Ping i540 vs TaylorMade P790! Which Players' Distance Irons Is The Best? Plus, Christina Kim On The Lessons We Can Learn From Women's Pro Equipment & Can You Raw Your Own Irons?

from Kick Point: The Golf Gear Show

Another jam-packed episode this week, if a little shorter than last week's feature-length chow down. Firstly, we're putting the latest players' distance iron to hit the shelves up against the GOAT of the category. Can the Ping i540 come close to knocking the TaylorMade P790 off its perch? We've got some of your excellent questions to get through too, as one listener wants to know if he can raw his own irons by taking the protective coating off. Based on Joe's answer, let's hope he hasn't pulled the trigger on that process yet...After all of that, we're welcoming (for the second time) one of our favourite people in the industry, Christina Kim, onto the show. After she popped up for a quick Ask The Pod in an episode a few weeks ago, we thought it best to sit her down for a proper interview. It's a wide-ranging chat where we take a quick peek at her equipment, compare the equipment used by female professionals to that of male amateurs, analyse dropping the equipment ego, and dive into the reasons why she thinks both men's and women's European teams have created better atmospheres at Ryder and Solheim Cups in recent years. Expect plenty of innuendo and plenty of bleeping...Enjoy!Take part in our GolfClub4Cash questionnaire for a chance to win a £1000 GolfClubs4Cash voucher: https://futurenet.questionpro.eu/GMxGolfClubs4Cash?custom1=KickpointCheck out Under Armour's new GLF Trip collection as seen on this week's episode: https://www.scottsdalegolf.co.uk/shop/under-armourWatch 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.
