I don’t golf but…
I don’t golf, but I still find this quite useful. The expected Victorinox quality and functionality without the clunkiness of a standard Swiss Army knife.
Great gift
I gave this item as a gift to a golfer. He liked it very much.

Don’t waste your money!!!
This is an out dated device. Their web site is gone and you can’t even buy the software for it. Shame on Amazon for even offering it!
Limited to 4 players
I bought this because of the accommodation for unlimited players. I received it just yesterday, broke out the manual, and read that it can only handle up to 4 players. Quite the disappointment when we sometimes have a 5th wheel. Buyer beware of the 4 player limit!! Otherwise, since I haven’t been able to use the item, I cannot vouch for its function on the actual course, yet…
INTECH Golf Tee 3 1/4″

Golf tees
Well my son-in-law was well pleased with them. What more do I need to say. A better price than at Wal-mart and a much better quality than Wal-mart.
Golf Tees: They work
I’ve purchased Intech golf tees a number of times and they don’t disappoint. They’re pretty much golf tees; not too much to describe. These are very long ‘Texas’ style tees for hitting your driver off the tee-box. If you tend to like your ball high off the grass, these are the right size.
If you golf a fair amount, buy the larger 500 Pack as it’s a much better deal. Intech also makes some pretty decent golf balls that are also very inexpensive.
SkyCaddie SG5 Golf GPS

A great golf industry company
The first unit I purchased had a defective satelite receiver. I had to mail it back. SkyCaddie has a great website and the email response for problems is within one day. I sent the unit back to Amazon and SkyCaddie re-instated my membership on the new unit. The company is true to their word.
As for golfing, the device is priceless. No matter where you are on the course, you know yardage to targets and trouble. The “intelligreen” technology is great. You know the size of the green and as soon as you see the pin you can figure yardage to the pin location. No more guesswork on approaches. I played a course for the first time and had no hesitation is club selection. LOVE IT.
Works OK but don’t buy because of lack of support
We all know that this thing works OK & gives reasonable accurate yardage to the green. BUT-the customer support is pathetic! Difficult software that works marginal at best, requires yearly fees and when I upgraded my service & paid $20 only to find out it was only good for 2 months. When I call “customer support” “if you can get through”, they are very argumentative & condescending.
Titleist Pro V1 Golf Balls
January 8, 2009 at 2:17 am | In Golf Balls | Leave a CommentTags: Golf, Golf Balls, Golf Equipment, Golf Review, Golf Reviews, Sports
The Titleist Pro V1 golf ball is designed for serious golfers of all levels that demand Tour-validated technology and performance. The ball offers such essential features as a soft and resilient core that improves your feel and distance, a resilient Ionomer casing layer, and a high-performance Urethane Elastomer cover. The technologies combine to produce low spin off your driver or irons, while maintaining soft compression for outstanding feel when approaching the greens. Golfers will especially appreciate the Pro V1’s Drop-and-Stop control, which helps them better influence the spin on approach shots. The A.I.M. side stamp, meanwhile, is terrific for putting, as it helps you align the ball with the hole. Other details include a higher-coverage 392-dimple design that improves the flight trajectory and a staggered wave parting line that enhances distance.
Titleist also sells an upgraded version of the Pro V1 called the Pro V1x. Designed to boost distance even more, the Pro V1x retains many of the same features of the Pro V1–including the staggered wave parting line, A.I.M. side stamp, and Stop-and-Drop control system–but offers a 332-dimple design for added length, along with a soft-center 1.55-inch dual core design that produces less spin off the driver and long irons. This makes the Titleist Pro V1x particularly valuable for the game’s hardest hitters, as it’s longer off the tee than the Pro V1. Golfers who want a softer feel should opt for the Pro V1 instead.
Never received merchandise
I ordered 3 dozen golf balls approximately 40 days ago and never received. I am hopeful that the long delay is due to the holidays.
Easy purchase
Quick order fill and exactly what I expected. Packaging could have been better than the double envelope, but they went straight to my bag anyway. I would recommend and use this service again.
Samsonite Golf Trunk Organizer

Keep all your golf gear neatly arranged when traveling to South Carolina or other resort destinations with the Samsonite golf trunk organizer. The trunk–which is made of durable ripstop polyester with waterproof backing–offers two levels of storage, similar to the design of many jewelry boxes. The bottom level holds such items as shoes (up to three pairs) and ball sleeves, while the top level is perfect for storing shirts, pants, and other apparel. The trunk also includes a large mesh section above the top for smaller items, such as gloves, tees, snacks, or water. Finally, the trunk’s movable dividers help you keep everything in place, so you can easily partition your jackets, rain slickers, and shirts. Other features include a ventilated mesh front door that helps you air out the contents, a small mesh pocket for money or small accessories, an eyeglass/cell phone pouch, a series of loops for holding golf tools or grips, two end carrying handles made of ergonomic rubber, and self-healing nylon zippers with oversized zipper pulls.
The Samsonite golf trunk organizer, which includes a lock and key, measures 24 by 10 by 14 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 5 pounds.
Shoe compartment practically worthless
I was excited to finally be able to organize my trunk. I am very disappointed though. The shoe compartment on the bottom is very low, it would be better for storing flip flops than golf shoes.
Nice and sturdy
This organizer works really well! Even for those with larger shoe sizes, two pair of shoes fit nicely. It’s also very sturdy. A good value.
Victorinox Swiss Army Golf Tool With Callaway Golf Balls

Victorinox Swiss Army Golf Tool With Callaway Golf Balls
Victorinox’s Swiss Army Golf Tool Gift Set is the perfect gift for the golfer in your life when any special occasion comes up. It comes with a one-hand divot repair tool, a nylon carrying pouch with clip for your golf bag, and three Callaway Big Bertha golf balls. The Golf Tool does not look like a conventional pocket knife–it’s wider, flat and lies very comfortably in the hand. Ten tools are fitted underneath the robust, scratch-free nylon shell, including a ball marker, repair tool, tee puncher, groove cleaner, blade, scissors, tweezers, toothpick, and a nail file.
The Repair Tool can be extended using the golf ball shaped pushbutton and can be used to repair depressions in the grass. The blades fitted on the side disappear into the inside of the tool with the slightest pressure, so that the fork is very comfortable to use. The blade of the Groove Cleaner can be used to clean the grooves on the golf club, and is very useful for punching the position for the tee–especially in hard or frozen ground.
Golf Tool Details:
- Ball marker
- Repair tool
- Tee puncher
- Groove cleaner
- Pocket knife blade
- Scissors
- Tweezers
- Toothpick
- Nail file
About Swiss Army Knives
In 1884, Swiss cutler Karl Elsener set up shop in Ibach-Schwyz, installing a waterwheel in Tobelbach Brook to run his grinding and polishing machines. Thus began what would become the international brand name Victorinox, a combination of Victoria, for Elsener’s mother, and “inox,” or stainless steel. Today, Victorinox produces watches, luggage, clothing, and, famously, Swiss Army Knives. The forerunner of that name dates to 1897, when Elsener patented the Swiss Officer’s and Sports Knife he supplied to the Swiss Army. Following World War II, American servicemen and women shopping in PX stores shortened the name to Swiss Army Knife, which lives on in English-speaking countries around the world and has become a metaphor or versatility.
This Victorinox Swiss Army Golf tool is absolutely worth every penny!
I had my first one for about two years before it fell out of my pocket at my local course. I immediately went home and bought another one here on Amazon. I play about 50 rounds a year so that’s a testament to the quality of the tool. Sliding the divot tool out of its holster is just plain cool
Great Product
I just purchased this item and have used it on every Golf outing since its purchase. I had read that some had trouble keeping the ball marker in place, I have had no such trouble. The onl problem I see is having to clean dirt off the divot tool before retracting the tool.

There’s too much of an incline and the ball doesn’t return far on the rug even with new batteries.
