Wilson Staff introduces FG Tour F5 woods & irons


PowerBug release waterproof cart bag P


owerBug has released a new premium waterproof cart bag to ensure ultimate weather protection for all your golf equipment while out on the course.


The technology packed into its UltraV and ProTour Series electric


trolleys has already addressed the important issues of reliability, performance and weight, with PowerBug’s five-year warranty also bringing total peace of mind. The new PowerBug Waterproof Cart Bag, with its robust, yet


lightweight construction, means that all the good work of even the finest of waterproofs and the largest of golf umbrellas won’t be compromised by your bag the moment the rain goes beyond merely a shower. Everything about this cart bag is designed to keep the water out and


your gear dry, right down to the all-important club grips. It features seven waterproof pockets and a fully waterproof rainhood, all relying on heavy-duty waterproof zippers to ensure that no water seeps through. Perhaps most important, though, is the 2000mm waterproof fabric from which the bag is craſted to keep the rain out in even the heaviest of downfalls. The bag is still packed with all the features and touches golfers have


F5 driver, fairway woods and hybrids along with a new line of forged irons. The FG Tour F5 club series has been

developed with a new Feel, Crossover and Distance (F-C-D) system to meet technology needs of every type of golfer. Defining players within the three categories enables club features and benefits to be matched with individual playing styles. “The new Crossover category is for the


golfer who wants workability, forgiveness and distance in their clubs,” said global director of innovation Michael Vrska. “Our product design starts and ends with the player in mind and whilst the new F5 designs are geared to suit the eye of the better player, our game improvement technology helps complement each golfer’s game.” The F5 driver is offered in two loſts (9° and


10.5°) each featuring a six-way adjustable hosel covering loſt settings from 8° to 12° in half degree increments and three adjustable sole weights to allow players to attain their ideal launch angle, ball speed and spin rate. The additional Green Means GO! Fast Fit


technology allows players to make quick adjustments by eliminating the need to remove the club head from the shaſt. An interchangeable weight has been


placed low and close to the face decreasing spin while maintaining an optimal launch angle for maximum distance. Reactive Face technology features variable thicknesses to maximize response and ball speeds at every spot on the face. The FG Tour F5 series will be available


from January 2016. www.wilson.com
