It’s always a wonderful day when the new golf shoes arrive, and the golf courses have not opened yet, or have just opened for the season.

There is plenty of time to break them in on the spring turf, so there is no blisters on your feet, by the time the real golf season hits full swing.

Did you know that Foot Joy the #1 shoe in golf, has created even more new lines that will make walking around even more enjoyable on and off the golf course.

Hyperflex, Contour and DNA are all shoes that take comfort, and reduction in wear and tear to a new level. Better support and dry feet are among the features that these Foot Joy shoes bring to the table. You can put them on and wear them to the level of comfort by tightening up the laces, and or snuging up via the Boa Lacing System.

 (L) The FootJoy Contour-FIT, Synthetic Saddle and Full Grain Leather Vamp. (R) The FootJoy Versa Luxe, spikeless, with a Suede Heel Pocket, and leather design.

Foot Joy has now created shoes that all golfers of any size and age can enjoy. Want that older classic leather style and design, it’s there for you. If your needs are modern with color, comfort and a total athletic show design, Foot Joy has that as well. But what Foot Joy is now creating has gone beyond just shoes.

Foot Joy,more than just a shoe company, for even more comfort, slip on Foot Joy socks and then slip your feet into Foot Joy shoes.

Do you need socks to go with those new Foot Joy shoes?

Well you have come to the right place, because Foot Joy does make socks that fit well with their shoes.

Now you can enjoy the classic fit in a TechSof Tour sock, that gives golfers maximum cushion and comfort, support and moisture control.

If your looking for more in foot support, the FJ Tour Compression Sock not only keeps your foot dry, it’s targeted compression with better arch support in key stress areas, helps circulation and reduces swelling in your feet.

The Chicago Golf Show was held from Feb. 24-26 in Rosemont at the Donald Stephens Convention Center.

If you attended, did you take time to get your picture taken with the NCAA Championship Trophy. Did you hold up a sign with the logo’s of your favorite schools.

If you look left at the picture you can see what one local golf media guy, is hoping for in terms of the national championship match.

During the golf show both Tim Raines, a former member of the Chicago White Sox, entering the Hall of Fame this sumer, and Ryne Sandberg already a Hall of Famer and former member of the World Champion Chicago Cubs, came out on the weekend to meet the golfers.

 Did you get your picture with the championship trophies, or (R) with Erin Hills Golf Ambassador and golf professional Rich Tock. Erin Hills will host the 2017 U.S. Open this June, visit the USGA website and get your tickets now.

   Have you played Forest Dunes Golf Club in Roscommon Michigan yet, or it’s second and or third course, the Reversable Course called “The Loop” by Tom Doak. Play it clockwise as the Black Course, and Counter-Clockwise as the Red Course. Much like they did at the PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando, Callaway Golf continues to be on the move. The new Big Bertha Epic Driver continues to open eyes for golfers of both sexes and with golfers of all playing abilities. The numbers of golfers playing the Epic Driver on various professional tours continues to grow. In fact many professional golfers not even under contract to Callaway or with Callaway than can play any driver they want, have started to hit the Epic. The Great Big Bertha Epic-Driver, play what Phil plays, put an Epic with jailbreak technology in your bag. Breakout with Epic.

Wilson’s new Triton Driver, the winner of Driver vs Driver.

Lead by Brad Syslo the Grassroots manager at Wilson Golf, the Wilson Triton Driver was having it’s day at the golf show.

It was nice to see how many people were stopping to hit the Triton. The Triton for those of you who have been “kind of” keeping track, is now fully USGA street and golf course legal.

Kevin Streelman for one, is now playing the club on the PGA Tour.

To all of the destination properties from surrounding states and downsouth, we encourage everyone to go visit, and get a variety of what golf courses around the county can be. “Variety-the spice of life.”

What made the PGA Merchandise Show last month, was the arrival of some new drivers.

Callaway won the battle by producing the new Epic Driver. Complete with what’s called “jail break” technology the new Epic Driver is one that could find the top of your golf bag.

The Great Big Bertha-Epic and it’s new technology comes from research that wasn’t originally intended for the new driver, it came a the results of something else that Callaway was working on. Give the folks at Callaway credit for making a real something, out of what could have been nothing.

    The Callaway Great Big Bertha Epic Driver, shines off it’s new Jail Break technology.

Click here to hear our interview with Callaway’s Dave Neville, on the new Callaway Great Big Bertha Driver-Epic. Blast through the bars.

Big Bertha Epic benefits from the Speed Step technology, which goes back to the aerodynamic products Callaway created in partnership with Boeing. The new big bertha creates better swing speed for further distance and better accuracy.

EDITORS NOTE *** The Gog Blog has held but not hit the new Epic driver yet, and will have more to say once we do.

THE GOG BLOG by RORY SPEARS, Editor and Director of Content. Follow Rory to Trump Doral and on Facebook, Linkedin and Twitter @GogBlogGuy pounding a Titleist Pro V1X on the 18th hole of the Blue Monster.

The #1 ball in golf just got better, as Titleist continues to upgrade the famed Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf ball.

Titleist now says that the new Pro V’s are the best performing golf ball that have ever been stamped with the script Titleist name.

Titleist’s selling point is that the Pro V’s use the most sophisticated technology during the engineering process, and that this provides quallity consistency unmatched by and other ball on the market.

The Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf ball.

As a result, week after week on all the of the professionals tours and the major amateur events in golf, Titleist is the most played ball, by the players who need a top performing golf ball in competition.

Recent break-throughs in golf ball technology, have allowed Titleist to improve the Pro V’s core, and it’s aerodynamic design and dimple pattern.

The new Titleist Pro V1x and it’s core, a change to the ball in 2017.

The new core is a reengineered Next Generation 2.0 ZG Process Core that delivers more distance, on shots with lower long game spin, and a faster ball speed.

The new dimple pattern is a tiled 352 tetrarderal dimple design pattern that creates a penetrating trajectory and provides a more consistent ball flight.

Click here to hear the interview with Frederick Waddell, Sr. Manager of Titleist Golf Ball Product Management.

While both Pro-V models are designed to deliver distance and short game requirements, golfers will feel a difference in flight, feel and spin. Pro V1 will project lower with a penatrating tradjectory and soft feel, the Pro V1x flies higher off the club face, with a firmer feel and an increased spin on iron shots.

Titleist is on the move up again, with the new edition Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf balls.

“Everytime we set out to develope a new Pro V1 or Pro V1x golf balls, our challenge is to set an even higher benchmark for golf ball performance,” said Michael Mahoney, Vice President Titleist Golf Ball Marketing. “We are constantly in the field talking to golfers of all skill levels about what can do to help them shoot lower scores. At the same time, the Titleist Golf Ball R&D and Operations teams are working together to develope new golf ball technologies that deliver the performance golfer may not yet realize they need. It’s because of this ownership and commitment at every step of theprocess that we’re able to deliver meaningful performance improvements and make the best golf balls in the game even better.”

Titleist staff player Jordan Spieth had this to say regarding the new Pro V1 golfball.

“I put the new Pro V1x in play in Australia and in the first week we won. What I noticed right away, was the improved ball flight. It held it’s line in the crosswinds better.”

Titlest staff player Adam Scott called the Pro V1,” a ball I’m hitting longer than ever before, and it has the feel of the ball I grew up playing, a balata golf ball. The new Pro V1 is incredibly soft.”

For more information on the new Titleist Pro V1 and Pro V1x golf balls, please visit Titleist.com. or contact a local Titleist staff club professional.

IN’S AND OUT’S..are you still inside or are you outside, during our little heat wave here in town.

I would have run outside to play the last few days, if not for the several stories I am writing for the CDGA Magazine and Chicagoland Golf April editions.

Plus I admit that I did play 12 rounds while off to the PGA Show in Orlando, and during the trip down and back. So not getting out this past weekend was not the end of the world. Plus it seemed like everyone else was out and the courses that were open were booked solid, so it would not be quick to get around. Great Job ! to the courses that did open, and I found out today more that did open on the weekend or did today. If your didn’t open for any reason, including wear and tear and the wish to be in mint condition when you do open, I can respect that as well.

One local pro told me a few years ago, that any money he made off the golf course before April 1, or after October 31st was like found money. It allowed for improvements and to reinforce other area’s of the budget. I hope the open golf courses will take the extra dollars and put in back into their product. The course, the range, the clubhouse or even the maintanence building, the caddy shack or the halfway house. Show the customers and the golfers that you care.

Pick up your edition of the Chicago Golf Show program, presented by Chicagoland Golf.

THE CHICAGO GOLF SHOW tee’s off this Friday at Noon at the DSCC in Rosemont, located on River Road. The show runs three days, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I hope to see you there.

On the weekend, baseball Hall of Famers Tim Raines of the White Sox and Ryne Sandberg of the Cubs will be in attendence. raines on Saturday and Sanberg on Sunday, both baseball stars are avid golfers as well.

There will be free lessons from Illinois PGA members, and plenty of booths with information on golf courses, golf products and golf destination properties. Check them all out, need new equipment, golfbags, golfshoes, you will have your selection at the show. Please visit Chicagogolfshow.com.

NEW # 1 Dustin Johnson with his win at Riviera in Los Angeles is the new World #1 golfer, passing up Jason Day. Not long ago Johnson was a guy who had reported off course issues, was trying to put his life together, and trying to stay out of the way of rules infractions. Now he is #1, how could can he be, can he win at Augusta. Is he the player to beat in 2017, Erin Hills is a course that just might set up for him.

Play the new Preserve at Oak Meadows, coming this June.

Congratulations to Ed Stevenson and the DuPage County Forest Preserve District on the name change of the Oak Meadows Golf Club, to, The Preserve at Oak Meadows.

Thomas Healy COO and Head Professional of SwingOIL shows off the product next to a figure of top endorser World #1 Jason Day.

YOU WANT TO PLAY GOLF at your best level, so why not give yourself a chance to do just that.

None of us get younger by the day so it’s important to give your body a chance to operate on the golf course at it’s peak level.

Do you get tired of running out of energy on the back nine. Do you get tired of getting the aches and pains of too many swings when your game is not at it’s best. Do you get tired of having no energy left when your 18 holes are done for the day. Do you get tired of not having energy or a sore and achy body when your in a tournament or on a golf trip and your playing for more than one day in a row. Do you get tired of just being tired.

SwingOIL currently comes in three great tasting flavors.

Right now more and more of the world top touring golf professionals are linking into a new golf energy supplement called SwingOIL.

Current top endorsers of SwingOIL include the sport of golfs top player world # 1 Jason Day. Day is not alone, he has been joined by current U.S. Sr. Open Champion Gene Sauers. Sauers is now one of the many Champions Tour players that have swung over to this new product.

The best news about SwingOIL is that it’s not an overload of sugar, you won’t feel your heart racing one minute-and they be ready to take a nap the next minute. SwingOIL is best used when taken before you tee off, or start your pre-round practice on the range. But it can be taken at the turn, or even after you play or round. There is not a better product now on the market for golfers that want to keep their body fresh for when they play more than 18 holes.

U.S. Sr. Open Champion Gene Sauers is among the many Champion Tour Players now using SwingOIL.

What makes SwingOIL so effective. It’s the 7 different ingredients that are part of every 3 FL. OZ serving of SwingOIL. (For a full list of the 7 ingredients please see SwingOIL’s website).

Currently SwingOIL (only 45 calories per serving) comes in three great tasting flavors.

Lemon-Lime (Jason Day’s Favorite flavor), Strawberry Banana, and Orange. Thomas Healy the COO of SwingOIL says that a fourth flavor could be on the way shortly, and that would be one of the most popular flavors especially with younger age groups and that is Grape.

Healy says that one of the gorwing popular things to do with SwingOIL is to freeze the packets, and then take them out on the golf course, and instead of drinking SwingOIL, is to eat it in popsicle form. A great idea on hot days.

GOLFERSONGOLF.COM Presents The Gog Blog, by Rory Spears, Editor and Director of Content, on the course in Myrtle Beach SC wearing an Antigua Golf Shirt. Follow Rory on Facebook, Linkedin and Twitter @GogBlogGuy.

These days it has become just as important to look good in style on the golf course, as it is to have a good looking scorecard.

Golfers are demanding more from the apparel they wear while playing golf, and those concerns aren’t lost on the companies that design golf apparel.

Antigua Golf one of our nations largest golf apparel makers, is working hard to keep up with a changing industry and more wants from golfers.

Pam Miller Antigua’s Vice President of Customer Service & Operations, will tell you that her company is bringing it’s “A” game to the world of golf apparel, and that golfers are liking what they see, and what they wear, when the product carries Antigua’s “A” logo on the sleeve.

Click here to hear our interview with Pam Miller VP of the Antigua Group and Antigua Sportswear and Golf Apparel.

Pam Miller shows off a comfortable long sleeve from the new 2017 line of Antigua golf and sportswear, Antigua wear is found in top resort pro shops like Pinehurst.

Golf wear in modern times is not something one just wears on the golf course, it is something that both men and women want to wear off the golf course as well.

Whether it’s just to the mall, around the clubhouse at the golf course or country club, or even to work or dinner with friends and business associates, golf style apparel needs to fit in just about everywhere.

While style is important, comfort and performance is something else that golfers are looking for in what they wear on the golf course.

Pam Miller shows off the new line of Antigua vests, with improved flexibility, but solid enough to keep golfers warm when the temperatures dip or the wind picks up on the golf course.

Long before Antigua products reach your local pro shop or golf retail store, they are tested not only in-house at Antigua’s Peoria Arizona facilities, but with professional tour players who need the best in sportswear, so they can perform at the highest while competing in tournaments, and trying to make a living while doing so.

Miller is quick to admit the feedback that Antigua receives from professional tour players is taken into consideration as Antgiua makes it’s products, and constantly tries to improve them.

YOU WANT COLOR, ANTIGUA HAS COLOR, Pam Miller shows off a new for 2017 short sleeve, for those who want something a little more colorful.

New materials have to work on the golf course for changing conditions, they need to keep golfers dry when the rain starts.

They need to breathe when hot and sticky temperatures arrive, no sweaty golfer wants to be stuck to their golf shirt.

Flexibility is another condition that golfers require. There is nothing worse than when you want to grip it and rip it with the new driver in your golf bag, and you can’t let loose because you have restrictive clothing. When that stray shot lands in the bunker, and your greenside blast throws sand everywhere, including onto your shirt. You want something that the new white tour sand does not stick to, or brushes off easily from.

All of the above are factors that the golf apparel and sportswear industry are working to improve in, and Antigua remains among the leaders in doing just that. So when your looking for that next shirt or vest, that works on and off golf course, think Antigua Apparel, and bring your “A-Wear & A-Game” to the course everyday.
