Advantages: Stops your other foot getting muddy.
Disadvantages: It gets muddy.

...Unfortunately I seem to have dirty hobbies. By that I don`t mean disgusting or kinkiy, just dirty as in mud. Not that much mud really, just muddy boots (usually). I often end up with muddy wellies or riding boots and to remove them I used to either get the door step muddy by using that or get my clean foot or slipper muddy by removing the remaining one when you have used your other foot for the first one. Some clever person obviously realised that boots can be difficult to remove if they are tight around the calf and don`t have a zip and invented the boot jack. What is a Boot Jack? * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * A boot jack is a clever little device designed to make the removal of such boots much easier.

Advantages: made to your specifications
Disadvantages: price tag

...….) This is tantamount to a Rolls Royce in cricketing terms – a Private Bin bat will set you back $US 325 and is totally handmade to your specifications, and includes shipping to anywhere in the world (as a guide it takes about 10 days for a bat to get to Austria from New Zealand) and for non commonwealth destinations you might find that an import duty is charged (I paid ATS 240 approx £11): When you order your bat you have to specify the following details: Handle length: (super short, short or long handle), which of course depends partially on your height and style of play – the bat should not be any higher than your hip when standing upright – with difference in handle length being approximately 2cm per size – although this of course has a great deal of bearing on the centre of gravity of the bat, and bat speed when playing shots.

Advantages: Great Balance and Feel
Disadvantages: None

...I've had by Ping Anser 2 for may years now, probably 10 or even more, and have only just thought to write a review. The ping anser is a classic and now almost legendary putter. It a simple heal toe weighted putter with a slightly offset shaft (thanks to the small right angled 'S' shaped hostel. For alignment there is a single white line (about 5 mm thick). As the above hopefully shows the design is simple, yet it is much imitated (the Scotty Cameron 'Newport' is a copy of the anser). It has great balance and gives a very good true roll off the face. Another area where the Ping anser comes into its own is in terms of its custom options - there are a great variety of shaft lenghts from 32'' up to 37'' and also lies - from 4 degrees flat to 5 degress upright giving 10 variations, even the loft can be customied, as standard the face...
