Direct to Consumer Golf Clubs: Are Sub70 and Takomo Right for You?

About this episode

The episode discusses the rise of direct-to-consumer golf clubs and debates the ideal roommate for golf trips.

We've all fallen for the slick ads — this driver, these irons are all that stand between you and greatness. This week, the fellas break down the booming world of direct-to-consumer clubs, separating the hidden gems from the internet scams. Before that, Nick and Joe settle the ultimate golf trip debate — the ideal roommate. And stick around for a Mad Golfer of the Week whose speaker went missing on the course under very suspicious circumstances. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
