On this episode of Club Junkie, Brian dives into the all new TaylorMade Spider Tour Torched putters and breaks down everything from the unique torched finish to the performance, feel, and roll on the greens. Are these Spiders just a cosmetic upgrade, or is there more to the story?

Then, Brian is joined by Luke Williams from Odyssey Golf to discuss the highly anticipated Damascus Milled putters. Luke shares the inspiration behind the project, the challenges of working with Damascus steel, what makes these putters so special, and why collectors and players alike are excited about Odyssey’s latest premium offering.

Whether you’re a putter junkie, gear collector, or just looking for your next flatstick, this episode is packed with insights on two of the most talked-about putter releases of the year.

The annual What’s In The Bag build is underway, and on this episode of Club Junkie, Brian breaks down the clubs currently leading the race for a spot in his 2026 gamer setup. From drivers and fairway woods to irons, wedges, and shafts, he ranks the equipment that’s performing best and explains what’s separating the front runners from the rest of the field.

Brian also heads into the workshop to discuss several putter projects currently on the bench. From head options and shaft choices to build ideas and testing plans, he shares what he’s working on and which putters could become serious contenders for the bag this season.

If you’re a gear junkie who loves equipment testing, club building, and the never-ending pursuit of the perfect setup, this episode is for you.

On this episode of Club Junkie, I put the new Tour Edge Exotics Mini Driver to the test and break down the performance, forgiveness, distance, and where it fits compared to a traditional driver or strong fairway wood. If you have been curious about adding a mini driver to the bag, this one is worth a look.
