If you live in a cold climate, the freezing temperatures and snow drifts of winter can make it challenging to get outside and practice your golf swing. And as every golfer knows, if you don’t use it - you lose it. However, the long offseason doesn’t have to put your game on ice. We have some…

Bob McCoy is a golf fanatic, and he’s probably unlike any golfer you’ve ever known. Last week the 79-year old McCoy played the New and Eden courses at Hong Kong Golf Club and completed a mind-boggling odyssey that began almost 40 years ago. McCoy has played every course that’s ever been in Golf…

The gear effect: many have heard of it, but few actually understand what it is. Fewer still realize that not understanding the gear effect can hamper their efforts to improve their golf game. https://youtu.be/FdH0JQL5E-U Whether we hit a good shot or a bad one, we assume we know what happened.…

Winter is coming! But we have a grand prize to help you get past those snowy blues: three rounds of golf in northern Michigan at Forest Dunes Golf Club anytime you wish in 2019.

With enough history comes legend, and these legends of bizarre and unexplainable happenings on the golf course have a definite supernatural feel about them. There’s an eerie connection between golf and the paranormal that extends beyond disappearing shots or obscure rulings. Some accounts you can…

The colder weather is creeping in and we're keeping it out by improving your 18Birdies experience! We’ve been focusing on crushing a lot of minor bugs in this release, but also have some new improvements that you’ll benefit from! Photo and Video Gallery: Take an awesome photo or captured a great…

Single length irons (or one length irons) have become mainstream equipment news this year thanks to a spectacular breakout season by Bryson DeChambeau.
