Continuing its commitment to bring golfers advancements in technology that lead to lower scores and more enjoyment on the golf course, PING has introduced the G425 family in North America, Europe and South America.

PXG, the global golf equipment powerhouse, is all about the science of sexy. The formula never changes. Crazy distance, unbelievable forgiveness, huge sweet-spots, an extremely soft feel, and smoking hot looks. All that and more can be found in the company’s All-New PXG 2021 0211 Collection. An incredible line-up of innovative new irons, hybrids, fairways, and drivers that deliver game-changing performance at a killer price.
Six years ago, PXG shook-up the golf industry with the introduction of its groundbreaking flagship technology. With amazing but expensive clubs, PXG built its brand in service to well-heeled golfers and those who desired to own the finest equipment. Since deploying its flagship golf clubs, the company has grown its global footprint and gained notoriety for challenging convention, renouncing product release cycles, delivering groundbreaking technology, and building a direct-to-consumer distribution model.
Team TaylorMade has one of the strongest lineups in all of professional golf. As a company built around product innovation, technology and authentic golfer relationships, the brand has attracted some of the best and most magnetic players in the game.
There’s no better example of that than Dustin Johnson. He has been a centerpiece for the brand’s team of world-class tour professionals since turning pro 14 years ago. Armed with TaylorMade equipment, Johnson has amassed 24 victories over the course of his career including two major championships.
The 2021 College Football Playoff National Championship is this Monday and features two of the most storied teams in college football history. The Alabama Crimson Tide square off against the Ohio State Buckeyes, and I'll be giving away a full set of Golf Pride MCC Teams grips (13) in your choice of Buckeyes or Bama colors for this biggest game of the year.
I've reviewed MCC, MCC Align, and MCC Teams grips for you over the last year or so, and they're probably the grips I have on most sets of irons and drivers I play and review. And for the National Championship game this Monday, I'm going to give away a set of Golf Pride MCC Teams in Ohio State Scarlet and Grey, or Alabama Crimson and White.
Bridgestone Golf, the #1 Ball-Fitter in Golf, announced today that the new e6, the longest running current model in the company’s lineup, is now made a with larger, softer core, offering moderate swing speed players more distance with improved feel and overall performance.
Features of Bridgestone’s newest e6 include a two-piece construction with a larger, softer core for an exceptionally soft, responsive feel and added distance for moderate swing speed players. Though the e6 has enjoyed an impressive 15-year track record of success, the new design is specifically tailored to modern players who value a ball that provides a melted-butter feel at impact without the loss of distance sometimes associated with lower compression models. In the case of the new e6, those with moderate driver swing speeds can greatly benefit from the larger, more responsive core formulation as well as Bridgestone’s advanced dimple technology and aerodynamics.
Today Callaway Golf Company (NYSE: ELY) announced that Jon Rahm, the #2 ranked player in the world, has joined its Tour professional staff in a multiyear agreement. As a Staff Pro, he will transition into a full bag of Callaway Woods, Callaway Irons, Callaway Wedges, a Callaway Chrome Soft X Golf Ball, and an Odyssey Putter.
“I’m so happy to be joining Callaway, and I can’t wait to start the year,” Rahm said. “The equipment is already performing well for me, and in my first round with the new setup, I shot a course record 59 at Silverleaf. I have confidence in my new Callaway clubs – and especially the golf ball, which has really impressed me during the testing process.”
We're ringing in the New Year in a really big way for 2021. If you follow me on twitter and Instagram you saw I'll be giving away a 1 of 1 prototype CRU Golf Walkabout leather carry bag that was designed for Rickie Fowler to use at The Masters.
I took The Walkabout out for a mini-review earlier this week (don't worry, it's in pristine condition), to give you guys an idea of what the bag is all about, show you some features, get an overall feel for what makes this bag special, and to point out how it's similar to and different from the CRU Legacy leather carry bag (which I reviewed for you guys last year here).
This one speaks for itself. A Bridgestone Tour B Staff bag signed by Bryson DeChambeau, Fred Couples, and Matt Kuchar. It's glorious in every possible way, and it's going home to one of you in DAY 12 of my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway.
I showed you earlier today on twitter and Instagram that Santa dropped this bag off here for you this morning. Apparently sprinkled some Northern Lights magic around it to protect from the snow. And will include a few more pictures of it below for you.
The Galvin Green name is synonymous with quality. If you're looking at all-weather apparel, for rain, for wind, for cold and warm, Galvin Green is legendary for protection and comfort. And the new Lake INTERFACE-1 Jacket lives up to their reputation delivering superior wind protection, breathability, and range of movement. And while not insanely waterproof like their Gore-Tex pieces, Lake still repels water in steady showers to keep you dry through your entire round.
One of you is going to win your very own Lake Jacket, which is a Limited Edition by the way. And you'll be able to choose whatever size you want (Lake is a proper fit, maybe a tad bigger than the Euro cut Galvin Green is also known for). As we've been doing each day in my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway, I'll touch on some key points about the Lake for you, so you know more about what's coming in DAY 11.
When Adidas launched the Tour360 XT SL golf shoes last year, it was the first time this model was released in a spikeless version. And quite frankly it exceeded expectations of what I expect in a spikeless golf shoe. So when Adidas announced the new Tour360 XT SL Textile this year, I had to wonder how they could have possibly improved on the original.
And they did. Tour 360 XT SL Textile doesn't have wholesale changes from the original (which is a good thing). But the small changes Adidas did make resulted in notable improvement in both breathability and feel, and even to some extent stability. One of you will win your very own pair of Tour360 XT SL Textile in Day 10 of my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway. And you can choose whatever color and style you want here.
The Aldila name is one of the most iconic in all of golf. And their Rogue line of shafts have won countless times on all professional Tours, including multiple major championships. When you already design some of the best shafts in golf, there's usually not much room for wide-ranging innovation from one model to the next. However the newest Aldila Rogue Black 130 takes the Rogue Black profile to even more revolutionary heights.
One of you will win a new raw, uncut Tour Issue Rogue Black 130 Shaft (choose TR 60, TS 60 or TX 70), and I'm going to hit on some of the differences between the old Rogue Black, as well as compare it to the new Rogue Silver 130 to help give you a better feel of some key performance characteristics.
Any given week on Tour if you turn on Golf Channel or NBC you're seeing Odyssey putters in the winner's circle on a regular basis. And at a growing rate these Odyssey putters are being used with Stroke Lab shafts. This year the Triple Track line of putters incorporated the Stroke Lab tech, including the Triple Track 10 we're giving away (RH, 35") for DAY 9 in my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway.
I'll hit some of the key review highlights about Triple Track 10 below, and give you some comparisons to other Odyssey putters I've played in the past. I can tell you right now however, Stroke Lab is legit (I have this shaft in a Toulon Chicago I also reviewed earlier this year for you guys), and Triple Track, while apparently simple at first blush, is actually quite brilliant.
Well I promised you guys a few days ago. So here it is. A BONUS PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway. And today we'll be giving away a FULL SET of Golf Pride MCC Teams Grips (13) and a PRO ONLY Cord Putter Grip (Red Star).
I probably have MCC grips on most of my iron sets, and have reviewed these for you already quite a few times on social. But I'll touch on some key performance and feel aspects for you again here now since one of you is going to win your very own full set of MCC Teams grips (13) in red and gray (or scarlet and gray for you Buckeyes fans out there), and a PRO ONLY Cord Putter Grip (Red Star).
This Naughty or Nice giveaway might not be what it seems at first blush. It's not exactly about whether you have been naughty or nice. It's not about the gift itself being naughty or nice. Naughty or Nice for this giveaway means no matter if you have a inconsistent (naughty swing) or a textbook smooth (nice swing), this club is going to work for all of you and give you exactly what you're looking for.
And that club is the Tour Edge EXS 220 Driver. I first told you about EXS 220 in January at the PGA Show, and it was a Show headliner. And taking it out on the course I can tell you it's a straighter hitting driver than the previous EXS (which was pretty forgiving in its own right), and also delivers impressive distance right up there with the big OEMs.
On full and partial shots from the fairways, bunkers, and rough, the new Cobra KING MIM Wedges are a triple threat. The versatile grind and spin control give you all the options you need to pull off pretty much any shot you can imagine.
I reviewed the KING MIM ONE wedges for you guys here and on twitter and Instagram this year, but you'll be receiving the standard length, new black finish KING MIM 56 degree in Day 8 of my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway. I'll hit on a few performance impressions for you here again so you know exactly what to expect when you put this in play.
When Santa told me he was interested in having FootJoy design a special edition HydroTour Santa Suit for him it honestly didn't surprise me. The HydroTour rain jacket I reviewed for you guys this year was the best FJ rain jacket I've ever worn, in every performance category.
And when Santa thinks as highly of something as he does HydroTour, you know it has to be in my PGAPappas 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway. So one of you will win a new HydroTour Rain jacket, whatever size and color you like.
The Wilson Staff Launch Pad driver is like a straighter more forgiving D7. I've reviewed both of these drivers (along with the irons) this year, and this was one of the best in the game-improvement category.
Wilson does lightweight and easy to hit drivers as good (maybe even better) than anyone, and Launch Pad is their finest effort. The face feels hotter than D7, and with even more forgiveness across a wider hitting area. Compared to D7, Launch Pad spins less, has more offset, and does a great job closing the face.
I've been reviewing and telling you guys about Duca del Cosma golf shoes for awhile now. The comfort is luscious. Traction is outstanding. And quality, materials, and workmanship are flat-out exceptional.
Duca has grown fast in the last few years, and just this month signed a six-time European Tour champion to wear it's hand-crafted, distinctive footwear. They may have been flying under the radar before, but today Duca is a strong presence in the golf shoe game. And one of you will receive Any Pair you want from their Entire 2020-2021 Collection.
Having Santa work with me on my 12 Days of Christmas Golf Giveaway this year has been more awesome than I'll ever be able to explain. It's been a bit crazier for sure, but he's the King of Christmas spirit, and today Santa took it to an entirely new level.
Santa has approved an Emergency Holiday Stimulus Package for my 12 Days giveaway that will include a YEAR'S SUPPLY of Bridgestone Tour B golf balls!
The straightest and most stable shaft I played all year was the Mitsubishi Tensei AV Raw Orange. In fact, it quickly became my favorite Tensi shaft of the many I've played over the years.
Consistent and tight dispersion without much deviation in distance and direction even on mishits. Tensei AV Raw Orange is pretty much the driver whisperer on all kinds of mediocre shots. It's really that good.
