You don’t have to be a hardcore golfer to know the name Titleist Pro V1. The marketing and the market dominance of this one golf ball (and its PRO V1x sibling) have nearly created a monopoly in the premium, tour-level golf ball space. Even non-golfers know the name. That’s why it’s a big hill to climb for any would-be contenders. And yet, golf ball manufacturers continue to try. Bridgestone, Taylor Made, Vice and others have all had various degrees of success trying to position their flagship golf balls as the preferred choice of top players. Callaway has also been among…

I play a fair amount of solo golf. Sure, I love the social part of the game, and I’m always up for good company and conversation. But one of the perks of being self-employed is that I get to play a lot of rounds when other people are at work and the course isn’t as busy. When I do, I often like to enjoy some music or a podcast, or even knock out a couple of phone calls during a casual solo round. And I think I may have found the perfect piece of technology for these exact scenarios. The…

I’m a golf push cart devotee. Have been for quite awhile. To me, if you’re a walking golfer, I don’t know why you wouldn’t use a push cart.

These things typically take up a lot of room.…

Golf Bags

Originally published in October 2021, this has been updated as of February 2023 to include updated pricing and specs. I’ve always wanted a Sunday bag. Don’t get me wrong. I prefer to walk using a larger bag with my pushcart for the majority of my rounds, and I don’t see that changing anytime soon. And when there are a few beverages involved, or the heat is excessive, or I’m playing 36, I still love riding in a cart. But a Sunday bag has always had a certain romanticism to me. I’ve always kind of admired the stripped-down, back-to-basics vibe that…

The first thing that struck me about Cutter Golf wedges was that they look, well…odd. I mean, really strange. I’m pretty confident that any longtime golfer is going to have that same initial reaction. The shape of the head is just so foreign to what you’re used to looking at when you stand over a golf shot. It looks almost triangular – and huge; totally different from a traditional clubface. So right off the bat, my skepticism was a bit high. Before I hit a single shot, I seriously doubted that this club would be an actual candidate to have…
