Exhibit 10.59

CALLAWAY GOLF COMPANY

OFFICER EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

This Officer Employment Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into effective August 1, 2006, by and between Callaway Golf Company, a Delaware corporation, (the “Company”) and David A. Laverty (“Employee”).

1. TERM. The Company hereby employs Employee and Employee hereby accepts employment pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Agreement for the period commencing August 1, 2006 and terminating March 31, 2007, unless this Agreement is earlier terminated as hereinafter provided. If Employee is still employed upon expiration of this Agreement, Employee’s status shall be one of at-will employment. At all times during the term of this Agreement, Employee shall be considered an employee of the Company within the meaning of all federal, state and local laws and regulations, including, but not limited to, laws and regulations governing unemployment insurance, workers’ compensation, industrial accident, labor and taxes.

2. TITLE. Employee shall serve as Senior Vice President, Operations of the Company. Employee’s duties shall be the usual and customary duties of the offices in which Employee serves. Employee shall report to Chief Executive Officer or such other person as the Chief Executive Officer shall designate from time to time. The Board of Directors and/or the Chief Executive Officer of the Company may change employee’s title, position and/or duties at any time.

3. SERVICES TO BE EXCLUSIVE. During the term hereof, Employee agrees to devote Employee’s full productive time and best efforts to the performance of Employee’s duties hereunder pursuant to the supervision and direction of the Company’s Board of Directors, its Chief Executive Officer or their designee. Employee further agrees, as a condition to the performance by the Company of each and all of its obligations hereunder, that so long as Employee is employed by the Company, Employee will not directly or indirectly render services of any nature to, otherwise become employed by, or otherwise participate or engage in any other business without the Company’s prior written consent. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to preclude Employee from having outside personal investments and involvement with appropriate community or charitable activities, or from devoting a reasonable amount of time to such matters, provided that this shall in no manner interfere with or derogate from Employee’s work for the Company.

4. COMPENSATION.

(a) Base Salary. The Company agrees to pay Employee a base salary at the rate of $325,000 per year (prorated for any partial years of employment), payable in equal installments on regularly scheduled Company pay dates.

(b) Annual Bonus. The Company shall provide Employee an opportunity to earn an annual bonus based upon participation in the Company’s applicable bonus plan as it may or may not exist from time to time. In 2006 only, Employee shall earn a guaranteed bonus of one half of the target bonus otherwise payable to a Senior Vice President, pro-rated for that time that Employee is actually working at the Company. For example, if Employee starts on July 1, 2006, and is therefore at the Company for six months, or one half of the year, he would be paid a guaranteed bonus of $32,500, representing one half of his target bonus of 40% of Employee’s earnings, pro-rated. Employee will also be eligible for a potential discretionary bonus representing the other half of Employee’s target bonus of 40% of Employee’s earnings, pro-rated for partial year service.

(c) Long Term Incentive. In 2006, the Company shall provide Employee an opportunity to participate in the Company’s applicable long term incentive plan as it may or may not exist from time to time. Subject to the approval of the Stock Option Committee, or its designee,

Employee will receive a long term incentive award, consistent with the award to other Senior Vice Presidents, effective on the first day he actually commences work at the Company. The award of any long term incentive award in 2007 shall be subject to section 5(f) below.

(d) Signing Bonus. Within fourteen (14) days of Employee commencing employment on site with the Company, the Company shall pay to Employee a signing bonus in the amount of $30,000, less taxes and other required withholding;

5. EXPENSES AND BENEFITS.

(a) Reasonable and Necessary Expenses. In addition to the compensation provided for in Section 4, the Company shall reimburse Employee for all reasonable, customary and necessary expenses incurred in the performance of Employee’s duties hereunder. Employee shall first account for such expenses in accordance with the policies and procedures set by the Company from time to time for reimbursement of such expenses. The amount, nature, and extent of such expenses shall always be subject to the control, supervision and direction of the Company and its Chief Executive Officer.

(b) Paid Time Off. Employee shall accrue paid time off in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Company’s Paid Time Off Program, as stated in the Company’s Employee Handbook, and as may be modified from time to time. Subject to the maximum accrual permitted under the Paid Time Off Program, Employee shall accrue paid time off at the rate of thirty (30) days per year. The time off may be taken any time during the year subject to prior approval by the Company. The Company reserves the right to pay Employee for unused, accrued benefits in lieu of providing time off.

(c) Insurance. During Employee’s employment with the Company pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall provide for Employee to:

(i) participate in the Company’s health insurance and disability insurance plans as the same may be modified from time to time;

(ii) receive, if Employee is insurable under usual underwriting standards, term life insurance coverage on Employee’s life, payable to whomever Employee directs, in an amount equal to three (3) times Employee’s base salary, not to exceed a maximum of $1,500,000.00 in coverage, provided that Employee completes the required health statement and application and that Employee’s physical condition does not prevent Employee from qualifying for such insurance coverage under reasonable terms and conditions; and

(d) Retirement. Employee shall be permitted to participate in the Company’s 401(k) retirement investment plan, employee stock purchase plan and executive deferred compensation plan pursuant to the terms of such plans, as the same may be modified from time to time, to the extent such plans are offered to other officers of the Company.

(e) Estate Planning and Other Perquisites. To the extent the Company provides tax and estate planning and related services, or any other perquisites and personal benefits to other officers generally from time to time, such services and perquisites shall be made available to Employee on the same terms and conditions.

(f) Relocation. Employee’s relocation package shall consist of: (i) reasonably priced temporary housing, to include a two bedroom apartment or condominium, in the immediate area surrounding the Company’s headquarters, for a period of one year; (ii) reimbursement for two monthly round trip visits, first-class fare (booked sufficiently in advance to obtain a discounted fare), to Employee’s current Maryland residence during the one year period before Employee relocates

from Maryland to California; (iii) officer level relocation expense reimbursement pursuant to the Company’s relocation policy to also include that the Company will reimburse Employee an additional amount up to but not exceeding $400,000 for relocation expenses that Employee is obliged to pay and actually pays to his former employer as a result of accepting employment with the Company (if submitted no later than December 15, 2006). The amount set forth herein includes the amount that Employee has estimated that he owes to his former employer grossed up to cover income taxes that Employee will owe as a result of this part of his relocation package. Employee agrees that the Company will reduce the dollar value of any Long Term Incentive Award in 2007 by fifty cents ($0.50) for each one dollar ($1.00) that the Company pays for this particular portion of Employee’s relocation allowance (for example, if the Company pays $300,000 to Employee for reimbursement of expenses he pays to his former employer, then the value of any long term incentive award to Employee in 2007 will be reduced by $150,000); and (v) in the event that Employee elects to sell his permanent residence at the time of his permanent relocation to the Company’s headquarters in California, and is unable to privately sell it, despite Employee’s best efforts, at a price that is satisfactory to Employee, then the Company will provide an Appraised Value Offer for the Company or its designee to purchase Employee’s existing primary residence located at 330 Seattle Slew Place, Havre De Grace, MD 21078, in accordance with the Home Purchase Procedures set forth in Exhibit C to this Agreement. If Employee elects to accept the Appraised Value Offer, then Employee shall cooperate fully with the Company to expedite and complete the sale process. If Employee elects not to accept the Appraised Value Offer, Employee’s sole recourse shall be to elect not to have the Company purchase his residence and thereby waive any rights to have the Company purchase his residence. Employee acknowledges that Employee has the duty to make known to the Company, its designee, or any other purchaser the condition of the residence and associated property, particularly any defect that might affect its value, habitability or desirability, and that Employee may be held responsible for all expenses involved in correcting any defects not properly disclosed. Employee acknowledges that the relocation package provided herein is a significant benefit and therefore agrees that if he voluntarily terminates his employment within two years of commencing employment with the Company he shall reimburse the Company for all relocation expenses paid on his behalf pursuant to this Agreement. It is anticipated that Employee will permanently relocate to California within one year of commencing employment with the Company.

6. TAXES. Employee acknowledges that Employee is responsible for all taxes related to Employee’s compensation except for those taxes for which the Company is obligated to pay under applicable law or regulation. Employee agrees that the Company may withhold from Employee’s compensation any amounts that the Company is required to withhold under applicable law or regulation.

7. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.

(a) Termination by the Company Without Substantial Cause. Employee’s employment under this Agreement may be terminated by the Company at any time without substantial cause.

It is expressly understood that if Employee and the Company enter into a new written employment agreement, or if the Company offers Employee a new written employment agreement on substantially the same or better terms, then Employee shall have no right or option to terminate employment for non-renewal of this Agreement. It is further understood that any termination of Employee’s employment by the Company during any such forty-five day period for reasons other than substantial cause or permanent disability shall be deemed to be a termination by Employee for non-renewal pursuant to this section.

Subject to all applicable laws, Employee’s employment under this Agreement may be terminated immediately by the Company in the event Employee becomes permanently disabled. Permanent disability shall be defined as Employee’s failure to perform or being unable to perform all or substantially all of Employee’s duties under this Agreement for a continuous period of more than six (6) months on account of any physical or mental disability, either as mutually agreed to by the parties or as reflected in the opinions of three (3) qualified physicians, one of which has been selected by the Company, one of which has been selected by Employee, and one of which has been selected by the two other physicians jointly.

If Employee chooses to engage in such activities, then the Company shall have no obligation to make further Incentive Payments commencing upon the date which Employee chooses to do so.

The provisions of this Section 7 shall not limit Employee’s rights under or pursuant to any other agreement or understanding with the Company regarding any pension, profit sharing, insurance or other employee benefit plan of the Company to which Employee is entitled pursuant to the terms of such plan.

(k) Treatment of Special Severance and Incentive Payments; Catch-Up Payments. Any Special Severance and Incentive Payments shall be subject to usual and customary employee payroll practices and all applicable withholding requirements.

(ii) While employed by the Company, Employee will have access to and become familiar with Trade Secrets and Confidential Information. Employee acknowledges that Trade Secrets and Confidential Information are owned and shall continue to be owned solely by the Company and/or its affiliates. Employee agrees that Employee will not, at any time, whether during or subsequent to Employee’s employment by the Company and/or its affiliates, use or disclose Trade Secrets and Confidential Information for any competitive purpose or divulge the same to any person other than the Company or persons with respect to whom the Company has given its written consent, unless Employee is compelled to make disclosure by governmental process. In the event Employee believes that Employee is legally required to disclose any Trade Secrets or Confidential Information, Employee shall give reasonable notice to the Company prior to disclosing such information and shall assist the Company in taking such legally permissible steps as are reasonable and necessary to protect the Trade Secrets or Confidential Information, including, but not limited to execution by the receiving party of a non-disclosure agreement in a form acceptable to the Company.

(iii) Employee agrees to execute such secrecy, non-disclosure, patent, trademark, copyright and other proprietary rights agreements, if any, as the Company may from time to time reasonably require.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Employee agrees that, while employed by the Company, Employee will not, directly or indirectly (whether as employee, agent, consultant, holder of a beneficial interest, creditor, or in any other capacity), engage in any business or venture which conflicts with Employee’s duties under this Agreement, including services that are directly or indirectly in competition with the business of the Company or any of its affiliates, or have any interest in any person, firm, corporation, or venture which engages directly or indirectly in competition with the business of the Company or any of its affiliates. For purposes of this section, the ownership of interests in a broadly based mutual fund shall not constitute ownership of the stocks held by the fund.

Employee understands and agrees that all equipment, books, records, customer lists and documents connected with the business of the Company and/or its affiliates are the property of and belong to the Company. Under no circumstances shall Employee remove from the Company’s facilities any of the Company’s and/or its affiliates’ equipment, books, records, documents, lists or any copies of the same without the Company’s permission, nor shall Employee make any copies of the Company’s and/or its affiliates’ books, records, documents or lists for use outside the Company’s office except as specifically authorized by the Company. Employee shall return to the Company and/or its affiliates all equipment, books, records, documents and customer lists belonging to the Company and/or its affiliates upon termination of Employee’s employment with the Company.

9. RIGHTS UPON A CHANGE IN CONTROL.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if upon or at any time during the term of this Agreement there is a Termination Event (as defined below) that occurs within one (1) year following any Change in Control (as defined in Exhibit A), Employee shall be treated as if Employee had been terminated by the Company without substantial cause pursuant to Section 7(a).

(b) A “Termination Event” shall mean the occurrence of any one or more of the following, and in the absence of Employee’s permanent disability (defined in Section 7(d)),

Employee’s death, or any of the factors enumerated in Section 7(b) providing for termination by the Company for substantial cause:

(i) the termination or material breach of this Agreement by the Company;

(ii) a failure by the Company to obtain the assumption of this Agreement by any successor to the Company or any assignee of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or business;

(iii) any material diminishment in the title, position, duties, responsibilities or status that Employee had with the Company, as a publicly traded entity, immediately prior to the Change in Control;

(iv) any reduction, limitation or failure to pay or provide any of the compensation, reimbursable expenses, equity-based incentive awards, incentive programs, or other benefits or perquisites provided to Employee under the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement or understanding between the Company and Employee, or pursuant to the Company’s policies and past practices as of the date immediately prior to the Change in Control; or

(v) any requirement that Employee relocate or any assignment to Employee of duties that would make it unreasonably difficult for Employee to maintain the principal residence Employee had immediately prior to the Change in Control.

(c) To the extent that any or all of the payments and benefits provided for in this Agreement and pursuant to any other agreements with Employee constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and, but for this Section 9, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then the aggregate amount of such payments and benefits shall be reduced by the minimum amounts necessary to equal one dollar less than the amount which would result in such payments and benefits being subject to such excise tax. The reduction, unless the employee elects otherwise, shall be in such order that provides employee with the greatest after-tax amount possible. All determinations required to be made under this Section 9, including whether a payment would result in a parachute payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by a nationally recognized accounting firm agreed to by the Company and Employee. The Company shall pay the cost of the accounting firm, and the accounting firm shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Employee. The determination of the accounting firm shall be final and binding upon the Company and the Employee, except that if, as a result of subsequent events or conditions (including a subsequent payment or the absence of a subsequent payment or a determination by the Internal Revenue Service or applicable court), it is determined that the excess parachute payments, excise tax or any reduction in the amount of payments and benefits, is or should be other than as determined initially, an appropriate adjustment shall be made, as applicable, to reflect the final determination.

10. MISCELLANEOUS.

(a) Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and assigns of the Company.

(b) Entire Understanding. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and no other representations, warranties or agreements whatsoever as to that subject matter have been made by Employee or the Company. This Agreement shall not be modified, amended or terminated except by another instrument in writing executed by the parties hereto. This Agreement replaces and supersedes any and all prior understandings or agreements between Employee and the Company regarding employment.

(c) Notices. Any notice, request, demand, or other communication required or permitted hereunder, shall be deemed properly given when actually received or within five (5) days of mailing by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to Employee at the address currently on file with the Company, and to the Company at:

(d) Headings. The headings of the several sections and paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted solely for the convenience of reference and are not a part of and are not intended to govern, limit or aid in the construction of any term or provision hereof.

(e) Waiver. Failure of either party at any time to require performance by the other of any provision of this Agreement shall in no way affect that party’s rights thereafter to enforce the same, nor shall the waiver by either party of any breach of any provision hereof be held to be a waiver of any succeeding breach of any provision or a waiver of the provision itself.

(f) Applicable Law. This Agreement shall constitute a contract under the internal laws of the State of California and shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of said state as to both interpretation and performance.

(g) Severability. In the event any provision or provisions of this Agreement is or are held invalid, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

Employee agrees to permit the Company and/or its affiliates, and persons or other organizations authorized by the Company and/or its affiliates, to use, publish and distribute advertising or sales promotional literature concerning the products of the Company and/or its affiliates, or the machinery and equipment used in the manufacture thereof, in which Employee’s name and/or pictures of Employee taken in the course of Employee’s provision of services to the Company and/or its affiliates, appear. Employee hereby waives and releases any claim or right Employee may otherwise have arising out of such use, publication or distribution.

11. IRREVOCABLE ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES.

(a) Employee and the Company agree that any dispute, controversy or claim arising hereunder or in any way related to this Agreement, its interpretation, enforceability, or applicability, or relating to Employee’s employment, or the termination thereof, that cannot be resolved by mutual agreement of the parties shall be submitted to binding arbitration. This includes, but is not limited to, alleged violations of federal, state and/or local statutes, claims based on any purported breach of duty arising in contract or tort, including breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, violation of public policy,

violation of any statutory, contractual or common law rights, but excluding workers’ compensation, unemployment matters, or any matter falling within the jurisdiction of the state Labor Commissioner. The parties agree that arbitration is the parties’ only recourse for such claims and hereby waive the right to pursue such claims in any other forum, unless otherwise provided by law. Any court action involving a dispute which is not subject to arbitration shall be stayed pending arbitration of arbitrable disputes.

(b) Employee and the Company agree that the arbitrator shall have the authority to issue provisional relief. Employee and the Company further agree that each has the right, pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure section 1281.8, to apply to a court for a provisional remedy in connection with an arbitrable dispute so as to prevent the arbitration from being rendered ineffective.

(c) Any demand for arbitration shall be in writing and must be communicated to the other party prior to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

(d) The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitration shall be conducted in San Diego by a former or retired judge or attorney with at least 10 years experience in employment-related disputes, or a non-attorney with like experience in the area of dispute, who shall have the power to hear motions, control discovery, conduct hearings and otherwise do all that is necessary to resolve the matter. The parties must mutually agree on the arbitrator. If the parties cannot agree on the arbitrator after their best efforts, an arbitrator will be selected from JAMS pursuant to its Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The Company shall pay the costs of the arbitrator’s fees.

(e) The arbitration will be decided upon a written decision of the arbitrator stating the essential findings and conclusions upon which the award is based. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award damages, if any, to the extent that they are available under applicable law(s). The arbitration award shall be final and binding, and may be entered as a judgment in any court having competent jurisdiction. Either party may seek review pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure section 1286, et seq.

(f) It is expressly understood that the parties have chosen arbitration to avoid the burdens, costs and publicity of a court proceeding, and the arbitrator is expected to handle all aspects of the matter, including discovery and any hearings, in such a way as to minimize the expense, time, burden and publicity of the process, while assuring a fair and just result. In particular, the parties expect that the arbitrator will limit discovery by controlling the amount of discovery that may be taken (e.g., the number of depositions or interrogatories) and by restricting the scope of discovery only to those matters clearly relevant to the dispute. However, at a minimum, each party will be entitled to at least one (1) deposition and shall have access to essential documents and witnesses as determined by the arbitrator.

(g) The provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration or termination of the Agreement, and shall be binding upon the parties.

THE PARTIES HAVE READ SECTION 11 AND IRREVOCABLY AGREE TO ARBITRATE ANY DISPUTE IDENTIFIED ABOVE.

EXHIBIT C

HOME PURCHASE PROCEDURES

Callaway Golf will enter into a contract with a third party agency (the “Relocation Company”) to make an offer and, upon acceptance of the offer, to purchase Employee’s current home pursuant to an Appraised Value Offer according to the procedures set forth below. If Employee accepts said offer, and if the home is purchased by the Relocation Company on behalf of Callaway Golf, then Callaway Golf will be responsible for any loss on the sale of Employee’s home by the Relocation Company and will retain all resale profits on the sale of the home, if any are generated.

The Relocation Company will assist Callaway Golf and Employee in determining an Appraised Value Offer for Employee’s home. The Relocation Company will provide Employee with a list of qualified relocation appraisers who are experienced in determining a Selling Price for such a home. Employee will select three (3) appraisers from the list (Employee may not select an appraiser who has appraised the home within the last six (6) months). Employee shall notify the Relocation Company of his choices, and Relocation Company will order two (2) appraisals using two of the appraisers selected. In turn, each appraiser will contact Employee (or the person Employee designates) to schedule an appointment to do the appraisal.

The two appraisers will determine the Anticipated Selling Price of Employee’s home, which shall be defined as the price at which the property is anticipated to sell in a competitive and open market transaction, assuming an arm’s length transaction, within sixty (60) days. In estimating the Anticipated Selling Price, the appraisers will look at competing listings, recent comparable sales, and other market variables through the eyes of a typical buyer.

In conjunction with the appraisal process, the Relocation Company will order all appropriate inspections at Callaway Golf’s expense. Other inspections may be ordered, as recommended by the appraisers, realtors, or inspectors. Employee will cooperate with the Relocation Company and any and all appraisers, it being understood that an Appraised Value Offer cannot be made without the results of all inspections.

The appraisers will contact the Relocation Company with the results of their appraisals, including their Anticipated Selling Prices, and will follow up with written appraisal reports. The reports will be reviewed for accuracy and consistency by the Relocation Company. Approximately three (3) weeks from the date the last appraiser visits Employee’s home, the Relocation Company will contact Employee to present an Appraised Value Offer and all inspection results, including copies of all appraisals.

The Appraised Value Offer will be the average of the two (2) Anticipated Selling Prices submitted by the appraisers. If the two Anticipated Selling Prices differ by more than five percent (5%), a third appraisal will be ordered (using the third appraiser Employee properly selected from the list provided by the Relocation Company). If three appraisals are needed, then the Appraised Value Offer will be the average of the two (2) closest Anticipated Selling Prices.

Employee shall have ten (10) days to accept the offer starting upon the day the Appraised Value Offer is communicated to Employee. Employee shall communicate his acceptance, in writing to the Relocation Company. If Employee chooses to accept the Appraised Value Offer from the Relocation Company, Contracts of Sale, a deed package, and all necessary documents required to sell Employee’s home to the Relocation Company will be forwarded to Employee. Prompt execution and notarization of these documents will be required if Employee elects to accept the Appraised Value Offer. If Employee has not previously terminated any existing listing agreement, then Employee will

be responsible for payment of any commission owed to any agent upon sale to the Relocation Company. If Employee does not accept the Appraised Value Offer within ten (10) days, it shall expire by its own terms and Callaway Golf shall thereafter have no further duty to assist Employee with the sale of Employee’s home.

If Employee accepts the Appraised Value Offer, Callaway Golf, through the Relocation Company, will assume responsibility of all mortgage payments, utilities, and maintenance of the home as of the date of possession. Possession is defined as the day Employee fully executes the Contracts of Sale or vacates, whichever is later.

Employee’s Equity will be the Appraised Value Offer minus the mortgage balance, mortgage interest prorations, tax prorations, costs of any repairs, and all other liens against the property. The Equity will be paid to Employee directly by the Relocation Company or Callaway Golf. Employee has no expectation of any payments other than payment of the Equity.

Employee shall be responsible for all maintenance and repair of the property and all expenses associated with the property, including mortgage payments, until such time as Callaway Golf and/or the Relocation Company take possession. During the implementation of these Home Purchase Procedures, Employee shall reasonably cooperate with Callaway Golf and the Relocation Company in any efforts to secure the sale of the property to a third party. It is acknowledged that the Relocation Company will be marketing the property on behalf of Callaway Golf during this time, and that Employee shall cooperate in keeping it in order and scheduling showings.

Disclosure: it is the duty of the seller to make known or public to a buyer the condition of the property, particularly with respect to any defect that could affect its value, habitability, or desirability. Employee may be held responsible for all expenses involved in correcting defect(s) or problems that are not disclosed and subsequently discovered.
