AFO has carved out a niche in the easy-to-hit market (recall our first flying lesson with the DFX), and the nitrogen charged Air Foil’ certainly hits the mark in this regard and you can win you a sash in a ball flight beauty contest. The fairway wood is available in a 15-degree 3-wood and 19-degree 5-wood. The Air Foil rings the register at $149 and comes with an AFO Fujikura graphite stock shaft or you can upgrade to other shaft options for an extra $50.
The sky’s still the limit but when you use “the Force” pulling off high trajectory and on-target fairway wood blasts is a whole lot easier. Thanks to a unique dual slot design, the Air Foil flexes inward on impact allowing the nitrogen embedded in the club head to thrust the face back towards its initial position at incredible velocity. This creates a mighty slingshot effect and coupled with a high launch angle makes getting your golf ball up in the air a snap.

There’s a children’s book by Robert Munsch called Pyjama Day where jammies must meet strict criteria: they not only should look great, but smell and taste amazing too. Well after two years of research and development and twelve rounds of prototypes the designers at Wonderous who launched a Kickstarter campaign for their Forever OG’s have raised the great expectation watermark, their 3 ply cotton silver threaded twill slacks are odor and stain repellent, and also lifetime guaranteed.
“Our inspiration for The Forever O.G. Pants was simple. We saw how cheap pants don’t last and how expensive pants don’t fit for long.” asserted, Jeff Chang, Founder, Wonderous. “With our lifetime size exchange program you never have to worry about size again. Just exchange out your pair for a pair that fits.”Wonderous has a very cosmopolitan pant-print manufacturing in New York with buttons from San Francisco and custom fabric from LA and the pants come in classic or slim fit. Wonderous hopes to ship the Forever O.G. in time for Christmas. Basking in the afterglow of his first major championship victory, Jimmy Walker took the Wanamaker Trophy to Vegas. Golf’s venerable silver cup was previously best known as the trophy every player want to kiss, but after getting to first base what else do you do to keep things fresh?
The Oven is Empty
Mojo, PD, RZN no more Hyperflight, hyper-hype, the Swoosh has left the clubhouse Igniting on the scene in late ’03 Tiger unleashing their might Big and bold and Mellow Yellow Strong as a Sasquatch, stable as a Sumo wrestler Brute strength and beastly power Roaring Impact noise Big Wiesy is the Power Lady Juice ball bounds down the fairway Greens attacked with Slingshots On the dance floor pull out the Method and roll it in the hole Victory Red and Machspeed reinvented the brash ‘Tude But evidently not enough peeps fell for the Covert and Vapor which preceded the vanishing act. So, the oven is empty. University of South Carolina golf coach Billy Mac waxes wise and erudite on everything from analytical freak factors coaches look for while recruiting to how to counsel golfers post-apocalyptic-hole-meltdown. We even get into the nitty gritty on sport's academic stereotypes and the unsung merits of Taco Bell's Crunch Wrap Supreme. If you're looking for the pin girl hat it is culled from Hole Hunter Industries cap collection Granola bars have been the go-to golf snack for ages, mainly because they keep well and give players an energy kick, but sport specific nutrition bars, now that’s a much newer animal. You’ve probably seen 1st Tee and 10th tee bars on the counter at pro shops but have you given one a nibble? We got very well acquainted with them treating each bar with the same respect and dignity an oenophile would give to a bottle of Chateau Petrus. Find out which bar will suit your game best?
Rory, this feel like a Smiths song: "there is a pot bunker you can never get out."

No one enjoys scrubbing your golf clubs clean after a round but it's not just about aesthetics, clean clubs perform better. When your clubs are grimy and the grooves on the clubface are clogged by muck and dirt you’re going to have difficulty on your approach shots. You're not going to be able to generate enough spin making it harder to stick your shots onto greens and for low handicappers you won’t be able to impart enough backspin to curl shots back to the pin.
You’re going to need some liquid dish soap, a towel, a bucket of water, golf cleaning implements with steel wool and soft bristles (an old toothbrush with some elbow grease behind it will also do the trick). You only need enough water in the bucket to cover your clubheads and a single squirt of soap will generate enough suds to get the job done. If you’re using a golf specific brush tool remember to only use the stiffer wire bristles for cleaning irons—woods should only be cleaned with the softer nylon bristles so that you don’t damage the clubface. And watch our video above for more key tips, including why Kikkoman soy sauce buckets are Ichiban.
