Show Your School Spirit with TaylorMade’s Updated Collegiate Collection

I know some of you are absolutely crazy about college sports. I also know that some of you just like to show off your alma mater because otherwise, nobody would believe you actually went to college (they still don’t believe you graduated).

So anyway, just in time for March Madness (roughly) TaylorMade has expanded its Collegiate Collection to include 87 colleges and universities.

The updated collection includes driver covers, putter covers (both mallets and blades), TP5/TP5x golf balls, and oddly, wedges.

While 87 different schools makes for an impressive offering, it comes with a caveat. Not every school in the collection is available with every product.

The TM collegiate series now includes 87 colleges and universities.

Putting Tips for Golfers

Putting is one of the most important aspects of golf, and improving your skills on the greens can lower your scores significantly. Here are some essential tips to help you become a better putter:

1. Focus on Your Setup

  • Proper Stance: Your feet should be shoulder-width apart, with your knees slightly flexed. Your weight should be evenly distributed.
  • Ball Position: Position the ball slightly forward of center in your stance, around the middle of your feet. This helps ensure a clean, solid strike.
  • Grip: Use a relaxed grip. Avoid gripping the putter too tightly, as tension can affect your stroke. Experiment with different grip styles, such as the traditional grip, cross-handed grip, or claw grip, to find the one that feels most comfortable.

2. Align Your Eyes Properly

  • Eyes Over the Ball: When you're standing over the ball, make sure your eyes are directly over or just inside the line of the putt. This alignment will help you see the break and make more accurate strokes.

3. Maintain a Smooth Stroke

  • Pendulum Motion: Use a pendulum-like swing with your shoulders, keeping your arms and hands steady throughout the stroke.
  • Back and Through: Focus on making a smooth, even stroke both back and through, avoiding jerky or rushed movements. The key is consistency.

4. Read the Green

  • Observe the Slope: Look at the overall slope of the green, paying attention to subtle breaks that can affect the ball's path. Walk around the hole to get a better feel for the contours.
  • Use Your Feet: Feel the slope by standing behind the ball and paying attention to how your feet feel on the green. This can give you a better sense of the uphill or downhill breaks.

5. Practice Distance Control

  • Focus on Speed: Putting is as much about controlling distance as it is about accuracy. Practice making putts with different amounts of speed, focusing on hitting the ball just past the hole if you miss.
  • Use Short Putt Drills: Work on short-range putts, as they are critical for consistency. Start with putts under five feet, then gradually increase the distance as you become more comfortable.

6. Trust Your Putt

  • Commit to Your Line: Once you’ve read the putt, commit to your line and stroke. Second-guessing can cause mistakes. Trust your practice and your ability to make the putt.
  • Stay Confident: Confidence is key. Approach each putt with a positive mindset, believing that you can make it.

7. Practice Regularly

  • Focus on Technique: Consistent practice is the only way to improve your putting. Spend time on the practice green working on both short and long putts.
  • Use Drills: Try putting drills like the "clock drill" or "gate drill" to improve your accuracy, alignment, and stroke consistency.

By incorporating these putting tips into your game, you’ll gain better control over your short game and reduce the number of strokes taken on the green.

Top 20 Most Comfortable Spikeless Golf Shoes

What’s the point of wearing a spikeless golf shoe if it’s uncomfortable? The thing about comfort is that you have to consider not just how the shoe fits but also how it breaks in and whether it’s worthy of walking 36 holes in. At the end of a round, you should be ready for another round, not ready to rip your shoes off. Skechers and PAYNTR are the best when it comes to comfort in 2025. When you look at this list for the best spikeless golf shoes for comfort, it won’t take long to see the way these brands dominate.

Comfort is your top priority:

While up against some stiff competition from the likes of PAYNTR, the Skechers Go Golf Elite 6 is the most comfortable golf shoe of 2025.

The Tuning Fork: Why PING Created The Ballnamic Fitting Tool

When PING launched Ballnamic, it wasn’t long before my phone started buzzing. Some inside the golf ball world were puzzled and perhaps slightly alarmed.

“What is PING doing?”

That’s a helluva question.

Why would a company without a ball in its product lineup invest in creating a comprehensive ball fitting system? Was this a prelude to PING entering the golf ball market or something else entirely?

It’s safe to say that in the early days of Ballnamic, PING made a decent amount of money from the ball manufacturers. Everyone wanted to see what the algorithm would recommend and I will never not laugh thinking about the rep from a leading ball company who dejectedly told me Ballnamic had recommended a Cut Golf ball.

The Top 10 Holes-In-One Recorded On YouTube

Every golfer chases an ace.

Some of us have found one or two. A few of you have made a handful of them and we’re all insanely jealous. Can you spare a couple for those of us who have none?

There is something intoxicating about a hole-in-one. Skill is involved but so is luck. It’s the perfect shot in a game where perfection is rarely realized.

Most holes-in-one are told as stories in the clubhouse (where golf has a weird tradition of peer-pressuring the ace-maker into paying for everyone’s drinks). The rare few are captured on video for all of us to see.

In this article, I’m going to list the 10 best aces I’ve seen on YouTube golf. This excludes professional golf because those men and women are supposed to be good and most of them have many holes-in-one already.
