In this episode, we are joined by Marty Jertson. Marty (@jertybird) is the VP of Fitting and Performance at PING. Marty played golf at the Colorado School of Mines and developed into a solid player, but decided to pursue a job as an engineer at PING. At PING he worked on PING’s aerodynamic Turbulators (Jertson is named on 125+ patents), and was lead designer on the Ping G410 Plus driver which included movable weight technology without affecting MOI, and counter-balanced shafts were an idea they created. Marty is also a great player, and has played in 6 major championships. Marty has also co-founded the Stack System and Ballnamic.
