Nicely of us, one other week, one other avalanche of golf gear hitting the cabinets sooner than your tee shot finds the adjoining fairway. Let’s dive into what’s new, what’s noteworthy and what’s making me roll my eyes whereas my bank card weeps within the nook.
Tech and loosely associated equipment
Foresight × Vessel dropped a Premium Sling Bag designed particularly for GC Quad and Quad Max (additionally works with GC3). Now you’ll be able to carry your $20,000 launch monitor in one thing that screams “I spent all my cash on golf tech however nonetheless had sufficient for this fancy-boy bag.” It’s the golf equal of placing gold rims on a Ferrari – pointless however rattling if it doesn’t make you’re feeling particular.
Arccos launched their annual distance insights report, offering additional proof that the one factor common golfers want lower than a rollback is just a few extra three-putts. “Certain, let’s make the ball go shorter!” The USGA: Proudly fixing non-existent issues since 1894.
“Sport-changing” footwear
True Linkswear simply dropped their LUX² assortment which they declare was “formed by Tour perception, refined over years, examined, tweaked, and torn aside till good.” Humorous, that’s precisely how I’d describe my marriage after I defined how a lot these footwear price. I suppose the cost is justified as a result of, hey, they “didn’t rush it”.
PAYNTR launched their Trainer X 001 LE with a “full-grain leather-based higher.” Apparently, regular artificial supplies weren’t slicing it for these high-intensity wrist workouts wanted to textual content your buddy that you just’ll be late on your tee time. Lastly! Cow-based know-how on your half-hearted pre-round stretching routine.
ECCO and Random Golf Club collaborated on the Biom H5, a golf shoe “crafted for the wild.” As a result of your native muni with its half-dead grass, questionable cart paths and that one mysterious puddle that by no means dries up (even throughout drought situations) is mainly the Serengeti. Nothing says “I’m ready for adventure” like paying $250 to wade by means of goose droppings in type.
NIKE’s Scottie Scheffler Shoes, surprisingly, aren’t terrible which, given NIKE’s latest golf footwear efforts, counts as breaking information. The bar was so low it was virtually a tripping hazard, however they cleared it! It’s like being excited that your toddler didn’t draw on the partitions right now: the naked minimal turns into trigger for celebration.
Simply roll with it
Stewart Golf launched two new golf luggage – the NEXAS Hybrid and NERO 2 Cart bag. Each are “designed to work seamlessly with Stewart golf carts” which makes me marvel why they don’t simply throw in a bag at no cost once you purchase their $3,000-plus carts. It’s like promoting somebody a swimming pool after which charging further for the water.
Hip to be sq. (and never notably unique)
PXG launched its second zero-torque putter. The strangest factor about it’s that it virtually appears regular. Virtually. Like when your bizarre uncle reveals as much as Thanksgiving in a go well with as a substitute of his normal tinfoil hat, however you notice the telltale shine of Reynolds Wrap peeking out from his socks.
Talking of acquainted putter applied sciences, Odyssey just launched their Square 2 Square Max series. The idea feels surprisingly harking back to one thing we’ve seen earlier than, though we are able to’t fairly put our finger on it. Should be a kind of circumstances the place the business collectively evolves in the identical route. Concurrently. Years aside.
You’ve received some balls
Callaway launched two limited-edition golf balls: the requisite major-themed Queen City Chrome Tour for the upcoming PGA Championship at Quail Hole and Supersoft Canada as a result of … why not, eh? Nothing justifies limited-edition golf balls like nationwide satisfaction and a significant championship.
See ya later
That’s it for this week’s launch roundup. Keep in mind: Your tools isn’t the issue (it’s positively your swing) however that gained’t cease any of us from shopping for extra gear. Till subsequent time, preserve your pockets open and your expectations unreasonably excessive.
