š¤Æ One BIG Trick up its sleeve
Does yours do THIS?
Hi Golfer,
Letās make today Teaser Friday.
I saw something really cool yesterday that could help a lot of golfers play better, but I canāt tell you about it until July. Early July, but still July.
Thereās something really cool (or at least something a golf club manufacturer is really excited about) that youāll get your first look at on Monday.
No more teasers. Weāve got plenty of good stuff today, but on a more serious note, Iād like to call special attention to Seanās piece on the mental health burdens of professional golf. Itās incredibly relevant, given the events of the past week.

TOUR NEWS & OPINION
Letās Talk About the Burden of Pro Golf
We Can Just Listen
Growing up, my dream was to play on the PGA Tour. Maybe you had the same dream, too.
By the time I reached my teenage years, it became apparent that the game required incredible discipline and work ethic to be mastered.
As I got into the media side of golf, I realized something else: professional golf can be a brutal way to make a living.
What I take away from the past couple of weeks is that the negative side of that equation needs to be discussed more often.
Making a lot of money doesnāt mean the struggles that come with it arenāt valid. Of course, they are.
Normalize pro golfers talking about the mental struggles of pro golf. The rest of us donāt need to criticize them for being ungratefulāwe can just listen.

šµļø FRIDAY SPY TIPS
Does Your Driver Have a Hidden Draw Bias Setting?
If you own a driver with swappable front and back weights, you probably know that putting the heavier weight in the back will increase launch and forgiveness while adding a bit more spin (typically 250-300 RPM).
But did you know that putting the heavier weight in the back will often introduce a bit more draw bias (or at least less fade bias) as well?
Given the shape of drivers, the back weight position is typically closer to the heel than the forward one. So, while youāre not going to get as much help as you would with a driver that lets you put weight in the heel, the subtle shift in the center of gravity might be just enough to keep the ball from leaking on you.

Now Comes the Hard Part
Vegas Golf is No Gamble
The Zebra putters comeback is officially entering whatās known as āthe hard part.ā
The Brand Resurrection Playbook says that while Year One is no cakewalk, Year Two is when you either establish yourself as a legit player or fade into the obscurity of a nostalgia-based money grab.
Year One mojo, however, can take you only so far. A real putter company has the juice to keep developing new products as it builds its brand identity.
Is the reborn Zebra a real putter company? The answer might be found in the new 2024 Zebra Milled series.
