Did anyone see the Golf Fix the other day on driving?  He got on the Titleist tour truck and had a little interview with their guy in charge of regripping.  I don't believe I've seen such a salty individual with such poor communication skills lol  Michael Breed looked like he actually got lost in the interview a few times and didn't know where to go with the dryness

It was one of the WORST EVER!!! It was almost to the point that it seems like he didnt want to do it. He kept answering the questions before Breed was done answering it. What a nightmare that must have been for Breed. OUCH

If the guy was in charge of regripping clubs, I doubt he really needs to have any significant social skills to be good at his job. I am not even sure why Breed would interview him.

My thoughts exactly.

You guys probably didn't see it then. It was a disaster. When agreeing to a interview and trying to promote your brand, it might be in your and your company's best interest to have a glimmer of interpersonal skills and amping up your brand's products. Breed interviewed him because he was doing an entire show over driving, and a integral part of hitting any club is having proper grips.

God this forum is probably takes the cake for dullest website ever.

alright, lets stick a camera in your face at your job. Keep in mind this is national television that hundreds of thousands of people would watch. He was just a little uncomfortable and gave one word answers, it wasnt that bad. If your expecting some elaborate poetic words from the grip guy on the bus then I dont know what to tell you,

God, this is the dullest comment ever from the dullest person ever. As my grandkids say, "whatevs!"

If the guy works in a fitting van performing club regripping he probably isn't from the sales and marketing department.  Part of Breed's job is pre-interview the guy and make sure he's interview worthy.  Either the guy got stage fright or Breed didn't do his job properly to begin with.

In either case what does that have to do with the website being dull?

To be fair to Breed, that's actually the job of the show's producer.      But I have to agree the interview wasn't Titleist putting its best foot forward.

Maybe he means the colors. Anyone in favor of bright pinks, yellows, and other colors? White, grey, dark green... I agree, somewhat dull!

    • 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.       
    • 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?
