Best Golf Blogs: 19 Golf Blogs That Have You Covered

Are you a golf enthusiast? Do you occasionally enjoy current news, equipment reviews, and tips related to the sport? If the answer is yes, then it goes without saying that you’ve been frustrated time and time again looking for blogs that can give you exactly what you are looking for. You have at one time clicked on a blog link that promised you quality feed, but you somehow ended up on a video featuring an angry orange pissing off happy fruits. All you wanted was a review on the latest golf equipment and now you are angrier than the angry orange and you can’t even recall what it is exactly you were looking for. How do I know this? It has happened to me a lot, so much even that I sought to compile a list of 17 of the best golf blogs out there. Not to say that there aren’t others, but these ones were good enough to get on our radar.

The Real Deal

With this list you will get current updates and most importantly, you will no longer waste time following links that lead you nowhere. Let’s check them out!

It is impossible not to start with this one as Rob Green, the author, is a tutor and an enthusiast with over 40 years’ experience. I want to stop here and let that statement sink in, but there is more. His articles have been featured on golf channel, CBS, and Bleacher report, which should be enough proof that you will be getting some great advice on his site.

Reading his blog is like taking online classes from a grandmaster, best part being you won’t spend a cent. This blog is best known for golf guides for beginners, tips, and videos that help you improve your game to a whole new level. They are always posting new articles so you will never lack something new to read.

They update about 42 posts per week which should be more than enough.

Golf is considered to be a male dominated sport so few people take the time to explain the game from a woman’s point of view.

Let’s face it, women not only enjoy the game, but also want to look fabulous while at it. If you are looking for the latest fashion trends in golf then you need not look further. Despite the name, the blog has a lot of information that male golfers could also enjoy, and besides, who says men don’t want to look good too? They put up posts twice every month.

Definitely worth checking out.
