Welcome back to regularly scheduled programming! We hope you enjoyed the Masters and our Tour Issue specials, but we're back onto our bread and butter topic this week: equipment. For the bulk of this week's episode, we wanted to answer one simple questions, are direct to conusmer blades the best value golf clubs on the market? Often priced at less than 50% of the bigger brands' rival blades, do they offer the same performance? To see whether the blade irons offered by direct-to-consumer brands really are the best value to performance golf clubs on the market, we put the best three head-to-head. Which of the Vice, Ben Hogan Ft Worth MB and Takomo 301MB is the best of the best in the DTC space? Also, this week, we debate whether blending a mix of graphite and steel shafts through irons and wedges is a good idea, and get a sneak peek behind some of the Tour pros who love shopping in the second-hand market. All of that, plus your questions and comments in Ask The Pod - enjoy!
