Sun Mountain H2NO C130 Waterproof Cart Golf Bag Review: Rainproof Performance with One Maddening Flaw

Golf plays a significant role in my life. I’m not exceptionally good at it, but I enjoy the social side of the game. Living in the world’s largest golfing community, with 837 holes as of this writing, means there’s no shortage of opportunities to play. Central Florida also brings plenty of rain, and rain and golf equipment are not friends. Sun Mountain’s new H2NO family of golf bags aims to keep them apart. Let’s see how the Sun Mountain H2NO C130 Waterproof Cart Golf Bag handles your gear and the elements.

Vatrer 48V Lithium Battery Upgrade Review: The Ultimate Power Boost for Your Golf Cart!

Most days of the year, I drive a golf cart to work and around town. The problem with an electric cart is the use of flooded lead-acid batteries. They are heavy, messy, and require regular maintenance; on top of that, I have always had corrosion problems. It was a no-brainer I would accept when offered a Vatrer 48V Lithium Battery conversion kit to review; I knew it would be a great upgrade to my ride once installed. Come and take the adventure with me.

City Turf Shoe from Ogio Lets You Go Golfing at a Moment’s Notice

One of the problems I used to encounter when I worked in a real office instead of from home was getting busted for sneaking out to play a round of golf. That glove hanging out of my pocket was a dead giveaway. I wish I’d known about OGIO’s new line of golf shoes back then, particularly the City Turf Shoe. I’m already a big fan of OGIO’s gear with several of their backpacks and my golf bag prominently featuring their name. I bought their golf bag because I didn’t want to associate my mediocre golf game with any particular club…

Between student specials and free golf after he got off work, I played around three or four rounds of golf a week. Playing golf is often a great method to keep your frustration and anger levels down. There are so many skills needed for a variety of situations, and most players spend their entire lives chasing the perfect round. For young players, hitting off the tee is about all they work on. You have to impress everyone with that…

Caddyshack Celebrates 30 Years as the Best Golf Movie Ever

… and also the most hated by golfers! I remember when it came out my Uncle who was an avid golfer saw it right away, as did my cousin who was visiting with family from Georgia. Two very different opinions, one from a middle-aged golfer who thought it was stupid and one from a guy a couple years older than my brother and I who thought it was hilarious. Pretty soon we saw it (remember back in those days you didn’t need to rush to the theater on opening weekend!) … and it has remained one of my all-time favorite…
