    Radmor Golf Apparel

    Radmor Five-O Knit Performance short

    Most high-performance golf shirts these days are made with polyester. Polyester is made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET), the most common type of oil based plastic in the world. Polyester clothing takes decades, if not centuries to decompose in a landfill and is considered harmful to the environment. By comparison, cellulose fibers like cotton, lyocell, modal, bamboo, all breakdown in a fraction of the time and are considered regenerative for the environment.

    Radmor Golf is the first brand in the golf industry to focus on the elimination of using “virgin” polyester on a garment level. They’ve also limited the amount of recycled ocean polyester and recycled nylon they use to less than 10% of the collection. The the vast majority of Radmor’s garments are made from either BCI (Better Cotton Initiative) organic cotton or extra-long staple Pima cotton. It’s more expensive, but it’s stronger, lighter, and lasts longer than other cottons.

    I recently tried a pair of TRUE Linkwear’s All Day Knit shoes and found them to be one of the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn. Good thing it just so happens to be a golf shoe that I can also wear to work, so they’ll get a lot of use. TRUE Linkswear has a very nice selection of styles, colors and sizes, so jump over to truelinkswear.com and check them out! https://truelinkswear.com/collections/shop-all-footwear

    When Honma tradition meets modern tech, the result is TW757.

Honma Golf isn’t as well known in the US as some other brands, but they’ve been making some of the best quality golf clubs in the world for over 60 years. I have a set of their older forged cavity backs and would love to get my hands on a set of their latest offerings from the TW757 “Tour World” collection. There’s not a better looking or performing forged iron available in my opinion. Take a look at the TW757 collection here and see for yourself, then schedule a fitting for the ultimate experience!

  • 6 Last Minute Christmas Gift Ideas

    6 Last Minute Christmas Gift Ideas

    Christmas is only 10 days away, and if you are anything like me, you haven’t finished your holiday shopping yet! Time is running out, especially for internet shopping. With that in mind, here are a few ideas for the golfers on your gift list. Happy shopping!

    • New grips! Most golfers wait too long to change their grips, and their game suffers. Lamkin is one of the leaders in golf grips and have been doing it since 1925. Try the new Wrap-Tech or UTX grips. Lamkin’s pricing is awesome and they have many styles and materials to choose from. I’ve been using the iconic Lamkin Crossline Cord grips for years. You can’t go wrong with Lamkin grips.

    • Golf GPS – SkyGolf makes some of the best Golf GPS products on the market. In fact, the SkyCaddy TOUCH is probably the most full-featured and accurate GPS device on the market. Paired with your smart phone and the Sky Golf 360 app, you can get the latest updates to over 35,000 pre-loaded golf courses as well as tracking your scores and stats. I’ve used the SkyCaddy Touch for several months and it has been invaluable to me in tournament golf to get more data to help me plan my way around a course.

    • Socks! Kentwool makes the best golf socks. Period. Just try a pair and you’ll see. If I have to walk a golf course with a forty pound golf bag on my back, I want a good pair of shoes and some Kentwool socks to keep my feet happy. The Tour Profile sock is their best all around golf sock and they’ll make any golf shoe feel better. Combine these socks with some shoes from True Linkswear or Ecco and you have an unbeatable combination.

    • World Amateur Golfers Tour membership – Does the golfer on your gift list want to be challenged? Make new friends? How about a chance to play for your country at a top golf resort, all expenses paid? If you answered yes to any of those questions, then perhaps a membership to the nearest local World Amateur Golfers Tour would be a great gift! Play against players of similar ability in handicapped events for points in the national order of merit and to have a chance to qualify for Team USA and represent your country at the World Championships. I just returned from the 2015 WAGC in Turkey and it was an experience I’ll never forget.

    • New Driver – When in doubt, you can always fall back on the old standby and get your golfer a new driver. It’s the most oft-changed club in a golfer’s bag and there are always shiny new models to try. One of the best new drivers of 2015 is the Knuth Golf High Heat driver. It has the lowest center of gravity in golf and produces straighter drives that go further on mishits (probably) than your current driver. Its inventor Dean Knuth also invented the USGA’s Slope Rating system for golf courses. Basically what I’m trying to say is, he’s way smarter than you and me. Try his driver. It’s very shiny and I think you’ll like it!

    • Another Putter – Seriously, how many putters do us golfers have? The answer is always “One too little!” At least in my case it is. I’m always looking for the BBD – Bigger better deal. Believe it or not, I think I found it. It’s called Cure Putters, and they are quickly becoming very popular. They may not win any beauty contests, but when it comes to rolling a golf ball they excel. The high-MOI design makes even mis hits roll true and they are customizable to every golfer. I put the Cure RX3F putter in the bag and promptly won the WAGT National Championship. Then I used it to finish 3rd in my flight at the 2015 World Amateur Golfers Championship in Antalya, Turkey. It just works!

     

  • 5 Cyber Monday Golf Deals

    Cyber Monday Golf DealsCyber Monday Golf Deals

    The Christmas shopping season seems to start earlier every year, doesn’t it? Here in the US, Black Friday kicks off the holiday mess on the day after Thanksgiving, and Cyber Monday follows on the Monday after Thanksgiving for online retailers looking to get in on the action. While the golf season may be over for much of the country, there are still lots of reasons to be on the lookout for some cyber Monday golf deals. If you are a true golf nut like myself, you don’t need a good reason to be looking for new gear!

    We took a look back at all the product launches this season and seasons past and think these five are some of the better cyber monday golf deals out there.

    1. Hopkins Golf Wedges – Greg Hopkins knows a little something about making wedges. He was the President & CEO of Cleveland Golf for 16 years. Now he’s formed his own company to make wedges a bit more personal. Just about everything about Hopkins Golf wedges is customizable, and their manufacture in small batches ensures they’ll be high quality and very playable. Click here to get started building your own custom wedges, and use the promo code ITG20 to get a free custom grind!

    2. Eyeline Golf Training Aids – Eyeline Golf makes a dizzying array of training aids, and their signature putting mirrors are a great way to sharpen your putting by getting your eyes directly over the ball and give you good feedback on your stroke. I’ve used one for a while and I’m a great putter getting better. But don’t take my word for it, just ask any of the dozens of touring pros that use their aids every day. Combine their Speed Trap swing trainer with the ProAdvanced net (see below) for a complete swing improvement station in your house.

    3. Sheex Performance Sheets – Sheex makes the best sheets money can buy. That’s my opinion of course, but I’ve been sleeping on them for several years now and I’ll never go back to cotton sheets. What do these have to do with golf? Nothing, other than helping you get a good night’s sleep so you can play your best. Sheex are made of the same material as the light, moisture wicking athletic apparel everyone wears these days, but thicker and softer. I’ve sent Sheex to several friends as gifts and they are all converts. Try them now and save 10%. Just click on the link above or go here: I promise, you’ll love them.

    4. ProAdvanced Practice Nets – If you are stuck in a part of the world that is covered in snow during the winter, you still have a few options to practice your golf swing. Get a net! ProAdvanced Sports makes nets that set up in seconds, are easy to use and even return the ball to you. They make a full size net called ProReturn for full swings or a smaller version called ProApproach for short game practice. Get one, throw it up in the basement or living room and keep your swing sharp and ready for spring!

    5. Kikkor Golf Shoes & Apparel – There are lots of choices out there for golf shoes, but only Kikkor makes shoes that literally make you cooler. Just kidding, but One thing is for sure, Kikkor Golf makes some cool shoes. Crossing the line between golf and the skate/surf culture, these shoes will help you stand out against the crowd. Use our exclusive link and you’ll get an additional 10% off your entire order, and don’t forget to drop them a line and tell them intothegrain sent you. Company founder and Big Break star James Lepp will be happy.

  • 8 Christmas Gift Ideas For Last Minute Shoppers

    Christmas is almost here, and if you are like me, you still haven’t done your shopping yet. Shipping cutoffs are approaching fast and the stores are packed with last minute shoppers. If there is a golfer on your gift list, here are a few suggestions that you may be interested in…

    • HIRZL Gloves – There are several things Switzerland is famous for making well. A few products that come to mind are chocolate, watches, Swiss army knives and golf gloves. Wait, what? Hirzl gloves are the real deal. They are a premium golf glove that provides superior grip in all conditions and durability that surpasses all other gloves on the market. Made with a mix of Kangaroo and Cabretta leather, they are worth every penny. Street price: $25 – Visit their website for more information. 
    • IJP Designs Apparel – Most everyone that follows the professional tours knows Ian Poulter. Americans know him mostly as the guy that wears flashy pants and keeps kicking their asses at the Ryder Cup. His apparel company has made great inroads in the US market, and IJP offers a complete line of shirts, pants (or trousers if you prefer the Queen’s English), shorts, belts and more. The line features classic designs along side the more darling paterns, and there should be something for just about everyone. Visit ijpdesign.com for more.
    • Slammin’ Sam Beer – A new venture, Slammin’ Sam Beer Company holds an exclusive, worldwide license with the estate of Sam Snead. Slammin’ Sam is a craft-brewed American lager with a refreshing taste and balanced finish that is inspired by the legendary all-time PGA Tour wins leader. Developed using a proprietary recipe developed by Ray Klimovitz, recipient of the 2011 Distinguished Life Service Award from the Master Brewers Association of the Americas, Slammin’ Sam will be offered at renowned resorts, golf courses, restaurants, bars and everywhere beer is sold.
    • TaylorMade Ghost Spider S Putter – TaylorMade’s newest putter was released just in time for the holiday season. The next generation of the Ghost Spider makes it easier for players to square the face at impact to start the ball on its intended line and delivers tremendous twist-resistance on the backswing and off-center hits. Its Tour-designed crown flows smoothly into the outer frame for less distraction, while the black and white frame and single white center-line promotes focus, accurate aim and stroke awareness. TaylorMade’s PureRoll Surlyn insert promotes incredibly soft-yet-solid feel and smooth roll off the face. Available 11/1. MSRP $179 – taylormadegolf.com.
    • adidas Golf Adipure Motion Shoes – One of golf’s great classic shoes, the adipure motion is 5 ounces less and 23% lighter than the previous adipure model. A state-of-the-art outsole construction frees the foot and body to move in a way it was inherently meant to – from the ground up to the shoulders. The adipure motion features a 7-spike, ultra-light exoskeleton outsole with puremotion technology designed to provide dynamic movement and ultimate flexibility. Available 12/1. MSRP $220; adidasgolf.com
    • 2012 Miura Wedges – Miura has been making some of the most beautiful and playable forged irons and wedges in the game for years. The New Wedge Series from Miura, the world’s preeminent maker of quality forged golf clubs, preserves the eternal elements of the “old” Series and adds refinements that make the clubs a pleasure to look at and a joy to play. Now in odd-numbered lofts from 51 degrees through 59, the New Series features redesigned bounce angles that work well with the way thinking players like to play golf.
    • Switch Belts – Made of thermoplastic resin, Switch Belts won’t stretch, fade, warp or wear out. You cut them to fit, can clean them in the dish washer and walk through metal detectors as they contain no metal. What I’m trying to say is, Switch Belts are not just good for golf, but for any outfit. In fact, there are 196 possible belt and buckle color combinations to match every outfit in your closet. Belts go for about $30. www.switchbelt.com
    • SwingTip – In a market flooded with useless swing aids and devices that make you look idiotic on the practice tee, it’s refreshing to see a device that is neither. The SwingTip is a device that attaches below the grip on your club and transmits information about your golf swing to your iPhone, iPad or Android device for analysis. It will give you a graphical display of your swing path along with information like club head speed, club face angle, swing path, impact zone and tempo. You can also review your swing and/or practice session info later online. MSRP $129 – www.swingtip.com
