Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's the golf show on the ticket.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Thank you for spending your Saturday morning.
Speaker 3 (00:05):
With us visiting with the guys from the MK Golf Deck,
Keith Becker, Mark Valier, and Kurt James. I just saw
an ad a little while ago for the ping I
two forty irons.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
You tell me those are pretty good? Huh?
Speaker 4 (00:16):
Yes? Uh. In fact, I think Keith just fit somebody
in those.
Speaker 2 (00:20):
I have fit multiple people into those irons there.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
They are really good. But they're really good, really good. Yeah,
they're beauties.
Speaker 5 (00:27):
I mean, if you stand back and look at them,
they they're it's shockingly beauty, shocking beauty. To look at
him from the back, if you're standing behind somebody, they
don't look like beings.
Speaker 1 (00:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Is there any specific club that's the hot club right now?
Driver or irons or is everybody just kind of picking
and choosing different things that fit them the best.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Well, I think the I two forty is is really hot.
It's uh, you know, if you look at the loft
on their seven iron, it's it's fairly strongly lofted, but
it launches really really high and it spins a lot.
So it's kind of a unique club and I think
it fit fits a certain person. I'm really excited. I've
seen a lot of posts on social media the new
OZ that's coming out that's heel shafted. I think for
(01:08):
the people that don't like the center shafted sort of
lab hutter that that lingle balance center shafted look and
they just can't stand it. To have something that's heel
shafted I think is really really interesting. So I'm excited
to see that come out. Mizuno irons have been and
(01:30):
we're completely brand agnostic. We do not push any one
brand over the other. We just fit people as agnostically
as we can be. But Mizuno has had great irons
across the spectrum this year, from the player side all
the way to the game improvement side. On the driver,
(01:50):
you know, Ping is still the king of accuracy. I
think Titleist has probably the best overall driver. Every guy
in the shop just about is gaming a idlist driver
at this point in time. But Callaway, I think has
had a solid driver. The q I thirty five has
been kind of hit and miss, but yeah, there's a
lot of really really cool stuff out right now. What
(02:11):
makes the Titleist driver so good? Ball speed I haven't
seen any driver touch Titleist in terms of ball speed.
Speaker 1 (02:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
The other beautiful golf club that has just come that
Callaway has brought back the it's called the X Forged.
That is a gorgeous golf club. If you have speed
and you you're a pretty you know, high level player,
that iron is really fantastic. And also the new those
(02:42):
new the new Titleist irons.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
They have a whole new series now they're really fifty
and I think those are the numbers and fifty.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
And these club manufacturers have gotten to the point where
there's something coming out every few months.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
It feels like they it used to be they get bored.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Yeah, yeah, So there's a lot of new stuff that
just released in the last month or so.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
And I think the Tour, the Tour Spider, the Taylor
Made Spider putters that they're hard to be with the
long line as the ones that Scottie Shepherd Puss with
and Roy uh and Rory if you and if you
marry those with like I've got an l a golf
shift and uh what butter that I have the even
even roll number five. I think I thought you had
(03:30):
the V twelve V twelve Yeah, Okay.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
I heard I heard this stat the other day, and
I think it was.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
From somebody at CBS because they were doing the coverage.
Maybe it was Brandall Shambley on on life from.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
It was Brandle.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Since Roy mclroy started working with Brad Faxon, he went
from somewhere in the one fifties and stroke games putting
the sixth. And that's why he's had a better year.
That's why he's been in contention more, and that's why
he won the Masters. Even though he didn't necessarily do
everything perfect on the back nine at the Masters, that
number has increased exponentially that no one ever saw coming.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
I love watching a Deckie.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Wants Yama hit golf balls, but I close my eyes
every time he putts because I don't want to get
any bad habits to me. He may be the worst
PGA Tour putter I've ever seen because he's got four
footers that missed the whole. Now, I'm a big fan
of Scotti Cameron putters, and I used to have one
in the traditional Scottie Cameron, but he needs Brad Faxon
in a different putter fast because if he could just
(04:31):
put a little bit, I don't know that anybody'd ever
beat him.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
If you notice, if you really watch, there is a
huge majority of the players out there on the PGA
tour are putting with mallet putters, Yes, bigger putters with
lines and all kinds of alignment aids and this and
that and the other across the boaril.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
You know, lab.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
You know, even most guys that put with Scottie Cameron's
now are putting with the Phantom. Yeah. I definitely one
of those heads. It's just a lab. They're everywhere.
Speaker 5 (05:08):
I mean, there's nothing more beautiful than a circle tea
with a little line on the top or the dot.
There's nothing. I've got him. I've got him in my closet,
you know. And and I'm saving them for somebody to
buy from me for about six or seven thousand dollars
apiece if everybody wants them for nostalgia. Yeah, but you know,
there's nothing more beautiful than those putters.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
But there's nothing more beautiful than putting a three or
four of the scorecard instead of a five or six.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
Just you know. But they're hard to buy with and
they were supposed to.
Speaker 5 (05:37):
That putter that I have now with the l a
golf shaft and I've ever made in my entire life.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Can you teach somebody to put better? Absolutely yes to that.
I agree that brings up a good point. I would
I would highly suggest don't keep doing the same thing.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Over and over in sanity.
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Uh and I'm I'm I'm going to fall on the sword.
Mark saw something. Not that I get to play a ton,
but you gave me a little grip tip and it
has helped a lot. So if you're struggling with your putter, nowadays,
more than ever, there are so many other options. Counterbalanced putters, armlock, wristlock,
you know, cross handed, We've got li angle, balanced, zero
(06:15):
torque putters. There's so much out there. Try something different.
You've got to change up. You've got to get your
setup in a different place so that you can roll
the ball.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
I want to see.
Speaker 3 (06:25):
I like watching a Decky and when he comes to
the Texas Open, that's usually the group I follow, either
on Thursday or Friday, depending on when I can get
out there to see it. And if he makes the
weekend the same. But somebody needs to get him. He's
got a plenty of time off and he spends a
lot of time in Orlando, and a little bit of
time in Japan. But I'm sure that the guys that
Scotty Cameron can find him something that he can put
(06:46):
better with, because it's just I watched him the other
day and he missed three or four pots and Adam
come close.
Speaker 5 (06:51):
Right, I don't know, just as a remember this correctly,
I think you can. I have hung out of San
Diego a few times with with an instructor there that
works with Fedder Derek, and we were told by Derek
that Xander told Derek that he's not allowed to work
(07:12):
with anybody and specifically.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Yeah, correct, because.
Speaker 4 (07:17):
If he could, Yeah, I guess if he could learned
to pot, if he could learn'd be a world beating
I'm sure he would be.
Speaker 3 (07:23):
But there's other putting instructors. I'm sure Brad Paxson would
would would answer the phone. I mean, I'm pretty sure
Dave Stockton's not doing much anymore.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
He can, he can work with him a little bit.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
There's others out there that could do this, but whatever
he's doing is not working.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
All right.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
I've got a few other things to get to in court,
including the Rory controversy for skipping the tournament Memphis.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
We'll talk about that. Next, it's a off show on
the ticket.
It's the golf show on the ticket.
