Turtleson Fall Collection
When the Turtleson Fall 2026 apparel pieces arrived on my doorstep, the thermometer was threatening to hit triple digits. But as I unpackaged each item, my mind drifted to cooler temps and fresh, crisp air. I’m fortunate to be able to play golf year round, and Turtleson nailed the needs of layering for the fall and winter months – both in terms of temperature regulation and style. I appreciate the fall appropriate deep colors of the Beckett Stripe Polo that serves as the base layer in the photo above. The Issac Quarter Zip not only looks fantastic, the cotton rich material offers nice breathability. The Aidan Comfort Shell is aptly named – a lightweight, stretchy, water-resistant jacket that’s handy for when conditions change.
If you’re a fan of hoodies, Turtleson has something special for you. Let’s start with the shadow heather Kephart Cashmere Hoodie on the left – it’s simply wonderful. Exceptionally soft and amazingly lightweight, the Kephart looks and feels luxurious. The Bellfield Hoodie is also soft and lightweight, constructed with a cotton blend fabric that offers warmth without bulk. Subtle texture offers visual interest on the outside, while a smooth interior feels heavenly against your skin. In addition to comfort on the golf course, both the Kephart and Bellfield hoodies are going to be great year round travel companions for freezing airplanes. -Meeks

Wild Goat
Playing your best golf requires a delicate mental and physical balance: you need to be sharp and focused, but you can’t be jittery and overstimulated. What’s more, you need to maintain that edge for four hours (or more). Wild Goat gummies are the best supplement I’ve found for striking that balance.
Wild Goat uses a blend of supplements along with a mild dose of caffeine. For me, the caffeine dosing is perfect: it’s noticeable, I feel sharper, but I’m not vibrating. What’s more, it lasts throughout the round. I’ve gotten my best results from splitting the serving in two: half on the first tee, half on the tenth. When I do this, I avoid the lapses in focus that can lead to those round-ruining shots.
The Citrus Cooler flavor is a winner, too. These aren’t supplements that will have you grimacing as you choke them down – you’ll pop them like candy. If you want to feel a sustained, calm focus – on or off the course – give Wild Goat a try.

ProtoConcept RR Wedge
ProtoConcept is one of those brands that I’ve been aware of for a while but has never made it into my hands until now. Their RR Wedge made a huge impression the moment I unwrapped it. The styling of the back – the mix of finishes, the tasteful branding, and the unusual geometry – is stunning. I spend a long time staring at it every time that I take it out of the bag.
In the playing position, it’s a compact, Tour-style wedge, no doubt built for their impressive stable of professional player. I particularly like the straight-but-not-boxy leading edge.
Putting this wedge in play, I noticed the controlled launch and consistently high spin. The feel on center is very sweet, but the RR Wedge isn’t afraid to firm up when you miss the sweet spot. Though the feel is demanding, there’s more forgiveness here than I would expect, given the size.
The ProtoConcept RR Wedge has three sole options: Shallow, Neutral, and Aggressive. I tested the Neutral sole and found it to be exactly as advertised, offering a noticeable resistance to digging without compromising versatility and shotmaking. At $339 each, these wedges are far from cheap, but it’s easy to see why they’re chosen by so many high level players.

Yatta Golf Apparel
Yatta Golf prides itself on being an industry leader in bold golf apparel showcasing unique designs, bright colors, and modern styling, but also offers more traditional styles for golfers preferring a more classic look. I tested the Blue Enjoy Life Performance T-Shirt, The White Polo, and The White Hoodie. All three pieces share a soft technical feel, and a heavier, more substantial construction than most performance apparel.
My favorite of the three pieces (although I’m biased, because it’s the one that was complimented at the 19th hole) is The White Hoodie. Its soft, substantial, and heavy feeling maintains body temperature well during summer twilight rounds. The sharp white tone is so bright it almost takes on a blue hue and the black and white sublimated graphic inside the hood adds a nice design touch. The only drawback is the hood string slips out too easily unless the ends are knotted.
No doubt, Yatta Golf shows it can deliver comfort, quality, and style in both bold designs and traditional styles. -John

Lunar Golf Locked In All-Weather Golf Glove
During the sweltering summer months in the Lowcountry of South Carolina, it’s not uncommon for me to go through several golf gloves in a round, so when Lunar Golf reached out regarding their all-weather gloves, I jumped at the opportunity to give them a try.
As you can see on the Velcro flaps of the Locked In All-Weather gloves, the Lunar Golf logo is prominent. The material on the non-palm side is a very breathable, mesh like fabric.
On the business side, the material is what I’d describe as suede-like – and very soft to the touch. On my hand and gripping a club, the material gave me an odd sensation. The feel isn’t bad, but noticeable, and similar to other synthetic rain gloves I’ve worn. As for the actual gription, I found it very good. Even sweat soaked, the glove maintained a solid connection with the club grip. The glove also performed well during an unexpected downpour and made me realize I need to get one for my right hand.
It may be a simple thing, but I like that the Lunar Golf Locked In All-Weather glove is white. Rain gloves from other companies may offer similar gription, but they all come in black. For me, summer golf requires a crisp white glove. -Meeks

ParWalker – The Dangler
The ParWalker Dangler is one of those golf products that makes you say, “I can’t believe this actually works.” If you regularly walk and carry your golf bag, you know the struggle of figuring out where to put your drink. Setting it in the grass risks spilling it, and juggling a drink while carrying your bag gets old quickly. My friends and I have even joked that we end up drinking faster than we’d like, just to avoid the hassle.
The Dangler offers a clever solution. Clip it to your golf bag, place your drink in the holder, and let the gyroscopic design do its thing. As you walk, the holder moves independently of your bag, keeping your drink from spilling. It looks like magic, but it’s really just engineering and physics.
There is a slight learning curve, particularly when taking your drink in and out of the holder. It’s not quite as effortless as a traditional cupholder, and I wouldn’t call it an essential for every round. However, after testing it, I’ve been genuinely impressed by how well it works. At $39.99, the Dangler is more fun-to-have than a necessity, but it’s also one of the coolest golf gadgets I’ve tested recently. It’s practical and is absolutely going on my shortlist of gifts for friends who golf (and walk a lot). -Ramsey
