On November 4th, 2025, Skyworx Drone Shows illuminated the skies above Pinehurst Resort & Country Club with a fully customized 300-drone performance created exclusively for a private John Deere corporate event.

Creatively Combining Two Historic Brands

The creative direction centered on celebrating John Deere’s legacy while honoring Pinehurst’s rich golf history. Skyworx designed formations featuring John Deere lawn mowers, the company’s signature logo, and animated equipment that moved in perfect synchronization. These displays were woven together with imagery of Pinehurst, along with golf-themed animations such as logos, and flowing swing sequences.

A highlight of the show came from the visual tributes to some of Pinehurst’s most defining golf moments. A glowing aerial silhouette brought Payne Stewart’s unforgettable 1999 U.S. Open victory and iconic 18th-green celebration to life, resonating deeply with the audience. 

This event also marked a showcase of Skyworx Drone Shows’ newest drone technology. The upgraded system features drones that launch and land directly from their own carrying cases, dramatically speeding up setup and reducing the required launch footprint. This innovation is especially valuable in premium settings like Pinehurst, where preserving space, maintaining the aesthetic environment, and minimizing operational disturbance are top priorities. The new drones are also significantly brighter and more precise, enabling tighter formations, smoother animations, and crystal-clear designs that brought every John Deere and Pinehurst element to life.

The result was a breathtaking fusion of golf history, corporate storytelling, and next-generation aerial artistry. The John Deere drone show at Pinehurst showcased what Skyworx does best: delivering elevated, detail-rich, high-impact experiences that leave audiences talking long after the lights fade.
