GolfBuddy CT2–Compact Caddy golfbuddyglobal.com

As one who needs extra validation when selecting which club I should
hit, I’ve counted on assistance from various sources. From the time I put
on my first GolfBuddy watch, I’ve trusted their accuracy and reliability.
GolfBuddy now introduces the CT2. Their latest addition is a compact
device that can clip to your belt, pocket, or as I like to do, to the back of
my golf bag. The new CT2 really packs a punch with a 17-hour battery,
digital scorecard, and odometer. But what I like most about it is the
easy-to-read numbers and graphics. The dynamic green view and pin placement feature allows you to fire
right at it. On a recent trip to Aruba I played a course for the first time, and the GolfBuddy automatically
recognized the course. With no subscription or download fees, it makes an ideal gift for dad this Father’s
Day. Hint hint. The GolfBuddy CT2 can be found available at golf retailers everywhere.

Royal & Awesome–Uptown Funk royalandawesome.com

Friends and family that know me realize that I like to don some bold attire
when I step onto the links. Let me introduce you to the latest addition to
my fancy wardrobe choices. Royal & Awesome, Scotland’s dazzling golf
clothing brand, adds sparkle to golf events with their signature vibrant
colors and designs, which are the furthest thing from dull, drab tweeds.
As many would expect, I chose the Disco Diamond design. (Hey, I’m proud of the era I grew up in!)
So many adjectives can be used to describe these duds, but I think I’ll go with funky. Each pair of high
grade breathable cotton pants, whether they be trousers, knickers, or shorts, come with a handy dandy
multipurpose tool that works as a divot tool, ball marker, and bottle opener in one. Complete your outfit
with a matching hat and shirt. We think Royal & Awesome’s slogan “For the Pars and Bars” fits quite well
for these spectacular trews. Don’t believe me, just watch!

Pinnacle Golf Balls–Long and Soft Zenith pinnaclegolf.com

Are you a golf ball snob? Do you refuse to play anything that doesn’t come
with a $30 plus price tag? Well, you need to get with the times. The new
Pinnacle golf balls provide the best bang for your buck with an under $20
a dozen tariff. Pinnacle has always had an outstanding reputation as one of
the best distance balls on the market. The new Pinnacle Rush and Pinnacle
Soft further show Acushnet Company’s (also the makers of Titleist Golf) commitment to making the best
value ball possible. The Rush, built for power, displays some nice ball flights even on my mishits, unlike
high spins balls. For my game, Soft yields a better fit and feel. Give me a low-compression, low spin ball
and I’ll hit straighter every time. Rush is available in white or yellow colors, and Soft can be found in
white or pink. The Rush and Soft from Pinnacle will fit mid-level players perfectly and those looking for a
terrific value.

GolfersPanty–Walking Round in Women’s Underwear golferspanty.com

I ran into Steve Willis out of Nokesville, VA, at the Washington DC
Golf Show. Steve has created of one of the most humorous golf products
I’ve run into in years. Some may find it over the top, but I think the
GolfersPanty transcends the exploding golf ball as “best golf gag.” How
many times has a playing partner in your fun golf foursome topped one
failing to make it to the ladies’ tee? The customary penalty will now be
replaced with the humiliation of having to slip on the bright-colored 3XL
GolfersPanty. This nicely packaged golf quip comes with other, as they like to call them, “Shame Games”
to play. After the obvious short tee shot honor, other feats of failure include the “Big Whiffer” and “Son of
a Beach.” Willis realizes that the panties might not be for everyone, particularly the snobs at Bushwood.
But if you like some laughter while on the links (remember it is just a game), the GolfersPanty will create
smiles and chuckles every time you pull it out on the golf course. “That’s what she said!”
