Jack Nicklaus' Clubs, Our Favourite Trainings Aids (And Why You Should Use Them) & Should You Use More Fairway Woods?

1 hour 19 minutes

Happy Friday, KPers. It's another hot one in the studio this week, so please forgive our clammy faces and flustered nature. For those who enjoyed watching the shaft wall collapse two weeks ago, we've got another treat for you this week, too...

Onto the content, and we're starting with what should be a very helpful segment on our favourite training aids. What are the best and most practical ways of using alignment sticks to help you practice better? We've also got something of an Ask The Pod special this week, with three brilliant questions on fairway woods, wedge grinds, and zero-torque putters to get stuck into. Your questions have been getting better and better (and more frequent) over the last few months, so thank you for your brilliant correspondence that really gets us thinking!

Finally, we're wheeling out the retro WITBs once again, this time focusing on Jack Nicklaus's truly fascinating bag. Joe had to do some real digging to find out the specs of The Golden Bear's bag, which includes a three-wood with a 30-year-old tar (yes, tar) grip and irons grinds so specific he barely ever changed clubs.
