Looks like these will sell about as well as those under armour golf mouth guards. I'll stick to conventional coffee and gum with nutritional facts table.

Golf gum ? Really? Why in the world would I want that when I can sip a nice hot cup of free coffee at our clubhouse with my friends.

I'm kinda liking it. I'm NOT a coffee drinker, I absolutely hate the stuff. Not a fan of energy drinks either, can't find one to satisfy my taste. I would definitely give this a try. What's the worst, if it's terrible spit it out.

I like coffee AND gum. Chew while I play most of the time. I'd definitely give this a try, at least, if it wasn't priced ridiculously.

I think that Gatorade used to make gum back in the day. It was supposed to have the same benefits as drinking it.

Seems like its the same as "Run Gum" made for runners, the consistency of run gum isnt the same as regular gum.

So, y'all: I entered this contest and won! My package of loot is supposed to be on the way. I'll let you know what I think of the gum, even though it might not be while on the course for at least a few more weeks.

Rec'd my box of loot today! 25 pk of GolfGum, 2 “putter rag” size towels (which I really needed) and some stickers. Who doesn't LOVE stickers?!? I'll test the gum out tomorrow; have a bit of a road trip to watch my son in a college spring soccer game. I'll file a report at some future date.

Let us know how you play chewing this stuff. Especially putting.

I realized a while back that I can't have caffeine less than two hours before I play. Maybe some weak coffee but I like coffee black and strong.

Nice post GoBlue

Well, due to my broken heel, I haven't been able (yet) to try this product on the golf course. However, I chew gum a lot while playing, so I know that in and of itself won't be an issue. I often tuck the gum similar to what you would do with snuff, and that's how I keep it often while I play.

On to the product: I haven't noticed that I get a huge "JOLT" from the gum. I do drink a lot of coffee, usually done by 10 or 11 o'clock in the AM. That said, I do drink coffee while I play if it's in the AM. It hasn't affected my game yet, we'll see as I get older, LOLZ.

The pieces are large. In fact, they may be too large for some people. If you don't particularly like a large piece of gum, this product may not be for you. The flavor is spearmint, which usually is a "no go" for me. I'm not a spearmint fan, but the flavor of the gum is pretty good, not as strong as a lot of other spearmint gum products. The flavor is VERY long lasting, and the gum stays chewable for a very long time. In terms of the quality of the gum itself, it's excellent!

 

I sent an inquiry to the manufacturer regarding the “nutritional” qualities, and received a response very quickly.

IMG_4972.JPG

 

10 calories is a bit much for a sugarless gum, but the pieces are large, and the caffeine probably offsets that some, eh?

 

I will say that the product is a bit pricey, IMO. The box I received to test has (5) packs with five pieces each, and retails for $21.00 online, plus shipping and applicable taxes, if any. That may be the single biggest deterrent. If you like gum, golf & caffeine, I would definitely recommend this product. Give it a shot & let me know what YOU think!

Would definitely give it a try, but that price makes it a big negative.  I had some gum years ago in college that had caffeine in it but I can't remember for the life of me what it was called.
