Kick Point: The Golf Gear Show

We've got some classic blades and some more 'game improvement' options on the table. As well as that, Joe's conjured up a game of fantasy golf equipment - what bag of tricks would we like to...

I want to once again thank our sponsors for this week, Callaway. We’ve just watched four days of world-class golf and the big takeaway is consistency. The players who perform under pressure are the ones who can rely on their equipment, shot after shot. That’s exactly what the Quantum family is built for - drivers, fairway woods, hybrids, iron - the whole lineup - designed to give you more speed, m...

They’re designed as game improvement irons, which...
