We're practising gratitude this week at KPHQ, so thank you for downloading this week's episode amidst the glut of golf content that exists in the world. With Tour golf back and equipment season in full swing, it feels like golf has woken up again after a quiet few weeks over Christmas and New Year. With that in mind (and the fact we only filmed this episode on Wednesday), we thought a mini Tour Issue would be in order. We've got our reactions to Marco Penge's switch from Mizuno to PXG, the news that Rory McIlroy is no longer a blade man, the Ping prototype mini driver and Erling Haaland's bizarre golf vlog he put on his YouTube channel.
After that, it's the next big release of the year: Callaway Quantum. Joe has hit all four of the new models and is very impressed with what he's seen so far. We put his favourite model of the Quantum range up against his favourite driver of the year (so far), Qi4D core, to see how the data stacks up. We've also got some of your brilliant Ask The Pods this week, including one enraged listener who is fed up with golf equipment marketing and another listener seeking some mini driver advice. Enjoy!
