Update Aug 17, 2021: Here I have updated work by the MyGolfSpy group relating to their golf ball analysis. The tweaked the research by narrowing the parameter of the balls examined and restricted the scope of the analysis to Drivers, 8-irons and wedges. There did however keep the same swing speed analysis for the robotic testing of 115, 100 and 85 mph. There is also a report on the variables they used for the irons and wedges contained within the report. Below is the link to their 2021 report.

I would say the results are very complete and should be a great help the golfing community. In my personal experience I find that their work is on the money with data. I have seen consistent results in my game. The only thing I found in the article that the reader should be aware of is the selectable  results table near the end of the report. Here you much have the last 2 drop down lists read “Wedge” to the the results. See picture below.

Interactive Chart at report end

If you work your way through the report and look at the graphics included, every golfer should have a better idea of what ball their should be using. Personally, I have found that the Titleist Tour Speed Ball is the best for my game but I am encouraged by this test to at least try the other balls noted and see if there is any improvement in my game. Like the reports show, each has it pros and cons and a good examination of your game will help you on the course and in the pro shop.

As one can see in the article attached mallet putter have changed and updated their style and designs. We all understand that this is an annual process in order for each manufacturer to get his product onto the market.

Ever since I was introduced to Evnroll Putters at the PGA show I have been a real fan. Looking forward to revisit in 2022 and adding Axis1 to my must see list. (FYI: Odessey has always been there).  I have helped a number of the members at my former club make decisions on a new putter and this type of information has been a great help. Both articles have very good information for those considering a change in the process and equipment. The most significant change in the lists are the increased in costs of putters over time.

If you scroll the website you will see that I have added a special single product review for Axis1 putters which I am swapping back and forth with my Evenroll as the best putter on hand.

ALTERNATE TO LASER

Thanks USGA. We find that there appears to be a change in the use of measuring devices on the golf course during play. A summary of the full story is included in the related article below written by my friends at MyGolfSpy:

Arccos and the USGA

If you have ever used GPS system instead of a Laser unit, this ARCCOS system appears to be the answer we have been looking to discover. I have been using a hard copy distance layout created on my computer awaiting this decision from the USGA. We have all been statically keeping our shot information round by round and trying to keep it in our brains. Some have been transcribing and moving to spread sheets. With this decision there may be an elimination of the yardage book so meticulously maintained by tour caddies and players.

Personally, I consider this a good investment for those seeking help on the course. It will be interesting to see if each of the other system will step up and get approval from the USGA on their systems.
