I’ve witnessed several injuries happen on the golf course. I’ve unfortunately never carried anything in my golf bag that could help any of those injured people. From simple bee stings, to cuts, as well as a flipped golf cart, I can say that I’ve seen my fair share of golf-related injuries. We should all be somewhat prepared for simple incidents that can happen on a golf course. Golf bags have numerous pockets, so carrying a simple first aid kit in…
Most amateur golfers don’t know all the rules of the game. I can personally recall several occasions where I really was not positive what to do in a specific situation. There are so many rules, and when a shot goes array, we should all want to know the correct way to move forward. In these special cases, golfers should know where we’re supposed to drop our ball, the number of club lengths (if any) that we get, definitions of hazards…
There are tons of golf club head covers out there, from basic, to bulletproof, to just plain dull and boring. Reinland Golf not only makes really attractive head covers for drivers, fairway woods and putters, but every head cover is handmade in the U.S.A.! Reinland’s head covers are 100% wool and fleece lined. In my opinion, their covers are very unique and like no other I’ve seen. I especially like that there are many head cover styles to choose from,…
Let’s be honest – most drivers look very similar. When you are on the tee box and getting ready to hit your tee shot, no one can tell what brand of driver you are using. I’ve found something that will make your driver the “talk of the club”, with everyone asking how they can get their driver to look as unique and personalized as yours. ClubCrowns are not stickers, decals or paint. They use revolutionary technology to add a graphic…
Marking a golf ball is definitely a good idea. So many people play the same ball, and without any special markings, there is no way to identify your ball, as opposed to someone else’s in your group, who just happens to be playing the same ball. Playing the exact same golf ball happens more than people think, and that’s why you see tour professionals always mark their golf balls with something that specifically identifies their golf ball. The last thing…
Can a golf tee add yards to your drives? I’ve been searching for the golf tee that can extend my drives for a long time. I heard about Champ Fly Pro Tees from someone at my club, so I searched them out online. I’m always looking for those “extra yards” without changing my swing. The Champ Fly Pro Tee packaging claims that their tees are the longest, the most accurate and the most durable. I’ve tried many other tees, and…
I use a divot tool all the time and keep it in my pocket. Over the years, I’ve had many types of divot tools, some with one prong and some with two; some were made of plastic and some metal. There are certainly tons of divot tools on the market and each one, if used properly, will help maintain the putting surface and is a courtesy to the golfer(s) following you. Often, you’ll even see signs requesting that golfers repair…
Do golf cart laser mounts really work? After using a handheld GPS unit for more than 7 years, I grew tired of only getting readings to the front, middle and back of the greens on my course (it has elevated greens). Recently, I took that plunge and purchased a new Bushnell Pro X2 with the Slope Edition. It’s my opinion that I get the best use out of the Bushnell when mounting it directly to the cart, instead of leaving…
Can I safely hit a golf ball indoors? There’s nothing worse than being cooped up during the long winter months. I personally find that the downtime really hurts my golf game and I wish I could be playing or at least hitting golf balls. In my area there no are heated driving ranges so winter is the worst time of the year. Fortunately, I found a really cool product that lets you hit golf balls indoors and also provides great…
I play 2-3 times a week during the spring, summer and fall months, and if not for winter, I would play year round. I’ve tried every golf ball, and I mean everyone, from Pro V1, to Top Flite, Chrome Soft, to Taylormade TPX, to Bridgestone, to Wilson Duo, to Pinnacle. I’m always looking to gain those extra yards or that extra spin that so many balls claim to offer. Due to my swing speed being in the mid 80’s, I…
