Tink da Yankees are gonna win da pennant? Jeets is gonna have another wicked yeah and A-Rod is da man… Ay - faggettabout it!"

It pains me to write this review on this sharp-looking Yankees baseball cap. The thing about the Yankees is: you either love them or hate them. There is no in between. And suffice to say, I'm not buying the hat. But you certainly can. Actually, you can get any sports team you want. If it were me, I'd get the World Champion (soon to be) Colorado Rockies.

This Titleist hat is a one-size-fits-all baseball style cap. It is a breathable, 100-percent cotton. The NY is embroidered big and bold on the right side of the cap. The Titleist in 3D is embroidered on the front. And in the back is a tuck-away adjustable strap that also has Titleist embroidered on it. Finally, it's blue so it should match your pin stripe Yankees jersey.

"Everybody knows, when you're out playing a round with the homies, you betta be representin' down at the pawk! Ay - Faggettabout it!"

I'm thinking that stood for Oakley.

This style is what I would call "Race Car Driver Black" and is very popular. The glasses look very sporty and you look like you are moving fast even when you are standing still. Not that this is important on the golf course, but looking cool is always important everywhere.

These Tifosi Lust are good for golfers because they have a wrap-around vision so you can use your peripheral vision. Obviously this is important when playing golf because when you are making a big turn, your head might actually swivel a little bit.

The coolest thing about the glasses is you can bend them but you can't break the darn things. They are made of a material called Grilamid TR-90. This stuff is really bendable. This is a big thing for me, because I'm really hard on sunglasses. I sit on them. I step on them. I drop them.

Furthermore, when I play golf, I am constantly alternating between having them on my face and then putting them on top of my head and then back on my face again. This can wear out a pair of flimsy glasses and make them not fit very well. These Tifosi Lust hold their shape very well.

No, not your driver -- your feet! These Callaway Performance socks are a great product and will fit your gargantuan foot. (Small-footed golfers will also appreciate these socks.)

Because most socks are designed for a range of sizes, people with larger feet tend to struggle with socks that are too small. You will find that these socks will fit your foot and stay up and not sag.

These Callaway Performance socks were designed specifically for golfers. The material: 75% cotton, 22% nylon, 1% polyester, and 2% spandex. The socks are light and thin and wick moisture away from your foot. The top cuff is ribbed for added durability and protection from rubbing on those stiff golf shoes, and the socks have a half-cushion design for added comfort. Finally, they have a snazzy "Chevron" logo on each side of the cuff.

If designer socks with logos aren't your style, I would recommend you checking out these Men's Nike Dri-Fit No Show socks. These use Nike's patented Dri-Fit material that you are probably already familiar with. These socks also wick moisture from your feet, but are the "No-Show" style for you more subtle golf "fashion-istas."

Shhh! Don't tell my golf buddies. These guys show up to our tee time wearing some crazy, ugly cotton socks. One guy who shall remain nameless rarely even bothers to match his socks. (Unfortunately he beats me regularly. D'oh!)

However, his feet aren't in nearly as good of shape as mine are at the end of the round. These Nike Dri-fit socks are great! They wick away moisture from your feet. The midfoot is snug, giving you extra support in the arch.

The best thing about these socks is the heel and toe is reinforced. This is essential for us golfers who push off of our toes and pivot around our heels.

I recommend these socks to all golfers. I can't overstate how important it is to take care of your feet in this sport. I always keep an extra pair of these in my bag as well, and will sometimes change my socks at the turn.

One thing to note about these socks is they are the "No show" ankle sock. Some of you may want a sock that comes up a little higher and protects your ankle from rubbing against those stiff golf shoes. For more coverage, check out the Men's Nike Dri-Fit Anklet and the Callaway Mens Performance Sport sock.

Where you at, Tiger Woods fans? Here is the 2010 Victory Red Tiger Woods logo hat. Although 2010 may be a year Tiger wants to forget, I think the golf world will always remember this crazy one.

No, this hat does not come with a phone number of a beautiful cocktail waitress (you have to get that on your own), nor is it reinforced like a batting helmet in case an angry model comes at you wielding a sand wedge.

What it does contain is a flex fit that fits most head sizes comfortably. It has the "VR" Victory Red emblem on the side, just like Tiger wears. The ONE logo on the right side, and of course the "TW" logo on the front that stands for Testosterone-filled Womanizer… Heyyyooooo.

Okay, enough of my David Letterman routine. It's a cool hat and is identical to the one Tiger wears. (Well, perhaps his is specifically sized for his head.) But other than that, nobody can tell the difference. Whether you're a fan or not, the hat will certainly be a conversation starter at your next round of golf. That is for sure.

Haven't you embarrassed your family enough? You put that silly broken car window golf ball sticker on your minivan, you've got the golf door mat at your front door, and you even have a golf flag flying in your front yard. Do you really want to be strutting around in dorky golf pajamas? Well of course you do!

And comfortable they are. BedHead makes all kinds of pajamas, and these will become Dad's favorite -- sorry kids. They are 100% fine cotton and have... ahem.. cute little golf balls on them. The shirt has a breast pocket -- perfect for Dad's cigars -- and the bottoms have a drawstring with elastic in them for a little bit of stretch, in case Dad has a big breakfast.

These are cool pajamas, and of course by "cool" I mean really, really dorky. They should be worn only by the serious lounger and ultimate golf geek. In fact, to round out the outfit, make sure Dad has these golf slippers. You guessed it; these are bedroom slippers that look just like golf shoes… Oh dear, your poor, poor family.

I think a big part of this trend is the cool fashion designs that the ladies are sporting. Here's a great concept invented by Vicki Waldorf, wife of PGA Tour pro Duffy Waldorf. Vicki realized there were no hats designed with the ladies' preferences in mind and came up with Gogie Girl. The name comes from a nickname she gave her daughter who, when she was a baby, used to chase after her older brothers, always wanting to go with them, saying "Gogie, Gogie, Gogie." Thus, her company is designed for women who are on the go.

Some of the qualities that you are going to like about this hat (that you won't find in any men's hat) are:

To start, the hat. It's designed with lots of room in the back, making it easy to wear a ponytail, and the strap that adjusts to fit your head is easily hidden in a special pocket. The underside of the brim is black to mute glare, and the special Silton lining prevents makeup stains. This hat is extremely soft and very lightweight.

This Dottie design takes its name from the crazy polka dots (not LPGA pro Dottie Pepper). The latest trend in ladies' apparel seems to be "the wilder, the better." I like this hat, but if you are a little more conservative, check out the plain-jane Carly hat. It's a simple, solid-colored hat with just the Gogie insignia on it.

Vicki Waldorf, wife of PGA Tour pro Duffy Waldorf, started this company when she realized there were no baseball caps designed for women. The name comes from a nickname she gave her daughter who, when she was a baby, used to chase after her older brothers, always wanting to go with them, saying "Gogie, Gogie, Gogie." Thus, her company is designed for women who are on the go.

Let me give you some highlights of how this hat is specifically designed for ladies. For one, it's very lightweight, made with a soft mesh fabric. It's designed with lots of room in the back, making it easy to wear a ponytail. The black underside helps kill the glare from the sun, and the Silton lining helps prevent makeup stains.

My favorite thing about the hat is the logo on the front of the hat. It actually reminds me of the lady's version of the Ashworth logo. It's very simple, but cool looking. This particular style is a plain hat with just the logo. It is a standard fit and will fit heads with a circumference of 21 inches to 24.5 inches and comes in pink and beige.

I'd go with the pink, as the more feminine colors seem to be all the rage on the LPGA tour. I would also recommend that you check out the Dottie hat. This is a wild polka-dotted hat that is sure to draw attention.

Maybe it's because I'm as old as Brett Favre, but I'm not a big fan of the flashy, loud hat with the flat brim. Ah, but this simple, solid colored Ashworth hat is right up my alley.

Of course, when I think of Ashworth I think of another old guy, PGA Tour Pro Fred Couples. The man is the epitome of understated and non-flashy. This guy has always been a fan favorite because of his long, looping fluid swing and his laid back, "just another walk in the park" attitude. Fred is still going strong. 2010 is his first year on the Champions tour (and he's still one of the longest hitters on the PGA Tour). And Ashworth is still just as popular, now sponsoring Stuart Appleby, Chris DiMarco, Rich Beem, Jim Nantz, Rick Smith, Nick Watney, and Steve Flesch.

This hat is a simple solid color with Ashworth's well-known Golfman logo on the front. It comes in white, tan, black, and navy blue. I like the navy blue the best. The hat fits all sizes with the adjustable two-toned colored strap with a silver clasp. The underside of the hat is dark to reduce glare.

The hat is made with 100% cotton twill, which is fairly light and breathable. For a hat that is better for wearing on those hot muggy days, check out the Nike Feather Light Cap. This hat is incredibly lightweight and wicks sweat away from your head.

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.
