 Most of us don’t have caddies ready to clean our golf balls before putting. And who hasn’t forgotten to bring a damp towel the green? Enter GolfRound. The idea is simple: moisten the terry cloth side with a little water, fold the 9-inch disk in half, then fold it again and put it in your pocket. It’s there to unfold and use when you need it, and the water-repellant outer shell keeps the moisture out of your pocket. GolfRound sells for $7, but bulk prices are available. Visit www.golfround.com or call (800) 611-9774. GHOST TAPE Club pro Doug Ritter was searching for a better product to protect the equipment in his pro shop when he invented Ghost Tape, a clear, peel-off, die-cut decal that can easily be applied to the top, bottom and face of the club. The decals are virtually invisible and have no adverse effect on the speed or spin of the golf ball when a club is being tested. Although pro shops are the largest market for Ghost Tape, recreational golfers looking to preserve the condition of their metal woods can order top or bottom decals. Clubface decals do not conform to USGA rules. A box of Ghost Tape retails for $100 and contains three rolls of 100 decals for the top, bottom and face. For more information, call (717) 397-4345 or visit ghosttape.com. LIQUID CADDY It’s tough to carry your golf bag and a beverage at the same time. The Liquid Caddy beverage holder can help. It comes with three attachments — Velcro, suction cup and clip mount — so you can take it from your car to your golf bag with ease. Pull and twist the bottom of the cup holder and it increases in length and adjusts its inner diameter. Neoprene inside the holder insulates any beverage to keep it at its proper temperature, and the gimbaled action always keeps your beverage upright. The Liquid Caddy comes in five colors and sells for $15. Visit www.kasswinns.com ZERO RESTRICTION It’s been a wet winter in the Southland, and some golfers were probably caught off guard. Zero Restriction outerwear looks great and provides superior weather protection with its waterproof Gore-Tex fabric. The back pleats on the jackets, vests and windshirts also provide freedom of movement, and the rain pants have generous leg zippers at the ankles so they’re easy to put on and take off. Zero Restriction products were worn by members of the Ryder Cup, Curtis Cup and Palmer Cup teams. To find a store near you that carries the Zero Restriction line, visit www.zerorestriction.com NEOX SUNGLASSES Sunglasses aren’t just about looking cool on the golf course — they can often mean the difference between seeing a shot clearly or not. But sunglasses are often cumbersome and can be a nuisance during a swing. Enter Neox Sunglasses, touted by the San Diego-based manufacturer as the most functional, durable and vision-saving sports sunglasses on the market. Using a patented lens technology that allows for enhanced protection and minimized distortion, Neox protects the eyes from UV rays and blocks blue light wavelengths. The lens material also makes the sunglasses impact resistant and scratch resistant. The wraparound glasses are available in a range of colors and models, costing from $59.95 to $97.50.
