When choosing new clubs, a lot of the focus tends to be drivers with irons next and the short sticks like putter and wedges getting less of the attention. Honestly, I am as guilty of this as the next guy, simply because, well, bombing a driver is cool! Actually, it must be old-age setting in… Continue reading How to Choose Your Wedges
Should You Really Listen to Your Fitter?
I should probably start this article by saying that I am not a golf fitter, nor have I played one on TV. I have been through various fittings (although never a full bag, top to bottom one done by a clubfitter who is completely independent of any brand.)

Tiger Woods the Golfer Becomes Tiger Woods the Businessman
After Tiger’s latest withdrawal, it seemed clear to many golf fans that we might never see him on the course in anger again.

As I sit here typing, I have a lovely set of Mizuno irons in a bag next to me. In another corner, I can… Continue reading Minimalist Golf:Less is the New More?
The Ultimate Clicgear Golf Trolley Review
There are plenty of ways to get around the course, from riding in a buggy with fully-stacked cart bag to carrying a seven iron and nothing else (yes, really, I do this now and again!) However, for me, golf has always been about enjoying each hole as much as possible. Riding in a buggy takes… Continue reading The Ultimate Clicgear Golf Trolley Review
The Swingbyte 2-the Perfect Swing Solution?
Swingbyte 2: It’s Like Having a Golf Pro In Your Pocket I remember as a young man going to the local driving range with my uncle.

The End of the Golf Equipment Industry?
The number of companies that thrive in the golf equipment industry could be counted on your fingers (even if you are missing a couple!)
