FOR many in the golf industry, 2020 was a year that we’d all like to forget. The global COVID-19 pandemic, combined with lockdowns and various restrictions, saw many global businesses hit major stumbling blocks, or even go out of business altogether. Across a few segments of the golf industry, however, the pandemic has led to […]
For over a decade, I’ve been espousing the benefits of getting properly fitted for a set of clubs. Buying a stock-standard set of clubs “off the rack” is like buying a random pair of size-9 shoes for a size-10 foot – you’ll be lucky if they fit, and even more lucky if they are actually […]
Walking the golf course is one of the true joys of the game. Sure, a golf cart/car can add some convenience, but when you come right down to it, there are (in my mind, anyway) far fewer things better than experiencing a golf course on foot. And it can be even more enjoyable with a […]

Golf footwear is, in my opinion, one of the most underrated (and underappreciated) pieces of equipment in any golfer’s arsenal. Often, a golfer will buy a pair of golf shoes with far less consideration than they will with, say, their choice of ball or driver, etc. But when you think about it, the footwear is […]
