Big news this week: Joe got a haircut AND gave up sugary drinks, all in one week. Turning to golf, we discuss whether traditional blade putters will ever make a comeback after the recent dominance of high-MOI mallets on professional tours, and we examine how driver head size affects swing speed and aerodynamics. We've brought head-to-head to head-to-head back this week as we look at four of the top game (shot) improvement irons: the Titleist T350, Cobra 3DPX, Srixon ZXiR, and Ping G440. Which will come out as Joe's overall favourite as he rates them over categories such as aesthetics, centre and off-centre feel, forgiveness, and peak height?We then wrap up this week with a What's In The Bag interview with PGA Tour star Collin Morikawa. Morikawa shares details about his shoe testing with Adidas, his long-term relationship with a TaylorMade SIM 3-wood, his reaction to Qi4D woods rolling over into 2027 and the story behind stealing his current Spider X putter from Kurt Kitayama's caddie - enjoy!0:00:00 - Intro & weekly catch-up0:03:50 - Will blade putters make a comeback?0:09:23 - Technique, unorthodox swings & UK vs. US coaching0:15:07 - Trottie’s custom tour build service0:18:11 - What is the best game improvement iron of 2026?0:38:25 - Ask The Pod: listener mailbag & gear nostalgia0:46:11 - Collin Morikawa: What's In The Bag interviewWatch us in FULL on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@KickPointGolfGet in touch with Dan and Joe and 'Ask The Pod' via our email: [email protected] up for the weekly Kick Point newsletter, released every Friday: https://www.golfmonthly.com/newsletter Get three issues of the Golf Monthly magazine delivered to your door for just £5 at https://www.magazinesdirect.com/kickpoint Hosted on Acast.
