In this week's episode, Ryan and Mike cover a lot of ground in the world of golf, club fittings, and new equipment - specifically the spotted prototype driver from Callaway.

The host continues the discussion from last week on Mike's lightweight wedge project, and the wedges he decided to put in play for the experiment, the Kirkland Signature - TXG Kirkland wedge review.

Spurred on by a question posed by My Golf Spy, the conversation takes a turn to dive deep into the topic of why professional club fittings aren't free, and the value-added to the golfer when they seek out an in-depth professional fitting. Both Ryan & Mike draw from their experience in the industry at and away from TXG, to cover this highly debated topic and give insight on why the phrase "you get what you pay for" holds true. 

Lastly, we talk about the PGA and LPGA tours, where golfers from the host countries won both events - Hideki Matsuyama at the ZOZO in Japan, and Jin Young Ko in South Korea at the BMW Ladies Championship
