It isn't just about distance; it's about feel, control, and staying in play. By the end of the round, it’s Cut Down Day. Two of these brands didn't make the grade and are officially out of the bag.In this episode:The reality of playing with a bad back and limited mobility.On-course testing and honest feedback on each ball.The "Cut Down" reveal: Why I eliminated two major brands.I’m not a pro, and I’m not a coach—I’m just a guy trying to play better golf without changing my swing.
