Golf can be a fun game. It can be a relaxing game as well as a game of sport and competition. Often you will see golfers out on the green placing bets on each others shots and how far they can either drive the ball or how quickly they can sink it in the hole. However having skill in the game of Golf is only part of the battle. There are other things to worry about, such as golf accessories. Below we are going to examine the top accessories for golfers.
The first golf accessory is the most underrated accessory, the golf bag. The golf bag is mostly forgotten about and ignored but what people do not realize is this is like the backpack you took to school every day. The importance of this is not to just carry your golf clubs but to also carry all the other accessories we are going to cover.
The second top golf accessory is the golf caddy. This is a useful accessory as it allows you to pull your golf bag on two wheels. This can be incredibly handy when it comes to carting your golf bag around. The third most useful golf accessory is the golf tee. Probably of the most overlooked top accessories for golfers, the golf tee is what you set your golf ball on before you tee off on the course. You use one at the beginning of every hole. These can also be stored safely in your golf bag.
Another top accessory is a towel; always have a towel with you when you are on the green. You can wipe your hands of sweat or your brow. Golf can be a complex sport and requires strenuous patience and practice. A towel makes all the difference when you have sweat on your brow. Another top accessory is more of a courtesy than a requirement.
The divot tool is another necessity as most golf courses require you to replace your divots. A divot is when you swing and miss the ball, thus tearing up the dirt and the grass. It is common parlance to replace your divots and this tool makes that all the more easily to accomplish.
Finally, another top accessory is golf gloves. Golf gloves can help you improve your grip on the golf club and even help with your follow through swing. These may not be all the top accessories for golfers but these can sure get you started.

Sneak Peak - Titleist 913 Driver
It really is no surprise amongst the golfing world that Titleist had a new driver and word soon spread that is was going to be called the Tileist 913.
The options look like the same as the 910 as they will have a D2 and a D3 version and the image shows a driver that is an 8.5 degres with the name of Rors on it so we can expect to see this in the bag of Rory Mcllroy very soon.
The graphics on the driver go with the traditional colours that we asociate with Titleist and the adjustability looks very much the same as the 910 which will please a lot of the players that have already purchased an upgraded shaft for a 910 (as it hopefully wil fit in the 913.
We have had no news on a fairways or hybrid range but we are sure they will follow in a similar style.
We have not been given any indicators of a release date however I would expect to see this coming to market on a limited scale in October.

Odyssey Putters
Odyssey is a company, which offers extensive lines of putters. One of their renowned product lines is the Odyssey Black Series, consisting of three models that have a tungsten flange at the back of the putter head. This adds weight to the rear of the head creating a low centre of gravity that is deep in the club face. This feature makes it easier for the golfer to lift the ball slightly on impact and then roll it swiftly. The upward angle hit on the putt initially helps in getting the ball rolling as the ball is faintly nestled down in the grass of the putting green.In conjunction with the centre of gravity, works the loft of the putter face. The different loft angles for each of the three putters called as Black Series Number 1, 2, and 3, give the quickest roll possible for a given centre of gravity location in each putter head. The theory behind this being that the sooner the ball stop skidding and starts rolling after the impact, the more accurate the putt becomes. In addition, the weighted flange creates a higher moment of inertia. These putters are one of the best in the kind and cost $249 each.
The putter heads are made from 1025 carbon steel and with a mix-milled face design, indicating the proper impact area. Also, a urethane-damping layer between the carbon steel head and the flange dampens the vibrations produced.
Another Odyssey product line is the White Steel. It consists of eight putters grouped into the core and the progressive models. The Core Models have traditional blade and mallet putter designs and cost $119 each. Whereas, the Progressive Models incorporate modern technology aiding weight distribution and alignment. The defining feature of this line is the putter face with two inserts. First one is the light urethane insert. It is large and takes a considerable amount of the putter face. The lightness of the material gives the putter a softer feel at the impact, simultaneously shifting the centre of gravity of the head backwards and improving the moment of inertia. This in turn improves the accuracy. The second insert is of milled stainless steel - a machine milled and consistent flat surface improving the roll of the ball.
The third line is the Dual Force Odyssey Golf Putters. The Dual Force 2 is an improved version of the classic putter, with better design. The moment of inertia of these putters has been increased and the line is made up of three putters having one shaft offset cost of $89 each.
