1. Colbalt Q 4 Slope Rangefinder - for golfers of all levels
$245

https://cobalt-golf.com/collections/rangefinders/products/q-4-slope-rangefinder

Designed for casual golfers and weekend warriors who are looking to up their skill level with a versatile, compact, and intuitive rangefinder, the Q-4 Slope 6x22 1300 yd Golf Rangefinder fits the bill.

Built around IPX7 waterproof construction, crystal clear optics, red and black display options, and a fully adjustable diopter, the Q-4 Slope is our latest rangefinder for those looking for a powerful ranging tool to serve any budget.

The Q-4 Slope features our unique Adaptive Contrast Display which allows users to choose between either an auto red/black or black-only display. Best used in low light conditions, the Adaptive Contrast Display allows for comfortable ranging without losing the reticle in the shadows. Conversely, for bright, sunny conditions, the black-only display easily cuts through high contrast targets allowing you to discern your readings in crisp detail.

A simple to use menu navigation removes any complications when you need to make quick changes on the course. A dedicated slope button conveniently allows you to switch on Slope Mode for precise slope-compensation during normal play as well as the ability to easily disengage Slope Mode to conform to USGA tournament regulations.

8. adidas Solarthon Golf Shoes - Great comfort, made with recycled materials
www.adidas.com

Solarthon, an ultra-lightweight and comfortable footwear option that’s designed to keep feet feeling fresh all day long. To usher-in the summer season, we’re starting out by releasing this in a limited-edition colorway.
Solarthon was ultimately inspired by the longest day of the year, the summer solstice, where prolonged daylight motivates golfers to make the most of the extra time.

“Golfers get excited this time of year because there are more hours of sunlight, which ultimately translates into the opportunity to play more of the sport they love,” said Masun Denison, global director of footwear, adidas Golf. “We wanted to capture that excitement and eagerness to maximize their time on the course, so we created this lightweight, comfortable option to help keep them playing, even if it’s from dawn to dusk.”

Solarthon features a full-length BOOST midsole for incredible comfort along with a spikeless Fishscale Traxion outsole to provide grip and stability when golfers need it most. We also included a film around the edges of the upper to make it water resistant and guard against that early morning dew when golfers first head out to the course. This limited edition features our PRIMEBLUE textile upper – a high-performance recycled yarn containing at least 50 percent Parley Ocean Plastic. It’s another example of how we are working towards our mission to help END PLASTIC WASTE.

Ensuring that golfers got the support and stability they needed to go along with all-day comfort was critical when designing the shoe. To make them ready for the course, we put in an external TPU heel counter along with additional reinforcements in the upper so that golfers will have that locked-in feeling both during the swing and as they walk the course.
This limited-edition gray, blue and white colorway will be available beginning June 15 while supplies last on adidas.com, the adidas app, and at select retailers worldwide.

Casusgrill the lightweight compostable grill made from bamboo and lava stone
Words such as “convenient,” “disposable,” and “single-use” aren’t usually associated with environmental stewardship. That’s changed with the introduction of a clever compostable contraption called CasusGrill.
Direct from Denmark, where it has won awards for design and simplicity, CasusGrill provides a simple, economical solution for anyone who wants to experience healthy cooking outdoors without the hassles of conventional grills.

Made from cardboard, bamboo, and lava stone, CasusGrill lights with a match and heats to 600°F within minutes – a perfect temperature for cooking meats, fish, and vegetables. It stays hot for an hour or more and is sized to cook enough food for four hungry adults.

Whether it is used to cook steak, burgers, seafood, poultry, or grilled vegetables, the grill imparts a flavor that will make a believer out of anyone. All it takes is one try and most people are amazed at how simple, safe, and easy it is. The compact, 2-pound package makes grilling simple anywhere, from scenic mountain overlooks to golf courses, city parks, or the backyard.
