Yep, you read that headline correctly. The new Vessel Carbon Collection stand and cart bags sell for $1,999.99 each.

I’m sure you have questions. Those questions might be distorted by incredulity or some other knee-jerk emotion but that doesn’t mean those questions shouldn’t be answered.

The first question is fairly obvious: Who the hell is going to pay $2,000 for a freaking golf bag?

More people than you’d think.

Question Two is the logical follow-up: Why the hell would someone pay $2,000 for a freaking golf bag?

Five weeks from now, many of you will be chowing down on pimento cheese sandwiches while walking around Amen Corner.

The Masters is so close we can taste it!

After we published this one-day Masters patron itinerary last year, I received dozens of emails with questions.

The most popular question was about lodging.

Assuming you won the lottery for tickets or are getting on the grounds for the tournament another way, the hardest part is over.

On the heels of the Limited Edition Min Woo Lee Let Him Cook Chrome Soft X, Callaway has released another Limited Edition offering. This time it’s the Chrome Tour St. Paddy’s Day collection.

The collection includes 1 sleeve each of four St. Patrick’s Day patterns which Callaway says “combine Tour-level precision with a touch of Irish Charm”.

Ok.

To celebrate the holiday, Callaway has rolled out a veritable greatest hits of St. Patrick’s Day symbolism including:

The Irish FlagA pint of GuinessA shamrock (obvi)A Leprechaun’s hat

While it seems unlikely the St. Paddy’s Day Chrome Tour will transform your game, it’s yet another way to personalize your gear, and I suppose, maybe a have a little bit more fun on the golf course.

Just when you thought the golf industry couldn’t possibly cram more AI into your favorite pastime, Uneekor steps onto the green with yet another digital golf assistant.

My first thought? “Great, another AI tool to tell me what I already know—I’m terrible at golf.”

But before you roll your eyes faster than a putt on Augusta’s 12th green, let’s take a swing at understanding what Uneekor is actually bringing to the tee with their new GameDay software and AI Trainer.

Another AI golf coach? Really?

The golf tech landscape is more crowded than a big-city muni course on Saturday morning.

But Uneekor’s AI Trainer claims to be different. Unlike other AI swing analyzers that simply point out that your swing resembles a drunk octopus fighting a garden hose, this one correlates eight key swing checkpoints with club and ball data. It’s like having a coach who not only tells you that you suck but precisely how you suck and, most importantly, why you suck.

Sometimes, it feels like investing more money into your game or equipment is the only way to get better at golf. Money helps but there are ways to get better without breaking the bank. If you have $100 to invest in your golf game right now, here are some of the best ways.

Start tracking your game

Everybody thinks they know the issues in their golf game. When you start tracking data, you learn a lot about the real problems. Something like the Shot Scope Connex is less than $100 and will help you track every shot.

You’ll have over 100 stats, including Strokes Gained, that can provide insight into how to best utilize your range time.

There are apps that allow you to track Strokes Gained manually but this can disrupt your routine on the course. Tracking golf data doesn’t need to be expensive.

Book a lesson or clinic

While this may seem obvious, amateur players underutilize it. Lessons, even just a 30-minute session, can help you get your swing on the right track and give you some direction. Some golf courses also offer clinics that are cheaper than lessons but you can pull good information from these if the student-teacher ratio isn’t too high.

I’ve seen a lot of YouTube instructional content and, for the most part, it’s pretty helpful. This particular video is one from Eric Cogorno Golf. He is one of the most well-known golf instructors on YouTube and his content is very good. He breaks down difficult concepts and usually gives helpful drills to work on.

This “thin shot” fix is one of my favorites but the video is 17 minutes long. I’m not sure it needs that much of your time. Here’s the shortcut and a few tips to help make this more successful for you.

Where to see the drill?

In the video, Cogorno starts talking about the drill around the 2:50 mark. However, to see a demonstration of it, you’ll have to go to 5:47. If you read through the tips and step-by-step below, viewing the 5:47 mark is enough to get this drill down and try it for yourself.

How to do the drill

This is simple and effective and all you need is a golf ball to be able to complete it. That means you can easily practice this movement in your living room without ever hitting a shot.

Step 1: Flare your trail foot (10-30 degrees)

Most golfers set up with their trail foot relatively square. You’ll want to adjust your trail foot for this drill so it’s angled outward. This helps to open the trail hip and make it easier to rotate. This flaring of the trail foot also gives you a little more room to get the club on the right plane on the downswing.
