When playing in the morning, the dew on the greens and the fairways gets your grips wet. Wet grips can make swinging the golf club or putter very uncomfortable because you just can’t get that feeling of control. I typically use either a towel, or a product called Grip Dry (reviewed last year), to keep my golf club grips dry when playing in the morning, or when the grass is wet Recently, I discovered a new product that’s easier to…
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…
As we all know, there are countless of divot tools available in the market . . . and I’ve reviewed a few. Most are simple, plastic and get the job done. Some divot tools also have a ball marker attached, which I find to be convenient as I feel that anything that reduces the number of ‘things’ in my pocket is a plus! Birdicorn’s all-in-one divot tool is far from ordinary as it also functions as a ball marker holder,…
At the PGA show, I came across a company called Stance Check, who has developed specialty glasses that helps the golfer better coordinate their connection between eye movement and a full club swing. I was intrigued as I had previously only heard talk of eye-position influencing putting . . . never full shots. Stance Check glasses look very similar to traditional sunglasses, except the Stance Check glasses include a special plastic cover that shields your non-dominant eye. Nothing actually makes…
There are an infinite number of ways to putt the golf ball, and there are hundreds of putters available in the marketplace. Yet all these putters have one thing in common – their steel shafts are virtually identical. During my quest for a “better putter”, I’ve gone through more than a dozen putters over the last 10 years, all in a failed search find a putter that will really improve my performance. After a lot of research, I may have…
After noticing that Justin Rose was playing with a uniquely styled flat, green colored putter grip at a recent PGA tour event, I did my research and found that Justin’s grip was made by the Flat Cat Golf Company. Flat Cat’s grips are USGA approved, are offered in 5 assorted colors with more colors on their way soon. Realizing that all Flat Cat grips have flat sides, I decided to order their “Slim”, “Svelte”, “Pistol”, and their new ”Solution” grip.…
There are plenty of golf tees out there and I’ve reviewed several. However, there’s one golf tee that actually has a dual purpose and functions like no other tee that I’ve ever seen before. The golf tee I am talking about is from the company, Tee Fork. The Tee Fork Golf Tee is pretty unique as it functions as both a golf tee and a divot repair tool. In addition, Tee Fork’s golf tee provides a consistent tee height every…
Successfully reading greens is a real talent that takes years of experience and skill. I must admit that even after playing the same course a few times. I still find it tricky to locate the correct break of the greens. The changing flag positions on the greens make locating the correct line and speed even more challenging. I’ve found that the Sure Putt Green Reader putting tool definitely helps me read virtually any green. Although using the Sure Putt tool…
I read in a magazine that Jordan Spieth was chewing some type of gum while playing a round of golf, so I decided to look into it. Anything that may help him, certainly could help my game as well! I found the product – It’s called Golf Gum. Although I had never heard of Golf Gum before, I ordered some and decided to give it a try. Golf Gum comes in a 5-piece pack. The packaging had lots of information,…
