The Best Golf Gear to Improve Your Game, From Head to Toe

Golf has always been a numbers game, but now we want more of them. Here are a few tools I’ve tried this year that give you what you need most, whether it’s a break for your back, a shock to the wrist, a clear view for your eyes or simply a boost in your step.

DeWiz golf swing modifier
If you’ve ever wondered what a dog feels when it runs through an invisible fence, try on the deWiz golf swing modifier.
