    Pretty hard to knock Sergio out of ‘career prick’ title – but Reed certainly has.

    When DJ grounded his club in a shit zone spectators were allowed to walk through & stand in as part of the gallery, he got whacked & cost him the tournament because he failed to read the notices put up in the locker room & available to be picked up by every player & caddie STATING “EVERYTHING IS A WASTE AREA/HAZARD”…

    HE Should’ve known. He didn’t, he didn’t deliberately cheat or improve his lie.

    As an overly pampered tour player, with the same perfect Tour sand every week, he was NOT expecting to wind up in a footprint…OH Well….rule 35. Shit Happens rule…

    I’ve been to many annual rules clinics and for 20+ yrs things like spike marks, hitting a perfect drive dead center fairway & winding up in a 3” deep hack-divot no one repaired or 1/4 filled with sand – had always been denied by USGA Top rules guys as “rub of the green” – I asked again about mid fairway events – my ball plugged, I get to lift clean & place & 6 feet away, my competitor’s ball manages to ‘pop out’ but has a big clump of mud on it & ‘tough luck’- he’s gotta play that ball. The official reply was “Bad luck has to start somewhere”…?!? IN the middle of the fairway?!?

    Reed deliberately cheated and he knew it. Should have been DQ’d.

    Lost all respect for that cat.

A putter that I love and hate – Club Junkie Podcast

Published

on

In this episode of the Club Junkie Podcast, we dive into one of the most interesting flatstick releases of the year with a full review of the new TaylorMade SYSTM 2 putters. After spending time on the greens, I break down what makes this design stand out, where it performs, and why it has me completely torn between loving it and fighting it. If you are into feel, alignment, and consistency, this is one you will want to hear about.

We also take a look at some of the putters in play on the PGA Tour last week. From familiar favorites to a few surprising setups, there is always something to learn from what the best players in the world are rolling with under pressure.

To wrap things up, I walk through the process of building a set of JP Golf Prime irons paired with Baddazz Gold Series shafts. From component selection to performance goals, this is a deep dive into what goes into creating a unique custom set and why this combo has been so intriguing.
