I got to test out the new OVVIO driver shafts from Gears Golf. Gears created a shaft lineup to work with players’ swing types using their high-tech data. I have my hands on both the OVVIO Blue and Green profiles to compare and contrast the two. Both are 6 Stiff models, but they feel completely different. The filament-wound construction makes them seamless and very consistent. The Blue profile is a little softer and offers a straight shot bias, while the Green is a stiffer feel with more of a straight-to-draw bias flight.

Every year, we see tons of limited-edition Masters-themed gear from brands big and small. In the second part of the show, we break down some of the great items from some of the big OEMs. We take a look at some of the awesome staff bags from TaylorMade, Ghost, Callaway, Cobra, and Srixon. So many of the designs take legendary colors or objects at the Masters as influences for their look. We always see some great floral details that pay homage to Augusta National’s history as a nursery before it became a golf course.

To hear the full review on the shafts and more details on the Masters gear, take a listen to the Club Junkie Podcast!

Club Junkie: Ping i540 irons review + L.A.B. VZN.1i putters and Graphite Design shaft sightings

Published

on

On this episode of Club Junkie, I dive into the brand-new Ping i540 irons and talk about where they fit in the lineup, their performance on the course, and who I think they are really made for. There is a lot to love — and maybe one complaint in the new i540 irons.

The show also covers the new L.A.B. VZN.1i putters that have started showing up, plus some new Graphite Design Tour AD shafts spotted out on the PGA Tour and what makes them interesting. Wrapping things up, I might swap a few shafts into some putters and talk through how those changes might completely alter feel and performance.
