13 reasons to buy the new issue of Today’s Golfer

The accuracy issue: Whether it’s getting fitted for the right clubs, practicing the perfect drills or taking tips from legends of the game – it’s all right here in the latest issue of TG

Lets face it, every single one of us would love to be more accurate. Whether it’s hitting more fairways, boosting that greens in regulation percentage or being able to lag putts to tap in distance more often – we’ve all got something in our game that needs a little bit of attention. 

Hitting fairways and greens is the bedrock of a solid score; you’ll never score well if you’re constantly chipping out of the trees or trying to get up and down for par. That’s precisely why (with a little helpful advice from Rickie Fowler and TG’s top 50 coaches) this month’s issue of TG focuses on helping you with your accuracy.

But that’s not all! From seeing the UK’s tallest man get fitted for record-breaking golf equipment and talking golf with the Harry Potter Weasley twins (Chris and Oliver Phelps), there’s plenty of reasons to be picking up our latest issue.

In fact, the former Harlem Globe Trotter and soon to be Hollywood actor plays off single figures – but he’s always had a normal sized set of golf clubs. We went down to Ping HQ to find out a little more about him as he got fitted for a brand new set of clubs – that even broke a record!

Driver Test: Ping G400 vs TaylorMade M2 vs Callaway Epic

Ping’s G400 driver has gone down a storm both on tour and with regular golfers, and it’s no surprise given that it is more aerodynamic than ever and sounds better than a Ping driver has for years. But how does it compare with two of the best-selling clubs of 2017 (and the two longest drivers we’ve hit?). We put the Ping G400 up against the TaylorMade M2 and the Callaway Epic Sub Zero.
