5 Things That Would Take the Garmin R50 To the Next Level

I picked up my R50 when it was released, and it’s been an excellent addition to my golf collection, but some gaps would make this product incredible.

1. Playing individual holes and easy switching between holes/shots

Right now, the R50 allows you to play a large variety of courses, but if you want to play individual holes or shots on holes, you’re stuck playing the course to the hole you want to play and doing mulligan after mulligan to practice the hole or shot you want. If you miss the mulligan due to the short time constraint, you’ll have to do another 17 holes to get back there.

Bring single-hole and/or shot capability, and it would be amazing. I’d love to have the ability to practice a drive on a particular hole or practice my tee shot on a par 3. The golf score app allows you to change holes with relative ease, the R50 is missing it.

The Swing Change That Helped Xander Win Two Majors—And How You Can Copy It

As much as amateurs think golf professionals have it all figured out, they don’t. Golf pros change their swings, make adjustments and work to get better all the time. Even some of the best in the world.

Xander Schauffele won two out of four golf majors in 2024. Before that incredible year, he identified a setup flaw that caused some issues with his tee shot.

By fixing it, he was able to reduce tension, get the club on the right path and improve power and accuracy. If you think your game could benefit from that, here’s what you should know.

What was wrong with his setup?

Schauffele’s main problem off the tee was that his shoulders were too open and he had too much tension in his forearms, leading to inconsistency.

Shoulders too open

His main challenge revolved around his shoulders which tend to be open at address. The overly open position forced him to pull the club across his body. While he could sometimes get the club on the right path, this move didn’t hold up when faced with high-pressure situations.

What Is A Hybrid Golf Club?

If you are new to golf and trying to get all of the terminology and lingo down, chances are you have heard the word “hybrid.” A hybrid golf club is a conglomeration of a fairway wood and an iron. Players from professionals to high handicappers have hybrid golf clubs. Here’s a deeper look into what a hybrid golf club is, if it’s necessary and how this concept came about.

What’s a hybrid golf club?

Hybrid golf clubs are exactly what they sound like: a blend of a fairway wood and a long iron.

They combine the best features of both to provide golfers with a more versatile and easier-to-hit solution.

Unlike traditional long irons which, thanks to their lower loft, can be intimidating and unforgiving, hybrids offer a larger clubhead with a lower center of gravity. This makes it easier to launch the ball higher and land it softer.

Compared to fairway woods, hybrids are shorter and more iron-like in swing feel, giving you more control and consistency from a wider range of lies.
