When on the links, I always use a golf towel, whether to wipe off a club or clean a ball. A quality golf towel is an essential accessory. I’ve always simply taken a white hand towel, wet it down and thrown it over the back of my bag. I make it a habit of always wiping off my clubs after each shot (especially bunkers) as they always seem to get mud, sand and dirt in between their grooves. Lastly, I…
I usually travel with a full back pack filled with the usual “stuff” – headphones, iPad, battery chargers and various small travel essentials. At present, my Callaway back pack looks nice but lacks sufficient storage, as its primary storage compartment is always filled to capacity, leaving no room for me to rummage around to find things.

I stumbled upon the VUGA brand and decided to try a polo shirt and a pair of golf pants to see how they compare with a few of the better known brands in my wardrobe. Specifically, I went with the…
While at the PGA show, I tested a very unique putter grip from a company called Forward Golf. . After 5 or 6 dead-straight practice putts at the show, I decided that I had to try Forward Golf’s grip on my own putter to see for myself if their grip performed in a real environment. I ordered their Mid-size putter grip from Forward Golf and it arrived on time and as promised. Forward Golf offers grips in several sizes. Their…
