Transcript
00:00if zero talk was the answer that the marketing suggested is from some of the brands yeah
00:07every player would be in it for sure they're all actually going into spiders at the minute or a
00:12mallet putter yeah some with a bit of toe hang some face balance so what how are you seeing
00:17the way zero talks being adopted on tour affecting not affecting our opinion of it but like
00:22we're getting at is why not why not them using it yeah i think so on it's interesting on tour
00:29right so these guys are the best in the world at what they do right and they've got their using
00:35what they were using granted we've got the instances of people changing their golf swings
00:40try and get better which i think as golfers we all do uh we all want to find that extra
00:44percent
00:44tiger woods you know going from butch to hank haney back in 2001 i think it was after that
00:49incredible year trying to get that bit better it's like mate you just won you know almost every golf
00:55tournament you enter and you've changed coach like it's like what are you doing i think the
01:00putting is a bit like that where these guys have used toe hang putters or something with at least a
01:06bit of release um and so they would have to then weigh up right if it was that much better
01:12i think
01:13the switch would be instant everyone would just go yeah it's it's better i i'm gonna make everything
01:18blah blah blah however there isn't that that's not to say they wouldn't necessarily be better over
01:24time yeah but the time in which it would take them to get that much better is where does their
01:29golf go
01:30during that period is that worth it probably not because if it's a couple of months and you're you
01:35can't hold anything and you and you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel yeah it might
01:39be
01:40better than where you were if the ceiling gets higher but you can't see that why would you bother
01:44exactly and you i mean god like it's brutal at the top of the game it is brutal you look
01:49at someone
01:49like max homer it's like rider cup stand out in rome he won a couple of times that year one
01:55of the
01:56best players in the world last year like kind of just kept his tour card i know like just yeah
02:02and
02:02it's like that's how quickly it can drop off if you have a slight dip in form
