PHILADELPHIA, Pa.– For years golf industry veterans have been attending the massive PGA Show in Orlando every January. And for years those people have returned home to face the same question … over and over. “What did you see that you liked?”
And for years that question has been answered in a regular report – on television, radio and in print publications. Once again, the popular “Tony’s Top Ten” unveils some eye-opening new products in the world of golf.
This year, Tony Leodora was joined by others in the Traveling Golfer television show team – Managing Partner Jeff Gilder and Director of Sales Brian Stephen – in the search for the top new products. Their joint effort did not disappoint.
Ten varied products made the ‘hot list” and will be unveiled in the March episode of the award-winning Traveling Golfer television show.
The list includes:
- Aero-Swing – A training aid that uses wind resistance to create greater swing speed.
- Bridgestone e9 Long Drive ball – A new product in the distance performance category.
- Copper Tech Half-Glove – All of the copper-infused technology in a versatile half-glove.
- Embraced – A CBD-Charged Compression System of sleeves and socks.
- Makefield Putters – The new custom-fitted putter that is taking the industry by storm.
- Skoni Golf Shoes – A new line of golf shoes for the casual, fun-loving golfer.
- Tee M Up – From the creator of the popular Four Yards More Tee, a tool to create consistent teeing technique.
- Stride Follow Me Bag – From Zero Friction, this new golf trolley follows the golfer, with the aid of a belt-held remote control.
- Tour Edge Exotics C723 and E723 Drivers – The latest from Tour Edge builds on its latest line of drivers, with the addition of more technology then ever before.
- 360 Bands and 360 Grip – Resistance training bands specifically designed for golf.
“There was so much to examine at this year’s PGA Show, it took a team effort,” said Tony Leodora, “Finding the Best of the Best is always the goal at the PGA Show and I think we came up with another list that fills the bill.”

As part of every Traveling Golfer show there is the feature, “Tech Talk”, hosted by Tour Edge Golf experts, such as President Dave Glod. With years of experience as a club maker, Glod presents an inside look at the research and development of high-quality golf equipment.
Responding to golfers’ never-ending demands to learn more about interesting golf courses and golf resorts across the country and around the world, well-traveled host Tony Leodora created the Traveling Golfer so he could take viewers on video trips to some of the most exciting golf locations. In each of the last nine years, the show has been honored by the International Network of Golf with one of its prestigious awards. In four of those years the Traveling Golfer was named the No. 1 Golf Television Show in America.
The Traveling Golfer is a series of monthly shows hosted by Leodora and his partner, Jeff Gilder. Both have many years of experience in televised golf. The featured destination stays on the website for one month, before being replaced by a new show. Alternate shows also air in a two-month rotation. All old shows are archived for continued viewing on the YouTube Network and on the home website, www.travelinggolfer.tv.
