Happy Friday and thanks for downloading this week's classically jam-packed episode. This week, we discuss the latest equipment releases, starting with the new Srixon ZXi irons and ZXi RKT driver family. Are Srixon's new technologies (and subsequent lack of change from the last generation) proof that we're finally at the end of history when it comes to drivers delvoped under the current equipment rules? After that, we also explore the future of golf retail, exploring custom 3D-printed irons and we dive into the mailbag in Ask the Pod, covering topics like ball fitting, the debate on lake balls versus winter balls, and gap management for game-improvement irons. Finally, stick around for an exclusive interview with three-time Major champion Pádraig Harrington, who shares his ever-insightful and considered views on the proposed golf ball rollback, his setup quirks, and stories from his career - enjoy!
