There are countless divot tools and ball markers available on the market today. Divot tools range from the complimentary plastic ones provided by golf courses to high end tools that cost in excess of $150! Of course, the most important thing about a good divot tool is that it works when used to repair ball marks on the green. I’ve carried lots of different divot tools and ball markers over the years, but recently I came across a unique company…

This blog contains previous reviews of different types of ball markers, all of which are unique in their own way. The ball markers produced by Golf Ball Guts “take the prize” as their markers are manufactured from actual golf balls! Golf Ball Guts offers ball markers using branded golf balls from Titleist, TaylorMade, Callaway and many other golf balls manufacturers. At just about 1/8” thick, these markers are very thin. The company also offers custom engraving on one or both sides…
While at the practice green, I noticed a person in my group that was using an unusual looking apparatus which was connected to his putter. As I watched him putt, I could clearly see that this “gadget” appeared to have removed the wrist action from his putting stroke. Interestingly, he explained that he had bought this specific putting training aid over 10 years ago. Since he was now having some putting issues, he decided to take it out of storage…
Today’s golfer keeps his/her Smartphone with them while on the course and finding easy-access ways to view incoming text messages and emails is a hassle. I golf with my phone in my cart’s small compartment, and when I hear that I have an incoming message, it’s a scramble to get to my phone. The Click Caddie allows you to keep golfing without ever missing a call, text, or email. By using the Click Caddie’s very strong magnet or its silicone…

I’ve played with virtually all the major putter brands – from Scotty Cameron to Ping and Odyssey to TaylorMade. I continue to search for a putter that has what I consider to be the perfect balance of feel, weight and roll. For the past 10 years, I’ve chosen to use mallet-style putters and typically add 1 or 2 to my arsenal annually. When I came across a premium direct-to-consumer putter at a very reasonable price (around $100), I had to try…
There’s a good deal of talk out there about CBD and golf. With many PGA players now sponsoring CBD merchandise, I decided to try a few products, with the first one on my list being CBD chewing gum from a company called Per Os Biosciences. This company offers two CBD products – gum and mints, both of which are THC Free, so there’s no “high” associated with the use of either of these products. Here are a few standouts from…
I’ve never really thought about extending the life of my golf gloves. After the round is over, I simply throw the glove that I used into my golf bag’s pocket, regardless of how damp the glove is from moisture contact. Not surprisingly, my gloves soon become worn and feel “used. Like most golfers, I really like the feel of a new glove. After a lot of searching, I found the GloveLast, which is a product that keeps your golf glove…
Correct hand placement has always been a personal challenge. When a strong hand position doesn’t seem to work, I’ll then shift to a weaker grip. Locating my best hand position is often a struggle. The Lock-in Golf Grip is a simple training aid designed to help the golfer locate the proper hand position. This grip will simply attaches to virtually any golf club and comes with 2 straight line site markers that screw into the butt end of the golf…
I must admit it that in more than a few instances, I’ve chomped down on a golf tee or two. This usually occurs directly after a poor tee shot. Although I’m not convinced that my chewing habit necessarily helps me better cope with my own frustrations, I have seen other golfers chomping down on their golf tees as well, so perhaps this odd behavior of mine may be more common than I think? To all my fellow tee-chompers, allow me…
