Introducing the Auto Power Snipe and Flex Shafts: Precision and Distance Redefined

Golf enthusiasts, we are pleased to announce the upcoming release of two new additions to the Auto Power Shaft series by Dumina: the Snipe and the Flex. These shafts will be available at authorized golf retailers and workshops starting March 24, 2025.

Dumina has established a strong reputation for producing high-performance shafts since 2013, with their products utilized by professional golfers achieving notable tour victories. The new Snipe and Flex models incorporate the proprietary “KOREA HIDDEN TECHNOLOGY,” a feature that contributed significantly to the success of the Auto Flex Shaft series.

AutoPower Snipe:

The Snipe shaft is engineered for golfers who prioritize precision and control. Its design emphasizes stability and enhanced clubhead feel, enabling consistent shot shaping and accuracy. The slightly counterbalanced design facilitates a smooth swing and minimizes lateral dispersion, making it an ideal choice for players seeking reliable performance in competitive settings.

Augusta National Golf Club chairman Fred Ridley announced Monday that five-time Masters champion Tiger Woods, who last won in 2019, and his TGR Design firm are crafting a nine-hole short course at the Patch, the former Augusta Municipal Golf Course.

Practice at the Masters was suspended late Monday morning, and spectators were pulled off the golf course because of worsening rain and the threat of thunderstorms.

One of the most underrated tools for golfers isn’t a new club or training aid—it’s a shot journal. Keeping track of your performance, thoughts, and patterns can give you insight into your game that practice alone can’t.

Why It Works

• Identifies patterns in your strengths and weaknesses

• Helps you recall what worked under pressure

• Strengthens your mental game through reflection

• Builds a record of progress over time

The Masters returns as Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy and more compete for a green jacket. Here's all the coverage.

Vijay Singh has withdrawn from the Masters with an undisclosed injury.

It’s Masters week and you know what that means.

Masters swag … a whole lot of it. Of course, nobody is going to call it “Masters” anything because of trademarks, but when we hear phrases like season opener or azalea collection, we know what’s up.

And so here we are ogling TaylorMade’s 2025 Season Opener Collection – the rendition of what has become a tradition for TaylorMade.

While TaylorMade hasn’t done much in the way of themed limited edition clubs, the company is offering up an assortment of headcovers, golf balls, and a staff bag.

At $600, I’d argue the latter is wholly impractical, but if you’re a collector of all things Augusta or really looking to make an obnoxious statement on the golf course, the staff bag is absolutely worth considering.

Can Scottie Scheffler repeat? Is this finally Rory McIlroy's year? We break down the Masters field from the clear favorites all the way to the players just looking to make the cut.

Callaway has dropped a new version of its popular Chrome Soft golf ball and something about it sure looks familiar.

The design of the new Chrome Soft 360 Yellow Stripe bears more than a passing resemblance to TaylorMade’s Tour Response Stripe. I’m guessing you didn’t need me to point that out.

Neon yellow? Really?

Not Callaway’s first stripe

For what it’s worth, the new 360 Yellow Stripe isn’t Callaway’s first foray into the world of stripes.  

360 Triple Track, which is basically just an unfilled stripe, has been in the lineup for a while.

Days before making his Masters return following a lengthy prison sentence, Angel Cabrera captured his first-ever PGA Tour Champions win.

Not long ago we shared a list of the top-selling cheap golf balls of last season. This time around, we’re looking at the premium golf balls that dominated sales last year.

While the balls on last week’s list average roughly $25 a dozen, the leaders in the premium category sell for more than $50 a dozen. They include the most popular choices for avid and serious golfers who are willing to pay a comparable premium for the performance offered by multilayer constructions and urethane covers.

As with our previous list, here’s the fine print: not every place that sells golf balls reports sales data. With that, sales data for direct-to-consumer brands can be spotty. That said, it’s also true that, unlike most golf equipment categories, the majority of golf ball sales still happen on-course so there’s at least a case to be made that the data, while not perfect, is more reliable than it would be for other equipment categories.

Before we get to the top five, here are some things that you might find interesting.

Titleist dominates

Three of the top five best-selling golf balls are produced by Titleist.

It’s been a long eight months since the last major championship but the Masters is finally here.

We’ll be getting into coverage of the actual golf soon enough but there is still time to geek out over Masters lore and everything else that makes this tournament a singular patron experience.

If you missed it, we have run through a one-day Masters patron itinerary, described the must-have experiences for those attending and ranked the top food items at concessions.

Now we are delving into the history of Augusta National Golf Club and the Masters.

Most of you reading this know the core facts about Augusta National’s founding and how the Masters came to prominence. You know the names of co-founders Clifford Roberts and Bobby Jones, the genius of architect Alister MacKenzie and all of the iconic moments from the tournament.

One of the unique advantages adidas has as a 75-year-old sportswear brand is, well, 75 years of innovation, product and design to pull from when creating the latest and greatest.

This archive acts as a foundation for a lot of what the brand does today. Leaning on legacy products and storied heritage is exactly what differentiates adidas footwear from a sea of sportswear giants.

Sometimes, it’s learning from past failures to create something totally new and innovative. Other times, as is the case with the COURSECUP, they mine this wealth of knowledge and product to create something with modern bones and storied DNA.

What difference does 46 years make?

Before adidas landed on the new COURSECUP, they dove deep into the archives and spent time with the GOLD CUP from 1986. This 40-year-old golf shoe served as the inspiration for the COURSECUP, evidenced by the removable kiltie and oh-so-soft leather upper.

You’ll notice a few other surface-level changes, too. Namely, the absence of Velcro. While it played well in 1986, the “kids these days” are more into laces.

Great traction in a golf shoe gives you the confidence to swing without worrying about slipping or sliding. Golfers have traditionally turned to spiked shoes for the best grip but in 2025, we found that the top spikeless models now rival their spiked counterparts in traction. We’ve pulled together the three best spikeless and three best spiked golf shoes for traction. If you want to attack the ball without questioning the support under your feet, these are the shoes for you.

adidas adizero ZG (Spikeless)

The adidas adizero ZG is the most stable spikeless golf shoe of 2025 and it also tops the list for traction. It’s lightweight, low-profile and built with serious torsional rigidity.

The reason the adizero ZG didn’t top the list of best spikeless shoes in 2025 was its performance in the wet. The waterproof Sprintskin synthetic upper didn’t hold up quite as well as other waterproof protection.
