Save Money on Golf Balls
Let's face it, golf balls can be expensive, especially if you are a beginner or don't play often where you tend to lose balls that happen to find water hazards or eek out of bounds beyond arms or club length. Premium balls cost $4 each at retail, while economy balls run close to $2 apiece so if you lose a sleeve or more per round, that adds up quickly over time.
Why do you never see a pro or their caddie using a golf ball retriever when you watch golf on TV? For one, these players are really, really good and seldom do they lose a ball. More importantly, they get their balls for free! If us mere mortals were as fortunate it would make this one accessory obsolete. That is why a golf ball retriever can be a great addition to your bag and pay for itself several times over. So, what are the features to look for?

Ever since January 1, 2016, when the USGA and R&A banned anchoring the putter to the body, users of long and belly putters began to look for new ways to make the stroke simpler and stress-free. One such adopted putting technique became known as "arm lock". This is where the grip rests (or locks) against the left forearm (for a right-handed golfer) during the stroke. The benefits are to help quiet the wrists and let you rotate the shoulders. The arm-lock style also creates a natural forward press or positions your hands ahead of the ball at impact.
First popularized by Matt Kuchar, other notable golfers who have successfully switched to an arm lock putting style are Bryson DeChambeau, Keegan Bradley, and Webb Simpson. And yes, the arm lock putting technique does conform to the Rules of Golf.

Less Taper, More Power
One of the growing trends in golf that you might not be aware of is that grips are becoming less tapered. If you ask why, there are usually two key reasons. For one is for comfort and secondly it is for control.
Another term you may have heard is "reduced taper", which is the same as a less taper. Both Golf Pride with the MCC Plus4 and CP2 series along with Lamkin's ST Hybrid +2 and Star's Tour Star+ are a few models on the market today. This past year Winn introduce a new model to it very popular DriTac series aptly named DriTac LT for Less Taper to augment their comprehensive series. Now there is a soft, polyurethane model to choose from. The Winn Dri-Tac LT also comes in 3 different sizes to suit the majority of players.
