Products worth the price tag

The theme of this year’s “Best Of” franchise was essentials — welcoming in golf’s newcomers by outlining a range of products that will never steer them wrong. Sometimes, that means pulling the purse strings. But rest assured, while some of these items may carry a hefty price tag, they’ll never steer you wrong.

A pair of tech-forward earbuds

The new Bose Quiet-Comfort earbuds will transport you into your own zone during practice sessions. They’re designed with internal and external microphones to cancel out unwanted noise, and they have supersoft nozzles that contour to your ear to create a seal from the world outside. Quiet-Comfort earbuds also have intuitive touch technology, they’re sweat- and water-resistant, have Bluetooth connectivity and six hours of battery life. Dial up your favorite playlist and you’ll feel right at home on the range.
