Use the code “Breakingeighty” for 15% off any order at SIC! As you can imagine, I get offered a lot of stuff to review. Most of it, I pass on or let them know very clearly, if they send something, I can’t guarantee I’ll write anything about it. Months ago, Erik the founder of SIC Cups, or “Seriously Ice Cold” water bottles offered to send me some of their golf ball patterned water bottles. I told him he was welcome to send them over, but that I wouldn’t be able to make any promises on a review. A week later…

So this review is about 3 years in the making and is specifically for the dudes out there. Let’s rewind a few years and go back to the first time I was introduced to Bn3th performance underwear. My buddy Rob has a connection with them, and he’s like “you’ve gotta try them out, hands down best underwear ever.” I got a few pairs and proceeded to wear them both day to day, and while golfing/working out. And I’ve gotta say, they were great! Super comfortable, great fit, and performed well. However, there was one complaint, and for golfers this was…

Growing up, I wasn’t a golfer. I was a tennis player. My mom was a tennis fanatic, so from the age of 7 that’s what I did. I always had an interest in golf, but there weren’t many opportunities to go out and play. Growing up playing tennis however, was one of the bests gifts I received as a kid. Not only is it a sport I can play for a lifetime, but the lessons I learned growing up at a tennis club are some that have served me ever since. Learning things like manners, etiquette, and how to interact with adults…

There are a lot of products in golf that the average person might look at as a commodity. For instance, generally speaking a golf tee is a golf tee. No matter how good it looks, or how fancy you make it, it really isn’t going to affect your game all that much. While golf gloves aren’t quite to the level fo a golf tee, I always kind of threw them in the same boat. You might have some Nike gloves that feel a little more tech oriented, or the very traditional Titleist leather glove – but overall, as long as…

It was 5pm the night before I was scheduled to leave on a 4 day trip to Bandon Dunes. The line up was incredible. We had an afternoon round on the Sheep Ranch on Thursday. Back to back Pacific Dunes and Bandon Dunes rounds on Friday. Another Sheep Ranch round Saturday, followed by my personal favorite, Bandon Trails. And a final round on Old Mac to close things out Sunday. It was a perfect Bandon Dunes trip, and one I’d been excited to make for a long time. And then I got the text: “Dude, I’m so sorry to do…

After two years of waiting patiently, it’s finally here: the Sheep Ranch at Bandon Dunes is now open for resort play. I could hardly contain my excitement as I made the 4-ish hour drive down from Portland. A day that was supposed to be full of rain was shaping up to be dry after all, and my 3:50 tee time would have me hanging over ocean top cliffs right as the sun was setting. You probably have a lot of questions. Does the Sheep Ranch live up to expectations? How does it compare to the other courses at Bandon? Is…

I still remember the year Pronghorn Resort first opened. It was 2002, and I read an article about it in the local paper. I was blown away by it – and I wasn’t even a golfer at the time. Reading about the plans for the club, and seeing some spectacular photos of the courses made me say “one day, I’m going to go there.” However at the time, Pronghorn was being built as a private club – and I figured any invite there would be a long shot at best (I wouldn’t play my first private course for another 11…

It’s probably pretty obvious that not all golf club fitting sessions are created equally. The 20 minute session at your local Golf Galaxy for instance, probably won’t lend the same level of confidence in the results as a more dedicated boutique fitting shop. But I had no idea how true this was until I spent an afternoon recently getting fit for new clubs at True Spec Golf. To put it simply, getting fit at True Spec was probably the most educational 3 hours on golf clubs I’ve ever had. Not to mention the fact that after all was said and…

This review has been a long time coming. It was probably close to a year ago, I first got hit up by the guys at Rhoback to tell me what they were up to and to ask if they could send me a couple shirts. Now I get requests like this all the time, and usually, especially in the apparel market, I’m not overly impressed with the offerings. But something about Rhoback was intriguing, so I decided to give a couple of their polos a shot – and man, I’m glad I did. What is Rhoback Golf? The first thing…
