Swing Through, Not Just To the Ball
One of the most common mistakes golfers make — especially beginners and mid-handicappers — is treating the golf ball as the final destination of their swing. But here’s the truth: your swing shouldn’t stop at the ball.
If you want cleaner contact, better power, and improved consistency, you need to swing through the ball, not just to it.
The Ball Is Not the Finish Line
Think of the ball as simply in the way of your swing path, not the end point. When you focus solely on striking the ball, your swing tends to decelerate or collapse at impact, leading to:
Topped or chunked shots
Loss of power
Paula Creamer, a 10-time winner on the LPGA Tour, including the 2010 U.S. Women's Open, has been names as an assistant captain for next year's Solheim Cup at Bernardus Golf in the Netherlands.
Vice has just dropped its Green Mile Club limited edition collection, and while the company has done plenty of cool limited edition stuff in the past, this may be its finest work yet.
In this context, the Green Mile refers to the final three holes at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina – the 2025 PGA Championship site. The final stretch of holes is renowned for its difficulty and has been a pivotal factor in determining the outcome of major tournaments held at the course.
Said another way, the Green Mile Club is Vice’s way of commemorating the 2025 PGA Championship.
The collection includes a slit towel (sweet), a cap (it’s fine), a divot tool and ball marker set (nice), tees (whatever), and Vice Pro Golf Balls.
The limited edition golf balls feature a compass graphic, Green Mile sidestamp, special packaging, and most notably, a monochromatic stripe design similar to what you’ll find on TaylorMade’s TP5 Stripe.

I never thought I’d say this.
Fresh off the heels of their incredible collab with Jon Buscemi, FootJoy is back with their own limited drop (with more to come).
Dubbed the “Legend Series”, FootJoy is trickling out a few limited-edition Premiere Series styles throughout the year, starting with a floral take on the Premiere Series Packard.
Complete with a pink floral outsole, this special pair caught my eye from the jump. It’s somewhat unlike FootJoy to dive this deeply into the limited drops and scarcity principle. But there’s no better time to do so.
Today, I am checking something off my putter collector bucket list. For as long as I can remember, I have wanted to send a beat-up old putter to the Scotty Cameron Custom Shop for a full restoration.
I can’t count the number of times I have created theoretical Custom Shop putters using Scotty Cameron’s online tool. Often, I would work out restoration schemes for putters I didn’t even own.
I suppose I wanted to know what was possible with a given putter should I ever run across a model of Cameron in a golf shop’s used bin.
Today, my restorative reverie becomes a reality.
A few weeks back, I picked up a used Scotty Cameron putter at my local golf shop, figured out my restoration recipe and sent the putter to the Scotty Cameron Custom Shop for a full restoration.
You don’t need a complete set of new clubs to feel like you get a fresh start heading into the golf season. Some small swaps can clean up your gear and maybe help you save a few shots in your first rounds of the season. Here are five things worth replacing before your first tee time of the year.
The glove that’s been through a few too many rounds
If your glove feels more like cardboard than Cabretta, it’s time. A stretched-out glove with worn fingertips and slick patches doesn’t help your connection to the club. When the weather starts to warm up, you may be better off taking that worn glove off than even attempting to play with it.
Start the season with a fresh glove. We just tested 60 gloves and the best was the PXG Players. However, there are also gloves on the list for under $10 if you’re on a budget.
That sunscreen that’s older than your driver
Did you know that sunscreen expires? If you’ve kept that same tube of sunscreen in your bag for the last four seasons, toss it. Sunscreen breaks down with heat and time so if you are going to protect your skin, try to do it the right way.
Sweat-resistant sunscreens are a good choice for golfers. I recently tried the 1st Tee Sun Blessed Skin Golf Sunscreen. It’s made to be grease-free so if you have to reapply in the middle of the round, it’s not going to ruin your golf grips. It’s lightweight, non-greasy and dries quickly but I’ll still always wash my hands before touching my grips.
The question comes up from time to time: How are women’s golf clubs different from men’s? While it wasn’t always the case (and may still not be with some brands), manufacturers are putting more effort into engineering golf clubs specifically for women. We can chalk that up to growth in participation and women becoming increasingly invested in the performance side of the game.
So, while the engineering gap is narrowing, women’s clubs still aren’t exactly the same as men’s … although the differences aren’t as dramatic as you might think.
Before we break down the specifics, it’s worth pointing out that pretty much every piece of golf equipment is designed around some concept of the “average” for a given player archetype. With that in mind, typical women’s clubs are designed to meet the needs of the average female golfer.
Women’s clubs are lighter
Working off our averages, women are typically smaller in physical stature and generally not as strong as men. To address these needs, women’s clubs – from drivers to wedges – tend to be lighter than clubs designed for men. Weight reduction in the head, shaft and grip is common. As a result, swing weights are lower as well.
The idea is to make clubs easier to swing and reduce fatigue. The trade-off is that MOI (moment of inertia) is tied to weight so lighter heads mean lower MOI measurements. But at the average female swing speed, this isn’t much to worry about.
You can say many things pro and con about Bridgestone Golf but there’s one thing you can’t say and still be taken seriously.
You can’t say that Bridgestone, as a company, is sitting on its hands.
In support of the preceding declaration, I submit to you today’s launch of the Bridgestone Electron, the company’s first-ever golf ball designed specifically for juniors.
“It’s designed to help younger players launch the ball more easily and have more fun playing golf,” said Bridgestone CEO Dan Murphy in a prepared statement. “We’re proud to have used our (ball fitting) data to develop the Electron specifically to meet the needs of junior players.”
We’re not sure whether it’s the first ball that’s ever been designed specifically for juniors but we do know for a fact it’s the first one that’s being launched today. (This is called investigative journalism.)
When a polo can pull double duty for me (be worn on the course and off), it’s a key selling point. Performance polos, specifically, seem to check all the boxes. Lightweight? Yep. Stretchy and comfortable? You bet. Look as good for date night as they do on the first tee? You know it. The polos below fit the bill and will have you feeling comfortable all day long whether that is on the course or heading to date night after a full day of work.
Sunday Swagger – Jawbreaker Polo
Sunday Swagger is known for bold designs and not being shy about showing them off. When I stumbled upon the jawbreaker polo, I found it to be a blend of both worlds. The bright blue body with flecks of electric green and grey absolutely will draw some attention in a more subdued way. This polo is very soft and stretchy, providing long-lasting comfort and style.
Rhoback – The Mulligan
Rhoback and comfort have become synonymous, almost like peanut butter and jelly. (Sorry, that was lame. Back to the focus at hand!) The mulligan polo features a breathable fabric built for activity in a wrinkle-free design. Four-way stretch moves with you while a structured collar never loses its shape so you stay looking sharp. This polo looks great tucked and untucked so you’ll be prepared for a round of golf or date night whenever you slip it on.
Under Armour Playoff 3.0 Printed Polo
You can’t write an article about performance polos and comfort and not include Under Armour’s Playoff 3.0 polo. Featuring four-way stretch fabric that wicks moisture away to keep you cool and dry, this polo is built for all-day comfort. Anti-pick, anti-pill fabric ensures you’ll always be looking your best no matter the occasion.
Avalon Golf Co. Luxe Polo
When it comes to blending performance, looks and comfort, not many brands do it as well as Avalon Golf Co. The Luxe polo is one of their newest offerings and features a buttery-soft material and knit collar so you’ll be ready to take on the course or a night out on the town while looking your best. This is one of the most comfortable polos I’ve worn and I highly suggest giving it a look!
