Spring = new golf gear. Check out these terrific new products.

With spring just around the corner it’s time to start thinking about new golf gear. You’re probably not going to look like the Augusta National fashionistas who are walking models of the newest in golf gear, but the gear designers are working for you.

They’re designing gear that will specifically meet your athletic needs. Looking good is the bonus, and who doesn’t enjoy looking good?

Assess your gear: Shoes are the foundation.  We work them hard. Is it time to start fresh? What about socks? Are they getting thin? We need socks that absorb and wick sweat and that protect our feet.

Go inventory your shirts. It’s about more than looking good, although that’s important too. But it’s also about shirts that flex with our bodies, wick, breathe, and will see us through a season or two of stick swinging in all kinds of weather.

How’s your rain gear? You’re going to need some if you’re going to golf in the spring. It’s about more than rain pants and a water-resistant jacket. It’s also about gloves that won’t slip on wet grips and a hat that’s going to protect you.
