Where Have We Been?

Loyal GT readers may have noticed a drop-off in blog postings of late. No, we're not on the golf course every day (okay, one day last week, but it was business, we swear).

We've been hard at work on two issues: our Annual Equipment Buyer's Guide (look for it on newsstands late January or early February) and our February/March issue. Writing about all that golf equipment has left us without much free time to update the blog, but you're better off for it, as two great new issues await you in the new year.

A couple new sections to look for in our first regular issue include a "We Tried It" section where we test out the new products (in Feb/Mar tell you what we think of Mizuno MX 200 irons, the Bridgestone e7+ ball, Cleveland XLi irons and Cobra L5V driver). We also tried out some new offerings from Tour Edge last week (the Exotics XCG V and XLD V drivers, Dave Glod putters, XCG V 3-wood and the non-Exotic line TCG sand wedge). That last wedge may be next year's best bargain, ringing up for a measly $40. Honestly I couldn't tell much of a difference between it and wedges that sell for three times that amount.

Keep your eyes on this blog for the latest in equipment, instruction and travel.

A Convert? Not Yet.





A couple weeks ago Jay Hubbard from Tour Edge paid us a visit. He brought a bag full of their latest offerings: new XCG irons; GeoMax 2 Driver, fairway woods and hybrids; and many, many more.

We hit the clubs for awhile. I was a bit rusty, but I liked what I saw.

When we got to the JMAX Draw Iron-Woods I almost didn't want to hit them. After all, I'm a blade man with a low handicap. Really, what's the point of hitting these game improvement sticks?

Shhoomph.

That's what it sounded like when I hit them. If it isn't one of the most forgiving clubs I've ever hit, it's certainly a close second. At that moment I had a vision of me at 65 swinging a heck of a lot slower than I do now and with a bad back, hips and arthritis. And probably hitting an iron-wood so I can still enjoy the game.

If you fit that description, you should seriously consider testing a set of iron-woods. I think you'll be amazed at how forgiving they really are.
