This week, Dazzler, Trottie and Bubs are joined by Rhett Taylor, Marketing Director at KBS Golf Shafts, as KBS officially plants its flag in the UK with a new office inside the Rocket Yard building.
They break down the Kenny Perry story that first put the red KBS label on the map, why Jason Day's switch to graphite is shifting how tour players think about shaft materials, and the stubborn, ego-driven stigma that still exists between steel and graphite - even though the performance gap barely exists anymore. Rhett pulls back the curtain on how shaft marketing actually works (and why KBS can't pay pros to play their gear), while Trottie shares a genuinely brilliant story about DJ's putter grip paranoia and explains why putter shafts might be the most underrated piece of kit in the bag.
Whether you're a serious equipment nerd or just curious what's actually inside your clubs, this one's worth the listen.
