Bridgestone Golf has today introduced the ‘Bridgestone Golf Experience’ — a new Augmented Reality web app that brings Tiger Woods and other Bridgestone Tour players directly into your living room, pro shop, or clubhouse.

With the Bridgestone Golf Experience, consumers can utilize an augmented reality web application on their smartphone to see and hear Bridgestone Tour Staff members talk about the Tour B model they play and learn why it might be a good fit for them.

“At Bridgestone we’re all about pushing the envelope of innovation. The new Bridgestone Golf Experience is a perfect example of this philosophy – players who try the new web app will be amazed at the quality of the experience while also being directed to the best Tour B model for their game.” – Elliot Mellow, Golf Ball Marketing Manager at Bridgestone Golf

To launch the web app, players can simply visit bridgestonegolf.com or visit a retail location that carries Bridgestone products.

At select locations a number of additional QR codes will also be available that not only launch the BGE app but provide unique content with the company’s staff players that is not otherwise available.

My Bridgestone Tour B dozen box or sleeve can be used to initiate the BGE app, and depending on which box or sleeve that is scanned, a different Bridgestone staff player will appear virtually and talk about the model they play on Tour.

For the Tour B X, you get Matt Kuchar, for the Tour B XS, you get Tiger Woods, for the TourB RX, you get Lexi Thompson, and for the Tour B RXS, you get Fred Couples.

To get the full Bridgestone Golf Experience covering all four Tour B golf balls takes about 10 minutes and can be enjoyed on any smartphone. You can download the web application now at bridgestonegolf.com.

Slab city on the Korn Ferry Tour — Lead Tape Report

Andrew Von Lossow

This week, we have our Tour Photographer, Greg Moore, on the ground at the OccuNet Classic at Tascosa Golf Club in Amarillo, Texas, for the 14th event of the 2026 Korn Ferry Tour season. With that, we see some great things in the Lead Tape Report as we roll into Amarillo.

Joel Thelen

Monday Qualifier, Joel Thelen is in the field this week. He has played on the Korn Ferry Tour for a full season in 2023, and he is back in action this week. A couple of clubs caught my eye this week in his bag.

First off: His trusted Titleist 816 H2 hybrid. This club came out in October of 2015, and it still remains strong in the bag. Also, take a look at this Odyssey White Hot OG 7, putting a capital S in the 7S model. This custom neck has some impressive lean for an arm-lock-style putter. The bottom of the putter is covered in tape for optimal weighting.

Mitchell Meissner

Taking a look at Mitchell Meissner’s bag this week, we have some great lead tape coverage. Top to bottom working from fairway metals, irons, and wedges. We can see on the short irons and wedges that there is tape at the base of the grip, adding a little counterbalance. Along with that, some tape on the short irons and wedges as well. Moving to his putter, he rolls the Odyssey 7 Bird putter. Meissner putts left-handed and strikes the ball right-handed.
