Dunning Golf Tour Edition Players Sweater
Since 2001 Dunning Golf has been a maker of very high quality, high performance golf apparel. Ralph Dunning uses proprietary performance fabrics and combines them with very classy styles and designs. The end result is the most comfortable, best looking, and highest performance golf apparel I’ve reviewed. Today’s review of the new Tour Edition Players Sweater is no different. Let us take a look.
Merino Wool
The Tour Edition Players Sweater is made from 100% Australian merino wool. Before you start thinking you’d be too hot and too itchy, let me tell you that this type of wool is so soft and smooth you might mistake it for silk.
The wool seems to regulate the body temperature. It breathes well and provides insulation and warmth when needed, but does not get too hot.

Style
“It’s slimming…” That’s what the lady said to me the first time I put on the TEPS (Tour Edition Players Sweater). Based on that comment alone I’m sold! I’m not exactly on the radar for modeling in the next men’s apparel magazine or anything…
The style of this sweater is all class, great to wear on or off the course.
Colors/Sizes
No need for a myriad of colors. Two is plenty, “Halo” (blue, pictured) and Charcoal gray.
Sizes range from small to double extra-large.
On The Course / Performance
I’m wearing a sweater on the course because I need a little bit of insulation to stay warm and keep the back loose. Often times wearing these types of layers means a compromise in comfort and movement. Those compromises mean bad golf swings. Not the case with the TEPS. The freedom of movement in the golf swing with this sweater is fantastic.
No restrictions. No binding. No stretching anywhere. Swing freely.

Conclusion
I was surprised to see the pricing on this sweater was only $125 retail. I had it pegged for $199-$249 based on the quality, materials, and style.
When judging golf apparel there four criteria I use, in this order: performance, comfort, style, convenience. The Dunning Golf Tour Edition Players Sweater earns the highest marks across the board. That comes as no surprise. That’s what I would expect from Dunning.
Golf Club Stand Beer Mug Stand
A short time ago I blew up with a rant about these awful “golf club stands.” They’re inventions no serious golfer will ever use, which have been reinvented about a billion times. Why a golf inventor or entrepreneur would spend valuable time and money developing one of these useless sticks in the ground was beyond me, until yesterday…
I was sitting on the back porch enjoying some spring sunshine with a frosty Peroni in my hand. Next to me were several of these golf club stands which the wife had been using in the garden to hold up her tomato plants. I realized that the green one was perfect for holding up my beer mug.
So, I apologize for being so critical of all those golf inventors who have invented the golf club stand over and over. I just realized I have about 15 beer mug stands! The next party in my backyard is going to rock.
Filed under the Boneheads category…
You can’t make this stuff up. A model at a Playboy golf tournament allowed a hacker to tee up a golf ball in her butt. The hacker “hit the big ball before the little ball” as we say in the game, striking the model’s butt with what appears to be a TaylorMade R1 driver.
The model is seeking $500,000 plus punitive damages through a suit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, for negligence and battery.

After seeing a photo of Kid Rock with a Golf WRX logo across his face I had no choice. I must give credit where credit is due to Golf WRX. There is no golf website out there better at taking pictures of golf bags which contain custom tour clubs that the average golfer can’t get, and if they could, they’d probably never be able to hit them.
Because the photos golf bags which contain custom tour clubs that the average golfer can’t get, and if they could, they’d probably never be able to hit them, are so awesome, a watermark is placed on the photos to discourage people from stealing them. Imagine having your own photo of a golf bag which contains custom tour clubs that the average golfer can’t get, and if they could, they’d probably never be able to hit them, appear on the cover of Time Magazine (because it is so awesome) and not getting credit for it!
In honor of the awesome job Golf WRX does with their watermarking photos of golf bags which contain custom tour clubs that the average golfer can’t get, and if they could, they’d probably never be able to hit them, I decided to create a slideshow of the 10 worst Golf WRX watermarks, along with one bonus. The list goes to 11! Click the image below to begin the slideshow and enjoy!
