PGA Show 2019: Day 1 recap

Published

on

Our crew are on deck all week at the PGA Show in Orlando, and on Wednesday, the annual gearhead festival officially got underway. Whether it was through our front page, forums, or social media platforms, GolfWRX had you covered on Day One of the event.

Here’s a look at all of the content our team provided from the Major of the Golf Business on Wednesday.

Front Page

Day One of the event kicked off with our Johnny Wunder speaking to Bridgestone Golf Marketing Manager Eliot Mellow to discuss the new e12 golf balls and more. Check out the chat in full here.

We covered Daiwa’s latest GIII Driver which features a gold-plated face, high COR, and $2,400 price tag. Here is the lowdown on this bad boy.

Then it was Mizuno’s turn for a big announcement, and they didn’t disappoint. The company are set to release their latest RB Tour and RB Tour X golf balls stateside, the first time a ball from the company will hit the U.S. market. Find out all you need to know about Mizuno’s latest release here.

We took a look at the new Golf Pride grips for 2019. The Z Grip Align, Tour Velvet Plus4, and Tour SNSR are to hit the shelves in March, and you can check out all the details on the companies new grips here.

On Demo Day, long drive professional Jamie Sadlowski gave us a demonstration of his power, and on Day One of the show, the Canadian talked us through the clubs in his bag. Check it out here.

…before checking out the new latest designs and waterproof bags from OUUL Bags…

…and then snapping some great shots of the new TS-1106 mallet putter from T Squared Putters…

…and our boys also grabbed an interview with Fling Golf Founder and CEO Alex Van Alen that’s been added to our original story here…

…while on Instagram, our team captured Bettinardi’s BB8 TRI putter with its Rainbow PVD Finish and twisty neck…

…before snapping this contraption which, well, remains a mystery to me.

    Does anyone know where that Chinese take-out looking putter cover comes from? The one for the thumbnail of the article? Don’t see it mentioned anywhere or in the pictures. That thing looks sweet.

    If your Day 2 recap doesn’t include a stop at Club Pro Guy’s booth, you’re dead to me.
