Improve golf knowledge and game online
by Meghan Jones
Golfing season has finally arrived. For you die-hards it’s been here for awhile, but for those of us who enjoy golfing with sunshine and above 60 degree weather, the time has come.
I’ve really come to enjoy golf, and the more I play the more I improve. But what I really like is that it’s the one sport where you don’t have to rely on anyone else to play. It’s really a catch-22, because although you have the freedom to play your way, you also are your own worst critic.
But regardless, golf is one of those sports you can have for the rest of your life.
So where do you find information about golf? I’m talking about honest opinions about courses, drivers, irons, bags and shoes, just to name a few.
I am an amateur when it comes to understanding things like what brands are quality, whether I’d really benefit from hybrid irons, and how to tell if something is a “good deal.”
BombSquadGolf.com (BSG) has the answer. This Web site is a haven for golfers who want to know everything there is to know about golf equipment. I liken BSG to a social network heaven for golfers.
“Whether you prefer off the rack retail products or rare, tour issued and prototype clubs direct from the PGA Tour, BSG will cater to your every need,” says their Web site.
On this Web site you can browse interactive forums that have all the information you could want or need. Many of the products you read about in their forums are available for purchase directly through their Web site.
They feature reviews on drivers, irons, wedges, balls, bags, shoes, shafts and courses. Their discussion boards and forums relate to tour issued clubs, retail equipment, general golf, swing fix, club makers, PGA tour, and off topic discussions as well.
They also have a thread designed for buying, selling and trading anything, typically related to golf.
A fun aspect of the Web site is called “What’s In the Bag,” where members post pictures and information on what they have in their bag and what they are playing.
There are photo galleries, an option to message different users, and for a fee an “insider” membership is available, which gets you the ability to demo new prototype equipment, have access to an insider-only forum and get exclusive price breaks on equipment.
So sign up for BSG today and make time this summer to improve your game.
