As of December 12th, Wilson’s winning Driver vs. Driver product had yet to join the USGA’s conforming club list for two of its three loft variations.
On the surface, this seems like an shortcoming of the rapid product development nature of the whole process. Consider that Wilson began the process...
Tiger Woods put on quite a show during the Hero World Challenge -- he led the field in birdies and double bogeys.
What does that performance say to me? It says that he’s a) 41 not 21 and b) returning from a long layoff due to back surgery.
For those of...
I’ve never been on a cruise, but I might go for one of these week+ long golf cruises.
Personally, I would choose the Hawaii trip since I’ve been there before, but didn’t get the chance to play any golf at the time.
But at $8,950, per person, per day, this 10-day...
Arccos is one of a growing number of companies targeting the analysis and gamification of players’ golf games. Their sensors screw into the butt-end of your golf club and are paired with an app on your smartphone.
I briefly used a set of Arccos sensors a couple years ago, but...
Tiger Woods choosing Bridgestone golf balls reminds me of Brock Osweiler signing with the Houston Texans -- I’m sure that both athletes aspired to signing with a more competitive brand (i.e. Titleist or Callaway and the Denver Broncos), but probably found that their compensation demands were higher than their...
A relative newcomer to the golf club business, PXG continues to add to its stable of endorsed golfers by adding Lydia Ko, world #1 LPGA golfer. t seems that PXG ponied up some major cash, outbidding Callaway in the process of signing Ko.
Since PXG clubs are around 3x as...
The 2017 Zurich Classic looks likely to be the first PGA team event in the last 25 years. Personally, I think that this is a great idea since it gives the tour 3-4 years to work on the format before the next Olympics in 2020.
Will they pull off a...
I like a good laugh as much as the next guy, but this prank could have ended without a golf-club wielding confrontation. I’m probably square in the middle in terms of age between these pranksters and the golfers, so I can appreciate both sides of this confrontation.
As the prankster,...
After an intensive 3 month rehab period, Jason Day returns to PGA Tour play with the goal of lengthening his career by shortening his swing. He also hopes that a shorter swing will prevent re-injury of his thumb, which he first hurt in 2014.
As I recall, Tiger’s latest “swing...
I love a good survey, especially a relevant golf survey. More specifically, I like seeing how “conforming” or “nonconforming” I actually am.
The Golf.com 18 Toughest Choices in Golf was quite well thought out, although I hope that they follow-up with other surveys that dive deeper into specific areas of...
