MIZUNO RB Tour and RB Tour X
If you ’ re a player who generates plenty of clubhead speed , take note of the latest golf balls from Mizuno . The RB Tour and RB Tour X are the culmination of a three-year testing and development project . A standout feature of the new urethanecovered , three-piece balls is the “ AXIAFLOW ” dimple , which helps golfers finesse a flatter wedge flight than other tourlevel balls . A new 272-dimple pattern provides a larger and more precise outline on the ball , as well . Yet you ’ ll still achieve plenty of spin around the green . While both models feel soft at impact — the RB Tour feels slightly softer — expect plenty of durability from either one . $ 43 / dozen ,

SACKS PARENTE ’ S Drac Putter
Sacks Parente ’ s fang-shaped Drac putter ($ 400 ) is milled in America from 6000 series aluminum . Its ultra-low balance point technology helps release and square the putter head at impact , creating a better stroke with more accuracy and distance control . There are 100 grams of tungsten on the heel and toe , with weight moved forward more than on any fang-style putter to raise the moment of inertia stability . The ultralight carbon shaft and grip make the 375-gram head feel relatively heavier , so you can feel it throughout your stroke . $ 400 ,

Screw it into the butt end of the grip , download the companion app to your smartphone , sync the device and start putting . This sensor is smaller and lighter than its predecessor P2 model , so you ’ ll quickly forget it ’ s even attached to your putter .

TOUR EDGE ’ S Hot Launch SuperSpin VibRCor
Tour Edge ’ s Hot Launch SuperSpin VibRCor cavity back wedge is extremely forgiving and enhances impact feel . VibRCor is a high-grade TPU that ’ s placed in the deep undercut pocket to boost speed and dampen sound and any impact shock . But the wedge ’ s beveled leading edge will help you improve contact and shot versatility . Its cambered , rounded sole will glide more smoothly through the turf without digging into the ground . The weight pad in the club ’ s rear helps centralize extra weight behind the top center part of the clubface . This essentially expands the sweet spot up and down , so that any shot you strike higher on the face keeps its control and feel as if you flushed it . $ 90 ,
