Mamma-Mia!

There’s so much good gear designed for women golfers available nowadays, but it wasn’t always the case.

by Tony Dear

The golf-loving mom hasn’t been ignored entirely over the years, but the gear available to her has been a little bit limited at times. She’s largely had to make do with fairly unstylish and uncomfortable clothing that didn’t look or feel great on the golf course or off it, and has had to swing clubs that were essentially smaller versions of something designed for men. Thankfully, times have changed…a lot, and now Mom can stride the fairways with confidence, looking elegant and fashionable, and use equipment designed specifically for her swingspeed, strength, height, hand-size, and even taste in colors. Here are ten items she’ll love that you can get at the PGA Superstores in Greenwood Village or Westminster or, provided you order today, through Amazon Prime or on the manufacturer’s website.

XXIO Women 12 Driver – $700

A brand stablemate of Cleveland Golf and Srixon, XXIO makes extremely light-weight clubs for high-end users. Its clubs are made with ultra-light components such as the Torayca T1100G graphite shaft, that will help Mom generate a little more clubhead speed. The 12 Driver has an impressive range of technology highlighted by ActivWing which helps to stabilize the clubhead during the first part of the downswing. The airfoil generates lift, guiding the club to its optimal impact angle which means more speed. Four alternating layers of stiff and flexible zones, called Rebound Frame, enhance the driver’s overall COR.
Weight Plus Technology puts a little extra weight in the butt-end of the club to help balance and keep the swing smooth.
