Improving your golf game and lowering your stroke count takes time, practice, and a strategic approach. Here are some tips to help you lower your strokes in golf:

1. Take Lessons:

• Consider investing in golf lessons from a qualified instructor. They can help you build a solid foundation and correct any swing flaws early on.

2. Work on Your Grip:

• A proper grip is fundamental to a good golf swing. Ensure your hands are in the correct position on the club and that you're not gripping too tightly.

3. Focus on Your Stance:

• Your stance, including your posture and alignment, plays a crucial role in your swing. Work on maintaining a balanced and athletic stance.

4. Practice Your Swing Mechanics:

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 adidas MC80, the newest golf shoe from the Brand with Three Stripes. First introduced as a part of the adidas x Bogey Boys collaboration, the MC80 golf shoe looks to become a mainstay (dare I say flagship?) model in adidas’s spikeless golf shoe lineup.

Who Tried It:

Connor. Director of Soft Goods Testing and resident sneakerhead. I believe golf is better with a pair of cool shoes and comfortable joggers. My neighbors are starting to get concerned about the amount of golf shoes that show up at my door.

Need to Know

Modern Elegance

First impressions are everything. The MC80 is a far departure from the prototypical adidas golf shoe. It’s traditional yet sporty. Everything about the adidas MC80 is about as far away from the Codechaos line as you can get. Instead of a polarizing, love-or-hate-it design, the MC80 is just cool.

I’m a huge fan of the classic look, something that has been missing from the adidas golf shoe lineup. Enough about how the MC80 looks. That’s far from my favorite thing (oh, the adidas MC80 gets much better).

My first rain suit made me look more like I was Gorton Fisherman’s younger sister than a golf professional on a rainy day. 

At the time, as a woman golfer, you were lucky to even find rain gear.

Things have changed and Galvin Green is making sure that performance, fit, color and style are all parts of the best women’s golf apparel on the market. The new Galvin Green Collection for the fall has more than 30 bold styles and seven new garments.

The Details

Behind the Collection

Galvin Green wanted to create a fall line that allows women golfers to dress with ultra-modern style and class even when the temperatures start to cool. Playing golf with extra clothes on can be a bit tricky. Style and fashion are great but we don’t want to lose rotational ability or feel due to the extra clothing. 

According to Product Manager Sofia Ask Klason, “we expect the new designs to be especially popular with those golfers seeking some of the most sustainable, long-lasting garments on the market without compromising on the incredible attention to detail that we take great pride in at Galvin Green.”
