Review: Nike Sumo Squared Hybrids
Over the past few months, we have had a chance to have a close look at a lot of clubs in the 2008 line of Nike golf equipment. From the Nike Sumo 5900 driver to the Nike Slingshot 4D irons, we have continually been impressed. Today we will be having a closer look at the Nike Sumo Squared Hybrids. These hybrids promise pinpoint accuracy and ample forgiveness.
Review: Crocs Ace Golf Shoes
Early last summer I purchased a pair of Off Road crocs, and they have rarely left my feet. They are quite possibly the most comfortable casual shoes I have ever owned. I always wear them to the golf course, and am anxious to slip them back on after walking 18 holes. When Crocs purchased Bite Shoes last year, my first thought was wow…when do I get golf spikes on my crocs?. Well, I did not have to wait long. Crocs quickly put together a golf shoe design, that is more than just spikes slapped onto the bottom of a traditional croc: the Crocs Ace.
Review: Power Blade
Everyone wants to add yards to their drive. You know you want to belt it 325 down the middle like Tiger. There are plenty of training aids out there on the market claiming they will add 5..10…25 yards to your drive, but most fall short in delivering on those promises. The problem generally is due to the fact that even with the greatest of training aids, you must put in the work with it to see results. So the challenge for a training aid designer is to create an effective tool that both shows results and is fun to use. Is the Power Blade the answer? We’ll find out!
Review: Clicgear 2.0 Cart
Today we have a look at the first cart in our Push Cart Roundup, the Clicgear 2.0. The Clicgear 2.0 introduces a number of improvements over the previous model, most notably a super easy to use folding and unfolding system. We have been using the Clicgear 2.0 for about a month now, and have put together a detailed review of these improvements and the overall performance of the cart.
Review: Heavy Putter C2-DF
If you are a long time reader of The Deep Rough, you know I am absolutely in love with my B3-M Heavy Putter. Earlier this year, Heavy Putter released a new line of Deep Faced putters. The Deep Face raises the center of gravity of the putter, aligning it closer to the equator of a golf ball. This should result in more consistent strikes on the sweet spot of the putter face. So let’s have a look at the Heavy Putter C2-DF and see how it compares to the earlier generation Heavy Putters.
Review: TaylorMade Tour Burner
TaylorMade launch the new Tour Burner line of equipment earlier this Spring with a spirited marketing campaign. The Burner Bloodline website provides great detail and insight into this tour like line of equipment. Unlike the Tour Authentic line from Callaway, the Tour Burner series is not about bringing extremely high priced actual Tour equipment to the hands of the weekend golfer, but about bringing Tour like performance to the rest of us. Can a piece of equipment give us a ball flight like TaylorMade Staffer Sergio Garcia?

Golf Push Cart Roundup
Buggies, trolleys, push carts…golfers from around the world have many names for these two or three wheeled devices to help lug those clubs around the course. Anyone who has pulled a two wheel cart behind them for 18 holes knows that process can be more trouble than it’s worth. The three wheeled push cart has helped transform the task from a painful experience to an easier walk in the park. Over the next week, we will be posting detailed reviews of a couple of the more popular push cart options available. Today we will have a quick look at the carts involved.
Alpha C830.4 - Interchangeable Shaft Driver
Looks like Alpha Golf has decided to join the interchangeable driver shaft market with their Alpha C830.4 driver. Check out this video on YouTube introducing the driver and describing the technology involved. Neat stuff!
2008 Callaway Women’s Shirts
Callaway recently sent me two ladies’ golf shirts to review and I’m now a convert to this brand of clothing that I had previously shied away from. I was immediately impressed by the style and feel of both shirts and after wearing them once on the golf course, I actually put one on knowing that I wouldn’t be hitting the links that day. These shirts are not only comfortable, but incredibly fashionable as well.
