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 ...

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 ...

If 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 ...

Being a Florida Gator fan, it pains me tremendously to review this Alabama Crimson Tide Divot Tool & Ball Marker. But I must feature them and give them their "props" for winning the 2009 NCAA Football Championship. If you're a ‘Bama fan, then you'll want to support ...

Roll Tide! Congrats to the 2009 NCAA Football Champions, the Alabama Crimson Tide. Of course if you are fan (and a golfer) you will need to get your Alabama Crimson Tide Hat Clip & Ball markers. You don't have to get Alabama, you can get any ...

The first time is saw one of these, I didn't realize it was a decal. I thought, "Wow, that's really cool that somebody loves golf so much, he'd drive a golf ball into his car window and just leave it there."

I spent a lot of time trying to ...

The last time I played golf with my buddies, I got a dirty look because I made so much noise rifling through my golf bag trying to find a long tee. The inside of my golf bag looks like a bomb exploded inside it and filled it full ...

"If there's no GOLF in heaven - I'm not goin'!" My sentiments exactly!

So maybe you're a little obsessed with golf. Perhaps your television is always on the Golf Channel, you receive Golf Digest monthly, and of course, your homepage is Zipgolfer.com. This is all perfectly ...

I've been reading this magazine for the last twenty years. (I'm a slow reader.) Golf Digest is the quintessential golf magazine. There are others, but this is the best one.

One reason that makes them the best is they get all the top tour pros and teachers to ...

Oakley is your market leader in sports eyewear. If these shades look familiar, it's because you probably saw them on Tour pros Annika Sorenstam or Ian Poulter. They're designed specifically for golfers and are fashionable to boot.

The frames are very lightweight but also very durable. The ...

This is an affordable golf GPS by Garmin compared to some of the leading brands. Garmin of course invented the GPS, and GolfLogix has designed a basic interface to give you yardages while you play your favorite course.

The first thing I will tell you is there is a ...

Golf is no longer a sport for us dorks and old guys. The LPGA tour is gaining more and more popularity, and the kids are all getting on the bandwagon. No wonder I can never get a tee time. (Of course, I'm just kidding; I ...

I wish I were a girl so I could sport one of these cool Gogie hats. (Did I just say that? I really should save these confessions for my group therapy.)

Seriously though, I really like this product. Vicki Waldorf, wife of PGA Tour pro Duffy Waldorf, ...

I'm sure you and your golf buddies have had this argument a few times: "Who is the best golfer ever?" Or "Who are the greatest golfers of all time?" "If all the greats could play together in their prime, who would come out ahead, and how much cash ...

This bestseller is aptly named, "A Good Walk Spoiled." I believe John Feinstein borrowed the title from Mark Twain, and anybody who's played the game can relate. I read this book four years ago, and it still stands as one of the best golf books ...

I don't remember where I was when Kennedy was shot or when Elvis died, but I'll never forget the 2008 US Open. This played out more dramatically than a Walt Disney movie. (To confess, I was not born yet when Kennedy was shot, and I was just 7 ...

If you are a golf geek like me, then you remember the 2008 US Open like it was yesterday. This tournament played out more dramatically than the movie Sea Biscuit, and Rocco Mediate was more likable and easier to root for than Rocky Balboa.

For those of you that are ...

"Hey Arnie, does this purple sweater make me look fat?"

Okay, perhaps that's not what Jack is saying to Arnold. I apologize. I have nothing but the utmost respect for these two masters. This photo was taken at the 1993 Masters. It's a cool photo of ...

I've told you about my golf den... the one that I sit in and smoke my pipe and wax philosophical? Don't believe the rumors that it's really a small closet in my bedroom with one folding chair and a cheap card table.

This is the perfect piece of art to hang ...

Grab your shag bag and throw it in the back of your Jag! Every serious golfer has a shag bag in the trunk of their car. When you have a shagger full of balls, you don't need anything more than one golf club and an open field.

Some of the best ...

"Teed Up Teed me off!" was one of the quotes I've seen about this product.

Uh oh.

It looks like such a great idea, too. The Teed Up Portable Driving Range is a simple ball holder that can handle 45 golf balls, and a mechanism that automatically places the ball on the tee... ...

Really Callaway? Really? Why are we manufacturing these enormous wrap-around sunglasses that look like we just got out of the eye doctor?

David Duval was cool when he wore these. Was. Wore. Past tense, folks. His last real win was in 200,1 for goodness' sake. (Ok, ...

"Golf is a lifetime sport."

Sure is. You can spend your entire life looking for that same feeling that you experienced when you were 20 and hit a 178 yard tee shot within six inches of the hole.

One time. But that's all it takes, doesn't it folks?

Anyway, it is ...

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the technology.

ChaChaChaChaChaCha.... Man I loved that show. This is why I was excited to see the Bionic Women's Silver Golf Gloves. So imagine my slight disappointment when no robot parts fit into the equation. No '70s music either. ...

Golf Pride is one of the leaders in golf grips. This means they make a good quality grip, but you're going to pay a little more for them. These Multi-Compound Cord grips join a black velvet cord section in the upper hand area with a soft lower portion. ...

Wow. Fire up the Flex Capacitor, Marty -- we are going Back... to the Future!

This watch laughs in the face of those who are looking for a mere "timepiece." This thing is waaaaay more. It's more than an altimeter and barometer that sends alerts if conditions change ...

Sing it with me: "Baby, if you ever wondered... Wondered whatever became of me… I'm living on the air in Cincinnati... Cincinnati WKRP." (This song was the theme from the old TV show WKRP in Cincinnati.)

Are you a fan of the Cincinnati "Bungels?" I am so, so sorry. One thing ...

Here are some cool shades to wear out on the links. These Nike Revive Sunglasses utilize some of the latest technology that can improve your golf games.

No, they aren't going to fix your slice! They will keep you cool though. (I mean literally.) They have a ventilated nose ...

True story: I was playing in a golf tournament last summer. I kept hearing this annoying, very distracting sound. It sounded like metal banging together with metal. Finally, while walking up the fairway with my bag on my back, one of the golfers in my pairing walked up ...

Sing it with me: "Can you tell me how to get, how to get to Sesame Street??"

Check out this cool Ernie Head Cover! You remember Ernie and Bert, don't you? The stars of that old kid's television show, Sesame Street. Without Sesame Street, none of us would be ...

It's important to change your grips often. If you have worn grips, you are going to be choking the club, and that is going lead to swing problems.

Harvey Penick (the author of the Little Red Book) said you should hold a golf club like a baby bird -- firm enough ...

These are gorgeous grips. I really like them. The blue on black is very cool.

Let's talk about these Winn grips:

Winn grips are one of the most popular grips out there. When I think of Winn grips, I immediately think of a nice soft feel. These particular grips ...

They say that frequent re-gripping of your golf clubs will save you 3 to 4 strokes a round. I'm not sure who they are, but I'm guessing they sell grips.

That being said, I actually buy it this time. Most golf pros with tell you that it's important to have ...

Here's a cool sporty pair of sunglasses brought to you by Nike that you may want to add to your precious golf arsenal. These glasses are both stylish and functional.

The Nike Pounce Sunglasses are perfect for the golfer because they have that wrap-around style and they grip your head for stability ...

My golf game is so bright I have to wear shades! (Get it? Hahaha!) I know. It's really not that clever. I actually stole if from that song.

However, it is important to get yourself a good pair of sunglasses while whacking the ball around the golf ...

When taking "a good walk spoiled" (as Mark Twain characterized golf), it's important to have a good pair of sunglasses.

One problem I have out on the links is I'm constantly taking my shades off and putting them back on. Every time a cloud comes over or you walk into ...

Attention Nike Execs: What are you thinking?

There are certain words that we golfers try to eliminate from our vocabulary. At the top of the list is the word "shank." We don't like to say it. We don't like to even think it (and frankly, I'm getting the heebie-jeebies ...

I think David Duval was the first PGA Tour golfer to make wearing sunglasses on the golf course cool. Remember he used to wear those big wrap-around orange shades? After that, guys out on my course started showing up with those big things on and trying to hit the ball ...

There's really only one thing more important on the golf course than shooting good rounds, and that is looking cool. Furthermore, it is an art to look cool (especially when you have my golf game).

Nevertheless, if you practice, you can shank a ball into the woods -- then just strike a ...

Do you sometimes have problems reading small print?

I SAID, "DO YOU SOMETIMES HAVE PROBLEMS READING SMALL PRINT?!"

I'm sorry, that's not funny. I was taught to respect my elders...  I SAID, "I WAS TAUGHT TO RESPECT MY ELDERS!"

Okay, I know, I know -- still not funny. It won't happen again. ...

I'm all for practicing golf when you're supposed to be doing other things. Really. I am. You know, like when you know you should be mowing the lawn, but you found an old ball lying in the grass. Then, since the mower needed gas, you go to the ...

"We can build him stronger!"  Do you remember this from the opening to that old TV show starring Lee Majors as The 50 Million Dollar Man? I think this show was on in the late '70s or early '80s. (I am really dating myself now.) ...

This at first looks like a very cool idea for a product. A quick way to carry balls to a range or a field for a little practice -- and then, when you're ready to hit, simply lower the ramp. And out pops a ball.

It's called the "Tee-It-Up" Golf ball ...

Here's a big ol' net! Wow, are we going fishing? This 20 X 25 Fish Net is designed for a golf backstop, softball, lacrosse, volleyball, etc. I suppose you could use it for soccer as well, and perhaps wrangling in your kids when it's time for dinner.

This ...

The debate rages: Glove, or No Glove?

Some think that a glove makes you look like an amateur (which is strange because so many tour players wear them). Some say that a glove gives you a more "accomplished" look -- you know, like you really know what you're doing (which is ...

What do we get Dad? Tie. Nah, too many already. Sweater. He always takes them back -- no clothes! Something electronic. This is Dad, remember? Right. Something with golf? What is there that's left?

I have it, guys. The Victorinox Swiss ...

Here's another GPS golf device. I tell you what -- between our cell phones, our iPods, our Blackberrys and now our golf GPS, we're just going to be a species of people walking around with our heads down punching buttons and living in the Matrix.

This Sonocaddie is a more economical ...

Oh my goodness. I just stopped laughing and wiped my eyes.

This product is classic. I have literally never seen one of these in my life. It is none other than the Golf Shop Live Ballfinder Scout Complete System. Not just a finder. It's a system, ...

Here's a pretty fancy rangefinder. Unless you're a tour caddie, I'm not sure I can see dropping this kind of scratch on a rangefinder. This guy is slick though. I doubt you're going to find a nicer one.

Let's take a look at some of the features. The first ...

I'm not a big range finder guy. I think I got soured on them because of a certain incident...

One time I played in a OGA tournament and was paired with this guy who used one on every single shot. I'm not exaggerating. He would be 35 feet ...
