There is a lot of cool gear in the golf equipment world that doesn’t always fit neatly into Most Wanted Tests or Buyer’s Guides. You still want to know how it performs. In our We Tried It series, we put gear to the test and let you know if it works as advertised.
What We Tried:
The Precision Pro Titan Elite Rangefinder. Known for making accurate devices that provide great value, the new Titan Elite is Precision Pro’s new flagship product and it’s a got a few fancy tricks up its sleeve.
Who Tried It:
Connor. Managing Editor and resident sneakerhead. I’ve always been a GPS guy but the Precision Pro Titan Elite might be the perfect way to get me into a rangefinder. Why? It functions both as a rangefinder (for pin-hunting) and a GPS (for when I just need the front, middle or back of the green).
I won’t lie: my wife is a little confused as to why I need another device to tell me how far I am from the green. That’s probably because she knows I’m not actually good at golf. Regardless, as my game improves, so has my need for more precise yardages. Hence, the Precision Pro Titan Elite is in my bag.
Let’s talk about this new flagship rangefinder that carries a surprisingly affordable price tag.
The Zebra putters comeback is officially entering what’s known as “the hard part.”
The Brand Resurrection Playbook says that while Year One is no cakewalk, Year Two is when you either establish yourself as a legit player or fade into the obscurity of a nostalgia-based money grab.
Zebra followed the Year One script faithfully. Designed by longtime Odyssey putter designer (and current head of Acushnet’s Putter R&D) Austie Rollinson, the AIT line captured Zebra’s legendary striped aura and sparked a fair amount of nostalgic buzz.
Performance-wise, the new Zebras were solid but uninspiring. The AIT 1 and AIT 2 mallets finished in the middle of the pack in last year’s MyGolfSpy testing while the AIT 4 Anser-style blade was a lower-third performer.
They did, however, outperform entries from some pretty big names such as PING, Evnroll, Bettinardi and Scotty Cameron.
If you spend enough time playing golf, you accumulate a lot of things. Shopping for a player who has been in the game a while and lives for it can be a little tricky. We feel your pain so we put together 10 of the best gifts for the golfer who has everything.
Stewart Golf Q Follow Carbon Edition
The Stewart Golf Q Follow Carbon Edition is a high-tech remote-controlled trolley made with lightweight carbon fiber. The coolest thing about this is that it follows you around the golf course (hands free).
Walking has many benefits and Stewart Golf has made it even easier with this golf trolley. The battery life on the premium model is 36 holes for most courses.
A Stewart Golf Q Follow Carbon Edition costs $3,449 with the 36-hole battery and $3,199 with the 18-hole battery. The unit comes with a charger, remote control and battery. If you can buy one of these before your golf-crazy friend thinks of it, it’s a gift they will be really impressed with.
Rapsodo MLM2PRO
The Rapsodo MLM2PRO is a mobile golf launch monitor. The MLM2PRO is $699 and offers detailed insights into any golfer’s game. When we tested the MLM2PRO, we were impressed with its accuracy compared to more expensive models.
Growing up, my dream was to play on the PGA Tour. Maybe you had the same dream, too.
Did you also practice putts to win the Masters? Turn your backyard into a makeshift course? Race to the local muni after school and walk as many holes as possible until it was too dark to see?
I attended Tour events at Doral, Muirfield Village and other venues that were staples of the game. I watched golf nonstop, hoping to glean something from the game’s best. I couldn’t sleep the night before playing a tournament because I wanted to win so badly.
If I could get inside those ropes one day, I will have made it. The dream would come true.
But as time passed, the context of that dream changed. And there were several layers to that.

“The second I saw PuttView, I knew it would make our putter testing better for millions of golfers,” says Adam Beach, MyGolfSpy Founder and Owner. “It’s the equivalent of when launch monitors first came out. There’s no going back.”
“It’s just better.”
MyGolfSpy is excited to announce a partnership with PuttView, makers of indoor interactive putting greens, to bring the company’s augmented reality technology to our new testing facility. After more than a year of planning, we’re excited to announce the centerpiece of the new 5,000-sqaure-foot MyGolfSpy headquarters: a 35’ x 25’ PuttView putting green.
In designing our new test facility, MyGolfSpy worked with PuttView to create a customized putting green as well as new software tools that will elevate our putter tests.
The addition of a PuttView putting green gives us the capability to test a variety of putt conditions including uphill, downhill and breaking putts from varying distances.
