The British weather doesn’t exactly cooperate with our golfing ambitions, does it?

That’s where practice golf balls come in—and not … Read more
You’ve just splashed your third Pro V1 into the pond at your local course this month, and you’re starting to wonder if your golf budget needs a reality check. The question that follows is inevitable: are lake balls worth it, or are you simply buying someone else’s problem? Here’s what most golfers don’t realise until … Read more

Golf balls disappear. Into the rough, over hedges, into water hazards that seem to have a magnetic pull on your best drives—it’s just part of the game.
