We’ve all seen PGA Pro’s pull those Little Green Golf Books out of their back pocket. I’ve always imagined having my own green book, wondering if I’d then start making more puts or stop missing the cup by 4 feet? The day has finally come where we can all have our own Green Golf Book for our favorite courses! Golf Logix has launched their own Golf Green Books, representing over 14,000 different courses. Naturally, I just had to get one…

We’ve all see it – after a long hot day on the golf course, we find ourselves wearing hats that have retained an ugly white sweat stain. Unfortunately, I’ve had my fair share of ruined hats too. Starting in June, and running all the way through September, the heat and humidity are quite elevated where I live and play on the East Coast. As I write this review in late July, today’s temperatures in my home town are expected to…
I’ve tested a number of golf gloves over the years. Although some are better than others, most golf gloves don’t offer anything truly innovative, until now. Although Caddy Daddy Golf may be better known for their golf travel bags, I’ve found their “Claw” Golf Glove to be noticeably different than any glove I’d previously seen. The company claims that their Claw glove will not blacken, crack harden or tear, and will last 3 – 5 times longer than typical gloves found…
Putting training aids come in all shapes, sizes and varieties. There’s a new training aid on the market and it’s the most unique product that I’ve ever seen. The focus of Big Balls is to improve your putting from the 2 – 6 foot range. Although Big Balls are extra large (30% larger than a regular golf ball), they have the same feel and weight as a traditional ball, and their roll is very true as well. Using the Big Balls training tool…
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…
What would be better than receiving a golf-oriented gift in the mail every month of the year? Something new every month – from ball markers and head covers to drink koozies and divot tools. Receiving golf goodies every month on your doorstep is something ideal for every golfer. The service is called the Mullybox, and each month their subscribers receive a box filled with unique and needed golf products. The contents of each box is carefully selected and filled with high…
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 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…
