Yes! Golf Callie F Forged Putter – “Tour Putter in a Box”

Oct 13

You may have already experienced Yes! Golf’s line of C-groove putters. Their “concentric groove” technology grabs onto the ball’s surface to impart over spin for a truer roll which helps the ball track more precisely to the hole.

Sonartec SS-03 Stainless Steel Fairway Wood

Oct 06

I must confess the name Sonartec wasn’t overly familiar to me before I agreed to test-drive their (apparently) very successful fairway wood. Australian distributor Quality Golf set up a 3 wood with a stiff shaft, 14 degree loft and said have a rip – tell us what you think.
