Phil Mickelson used to carry two drivers at Augusta National. Now, he may have a lot more options available to him thanks to Callaway's new adjustability technology.
Terry Eck prefers not to call his invention a training aid, but an “interactive development system.” Either way, the product links the feeling between big muscles used in the correct swing and the brain's muscle memory.
Lorena Ochoa, the reigning women's world No. 1, opened her 2008 season with an 11-stroke win at the HSBC Women's Champions. Part of the reason? Her putter, a Ping Redwood ZB.
After a good three-plus years in business, the last thing Heavy Putter designer and Boccieri Golf president and CEO Stephen Boccieri expected to be doing is club building. But he's not complaining.
What goes around, comes around in the golf industry — usually seeing a great deal of improvement on the way. That's the story behind the new Polarity MTR irons from Nicklaus Golf, which are based on a patent owned by club designer Clay Long.

Paul Goydos, even by his own admission, is a veteran journeyman. What Goydos lacks in talent, he more than makes up for it in sheer character. And the PGA Tour could use more players like him.
