I’ve started testing out a new golf push cart from the Canadian company Axglo. This cart is their V3 “Smooth Handling Model.

So far I’d have to say I fully agree with the smooth handling part. I’ve had the cart out for some laps at my home course and the cart rolls like butter. It is super balanced and easy to push as well.

Above: the front wheel can rotate 360 degrees, or it can be locked in place.

Below you can see the nice transport bag in the trunk of my car. The cart folds and goes into the bag for easy storage, throwing in the trunk of the car, or travel.

There are two very large storage areas which are super convenient.  Here’s how they look closed:

Here is compartment #1.  Good for quick access stuff, like Altoids! You never know when you might need fresh breath, ahem.

Below is the larger compartment. You can fit a ton of stuff in here. Some ideas: sunglasses, golf balls, car keys, hats, tees, cigars, snacks.

I’ll be putting this fine looking cart through the full HOG test battery and posting a full review soon. That review probably won’t be before Father’s Day though. So pull the trigger on one if you’re thinking about it.  I can already tell this is a great cart!

As the golf world gears up for the 2023 PGA Championship, Oak Hill Golf Course in Rochester, New York, is set to host the event for the fourth time in its history. The course, which was designed by Donald Ross, is known for its rolling hills, tree-lined fairways, and challenging greens. In this blog post, we’ll take a deeper look at Oak Hill Golf Course and explore two or three of its most interesting and challenging holes.

First opened in 1901, Oak Hill Golf Course has long been considered one of the most prestigious courses in the United States. The course has hosted numerous major championships, including the U.S. Open, Ryder Cup, and PGA Championship, and has been played by some of the greatest golfers of all time.

One of the most interesting holes on the course is the par-3 15th. This hole features a downhill tee shot that must carry over a pond to reach the green. The green is surrounded by several bunkers, making it crucial for players to hit an accurate shot to avoid a difficult recovery.

Another challenging hole is the par-4 16th. This hole features a narrow fairway that slopes severely from right to left, making it difficult to keep the ball in play. The green is also guarded by several bunkers, making it crucial for players to hit an accurate approach shot to avoid a difficult recovery.

Finally, the par-4 18th is one of the most iconic finishing holes in all of golf. This hole features a narrow fairway with out-of-bounds on the right and a creek that runs along the left. The green is elevated and guarded by several bunkers, making it a difficult target for players to hit.

In conclusion, Oak Hill Golf Course is a challenging and exciting course that will no doubt provide a thrilling stage for the 2023 PGA Championship. With its rolling hills, tree-lined fairways, and challenging greens, it is sure to test the skills of even the best golfers in the world.

First Look: Travis Mathew Heater Polo

I’m always on the lookout for golf clothing that matches my lifestyle and personality. I have tried dozens of brands, and Travis Mathew has stood out for years. Their products are stylish, comfortable, and perfect for both on and off the golf course. Recently I couldn’t help notice the killer styling of newly crowned Masters Tournament champion John Rahm, sporting Travis Mathew apparel.

About Travis Mathew

Travis Mathew is a lifestyle brand that was founded in Southern California in 2007. The brand was created by Travis Johnson and Ryan Ellis, who wanted to create clothing that was stylish, comfortable, and perfect for the modern man’s active lifestyle. Over the years, Travis Mathew has become one of the most popular brands in the golf industry, worn by top players like John Rahm.

What I love about Travis Mathew is their attention to detail. Each product is designed with the customer in mind, ensuring that it meets their needs and preferences. The brand’s commitment to quality and innovation has earned them a loyal following in the golf community and beyond.

First Look at the Travis Mathew Heater Polo

The Travis Mathew Heater Polo is one of the brand’s most popular products, and for a good reason. This golf polo is perfect for the modern golfer who wants to look and feel their best on the course. The Heater Polo is available in a range of colors, from classic black to bold red, so you can choose the one that best matches your style. Sizes range from small to XXXL.

The polo is made from 70% Recycled Polyester, 23% Cotton, 7% Spandex. Polyester and Spandex? Back in the 80’s that meant something a bit different than it does now. These days those fabrics translate to comfort and performance. The material is also moisture-wicking, which keeps you cool and dry even on the hottest days.

Performance Features of the Heater Polo for Golf

The Travis Mathew Heater Polo is designed to perform. The polo has a classic design that is perfect for golfers who want to look their best on the course. The polo features a three-button placket, which gives it a timeless look. The collar is also designed to stay in place, so you don’t have to worry about it getting in your way during your swing.

One of the key features of the Heater Polo is its breathability. The polo has a vented back panel that allows air to circulate, keeping you cool and comfortable during your round. The polo also has a UPF 50+ rating, which means that it provides excellent protection from the sun’s harmful rays.

Style

As with all Travis Mathew polos, the Heater oozes class and style. The lines are clean and elegantly simple.

Stay Tuned

Can’t wait to up my style game and put the polo through the rigorous HOG testing battery. Stay tuned for the full review, which I’ll post after I’ve put the Heater through some test rounds, test washings, and probably test spilling salsa on it.


First Look: Three Sixty Six Collarless Golf Polo Shirt

I’m all about supporting the entrepreneurs and small golf companies. I love helping promote and expose cool products in the golf world, from equipment to apparel. Today I’m taking my very first look at shirts by Three Sixty Six.

Men’s Quick-Dry Collarless Golf Polo

Very interesting design. It’s a collarless, but has a sort of a mock collar. Will the country club collar police approve?  Probably.

Here are some highlights from Three Sixty Six

  • 100% Polyester
  • Button closure
  • Machine Wash
  • DRY FIT AND ANTI-ODOR TECHNOLOGY – Designed with moisture-wicking fabric, Three Sixty Six’s mens golf shirts wick sweat away from your skin and evaporate it, keeping you cool, dry and comfortable on and off the golf course.
  • LIGHTWEIGHT AND BREATHABLE GOLF SHIRTS FOR MEN – Made with ultra-soft jersey fabric, this mens polo shirt is lightweight and breathable, giving you maximum ventilation and allowing you to keep cool during those hot days on the golf course.
  • COLLARLESS AND RAGLAN DESIGN – These polos are designed with a modern collarless look, a button up placket, and a hidden button flap for extra sleekness. Not only that, these polo shirts are considered raglans, which have sleeves that stretch fully to the collar in one piece allowing you to extend your arms with full mobility.
  • LIGHTWEIGHT AND BREATHABLE – Made with 100% polyester, this mens collarless golf polo shirt is thin to the skin but made with maximum durability and extreme breathability. Features a thinly striped design embedded into the fabric and side vents for better mobility and style.

As far as I can tell, there are somewhere between 19-24 colors. Depends on what website you go to. The sizes range from small to XXXX-Large! Big boys rejoice!

Non Stock Photo

I always try to post my own images, but I struggle getting decent apparel shots. That is why I included a stock photo above. I think this polo is better looking in person than the stock photo!

I haven’t even tried this on yet, but I already can tell I’m going to dig it. The fabric is super soft and it’s obviously going to fit comfortably.

Stay tuned for my pending review. I’ll put it through a few cycles and see how it performs!
