I accidentally ripped the closure tab on the package of the glove I put into play and nearly cried lol. Will be taking that packaging to the grave.

I want to stop for a second and say some thanks to some people you guys did not get a chance to play with or posssibly even meet for this Grandaddy.
First, @NickMcCG you did meet him and he talked about the relationship for this Experience as well as overall. He is one of the biggest reasons this event has still existed and went out of his way during board meetings and other items to get involved and meet the team.

Second, @JeffNewtonCG He is a legend and a new Dad this year. Jeff is how we get all of our communications and is one of the best in the business. He was instrumental in the lead up to making sure myself, and @jdtox were prepared.

Finally @GordonGrayCG who I do not think you all got to meet, but he was burning the midnight oil in his office getting ready for this launch. Gordon is instrumental in bringing products to market and previous years has been part of the team at Callaway.

I got to play singles with Jeff last year. Text him the first day to let him know what a pleasure it was the prior year and how excited I was for Grandaddy. One hell of a guy. The support he gave me on Singles Day 2 last year was remarkable. Just a great dude who was amazing to compete against.

A club shifted essentially from the top of my bag in previous set up, to the bottom of the bag in my new set up.
Old: GW, 54, 60
New: A, 52, 56, 60

Old: 7W, 4H, 5i, 6i
New: 7W, UW 23*, 6i

It will be interesting to see what sort of gap is at the top of your bag since you took out 2 clubs and replaced it with only 1.

I've never rocked a bucket before. This on is just a smidge large. I am absolutely wearing it this year.

The path was there. We never said anything about not straying from it.

Why is it so jagged between the layers? Manufactuirng needs? Performance? Some combination?

That would 100% be a question I would have asked

Reading through presentation day and didn't see this one in real time, sorry @Scooby45. If it wasn't answered yet:

With the insert, they ran over 15,000 design iterations all in the name of optimizing forward roll. The one they landed on was the one that was the most optimized.

Truly incredible stuff.

I love that combo!

I completely forgot to ask...and maybe someone else already has - did you get the black Ti Fusion or the plated?

Played. I was going to go with black but I think they may not have that available for the 250s? My fitter mentioned that he wanted the finish to match.

I love this mix. Always fun to see how people formulate these two sections of the bag. I think the new way makes so much more sense than the old traditional way.

I went about replacing my 5 iron as well. Such a great change for me. I put the new new 5h in its place and honestly would consider laying up to a distance in the future just to hit it more often.

I’m convinced 50-75% of golfers should get rid of 5i for 5h and a lot of them should consider the same for 6h.

Counter point, 3 of the holes I won on day 2 were because I laced my 5i.
