Episode Notes
Welcome back to episode 378 of the Chasing Daylight Podcast!. This week, the guys are heavily distracted by the Vegas Golden Knights playoff game, but still manage to dive deep into major championship week.
We preview the PGA Championship at Aronimink, look at the odds, make our picks, and debate whether the tournament should return to a match-play format. We also discuss the financial struggles currently plaguing LIV Golf, review some insanely long new fairway woods, and talk local Vegas course conditions.
In This Episode, We Cover:
- A look at the legacy and history of the Aronimink Golf Club hosting the PGA Championship.
- Debating Rory McIlroy's comments on Walter Hagen and whether the PGA Championship needs to bring back match play to create more drama.
- Analyzing why LIV Golf is failing and the reality of financial backers pulling their support.
- Reviewing the brand new Ti 3 and 5 Fairway Woods with the LIN-Q shaft, which are acting as total driver replacements.
- Putter talk: Discussing the switch to an Odyssey Jailbird plumber's neck and the great mallet versus blade debate.
- Updates on local Vegas golf, including course conditions at Las Vegas National and Wildhorse.
- Giving away the highly exclusive Garsen Golf "Philly Special" PGA Championship grip.
