About: Gents… my name is Dusty. To date, I have been resident amongst the masses of Gear Patrol devotees. Now, I have received a different calling. My charge is to shrug off the casual and carefree life of one who solely reads; I am to eschew the selfish pleasures man-info consumption, and to, instead, contribute mighty works of journalistic prowess suitable for the enlightenment of the Gear Patrol audience.
I’m sure that we would all agree that Gear Patrol shines as a bright beacon in the world of Men’s Lifestyle and Leisure. With numerous other sites and magazines vying for your attention, you read Gear Patrol because it cuts through the worthless flotsam and jetsam the other sites and blogs rehash day in and day out, bringing you a unique perspective on the latest gizmos and whatnots that matter to you. Well, it just so happens that I majored in gizmos and minored in whatnots.
Hopefully, my background and experiences will allow me to deliver piping-hot and tasty content direct to you from my areas of expertise. I was schooled in the beautiful Southeastern U.S. of A. There I spent only a modicum of time in actual class; instead wisely opting to hone other skills such as video game dominance (Ed: Dusty’s GoldenEye skills were unparalleled - full stop), media and entertainment studies, and indulging my competitive nature.
Post graduation, I sojourned for three years in southern Germany. There, I garnered a great appreciation for European culture as well as their longstanding brewing traditions/skills. Needless to say, travel is up there on my list of personal passions. Now I am back in the States where, by day, I work in sales and marketing in the construction industry. Also, I’m an on-again, off-again runner who enjoys many outdoor activities, preeminent among them being a fanatical, though rarely fantastical, golfer.
That being said, you may have to indulge some of my written idiosyncrasies. If my posts get too wacky, surely someone will let me know (Eric?). I plan to bring a bit of wit and wisdom to a community that clearly already has them in spades. Fellow readers, I shall do you proud by helping advance Gear Patrol in advancing you. After all, it’s a good bet that at least some of what entertains me just might entertain you too.

Golf can be a tough game. Inclement or frigid conditions only make it tougher. If you’re going to be a year-round players and not some pansy who runs to the clubhouse at first drop of rain (we fully endorse the former), you need to equip yourself with more than the tattered glove that’s been crumpled up in the bottom of your bag all summer long.
That’s why the folks at Etonic Golf have come up with a pair (of pairs) of gloves built specifically to handle meteorological challenges that could blow up the scorecard of a lesser man. Their G>Sok line offers a pair designed to handle rainy conditions as well as one specifically for cold-weather play.
More impressions and pics after the jump.
Non-stop fall deluges in the southeast have given this editor ample opportunity to benefit from the G>Sok rain model. With palms lined with EGRIP material and the backs made from proprietary DRI-LITE, these gloves offered a heretofore unknown level of grip in some pretty rainy weather. We’re certain with winter months approaching, the G>Sok winter gloves will offer a similar benefit of tackiness and warmth. Additionally, the price is outstanding, especially when compared to traditional leather gloves that offer much less foul-weather performance. Fairweather fans need not apply.
Cost: $15
(Rain) | $16 (Winter)
