Vegan and gluten free energy balls now available at Eatbunchies.com; a portion of profits from sales supports mental health initiatives
LOS ANGELES, California – Hally Leadbetter, in partnership with The Lasagna Box, has announced the launch of BUNCHIES, the first product under their new wellness and lifestyle brand Happy Golfer. Blending performance nutrition with playful, golf-inspired packaging, BUNCHIES introduces a fresh take on how golfers fuel their body, and their game.
BUNCHIES are vegan and gluten free energy balls developed with an expert nutritionist and lifelong golfers to deliver steady, sustained energy throughout all 18 holes.
Available in three flavors, Chocolate, Maple Peanut Butter, and Vanilla Almond, each bite-sized ball is crafted from premium ingredients like nut butter, oats, dates, and hemp hearts to provide balanced macros without the crash of traditional sugary snacks.
Designed to fit seamlessly into a golf-ball sleeve package, BUNCHIES tuck easily into a golf bag, glove compartment, or gym tote. With 3g of protein per bite and functional ingredients that support endurance, they offer the clean, convenient fuel golfers have long been missing.
“Spending most of my life on golf courses, I realized there wasn’t a single snack made with health-conscious golfers in mind,” said Leadbetter, founder of Happy Golfer. “Most options are either packed with sugar or leave you feeling heavy. With BUNCHIES, we set out to create something delicious, clean, and functional — something you can eat quickly between shots and rely on for steady fuel during a long round.
“It’s a versatile, golfer-designed option that supports your energy, focus, and feeling your best on and off the course.”
Happy Golfer is backed by a powerhouse team across sport, media, and consumer wellness. Its advisory board includes industry leaders such as Jared Solomon, CEO and co-founder of Five Iron Golf, Amanda Balionis, CBS broadcaster, and John Sherwin, co-founder and former CEO of Hydrant, who bring unmatched expertise in golf, broadcasting, and CPG innovation.
Together, they provide the insight, reach, and brand-building strength that elevate Happy Golfer’s mission and momentum.
Happy Golfer is a brand dedicated to bringing energy, joy, and performance to golfers everywhere. Each product from Happy Golfer is designed to combine nutrition and fun — with every purchase giving back. A portion of profits from BUNCHIES sales supports access to mental health resources, reflecting the brand’s commitment to overall wellness on and off the course.
The effort underscores co-founder Leadbetter’s enduring dedication to mental health awareness, an issue she has championed for years. Informed by her own lived experiences, Leadbetter sees the give back as an essential part of building a business authentic to her.
From functional snacks to playful consumer products, the brand is redefining how golfers nourish their bodies on the course and improve their well-being.
