Nothing seems to inspire golfers as much as the quest for newer, better equipment. There's always a new set of irons, a new driver, or putter, fairway wood or hybrid to try and buy. We all seem to believe that if we just get the right club, our games will improve.

IAG Big Duke Putter

IAG Big Duke Putter


IAG Big Duke Putter

The IAG Big Duke putter offers adjustable weights in a machine tooled aluminum putter head. Milled to 5/10,000ths of an inch accuracy from high grade 6063 aircraft aluminum, the Big Duke is said to offer soft feel and unmatched ball control. The head shape and size keeps the majority of the club weight on the perimeter, increasing moment of inertia and decreasing the effects of off-center hits. The shaft position is designed to help keep the face dquare at impact, rolling—rather than skidding—the ball along the target line.

Each putter comes with two extra weights and a TORX wrench.

Pinemeadow Excel Lightening Driver

Pinemeadow Excel Lightning Driver


Pinemeadow Excel Lightning Driver

Pinemeadow’s latest entry in the funny-shaped driver sweepstates is the square Excel Lightening. With these, it’s all about getting a higher moment of intertia (resistant to twisting). The square shape allows designers to move the weight further away from the center, resulting in longer, straighter shots even on off-center hits.

Pinemeadow also has worked to fine-tune the sound of these to help avoid the strange sound of so many of these “geometric” drivers.

The club measures 460cc and is constructed from titanium.

You can get a customized Excel Lightening Driver from Pinemeadow for as little as $100.

CLEVELAND 588 RS Wedge with Steel Shaft

Cleveland Golf is justifiably famous for its line of wedges. Every golfer I know has at one time or another had a Cleveland wedge in their bag.

The 588 RS Wedge is a wide sole model, designed to offer a low center of gravity, for a high and soft launch angle. A back cavity is supposed to reduce vibration, while enabling Cleveland engineers to move more weight away from the face. The Cleveland 588 RS Wedge is one of the most popular wedge face profiles in golf and insures confidence at address disguising the large recovery sole.

Yukon Anti-Slice Driver

Yukon Anti-Slice Driver

Golfers slice balls because they can’t get the clubface back to square at impact. It’s really no more complicated than that.

So the Yukon Anti-Slice Driver incorporates two technologies intended to help you get things back to square.

First, it has five millimeters of offset. That means that the leading edge of the clubface is 5mm behind the leading edge of the hosel. What this does is to allow the golfer a fraction of a second more to square the face before impact.

The other bit of helpful tech is that the face is one degree closed. That also will help you get the face closed in time.

It also come sin inly 10.5 and 12 degree lofts. Higher lofts equal more backspin, which equal straighter shots.

The only other trick you could pull with this club is to cut it an inch or so shorter. A shorter club also will be easier to square. That’s why you slice your driver, but not your pitching wedge.

GEL Putter Review

GEL Ruby Putter Grade: A- Teacher’s Comments: Putts as true as any I have ever used. Few ever notice, but when a ball is struck by a putter, it gives a little hop, then skids for a moment before starting to roll toward the hole. The hop…
