I’ve played all the golf balls out there from Top Flite to Titleist and literally everything in between. I’m always looking for those extra few yards or better short game spin. Most of the higher end golf balls cost over $45. There has to be comparable golf balls that don’t cost that much, maybe a company who isn’t paying hundreds of tour pros’ or selling wholesale to retailers who must mark the price up to make a profit. My point…
I got fitted about 2 years ago for a driver at high end fitting company. It was a very cool experience and I was there for about 1.5 hours trying numerous drivers and shaft combinations. I hit over 100 shots and after everything was said and done, the fitter told me I need to upgrade to a higher end shaft which would improve my dispersion. I ordered a new Callaway driver with an Accra shaft. I had never heard of…
There are so many high end golf balls on the market, yet they cost so much money. Finding a high quality golf ball at a fair price is always of interest to me. Sugar Golf is a golf ball company, and they sell golf balls direct to consumer (DTC). DTC means no added costs like the major brand name golf ball manufacturers who have to pay retailers, tour pros, advertising, and others to play their golf ball which adds a…
There are thousands of divot tools out there, and I’ve written about more than a handful. From the free tools supplied by pro shops, to high-end models with loads of added features, I’ve always been a fan of unique and innovative divot tools. No tool as a cool as the one that I just tested from Kraken Golf! When I started using a Kraken divot tool, everyone in my group asked, “where did you get that?” The divot tool is…
I’ve ever seen a golf tee that adjusts in height.. until now! Yatta Golf has come out with a full adjustable golf tee that can accommodate your driver all the way down to a iron teed low to the ground. The Telos golf tee is 3 ¼ inches long, is USGA and R&A conforming and one pack of three tees will last you at least a full season. The Telos golf tees are impact modified polymer for extreme durability and…
We’ve all seen PGA Pro’s pull those Little Green Golf Books out of their back pocket. I’ve always imagined having my own green book, wondering if I’d then start making more puts or stop missing the cup by 4 feet? The day has finally come where we can all have our own Green Golf Book for our favorite courses! Golf Logix has launched their own Golf Green Books, representing over 14,000 different courses. Naturally, I just had to get one…
Staying hydrated on the golf course is extremely important, particularly during the hot and humid summer months. I’ve always been a proponent of drinking water for a long time, as many sports drinks have too much sugar for my liking. My concern with simply drinking plain water is that I’m not getting the necessary electrolytes to replenish my body. This is why I began my search for a non-sugar sports drink that would help me on the golf course. My search resulted…
We’ve all see it – after a long hot day on the golf course, we find ourselves wearing hats that have retained an ugly white sweat stain. Unfortunately, I’ve had my fair share of ruined hats too. Starting in June, and running all the way through September, the heat and humidity are quite elevated where I live and play on the East Coast. As I write this review in late July, today’s temperatures in my home town are expected to…
I always try to get to the golf course an hour or so early to get my tempo and rhythm warm-ups in prior to going to the driving range. To play your best, you’ve got to have good swing-tempo and rhythm. I’ve tried many warm-up tools, including the tool with the “orange ball”. Yet, I have found them all to be too flexible, and in the end, they never helped smooth-out my swing. My newest find is the Power Flex…
Over my years of golfing every 4 – 5 times per week, I’ve developed what my doctor refers to “Golfer’s Elbow” in my left arm. As a general practice, I use a simple compression sleeve to try and alleviate the dull ache in my elbow. Recently I tested Kryofit Sport’s unique cold-compression sleeve with integral icepacks built-in. All I can say is, “Wow!” The compression, combined with the cold pack, provides real relief to my elbow’s aches and pains. Kryofit…
