I get to review one of the hottest shafts out of Korea, the Attomax Pro Atom Blue wood shaft! This $900 shaft features super high-end carbon fiber and an amorphous metal wire technology for added stability. I break down the new LAB Golf prototype putters spotted on tour. Reviewing the new Bettinardi BB Series putters has been awesome and I am really liking the new Variable Depth Fly Mill face. It feels great and puts a good roll on the ball.
Plus Pebble Beach impressions!

Paul’s journey in the game of golf is quite remarkable and has led him to the #1 team in NCAA Division I Men’s Golf and to being a Top 40 ranked amateur in the world. Through determination, hard work and grit, Paul is an inspiration and we hope this conversation will reveal the same thing to you.
Time to finally review the new Ping G440 K driver! Ping did a great job with keeping the G440 K super forgiving and stable while making it long. Great ball speed for a straight driver. Breakdown a few Scotty Cameron putters from the 2026 Genesis, including Hideki's latest flat stick.
Major Flaw in Human eyesight that keeps instructors permanently employed. Plus discussions on golf ball roll back, swing mechanics and golf drills! Enjoy 😃

This week I review the new 2026 Scotty Cameron Phantom putter line. I have both the Phantom 5.5 and 9R putters in-hand that I have been rolling for a bit now. The new SCS face insert offers a softer feel and I like the new look of the 9R. Callaway has a few new items on the USGA conforming list and I have two club projects to build that I let you know about.

Time to review the pretty rare, but very cool, JP Golf irons! I get my hands on both the Prime and Camber models for a little head-to-head comparison. Bot have great feel but play and look a little different. Is the Waste Management Open just a little to wild now? Part of me says yes and the other part says to stop being old. Finally we break down a new stamping method for wedges and putters.
Happy New year! We get everyone upto speed with what's new with wisdom in golf! plus an analysis on the new poster boy for WIG! Enjoy!
