By now, you have likely read and heard endless anguish and musings about the recent decision by the USGA and R&A to tweak the testing for...
I’ve long been fascinated with the way the golf swing works, from full driver swings to the shortest chip shots. I’m sure that curiosity was embedded...
Over my 30-plus years writing about equipment and designing wedges, I must have been asked thousands of times: “How do I get more spin with my...
At Edison Golf, we’ve been doing a number of user reviews with various forums, including this one with the GolfWRX community. I always like to try...
Today’s post is somewhat of a continuation of some prior writings on the subject of the relative difficulty of the courses we play versus the difficulty...
That may seem like a rather strange title for an article, but hear me out. I’ve written this blog every week for nearly 20 years so...
While there are many golfers who barely know where the practice (I don’t like calling it a “driving”) range is located, there are many who find...
As someone who has observed rank-and-file recreational golfers for most of my life – over 50 years of it, anyway – I have always been baffled...
As promised, here is the follow-up to last week’s post about understanding iron designs. Today, I’m going to tell you what to look for as you...
As we all know, the universe of iron designs is immensely diverse, with nearly every brand offering at least three or four models of each of...
One of the most important elements of optimizing your scoring range performance is to get consistent and reliable distance gapping in your prime scoring clubs. For...
If you’ve read my blog for long, you know I’m not afraid to take on things in the golf equipment world that I think do not...
Editor’s note: The featured image is of Alex Noren‘s heavily calloused hands. I’ve made a life out of watching so many recreational golfers struggle to achieve...
One of the things that drives me crazy is to watch golfers struggle around the greens, as hitting a golf ball less than 20-30 yards in...
This week’s post is somewhat of a continuation of the recent path we’ve been on, discussing the nuances of those high-loft clubs at the short end...
One side-effect of the relentless effort by major iron makers to win the “launch monitor wars” that pit one 6- or 7-iron against another is that...
An old adage in golf equipment is that the shaft is “the engine of the golf club,” and that is one old sage piece of advice...
Let’s try to cover the basics of sand play – the “geometry and physics” at work in the bunkers – and see if we can make...
One of the most frustrating things in golf has to be missing short putts. I’m talking about putts under six feet for the most part here,...
In earlier posts, I’ve put forth the notion that most of us are playing golf courses that are much, much tougher on us than the weekly...
There was an extremely romantic line from Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare that professes, “A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” That...
As you might imagine, I get many emails from golfers asking all kinds of questions about their equipment. These range from set make-up, to shafts, to...
I am repeatedly asked about my thoughts and opinion on the best way to approach short-range scoring shots that require something less than a full swing....
I always find it interesting to watch how golfers interact with the practice range, if they do so at all. I certainly can figure out how...
Today’s post is going to seem like heresy, but I think far too much emphasis is put on distance and not nearly enough on ball-striking and...
There is no question that golf is one of the hardest, if not the hardest, games in which to become reasonably proficient. For this discussion, let’s...
In last week’s post, I dissected the wedge into its relative component parts to explore what really makes a wedge work. Like any golf club, wedges...

Regardless of your average scores or the way you play the game, the mass appeal of this great game of golf is that you can always...

Having lived my entire life in South Texas, one of the things I had to learn very quickly when I went into the golf business nearly...
One of the things that really bothers me about most of the newer iron models that are introduced is the continued strengthening of the lofts —...
This has always been my favorite week of the year, well, at least since I got old enough to understand that Christmas gifts do not just...
