Black Friday is just around the corner and Nike is set to release the new 2011 Nike SQ Machspeed Black driver. A black driver on Black Friday...
The new Nike SQ Machspeed Black driver is available in a round or square head-shape and features Nike's patented STR8-Fit hosel. This technology allows golfers allows the golfer to put the head in 8 possible positions resulting in 8 different shot shapes. So if you have a tendency to fade (or slice!) the ball...you can adjust the clubhead to a closed position to square up the club face at impact for a straighter and longer drive. The SQ Machspeed Black driver has a very sleek look (with the black head and face) and really sets up great at address. If your looking for a really easy to hit driver with full adjustability, I would recommend looking at the Nike SQ Machspeed Black drivers today.
If you were one of the million (or so) golfers that were looking for Ecco Street Premiere Golf Shoes this summer but had no luck...your luck has changed. We just received a new shipment of the Ecco Street Premiere Golf Shoes in today (10/27/10). These shoes are available online (with Free Shipping!) and in-store in 4 great colors. Check them out below:
Bison - Black/Chili - Moonless/Marine Blue - White/Blue
We don't expect these to last very long...so get your Ecco Street Premiere Golf Shoes while you can!
Looking for a new driver? Look no further than the new Callaway Diablo Octane Driver. The Diablo Octane driver is 8 yard longer than titanium (according to Callaway player testing 2010). The new Diablo Octane driver is fueled by Forged Composite, a unique new material from Callaway that allows superior distribution of clubhead mass, compared with all-titanium drivers.
We were able to see and try out this driver last week and I can honestly tell you that it was a hit with our staff. The shape of the head is great and really exudes confidence at address. Probably the biggest compliment was the sound...most other composite drivers have a "dead" sound but the Diablo Octane did not. It sounded just like a traditional titanium driver. As far as performance goes, I was very impressed. The Diablo Octane was just as long or longer than any other driver we tested that day.
The Callaway Diablo Octane Driver is being released on November 12th, 2010 and be pre-ordered online or in-store.
Did anyone watch the TaylorMade new product launch webcast on Thursday 9/9/10? This is the first time, that I can at least remember, that a golf manufacturer has announced a major product launch via webcast online. I though it was pretty cool...only like 12 minutes long. Short and sweet!
The biggest announcement of the TaylorMade webcast is the new 2011 TaylorMade Burner 2.0 iron. The Burner 2.0 iron set is replacing the extremely popular Burner 09 irons. The Burner 2.0 irons will be released in the beginning of October 2010. You can pre-order them now if you'd like to...
We will have more details and a review of the Burner 2.0 irons in the next couple weeks!
As most golfers know, the Ecco Street Premiere Golf Shoes are one of the most popular and hard to find shoes in 2010. Ecco is planning on continuing the Street Premiere shoe line for 2011. We just saw the new 2011 Street Premiere shoe line and I am very impressed to say the least. Ecco will be introducing 3 new colors in the Street Premiere line along with another Street Premiere shoe with Camel leather. This Camel leather Street is a more supple leather and feels great. Look for these new Camel Street Premiere shoes around holiday season...
We just received the new Ecco Street Premiere in the Moonless/Marine Blue color. It's a very nice looking dark blue color. I'm sure they won't last long...sizes 41 - 46 in stock now!
Unstoppable Distance Arrives - 9/9/10
Check back with Carl's Golfland on 9/9/10 to see what great new product TaylorMade is introducing...
The new Ping Tour S Wedges are creating quite a buzz on tour and around town. After seeing the wedge itself, I have to say I was impressed. The first thing that catches your eye is the classic design and beautiful finishes...especially the Rustique finish (my favorite). The Ping Tour S Wedges feature machined face and conforming grooves that allow players to manage spin from all conditions and a re-shaped sole geometry allows for versatility in your shot making. The wedge is made from 17-4 stainless steel and is available in 2 finishes...Brushed Silver & Rustique. Multiple loft/bounce combinations are available, ensuring you have options in improving your short game and can hit the ball close from all conditions.
The Ping Tour S Wedges will be available mid-September 2010 but are available for pre-order today!
Women looking for a new easy-to-hit driver need to check out the new Ping Faith Driver. The Ping Faith Driver is designed to meet the specific needs of women golfers and and is offered in 2 lofts (12º & 14º). The larger 460 cc clubhead of the the Faith driver along with the new internal weighting system allows women golfers to hit longer and straighter drives more consistently. The Faith Series Drivers come standard with a premium ultra-lightweight graphite shaft to help increase club head speed and overall distance.
After seeing the Faith driver in person about 3 weeks ago, I think that Ping did a remarkable job with this club. The head is the perfect shape and the color scheme is feminine but subtle and not too over the rop. After watching a few women try this club, I know why Ping says it's the most forgiving ladies driver they've ever made...very straight!
The Ping Faith driver is part of a new Faith series of woods, irons, and putters from Ping in the fall. We will examine the rest of the clubs in the next week or so.
The Ping Faith Driver is shipping in late August and will sell for $249.99.

Womens ShoesGolf BallsHaving trouble hitting your driver straight this year or looking for more accuracy off the tee?
If your answer is yes, like most of us, you may want to take a look at the new Ping K15 Driver. The Ping K15 Driver helps the average golfer hit the ball straighter with Ping's patented Straight Fit Technology. This visible technology places approximately 10% of head mass in the heel, which helps square the face for consistently straight tee shots. The K15 driver also features a larger profile 460 cc head and an ultra-thin titanium face for maximum distance. The stock shaft is the ultra popular Ping TFC 149 graphite shaft.
Overall the Pink K15 driver looks and performs great. The traditional setup creates confidence at address while the superior technology really helps generate consistent tee shots.
Check out the new Ping K15 Driver at Carl's Golfland...release date is late August 2010.
Just a reminder to those customers and golf fans that have not seen the advertisements; LPGA Super Star Morgan Pressel is coming to Carl's Golfland (Bloomfield Hills) on Tuesday August 3rd for a special appearance and clinic.

As we get closer to the end of the summer, we are starting to see some new products that are available now and some later this year. One of the most anticipated annual releases is the new FootJoy Golf Shoe line.
At Carl's Golfland, we were enough to see this entire line a couple weeks ago and it looks wonderful. Some new styles for men and women and really great color combinations too.
The new FootJoy line is anchored by the FootJoy Icon and Icon Wave shoes. The FootJoy Icon is Footjoy's top-line premium shoe with Calfskin leather and very cool new styles. Check out the full FootJoy Icon lineup here...
FootJoy also has a new lineup for their Dryjoys, Contour and Superlite shoes as well.
We have received about half of the new 2011 line in-stock right now and the rest will filter in over the rest of the year..
Check 'em out! More updates to come...
The response from the release of the TaylorMade Rossa Ghost Putter has been amazing. The Ghost putter debuted in our stores in early June and what a month it has been.
If you've never seen the Ghost before...don't be afraid! First of all, the putter it almost completely white. This white color contrasts very nicely against the green to make it easier to see the topline and alignment aids of the putter. The 3 black alignment lines of the Ghost putter make it very simple to aim and drain more putts.
We've found that the stark contrast of the white color along with the mallet design make the Ghost putter a very nice addition to the TaylorMade putter line for 2010.
Take home one for yourself today in 33" - 35"...right and left handed available.
TaylorMade Golf has announced that they are extending the Burner Bucks and R9 Rewards promotions through July 31st 2010.
