Q: What’s the most shocking thing you’ve seen inside of a golf ball?

Good question. We’ve seen some pretty crazy things. So when we first started testing golf balls and started cutting them open to see what was on the inside, it was shocking.

When you bought a dozen golf balls, the assumption was that all the golf balls were the same.

We found things like ground up rubber tires inside of golf balls. We found steel wires inside of a golf ball. Incredibly off center cores, and just bad quality control from ball to ball.

Most people don’t know this, but there were companies just copying golf balls from the manufacturer and just stamping a different logo on it.

TaylorMade adds the Spider Tour X L-Neck putter to their retail line.The putter is the same model Scottie Scheffler is using on the PGA Tour.The Scottie Scheffler Spider Tour X L-Neck is available now at retail shops and online for $349.99.

About a week ago, TaylorMade released the version of their Spider Tour X putter that Scottie Scheffler has been using on Tour. You can likely find it online or at a store near you right now. But should you?

Normally, I pay very little attention to Tour player clubs.

Last time I checked, I did not have a “Tour-level” swing. It seems unlikely that a Tour player’s hard-stepped X-flex driver shaft is going to improve my game. As such, I don’t spend much time exploring What’s in the Bag? type of information.

Obviously, I’m not talking about Tour player putters, though. Tour putter usage fascinates me.

The putters used on the professional tours tell so many stories. Some putters have been in the bag since the player was an amateur. Other players have a new putter in the bag every week. Tour players’ putters may be unique creations from their sponsoring manufacturer or off-the-rack finds from the local Golf Galaxy.

I’ve searched far and wide to find the perfect pair of golf shorts. One pair to rule them all.

On my long journey to acquire the best golf shorts on God’s green earth, I’ve come across quite a few suitors. lululemon, Vuori, Johnnie-O, to name a few. Each has tempted and tried to pull me away from the journey. Alas, none has been successful. My mind has stayed focused on the task at hand;:finding the best of the best.

After nearly 18 months of searching and drowning myself in seven-inch shorts, I think I’ve found the perfect pair.

Well, almost perfect.
