Here, LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman provides his thoughts on where the Saudi-backed tour is going and the prospect of the on-going feud with the PGA Tour and the DP World Tour ever being resolved It probably wasn’t all that surprising to you that the LIV Golf Adelaide event was…
With the four men’s major tournaments now done and dusted, you could be forgiven for thinking golf fans have nothing to look forward to over the next few months.

MacGregor persimmon woods are amongst the most sought-after persimmon woods in the world of golf today. Most would argue that 1949 saw the beginning of the golden age of oil-hardened, old-growth, persimmon woods. Whilst 1949 ushered in the infamous LFF model, as early as 1941, Jumbo models were available with only the most astute collector being able to distinguish between the models from the early 1940s and late 1940s.

The 1951 to 1954 MT Tourney Models are perhaps the most desirable with the 1953 and 1954 M09 six-screw model being the most sought after. We finish off with the long-forgotten George Bayer model line. We hope this helps you identify your clubs. If you have any to…
The humble Sunday bag is enjoying a renaissance. Once a bit of kit you evolved from, could it be where more of us need to end up?

Golf is difficult and for most, the promise of straighter shots, longer drives, and low scores are worth taking a punt on. What though, is the driver for it all? When it is all boiled down is it not simply…
A half set of golf clubs is also known as a beginner set. For many of us, our first set of golf clubs was a half set consisting of a driver, 3, 5, 7, and 9 iron, and a putter. 6 clubs were all we needed and then we realised we could carry 8 more. The age-old question is: should you just because you can? Building a Half Set The good news is you probably have everything you need to get your first half set sorted. It’s pretty simple really, just get rid of some clubs. Ditch the Clubs You…
