And you thought regular chess was hard. Three Man Chess ($TBA) switches the ancient game from a square board to a round one, making room for a third set of pieces — gray, in this case — and opening up a whole new world of possible moves, strategies, and ways to get beaten when you least expect it.

We doubt you're going to end up getting into a soccer match on the course, but that doesn't mean you can't look the part with these Adidas Samba Golf Shoes ($100). Based on the classic Samba sneaker, they feature Thintech technology to bring your foot closer to the ground for improved stability, a water-resistant, synthetic leather upper, rubber-wrapped midsole cushions for shock absorption, and a six-spike outsole design for excellent traction. Available in the classic black/white, blue/white, and white/black colorways.
You know the Yankee Candle store — it's that spot in the mall that bombards you with the smell of flowers, baked goods, and seaside goodness in such a way as to wind up smelling more like a retirement center than anything you'd actually want in your home. Until now, that is. These new Yankee Man Candles ($18-$28) overpower those comparatively feminine scents with manly concoctions like the grassy Riding Mower, the woodsy 2x4, the leathery First Down, and the musky Man Town, any of which are far preferable to help hide the scent of booze and fried food emanating from your man cave.

Fine cigars go great with bourbon — but what about a bourbon cigar? As it turns out, they're pretty great too. Maker's Mark Cigars ($8-$11) are made from long-leaf tobacco grown in the Dominican Republic, and are "aromatically enhanced" by the Maker's, giving them a terrific flavor without ever having touched the bourbon. As an added bonus, they arrive in glass tubes that have been hand-dipped in Maker's signature wax, making the containers airtight, humidification unnecessary, and these cigars absolutely perfect for the golf course.

Bourbon meets bacon in this curious condiment. Jim Beam Bacon Mustard ($19/6-pack) is made using Jim Beam, adding a subtle bourbon flavor to the mustard, which mixes perfectly with the smokey, delicious bacon flavor. Warning: placing this on a beer-cooked brat might cause the universe to implode from boozy, meaty awesomeness, so use with caution. [Scouted by Ryan]
Finding a 40-year-old ride that's as good as new? Extremely difficult. Finding one that's even better than when it rolled off the lot? Nearly impossible. Yet that's the case with this lovingly restored 1972 Datsun 240Z ($125,000). Coated in an attention-grabbing lime green, it features a 100% stock interior in perfect condition thanks to every piece having been replaced or restored, a body that's been completely restored by the experts at Miller Brothers Hot Rod Barn, a suspension that's full of upgrades from Arizona Z Car, and a lightweight SR20DET engine that's been tuned for two settings depending on your mood: 320 hp when you're cruising, and a raucous 437 when it's time to do some real motoring.

Why do they call it "Widow Maker"? We'll get to that in a minute. Powered by a 5.4L supercharged V8, the UBB Widow Maker 1100 Mustang ($135,000) pumps out a crazy 1,100 hp, good for a 0-60 dash of 3.7 seconds and a top speed of 230 mph. Other custom features include a full carbon body kit, 19-inch black alloy wheels, Brembo brakes, Advan traction control, and available Recaro seats, de-cat pipes, and built-in laser jammers. So back to the original question — they call it "Widow Maker" because if you're not careful, it'll live up to its name.

Are they hot? Sweet? Actually, they're a little of both. These Evil Hot Gummi Bears ($8) are infused with habanero chillis, but still retain a fruity flavor that complements the heat perfectly.
