Stay cool

$10 • www.worldwidegolfshops.com

The Arizona Golf Association member survey for March requested ways to stay cool in the Arizona summer. Perhaps not surprising, many of you travel to Northern Arizona or California to beat the heat and continue to play golf. Others who stay behind and suffer with the rest of us mentioned “cool towels” as a way to keep refreshed. The ProActive Sports Sub-Zero 2.0 Cooling Towel could be just the solution as temperatures climb. Active cooling technology immediately brings down the heat up to 15 degrees. The SubZero 2.0 measures 40 x 12 inches and can be used as a neck wrap, bandana, under your hat, on your forehead, or any other way you see fit. Available at Van’s Golf Shops.

New PINGs

Sets range from $750 to $1,100 • www.PING.com

Local golf club manufacturer PING reshapes game-improvement technology for an even better iron experience with its all-new G410 irons. Players of all levels will appreciate less offset and a shorter blade length that maintains MOI to create one of the most forgiving irons on the market. To generate power, face hinging and a larger flexing zone increase ball speeds for more distance and higher peak trajectories so you’re able to hit and hold more greens. Feel and sound are improved with a co-molded cavity badge that damps vibrations. Available in steel and graphite shafts.
