The boys are still buzzing about the member guest weekend at candlewood valley cc. It was a good effort put forth but coming up just short definitely dished out some lessons. Huge week in PGA with one of the most epic playoffs of the year, Bryson is ridiculous per usual, and also they talk about Ryder cup as it nears closer and closer. Great week to be a golf fan, enjoy the ride.

We dive into Sik putters and their descending loft technology leading to the most consistent distance control of any putter on the market.. We discuss Bryson DeChambeau and the relationship that was built back in 2017 and how they are changing the way pros approach putting.
