Golf merchandise spotlight: Waterproof Blue Tees Golf speaker has impressive touch screen

The innovative company showed off a speaker that is making waves in the industry.


As part of the PGA of America’s 2025 Merchandise Summit in Frisco, Texas, Golfweek spent time with a number of golf’s up-and-coming brands, and the innovative Blue Tees Golf showed off a speaker that is making waves in the industry.

Blue Tees’ Player Plus touchscreen GPS speaker provides front, back, center, and hazard yardages, as well as drive distance, all while displaying your score. The speaker is also waterproof and has a strong magnet.

“In addition to standing up to the elements, you can throw it in the ocean, throw it in the pool and it’ll sound just as good in the water as it will out,” said Will Carswell, who works for the company.

In just four years, Blue Tees has become the second-largest rangefinder brand in the country.

Best junior golf gear and equipment for 2023

Get your all the golf gear your future champion needs.

Getting your junior the right set of clubs is important, but making sure their bag has everything in it that they’ll need is just as crucial.

So, we thought it’d be a good idea to put together a list of items every junior golfer needs. Shoes, golf balls, rangefinders, push carts and more are all featured in this post from brands like Nike, adidas, Callaway, Titleist and more.

If you’re interested, we have already put together lists of the best junior golf clubs and best junior apparel.

So, without further ado, let’s jump into this list of the best junior golf gear and equipment.

Amazon Prime Day: What would golf equipment writer David Dusek buy?

In addition to the low prices on TVs, clothing and digital gear, Amazon Prime Day features great deals on golf equipment and accessories.

Two years ago on Amazon Prime Day, I spotted something I had wanted for months and the price was right. Click, into my virtual shopping cart. After two more clicks, my address was confirmed, and my debit card was changed. Two days later, an old-school shag bag arrived, and it has made practicing a pleasure ever since.

It’s easy to get swept up in the frenzy of Amazon Prime Day because some of the sales and price drops make things we might not buy seem like bargains. Electronic gizmos that seemed like a waste of money last week are, suddenly, look like a smart buy. As my grandfather used to say, “You could go broke buying bargains like this!”

In addition to the low prices on TVs, clothing and digital gear, Amazon Prime Day also features great deals on golf equipment and accessories, making it a savvy time to stock up on things that you will need this season, and maybe even next season too. Many golf-related items are not on sale as a part of Amazon Prime Day, but after looking over the sales Tuesday morning, here are some things that caught my eye.
