US Kids Junior Golf Clubs, Tour Series Set of 10 w/ Driver

Posted on: Mar 11

US Kids Junior Golf Clubs, Tour SeriesHere's a set of golf clubs for your little golf prodigy. These are from the US Kids Golf Tour Series. They are designed for more advanced children who have been playing golf and have a higher swing speed than the beginner.

This set comes with ten golf clubs, a big oversize driver, a 3 wood, 4 hybrid, irons 5 through wedge, with a pitching wedge, a gap wedge, and a sand wedge.

The biggest differences between these Tour Series and the Ultralight Series are the clubhead weight, the shaft stiffness, and the more advanced materials. This 63-inch-tall series is for swing speeds of 74 mph and over. If you are not sure of your child's swing speed, he can be tested at most pro shops, golf shops, or driving ranges for free. (Another way might be: If your kid is good enough to go get his swing speed tested at a pro shop, then he's good enough to appreciate these golf clubs.)

This set is best for children who are between 61.5 inches to 64.5 inches. If your child is just starting out, don't buy this set -- check out the US Kids 2008 Ultralight Green Series.

Daito Golf Gadget Greenberry | Digital Putting Practice & Training Aide

Posted on: Mar 10

Daito Golf Gadget Greenberry This is an interesting golf gadget. It's a putting trainer. The Greenberry uses physics and "advance computing technology" to measure your speed and putting distance.

The way it works is: you put this down on whatever you are putting on (your carpet, or outside on an actual green) and calibrate the speed of the green, and then stroke a putt. The device will tell you how hard you hit it and how far the putt went. With this information while you practice, you can improve your technique and feel.

I'm not a big fan of this, but there are two redeeming qualities. First, it's great if you want to practice long putts in a confined area, like your basement or living room. You can practice the feel of a 50-foot putt in a room that is only 8 by 10.

The other cool thing is that the Greenberry will tell you the stimpmeter of the greens on your home course. Just take it with you on your next round of golf, and the machine will calibrate this for you. I've been privy many times to the guys speculating the speed of the greens - especially if they've been shaved down to play very quick. This is the first gadget I've seen that will actually read this for you.

As far as improving your putting, I'd save my money, or spend it on the Stance Minder Training System. This is a great tool to teach you to line up square to your target line and stroke your putts square.

US Kids Junior Golf Club Set, Ultralight Green | Includes Carry Stand Bag

Posted on: Mar 9

US Kids Junior Golf Club Set,So it's time to get the bambino (or bambi-nette) a set of golf clubs. This is a pretty snazzy beginner set. This set of US Kids 2008 has five golf clubs including a driver and a putter.

This Ultralight Series is designed for the first-time golfer made with light clubheads and flexible shafts. The shafts are made from a very light composite which are all matched (just like our big boy golf clubs).

You should buy golf clubs based on your child's height. I recommend these for kids whose height ranges from 48 inches to 54 inches tall. I also would recommend you get your kid a lesson with a club pro, or a summer kid's group where they will learn the game correctly from the beginning.

My favorite thing about this set is the golf bag. This is the lightweight stand bag that you carry like a backpack. These are very popular for golfers at all levels, and is very similar to the one I use regularly. I'm sure your golf-pro-to-be is going to like it.

If, by chance, your child has already been playing for a while and you're looking for a higher quality set, check out the US Kids Golf Tour Series. These clubs are made with better and heavier materials with stiffer shafts.

Titleist Iron Golf Club, Cavity Back AP-2 | Project X Shafts Stiff

Posted on: Mar 8

Titleist Iron Golf Club, Cavity BackYou're looking at a player's iron by Titleist. Don't be fooled by the cavity back; this iron still demands a good level of skill. But if you are a mid to low handicapper, you are going to love it.

PGA Tour pro Ryan Palmer swings these irons, and he used them to win the 2010 Sony Open. They are a very handsome iron with a nice combination of workability and forgiveness. The faces are forged cavity backs with a classic blade look. The shafts are a stiff Project X.

The best thing about these irons is the incredible feel. Of course, Titleist is a market leader, and they know how to make good irons. The feel of these are very responsive, and you will really appreciate the feedback you get in your hands when you miss-hit a shot. Conversely, when you hit the ball on the sweet spot… Oh what a feeling!

I would recommend these irons to players with a handicap of 13 or less. You will really appreciate the handsome craftsmanship as well as the tremendous workability and relative forgiveness.

If you aren't quite down to a 13 yet, check out these TaylorMade R9s. It's a more forgiving cavity back designed for mid to high handicappers.

Mens Waterproof Golf Shoes Etonic GSOK | Spikeless Black & White Saddle Shoe

Posted on: Mar 7

Mens Golf Waterproof Shoes Etonic GSOK This Etonic Men's GSOK golf shoe is very popular because it is so comfortable. The secret is in the patented "SOK" which conforms to your foot along with the memory foam that hugs the top of your in-step and ankle.

"Look Ma, No spikes!" Another cool quality that I like about these shoes is there are no cleats or spikes. Instead, they have a rugged bottom made with the Goodyear Tri-Zone Traction System. It looks a lot like the bottom of one of my favorite trail running shoes, only these Etonics have more traction.

The foot bed is made of a high-density Poliyou and is removable. This foot bed helps wick moisture away from your feet and keep your dogs warm and dry.

Finally, these Etonic GSOK are waterproof and have a one-year waterproof warranty. This is a must for you year-round golfers that go out in less then desirable conditions.

I would recommend these shoes to all golfers, especially those who are looking for a comfortable, lightweight shoe that is completely waterproof. This shoe is comparable to the Footjoy Golf DryJoys. This is another comfortable waterproof shoe that I would recommend.

Waterproof Golf Hat by Snake Eyes | Men’s Wide Brim Black

Posted on: Mar 6

Waterproof Golf Hat by Snake Eyes Here's an interesting looking rain hat. And by interesting, of course I mean ugly.

The hat is designed to keep your head dry when playing out on the links. It "smooshes" up very compact and will fit in any pocket in your golf bag. It is a bucket-style hat with an elastic band made of 100% waterproof polyester.

The pros: It's comfortable... and, hmmm... Did I mention it's comfortable? Oh, and it is waterproof too.

The cons: It's ugly. You can't see this in the picture, but this hat actually has a logo on it. The hat says "Snake Eyes" on it. Apparently the designers didn't think the hat was quite ugly enough before they printed their Snake Eyes logo on it. Finally, it's a little too stretchy to fit your head secure enough so as to not blow off in a stiff wind.

If you want to check out a really great rain hat that will keep your head warm and dry, please take a look at the Outdoor Research Seattle Sombrero. This is a cool hat that has been tested in the heavy downpours of the Northwest. It is guaranteed to keep you dry and doesn't look silly.

GustBuster Black Golf Umbrella | Windproof & Manual w/ Lifetime Warranty, 48 Inch

Posted on: Mar 5

GustBuster Black Golf Umbrella Sing it with me: "Raindrops keep falling on my head… "

I live in Portland, OR, where we have two kinds of weather in the winter: Raining Hard, and Drizzle. An avid golfer like me needs everything to be waterproof right down to my underwear (which comes in handy for many reasons) and, of course, a trusty umbrella.

I'm not sure you're going to find a better one than this GustBuster. This bad boy has been tested at the College of Aeronautics in Queens, NY, and will not invert in winds of 55 miles per hour. It has been featured on CNN, GoodDay NY, Regis and Kathy Lee, and Talk Soup.

The coolest thing about it for us golfers is the fiberglass shaft. This is important for those rounds we play in the lighting. Sure, we still may be swinging our steel shafted irons, but at least our umbrella is fiberglass! I also like the classic looking hardwood J-handle.

The umbrella measures 48 inches in diameter and is 36 inches long. This is the manual version. It also comes in an automatic. Finally, it comes with a lifetime warranty, so I guess that means this is the last umbrella you're going to need to buy

"…but that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red…" Who cares if it's raining, let's go golfing.

Outdoor Research Brim Hat, Seattle Sombrero | Award Winning Golf Outdoor Gear

Posted on: Mar 4

Outdoor Research Brim Hat, SeattleIf Indiana Jones lived in Seattle, this would be his hat of choice. It has been tested in the Northwest, where I can confirm we get some crazy downpours. This bad boy should be in every golfers' golf bag that lives in a rainy area.

This hat comes with a "Guaranteed To Keep You Dry" certification and was Backpacker Magazine's 2005 Editor's Choice Gold Award winner. The shell is waterproof and breathable, made with a 3-layer 70D Taslan GORE-TEX fabric crown, and the seams are taped. The inside is a brushed tricot lining which is soft and wicks away perspiration. The brim is foam-stiffened and is specially shaped to direct water away from you melon. What's more is the foam makes the hat float, so don't worry about falling in the lake while searching for your lost golf ball.

My favorite thing about the hat is the brim. Not only does it direct the water away from you head, but there are also hook/loop tabs on the brim and dome that allow you to flip up the sides for greater visibility.

The hat is very comfortable and lightweight and cinches to your head with an adjustable elastic band and a removable chin cord. However, I'm pretty sure Indiana would never wear it with the chin chord attached!

Bag Boy Electric Golf Cart | Trolley & Remote Control Navigator 2

Posted on: Mar 3

Bag Boy Navigator 2 How cool is this?! The problem with me owning one of these remote control electric carts is that I'd want to play with it more then I'd want to play golf. I'd be driving the thing all over the golf course, delivering beers to my friends, trying to run over their golf bags, and just generally being a big clown.

Hopefully, if you are getting ready to purchase one of these, you are much more mature than I am. These are really great, especially for you folks that have back problems and can't handle the strain of pushing or carrying your clubs. Or perhaps you just like cool gadgets and want to impress your friends.

The Bag Boy 2009 Navigator 2 maintains a straight path even on the roughest of terrains. It needs no calibrations and has no trouble with interference from steel shafts or metal buildings. This newer model features a new soft braking with wider wheels, it's more compact when folded, has twin calibrated 140 watt motors, a 360 degree swivel front wheel with suspension, and handle-mounted controls with a remote control.

My favorite thing (other than the fact that I can harass my golfing buddies with it) is the removable seat with storage compartment. Not only will it drag your clubs around for you all day, but it provides a comfortable seat to take a load off your feet. This is the best tool for seniors who still enjoy walking the course.

Having this electric cart is the next best thing to having your own caddie. Heck, while you're at it, add the Sky Caddie SG5 Bonus Pack -- a golf GPS system that gives you exact yardages -- and you pretty much have a complete virtual caddie!

Marmot Men’s Waterproof Rain Coat | Outdoor Golf Jacket PreCip

Posted on: Mar 2

Marmot Men's Waterproof Rain Coat If you are going to play this game, you better have a good rain coat. I like this Marmot Men's PreCip Rain Jacket because it folds up very compact and fits very easily in my golf bag.

If this jacket doesn't keep you dry, nothing will. It is 100-percent seam taped. The reason golfer are going to appreciate this jacket, besides the fact it fits in your bag, is it has a patented Angel-Wing Movement technology. This allows your arms full range of motion, which is obviously essential when swinging the golf club.

The jacket has zippered vents in the underarms and a hood that allows good visibility. Another cool feature that golfers will appreciate (but designed with backpackers in mind) is the slanted chest pockets. These allow access while still wearing your golf bag on your back. Thus, you don't have to set your bag down to go for that granola bar or tissue you have tucked in your shirt.

I would recommend this jacket for all golfers. If you live in a place where it rains frequently like I do, you should buy a full rain suit with pants. I like the Frogg Toggs Pro Action Classic Suit. This is also compact and will fit in your golf bag very nicely.
