Bryson ready for golf...or MMA?

Spuzz

Rickochet It lets the lads swing freely

It also hides the sound of a crappy driver.

Ahem gentlemen - back on topic...Bryson.

Was looking at his WITB and had to laugh that the name on his graphite iron & wedge shafts are "Rebar" (protoype) by LA Golf.

I know some shafts have had that reputation but LA Golf seems proud to wear it!

did you hear Faldo talking about Bryson needed to go back to steel shafts in his wedges? He thought that’s why he was air mailing the greens? Lol

HybridWood

colej I did hear that. That comment was from another era. I read that the Rebar prototypes DeChambeau uses are one flex stiffer than a Dynamic Gold Tour Issue X flex!

I wonder how much feel difference there's in the 10grams lighter the wedge shafts for him ?

Lighter = longer ? Possibly. Heft matching ? I would think he'd been through that phase...

HybridWood

Eguller Hmm...I interpreted the article to be reporting that the Rebar shafts are 10 grams lighter in comparison to the DGs, and assuming the Rebar shafts were the same in the irons and wedges.

The specs on his set before going to the lighter weight grips were crazy heavy 37.5", ~ 285g heads, and the JMax Tour grips @ 105g....must have felt like sledge hammers.

The GolfWRX WITB article on the front page says he's using the Tour grips. But no elaboration so who knows. If he has switched back to them, that would be the first I've seen about it.

ode

DonM he's using the Ultralites.....could see one of the close ups over the weekend as well as on the witb shots on wrx.....got the blue and red graphics on em-

ode

Interesting he has two 3 woods 12.5 * and 14 *, and then goes to a 4 and 5 utility, and 6 - PW one length, and 3 wedges. Would love to know the specs on the utilities! Are they the same specs as the one length or does he have them built longer?

Probably got a pretty big gap from the second 3w to the 4u.....but then again he can hit 8i well over 200 yards......when is he gonna have 260 into a green lol.

I already mentioned this a while ago.
It's not the pizzas doing it.

That's a bullshit headline. Everybody I know who's into golf is asking that question.

Spuzz Do not make me post a pic of my own body, just to show you how PEDS is not a necessary thing in order to have such a magnificent physique, and strength.

ode

Let's just hope he learned something from TW and will be able to keep the sleezy ho's away! Other than that, keep on shooting up Bryson😏

ode

Also probably explains why he had a "Sergio" like temper tantrum after a poor bunker shot and confronted a camera man for catching it on camera. Golfs version of roid rage 💪

I'll give him a couple years, tops, before he completely blows his back out swinging that hard. But it's fun while it lasts.

See Tiger, Jason Day, etc.

garyt1957

Not sure why he'd blow his back out. Lots of the LD guys swing harder and they don't seem to have a ton of injuries?

If his back can carry that giant head around, I say he will be fine.

It is not just the back that can break down - lots of tendon issues, tears, joint issues....don't ask how I know. 😅

The point is Bryson isn’t leaving anything in the tank. He’s going at it as hard as he can.

And no disrespect to the long drive guys, but they’re not tour pros who average 5-6 rounds per week during the season.
Anyway... we shall see.

garyt1957

PA-PLAYA I don't know the practice schedule of a long drive guy but I imagine they hit balls multiple times a week. And they're not hitting any wedges, it's all driver all the time. Like you say, we'll see.

azgreg at's a bullshit headline. Everybody I know who's into golf is asking that question.

I wondered about that headline myself but the writer says in the article....."I have no evidence and have never met the man. I'm not accusing, I'm just asking -- how is this possible?"

Why is not GolfChannel talking about it? Everyone I know that knows much about golf surmises that putting on 20 lbs. of muscle mass = PED_HGH etc. GolfChannel and other media afraid to talk about PED's on the PGA?
