I wanted to share a thanks and shout out to the folks over at Titleist. I’ve had fun being a part of Team Titleist through their discussion board and prototype ball testing (and just saw the article about protoypes going to retail -- very interesting). Last week I got a surprise email inviting me to a short game experience with the team from Wedgecraft. Too good to pass up!
The event was at the Manchester Lane Test Facility. It’s an amazing facility, and we had a brief tour that included seeing the ball testing robot. Someone was getting a full fitting there as well — that'll need to be an experience for another time. It’s an amazing facility that’s maintained with a painstaking level of care. No variable goes overlooked and it gave a good appreciation into what goes into product design there.
I hadn’t heard of Wedgecraft before. Doc and Layne walked us through their data driven approach to the short game, then we all got 1:1 time with one of them to assess our finesse wedge game. After I chunked multiple chips, Doc made simple changes that helped immediately, and followed up by email with a video of my swing with his commentary. I've got some serious practice to do...
I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention and say thanks for the swag bag. A seriously generous collection of TT gear and equipment.
My only regret is that I didn’t take photos! I’m not sure it would’ve captured it, but sorry to not have some green to show!
