Higher launch and lower spin are the magic words to get the most bang from your driver, and it's been bombs away for me with the new Mitsubishi Tensei AV Raw Orange shaft.
Tensei AV Raw Orange is a counterbalanced shaft (with more weight in the butt section, but actually has an evenly balanced (almost linear, one-piece) feeling, and is extremely stable. It's still a stout feeling, but a smoother stout and not boardy feeling at all.
A quiet morning. A walk outdoors. Some things in life are so perfect you don't need anything else to be happy and content. And you can add FootJoy's new Hydro Tour Rain jacket to that list of perfect things.
The HydroTour is straight up one of the best rain jackets I've ever worn, giving me exceptional protection and comfort across the board. This is really a jacket without any compromise.

The new Tour Edge EXS Pro hybrid is the kind of hybrid you can call on to hit any shot you want.
Fantastic versatility with nothing sacrificed in performance. It's a perfect face height to use off tee or from fairway. From the rough it rips through the grass, and the ball screams off the face. And I've even used it with pretty good success chipping off greens.
Scoring clubs are crucial to playing better and having more fun. But it's sometimes difficult for many of us to get consistent results with traditional blade wedges.
That's why Mizuno Golf designed the new ES21 wedges, blending the precision you want from this specialty club with the forgiveness you need to ensure you play your best.
The slice. It chips away at your dignity. You step into the tee box hoping for a ray of sunshine, but instead experience another power outage. The slice is an epidemic. Or at least it used to be.
Callaway's new Big Bertha B21 driver takes away the right side as well or better than any anti-slice driver I've ever hit or tested. And I tested B21 hard. Poor grip, chicken wing, over the top, and deliberately open face, B21 turned all these slice swings into very playable, and surprisingly long drives.
Securing a tee time in the year’s final major isn’t easy. For the select group of amateurs in the field, a tee time that comes with a room key to stay on property puts them in a different category, entirely.

Wilson has officially announced the modernization of a timeless classic with the release of the all-new Wilson Staff Model irons. The company has a rich history of forged “blade” irons, many of which have been played by game’s greats. This new generation of Staff Model irons are an appropriate continuation of one the brand’s most cherished equipment.
The Staff Model irons utilize a shape similar to that of FG Tour 100, while retaining Fluid Feel Hosel construction, which helps to move weight and enhance feel. This new Blade also features a milled diamond pattern which frames the score lines. Additionally, a milled face provides players with improved control and feel. The forged 8620 carbon steel is combined with a high polish mirror finish to give the blades a premium finish. For optimum feel, the irons also feature a bore through fluid feel design.
Firestone Country Club, renowned as one of North America’s most historic venues for championship golf, is embarking on a project to enhance its West Course and renaming the layout the Fazio Course.
Spearheaded by Fazio Golf Design, the project will include the removal of 18 bunkers and renovating the remaining 51. Several bunkers will be reshaped, and the Better Billy Bunker system will be employed in all for optimal drainage and reduction of washouts during inclement weather.
The new SIK Golf DW 2.0 C-Series putter is a trifecta of feel, stability, and roll goodness. And in fact, it's one of my favorite products of the year.
You probably already know at least a little about SIK Golf. U.S. Open Champion Bryson DeChambeau has been using a SIK putter for almost four years now. And one of the big stories with all their putters is DLT (Descending Loft Technology).
For some golfers the new Titleist Tour Speed golf balls will be close to or even better performing than the Pro V1 or AVX. Yes, you read that correctly. And at an even lower price comparatively, Tour Speed is going to be incredibly appealing.
Tour Speed is not a replacement for Pro V1 or AVX, and honestly I'm not sure where Tour Speed fits in the Titleist line up. In some ways Tour Speed will be a better ball for certain kinds of performance. In other ways, the Pro V and AVX line-up remains king. I've played and tested Tour Speed for about a month now, and here's how they all stack up on a variety of tee-to-green shots.
COBRA® Golf, a leader in golf club innovation, unveiled today the new KING TOUR Irons,which expand its KING family of players’ irons. A tour cavity back shape is manufactured using Metal Injection Molding (MIM) technology to deliver the most precise shaping with incredibly soft feel that better players desire. Building off the popularity of its KING MIM Wedges, COBRA is applying MIM Technology to a full set of irons for the first time and reinventing the way premium irons are designed and manufactured.
MIM manufacturing produces a more precise finished product utilizing fewer steps and minimal hands-on post-process polishing, unlike traditional forging and casting processes. Each iron head is created using a mixture of 304 stainless steel metal powder, which is then heated and injected into a mold. During the sintering process, the metal is heated to a higher temperature than forgings (1340°C vs. 1200°C), resulting in a tighter-aligned grain structure that delivers the highest level of precision and soft feel, rivaling that of carbon steel forgings. The final step is hand-polishing to deliver the perfect satin finish. While many forgings require moderate polishing to remove excess materials, MIM technology requires only subtle polishing to ensure the shape is consistent from set to set.
We see it every week on Tour. Players hitting wedges to spots with surgical precision. Holing out from greenside locations with abracadabra ease. And putting spin on shots that make the ball look like a Yoyo trick.
Swing technique of course goes a long way in pulling off these shots. But make no mistake about it, all wedges are not created equal. And even in the hands of less skilled golfers, the new Tour Edge Exotics EXS Pro Blade Wedges make a strong case to be considered among the best in class for overall performance.
