Best Golf Equipment Reviews has been getting a lot of requests for the Golf Course Directory blog to start reviewing some of the best golf equipment. We have taken that into consideration and are now going to start posting some golf club reviews every few posts. So here is the first golf club review on the Golf Course Directory blog!
Best Golf Equipment Reviews has recently purchased a set of the Callaway X22 irons. We have played Callaway golf clubs for about 7 years when we decided to switch over from the TaylorMade golf clubs. We had no complaints about the TaylorMade golf clubs and still love the TaylorMade R9 driver....we got a free set of Callaway X16 irons and couldn't pass them up!
The Callaway X22 irons look similar to the other X series irons with some modifications to make them better. One of the major changes is the VFT. That means variable face thickness. VLF lowers the center of gravity allowing for a better ball trajectory. The Callaway X22 irons still have the bore thru hosel, very clean top line, and available in both men's and woman's.
The Callaway X22 irons are available at all major golf club stores. We purchased our set at a local Golf Mart for about $699.00 in a steel shaft. Graphite shafts are available for about $200 more. If you are in the market for some new golf irons and are looking for the best golf irons, you have to try out the Callaway X22 irons.

Badlands Golf Course
This is an update from Best Golf Equipment Reviews last article on Las Vegas golf courses. In that article we profiled the Badlands golf course. On our recent trip to Las Vegas this week, we had the opportunity to play Badlands golf course.
To start with, Best Golf Equipment Reviews should give you some history on our threesome. I am a 3 handicap player, and the other two players play under 6 times a year! So we had the extremes! In fact, I had to bring one of the other players some golf clubs to play with! I hooked him up with a set of Callaway 22 irons and a TaylorMade R9 driver.
Badlands golf course is a great golf course for all types of players. It had some amazing views and challenging holes. We played the championship 18 which is the tougher 18 holes out of the 27 holes. This is a typical desert golf course but also a links style. So if you mess the fairway you are in the dessert terrain or worst off down in a ravine!
The greens were very good and held my Callaway golf balls excellent. They rolled pure and weren’t overly difficult. The fairways were in excellent condition and made hitting my friend’s Ping irons off of them easy. Although he wasn’t on the fairway that often!
Don’t expect to carry your Ping bags on this course. Carts are mandatory and a true necessity.
Best Golf Equipment Reviews highly recommends the Badlands golf course.

NJ Golf Courses
Best Golf Equipment Reviews is going to try something a little different in today’s golf courses review. Instead of profiling a city like San Diego Golf Courses, we are going to talk about NJ golf courses, or New Jersey golf courses. Best Golf Equipment Reviews wants to mix it up a little and give you a broader database.
Crystal Springs Golf Resort
There are seven golf courses at the Crystal Springs Golf Resort. All of them offer some of the best golf in New Jersey. Those seven golf courses are the Ballyowen, Black Bear, Cascades, Crystal Springs, Great Gorge, Minerals Family Golf, and Wild Turkey.
Ballyowen
105-137 Wheatsworth Road
Hamburg, NJ 07419
973-827-5996
Ballyowen is the number 1 public golf course in New Jersey. There are five holes that have water on them so make sure bring your favorite Callaway golf balls!
Black Bear
138 State Route 23
Franklin, NJ
973-209-2521
This NJ golf course is the closet golf course to New York. It is a great place to host tournaments or participate in a golf school. What better of a place to bring out your new TaylorMade R9 driver and learn how to hit it!
Cascades
3 Wild Turkey Way
Hamburg, NJ
973-827-5996

Mineral Family Golf

Wild Turkey
Wild Turkey has been called by some as a uniquely designed golf course, but also named one of NJ's Top New Public Courses! Bring your best golf clubs cause you are going to need them!

La Purisma Golf Course reviews - Best golf course in Lompac, CA
La Purisima golf course reviews! Best Golf Equipment Reviews has had the opportunity to play La Purisima golf course on a couple occasions. La Purisima golf course is a very nice golf course. Surrounding by rolling hills, La Purisima golf course features the 33’rd toughest golf hole according to Golf Digest! Don’t worry, there are 17 holes to make up for that one hole! Make sure you bring plenty of Callaway golf balls for that one hole!!
La Purisima is a par 72 golf course. The yardage range from 5,763 to 7,105. From the back tees it has a 75.6 rating and a 143 slope! With those kind of numbers, it’s no wonder why they have hosted the PGA Tour qualifying and why you have to be hitting your TaylorMade R9 driver straight and long!
Best Golf Equipment Reviews likes the La Purisima golf course. It is very challenging and scenic. It can get very windy out there in the afternoon so make sure you bring a golf windbreaker. Best Golf Equipment Reviews gives La Purisima golf course 4 tees out of 5 tees. For those new readers, that means get your golf equipment out of the garage and play it!
La Purisima is in the County of Santa Barbara. The golf course is located at the following address:
La Purisma Golf Course
3455 State Highway 246
Lompoc, CA 93436
805-735-8395
