This could be a risky move, if he makes another comment on how he "Hates his driver".

Opps, typing is not my strong suit.  Any idea how to fix that?

Never mind, I just fixed it.

I wonder what clubs he'll be playing next year?

I expect to see Cobra since they are still a sponsor.  Also, I expect he has been fitted, fitted, and fitted many times so any change would be more a tweak then a night & day change.

What’s the point? Cobra fits him every day and gives him all the equipment tweaks he wants. What’s he expect to get out of CC? A more expensive shaft?

He has options the average Joe does not have. I cannot expect repeated fittings from my club’s manufacturer.  CC’s target is not limited to the pros who have options I do not have.  

if Bryson believes fittings are helpful (I suspect he does) and if he feels CC does a good job he can legitimately say he recommend them, even if they do not do his fittings.  And he will be paid, good for him.

That's my point.  He's doing it for the same reason that CC sought out endorsements from Jordon Spieth and Hank Haney.   As long as they agree with what they're endorsing (even if, in this case, they're not really using it), there's no issue.  CC gets advertising endorsements and the pros get compensated.  It's not any different than any other endorsements for which the players are paid.

Speaking of endorsements, a Korn Ferry player that ended up in the top 25 that played as a youngster at my club, just recently went from 5 figure endorsement money to 6 figure endorsement money, simply because he is getting his PGA Tour card next year.  Endorsement contracts are a huge factor for players of all sports.

I am sure he worked hard to earn that, great for him.

I've known his father for 15 years and watched him progress from before he was in high school.  We're very proud of him here at our club!  Dylan Wu is his name.  Hoping he does well on the tour!

I’m going to speculate it has to do with his “brand”.

Yeah. Just seems odd being that he’s committed to Cobra. Who better to fit him for Cobra clubs than..well, Cobra?

Yes. I was referring to how Bryson appears to be so much more of a tinkerer and hands on with all this driver fitting he talked about. I guess he’s reviewed their process and likes it just as JS has done. I dunno…he’s still a douche. Lol.

He doesn’t need them to do fittings for him, though. He just needs their checks to clear 😃

Don't like Club Champion. Not a fan of Bryson.

Seems like a good match.

Heck I wouldn't be surprised to see Cobra dump him at some point soon. Not really sure he helps the brand at this point. Cobra really needs a new horse to hitch their wagon to.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Brendan Sorsby Sports Betting

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
