The winter leagues have begun, jumpers have been unpacked and woolly hats donned for winter golf, which means the latest clothing from Ping and Adidas, designed to keep you warm and playing in the coming months, is very welcome. We’ve also got the return of a legend, two new putter designs from Cleveland, and new irons from Callaway.

The instantly recognisable Callaway steelhead design is back again for 2016 with the launch of the Steelhead XR irons. Aimed at game-improvers, the latest iteration combines playability with increased speed and distance delivered through 360 Face Cup technology, which allows the edges of the ultra-thin face to flex and release at impact with greater efficiency.

Cobra has unveiled a new version of its largest irons ever, the KING Oversized, promising the company’s biggest iron sweetspot. The new design is at the USGA’s COR (coefficient of restitution) limit – the maximum efficiency with which a golf club can transfer its momentum to the golf ball. All that means the new irons deliver greater speed and distance. Simple!
