I'll be the first to admit this is a long time coming: @GolfDigest's gear podcast finally has a new name and dedicated feed.
Welcome to Club Lab 🧪
Same data-driven discussions on the latest gear, tour trends, and interviews with the people who matter most in the industry.
Kicking off our robotic iron analysis on the Club Lab podcast with a look at 10 of the latest players models.
@MizunoGolfNA's M-13 earned high marks. But it wasn't the only option that impressed in our latest round of testing. ⬇️
What does @TommyFleetwood1 have in the bag? Clubs, sure. But there's more inside the pockets that you rarely see. Here's a fun peek at everything inside his @TaylorMadeGolf staff bag.
Check out some insights on the gear and knick-knacks in the upcoming issue of Golf Digest.
.@OSUCowboyGolf’s Preston Stout won the NCAA individual title with a full bag of @Titleist gear.
Rarely do a look at what the best college players are using, so let’s change that.
Ball: Titleist Pro V1
Driver: Titleist GT3 (Mitsubishi Tensei 1K Pro White 60TX), 8 degrees
3-wood: GTS2 (Mitsubishi Tensei 1K Pro Blue 80TX), 13.5 degrees
7-wood: GTS3 (Fujikura Ventus Black Velocore+ 9X), 21 degrees
Irons: T100 (4–9; Project X 6.5)
Wedges: Vokey SM11 (46-10F; Project X 6.5), Vokey SM11 (50-08F, 54-10S; True Temper Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400), WedgeWorks (58K*; Dynamic Gold Tour Issue S400)
Putter: Scotty Cameron Phantom 9.5R Prototype
Finally shifting the focus to iron analysis from robotic testing. First up: players irons.
With a model designed for better sticks, there’s a complicated tradeoff that needs to be discussed. ⬇️
@JA_Humes Not all of these will be behind the wall, but it’s proprietary analysis. Sometimes have to pay to get the goods.
I have subs to plenty of websites that I support. Just the way original content is heading.
Been doing some work with our robotic driver testing data regarding ball speed and descent angle, and how strong the correlation is between the two.
Figured I'd share a graphic that showcases 47 models across eight brands. Data is tied to a new metric I'm working on.
Big change for Ludvig Aberg as he moves away from the blade into a @ScottyCameron Phantom 3.2 prototype putter at Colonial. 👀
Sits T5 and ranks 20th in SG:P (plus-3.376) with one hole remaining in his second round.
