Golf Pride x EON Productions launch limited-edition 007-themed golf grip kit
Golf Pride has partnered with EON Productions to create a limited edition 007-themed golf grip kit.

Paying homage to the 60th anniversary of the 1964 film Goldfinger, this kit includes 14 custom grips and a specially crafted gold bar collector display.
“While we’re a performance equipment brand at heart, and this grip certainly carries the innovative and high-quality hallmarks of Golf Pride, we really wanted to have fun with this one,” said James Ledford, President of Golf Pride.

Golf Pride applied its vast experience with design and material innovation to build the base performance for this product, before tackling the fun challenge of bringing to life a grip that embodies the cultural phenomenon that is James Bond.
The tuxedo inspired grip represents the best of Bond, a tribute to the character’s timeless style and refinement as he has evolved over the last six decades. A 007 embossed surface pattern with lapels from the Goldfinger era merges seamlessly with a diamond quilted design, evoking the white dress shirt of a modern secret agent.

A black grosgrain bow tie and gold accents complete the look, mirroring the suave style of the GoldenEye Bond.
The kit retails for $189/£189 and will be available for pre-sale on 007Store.com beginning October 1st.

Neal Shipley, AKA, the “Big Fridge’s,” custom stamping
Neal Shipley was the first to admit that he enjoyed his food while in college. But since his days at Ohio State, he’s slimmed down and earned a PGA Tour Card.
That hasn’t stopped him from having fun with his wedge stampings, though it’s led to some misunderstandings.
On the 54 (degree), we have ‘Big Fudge,'” Shipley told GolfWRX. “It was supposed to be ‘Big Fridge,’ so this happened a little while ago. ‘Big Fridge’ was a nickname between my college teammates and I, with ‘fridge’ meaning stomach, a big stomach.

“We told the Ping guys to put … ‘Big Fridge’ on it, and I think maybe some bad cell service or something, and they thought I said ‘fudge,’ so they put fudge on it.”
On Shipley’s 50-degree he also continues the food theme, this time with his go-to order at the “Golden Arches,” and his stamping “DONS 7.”
“The number 7 meal, the two cheeseburger meal, that was my McDonald’s order, back when I would have McDonald’s frequently,” Shipley shared.

Pointless to buy if you like playing in competitions as they’re non-conforming
