FootJoy AQL is an ultra-lightweight golf shoe that features added stability for year-round playability.

This golf sneaker from J.Lindenberg, in fine suede red rust, combines a forward street style design with a soft outsole that provides traction, comfort and off-course versaility.

The Donnay Golf Tee might look a little boring in comparison to some of the other shoes on the market this year, but does that really matter for the budget golfer looking for a pair of strides to stroll the course on a Sunday morning? Probably not.

While there's nothing particularly admirable about the crown of the Benross RIP Speed driver, with very little alignment aid to speak of, I was pleasantly surprised when it came to the club's performance.

I think I'd just about finished crawling around in my dipper when Adams Golf released its original Tight Lies fairway wood. Today, having tested the brand-spanking new Adams Golf Tight Lies fairway wood for myself, I’m pleased to say I’ve found my own little baby.

Combining patented ECCO Natural Motion Golf Street outsole technologies, the BIOM Hybrid pairs the body’s system for absorbing impact with a non-cleated shoe bottom that provides superior durability, comfort, traction and stability on or off the golf course.

Cleveland 588 Forged RTG, standing for Raw Tour Grind, is an attractive, classic-looking club with a sole grind designed to help create crisp contact when playing with the face open.

TAYLORMADE RBZ URETHANE , as expected, features a cast urethane cover over a thin mantle layer to improve ball speed and to control spin on wedge shots.

Bridgestone e6 is the softest multilayer golf ball on the market, designed to reduce spin for straighter distance.

Bridgestone e7 has the firmest compression of all the e Series golf balls – around 75. This gives it a lower trajectory than the lower compression e5 and e6 balls .

Mizuno D201 is a versatile, all-round ball utilising Mizuno’s Cavity Cross Core to reduce driver backspin but without impacting the traction of shorter, control based shots.

Bridgestone J40 CB features premium forged 1020 carbon steel, a compact head with a higher face progression provides tour control and better feel and relief at trailing edge, leading edge, toe, and heel for improved versatility.

Building upon the success of last year’s TW’13, Nike Golf has unveiled an enhanced and modified look to the new Nike TW’14 footwear, as worn by the World No.1 himself.

With the Versa Series, Odyssey decided to use the entire head of the putter as an alignment aid rather thin lines or dots. The black and white head may take a while to get used to but once you’ve cracked it lining up putts becomes a doddle.

TaylorMade Ghost Tour DA-62 is equipped with a face insert made from a lightweight aluminium alloy. On first look, I received more of a metallic-like feel of the face than I was expecting but true, consistent roll. 

This is one of the most attractive putters on the market. From the top it looks like a classic blade, but the modifications bring this putter into 2013. The matt black finish reduces glare and makes the white alignment aid stand out as well as the white Odyssey logo on the back of the putter.

Odyssey seem to have taken inspiration from French fashion and have gone for an all-black appearance with the Odyssey Protype Black #2 putter. The company know how to make an attractive blade as they have shown with their previous blades.

The Yonex i-EZONE looks like it’s been designed by the same person who drew-up blueprints for the Odyssey Versa putters .

Individually engineering masterpieces, the MP Series putters are designed to generate a solid, soft feel and purest of rolls. Starting with a single 1025E Pure Select mild carbon steel billet - before being Grain Flow Forged into the final putter shape. The near finished head is then CNC Milled to ensure exact alignment and a flawless profile at address. A precise CNC Milling process allows the face thickness to be reduced to just 3.5mm for a pure, yet responsive feel. A consistent roll is enabled through application of a further milling to layer meticulously tour researched score-lines. In three compact, classic shapes, the MP Series Putters are finished in a glare-reducing soft satin chrome.

The Method 001 is a fantastic looking putter from a brand who are all too aware of the importance of appearance. It has the look of a traditional blade but has more rounded edges when compared to other leading blades which gives it a boxier look.

Mizuno MP-R12 wedge takes on more specialist wedge look, with its C-Grind sole allowing great short range versatility. With its generous, rounded teardrop profile - designed as a compliment to the former T11 - the R12 is a throwback to Mizuno's traditional wedge models.
