-quality used clubs. The platform also catered to sellers wanting to trade in their old gear.

Problem

Callaway Golf Pre-Owned's existing e-commerce platform was outdated and not optimized for mobile users, despite performing well on sales. Enhancing the user experience meant there was more opportunity to increase conversion rates and customer satisfaction, and unlock greater revenue.

Goals

Redesign the e-commerce platform with a mobile-first approach. Improve navigation, product discovery, and checkout processes to boost conversion rates and overall sales.

Bounce rate
Bounce rate dropped significantly across mobile, tablet, and desktop, with a steady incline in mobile sessions overall.
Customer & team feedback
Long-time customers responded positively to the redesign, and the new modular home page let the content team update it without engineering support.

Home Page

The old homepage was capped at a fixed 975px width. It never adapted past that on larger screens, and looked stretched or cramped everywhere else. It also had no way to spotlight secondary products, so everything competed for the same real estate. I rebuilt the layout to be fully responsive across breakpoints and introduced modular blocks the content team could use to promote secondary product lines without needing engineering involvement.

Product Page

The product page already listed individual inventory items in a table, necessary since every piece of used equipment is a unique unit with its own condition and price, but the table itself was awkward to scan and use, especially on mobile. I replaced it with a card-based layout on mobile and pinned a fixed add-to-cart row to the desktop layout so purchasing a specific unit stayed one action away no matter how far a shopper scrolled.

Category Page

The category browsing experience carried over largely as-is from the previous site. The update here was mostly about bringing it in line visually with the rest of the new design system rather than restructuring how it worked.

Trade In Page

Trading in old equipment previously meant filling out one long, cumbersome form covering club type, brand, model, and condition all in a single pass. I broke it into a guided step-by-step flow, one decision at a time, for both desktop and mobile, so sellers were never staring at a wall of fields at once.
