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.

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!

      Day 34 (14 Dec 25) - Got outside for a few moments to work on bump and runs with the 4h (again using the exaggerated weight shift reminder of the left (lead) heel). Finding that it helps keep the downswing arc extended.

      Driver and Fw3 Swing Weight Changes, Make Sense?

      By BananaBomber · Posted

      I am currently playing a Cobra Ltdx LS 9 degree driver and Cobra Ltdx LS FW3. Both with Tensei White stock stiff shafts and original weights of 12g (heel) and 3g (toe). My miss is usually a pull fade or sometimes a slice, swing is out to in. Driver swing speed about 112 mph. Grips are stock regular. Intended change: Driver: Switching to Tensei White x-flex one inch shorter which I suppose would be 44,5? Changing heel weight to 18g. Changing grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Change hosel setting to standard draw. FW3: Changing heel weight to 16g (apparently not available in FW weights, but supposed to be something called "internal weight" a club builder can add which fits between the weight and the screw?). Change grip to Golf Pride Z-grip cord midsize. Changing hosel setting to standard +1. The goal is to 1) get better grip since I tend so lose grip in warm and moist conditions with the current grips and 2) mitigate the misses to start more straight with less side spin. Also considering adding the Cobra Ltdx LS FW5 instead of my old Taylormade R9 and getting 14g heel and 6g toe weights with the same grip as the others and hosel setting standard +1.   All of the above is based on conversations with ChatGPT and, as everyone knows, it can come up with pretty much whatever but I spent a few hours asking about different perspectives etc and this was the recommendation. So, my question is basically, does it make any sense?   Thanks.
