Phil Mickelson's Clubs, Should You Ditch The 60° Wedge & What Is An Aftermarket Shaft (And Do You Need One?)

from Kick Point: The Golf Gear Show

Happy Friday, thanks for downloading another bumper episode! We start this week with the Cool Board. Where will golf speakers, groove cleaners and Sunday bags find their way onto the board? The Explainer this week sees us dive into aftermarket shafts. What exactly is different about anaftermarket shaft versus a stock shaft? And, is the investment in an aftermarket shaft really worth it? Joe explains all. Ask The Pod this week wants to know if anyone really needs a 60° wedge. If someone like Dan Grieve only uses his for emergencies, are we wasting a slot in the bag with a club that rarely makes an appearance and is hard to hit? Finally, this week's WITB sees us investigate the clubs of Phil Mickelson. Joe was due to interview golf's great left-hander earlier this year in Singapore, but sadly that got cancelled. Even so, Joe managed to have a little root around Phil's bag, so he has some brilliant insights into his current equipment. We also take a brief trip into Phil's equipment history - did you know he's the only player to have won a major with no drivers, one driver and two drivers in his bag?Get in touch with Dan and Joe and 'Ask The Pod' via our email: [email protected] up for the weekly Kick Point newsletter, released every Friday: https://www.golfmonthly.com/newsletter Get three issues of the Golf Monthly magazine delivered to your door for just £5 at https://www.magazinesdirect.com/kickpoint   Watch us in full on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KickPointGolfChapters:0:00:00 Intro and waffle 0:02:38 The Cool Board - golf speakers, groove cleans and Sunday bags0:14:50 What is an aftermarket shaft, and do I need one?0:28:42 Ask The Pod - Do I really need my 60° wedge?0:39:37 Phil Mickelson What's In The BagWatch us in FULL on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KickPointGolfGet in touch with Dan and Joe and 'Ask The Pod' via our email: [email protected] up for the weekly Kick Point newsletter, released every Friday: https://www.golfmonthly.com/newsletter Get three issues of the Golf Monthly magazine delivered to your door for just £5 at https://www.magazinesdirect.com/kickpoint   Hosted on Acast.
