Published

Nov 26, 2021

It’s that time of year again, GolfWRX members, the moment we start filling our wish lists with the golf gear we want this holiday season.

The GolfWRX Holiday Gift Guide was created to ensure that our readers give (and hopefully receive) the very best golf gifts on the planet. These gift ideas will suit any budget, and each item was hand-picked by our staff.

In an effort to provide more value and tailored recommendations, we’re presenting our guide as a series this year, targeting “the purist,” “the gearhead,” “the value seeker,” “the golfer looking to improve,” “the clothes horse,” and “the big spender.”

You know the golfer looking to get better by his/her closet full of every infomercial training aid and a pursuit of forgiveness that would put the most penitent sinner to shame.

Here are our best recommendations for “the clothes horse” in your life.

Jordan ADG 3 – $140

Taking the iconic style of the Jordan 4 and incorporating that with the performance levels of a golf shoe, Nike has created the Jordan ADG 3. A sneakerhead’s dream for golfers, the shoe comes in three different color schemes and features Zoom Air as well as the classic Jordan wing-shaped upper eyelets that are designed to cushion and support your feet on and off the course.

G-T PrimeGreen Cold.Rdy Hoodie – $90

Hoodies are the in-thing at the moment on the golf course, and considering Spring/Summer isn’t exactly just around the corner, now is the time to join the movement! The Cold.Rdy hoodie from Adidas features a built-in stretch for a full range of motion on the course, as well as ribbed details to give an extra-comfortable feel. Keep warm in cool conditions with Cold.Rdy by utilizing the drawcord on the hood for total protection on the course.

New Level launches new 480-DB irons, blending performance and forgiveness

Published

Brian Knudson

New Level has been making some really good golf equipment since the company started up in 2018. Offering irons that are more geared towards the better player, precision has been a fundamental philosophy for New Level in creating irons and wedges.

The 480 line of irons has been the flagship of the brand, and the newest member of that team is the 480-DB iron that is now open to pre-orders. A new cavity design is what the whole 480 line is about, and the 480-DB takes advantage of that with added ball speed and a larger sweet spot.

For players who require their irons to offer the best feel, rest assured the DB is a fully forged (from 1020 carbon steel) one-piece golf club. No multi-piece, hollow design with this iron.

While the 480-DB is the next generation of the popular 902-OS, New Level didn’t follow the current trend in golf by chasing distance with the new iron. They actually weakened the lofts on the 480-DB with the spec sheet showing a 33-degree 7-iron and 45-degree pitching wedge. These lofts allow the DB to have less offset while still offering consistent distance off the face.

A traditional design was also at the forefront of the new irons to make sure that golfers with an eye for detail can look down at them with confidence that they will perform under any condition.

A weight low in the back cavity will allow their master club builders to dial in the perfect weight for the golfer, no matter the length or shaft being used. New Level believes that the new 480-DB is one of the most forgiving one-piece forged irons on the market today. A pre-worn leading edge on the sole should get through the turf quickly and with reduced digging for better turf interaction.

You can pre-order the New Level 480-DB right now on the New Level website.
