Austad's Golf Insider - Tiger Who?
Golf needs a hero. We got really spoiled with the incredible run of Mr. Woods, we need someone else now to step up and take the reins. We may have found our new caped crusader in a clean-cut Texas boy named Jordan Speith. Jordan confidently banged a 28 foot birdie in during the sudden death playoff at the Valspar Open for his 4th win on tour.
Tiger Who?
Golf needs a hero. We got really spoiled with the incredible run of Mr. Woods, we need someone else now to step up and take the reins. We may have found our new caped crusader in a clean-cut Texas boy named Jordan Speith. Jordan confidently banged a 28 foot birdie in during the sudden death playoff at the Valspar Open for his 4th win on tour. He is now only the 4th player since 1940 to win multiple times before he’s 22. Sergio, Robert Gamez, and of course, Tiger are the other 3. Ranked 6th in the world, he’s actually ahead of Tiger in ranking and age. To top off the perfect hero roll, he’s a really nice guy, dating his knockout high school sweetheart. I’ll start sewing the cape.
Hot Trends for 2015.
It’s still early in the season, but we are already seeing some real equipment winners in the custom fitting bays of our customers. The Ping G30 is winning a lot of head to head match up’s with our customers, followed closely by the new Callaway XR woods. Watching Bubba bomb drives close to 400 yards every Sunday doesn’t hurt. Cobra also has another winner with their Fly Z woods. The early iron winners are Mizuno and Callaway again. They are solid clubs that can easily be fit to any swing. What’s the right club for you? Stop by your local Austad’s and find out. With the incredible launch monitor technology, we can not only find the right clubs that fit your swing, we can adjust them to maximize your distance and accuracy. This could be your year!
