TWEET OF THE WEEK
@karin_sjodin: "The guy next to me bought two tickets for this flight - one for him and one for his cello. Does that work for golf bags too? #NoLostClubs" -- LPGA Tour player Karin Sjodin
Aldila Golf
@AldilaGolf Aldila captures wood, hybrid shaft manufacturer counts on PGA Tour to remain #1 http://hub.am/q7Q262
Odyssey Golf
@odysseygolf The winner of this week's PGA Tour event shot a final round 64 to win the event and the season money title with a White Hot XG #7H Putter.
John C. Rudolph, PGA
@jcrpgapro Hybrid vs. Fairway wood (same loft). The fairway wood will produce a higher ball speed, more spin, & thus greater distance than the hybrid.
OCTOBER 22
Kirk Oguri, PGA
@KIRKOGURI Only differences bet AP1&AP2 is CG more out on toe on AP1, and AP2 is forged carbon steel. Similar ball flight, distance. Oh, and the price
@KIRKOGURI MB easier to draw due to CG closer to heel. Thus why I don't play a blade. I really liked the CB. Great feel, look, performance
@KIRKOGURI @ @DSpogolf u don't compress an iron off the turf either. The ball is immediately rebounded away with the given loft of the club face
Meredith Duncan
