If you’re looking to add some yards to your drive this golf season, or impress your new father-in-law with a kick-ass present this coming Father’s Day – check out this driver from Callaway. The Callaway RAZR Fit Tour Authentic Driver features OptiFit technology allowing you to adjust the face angle and center of gravity of the club. The crown of the driver contains over 7 million turbostratic carbon fibers making it stronger and ligther than titanium. It even has aerodynamic contours so there is less air resistance and drag on your downswing, making it one hell of an advanced golf club. Still not sure if it’s enough to keep me out of the woods though.

This weekend I was lucky enough to hit the slopes in Vermont with some friends. With my new Turtle Fur Ski hat, my head stayed warm despite strong winds and heavy snowfall during one of days on the mountain. Made with handcrafted wool and lined with “Turtle Fur,” the hat proved to be comfortable and warm. Turtle Fur makes varying styles of ski hats, but I prefer the earflap style when skiing.

There aren’t too many activities better for strength training than rock climbing. That being said, climbing a mountain may not always be convenient – especially if you live in the city. Yet, you can still get all the upper-body benefits from a climbing training board. This board mounts to your wall or doorway (make sure you find the studs or it’s going to be a short climb) and features an array of grips and holds. Whether you’re training for actual climbing or just trying to add to your workout routine, you’re destined to see good results if you use one of these bad boys.
Lawn games always make for a great time, so we’re always excited when we discover more of them. Rollors is a new wooden lawn game and has already been a huge hit. Played by hand rolling small wood disks towards a color-coded goal, Rollors combines the elements of bocce, horseshoes, and bowling into one great outdoor game. Equally as impressive, the creator of the game came up with the concept for the game while serving our country overseas in Iraq and Afghanistan. The set includes 6 “Rollors,” 2 goals, and 2 measuring devices for a retail price of under $30.
It’s amazing how something as simple as a Frisbee can be so fun (especially for dogs). If Ultimate Frisbee sounds too much like the hippie olympics to you, give Frisbee Golf a try. It’s the same concept as regular golf, except you need to get a Frisbee into the chained goal, rather than a ball in a hole. Best of all, there’s no heavy bag of clubs to schlep around – so you never have to put your beer down! This galvanized steel goal comes with three discs (Frisbees): a “putter,” approach, and long range disc.
