Bryson DeChambeau WITB: shot at 2016 Arnold Palmer Invitational

Cobra seems to go after the guys with different hats. Bryson (limo driver/ Payne Stuart), Rickie (flat bill), Gred Norman (Greg Norman hat), and Jesper P.(80's Tour de Frane rider).

Love this kids swing. I love seeing someone play with something out of the norm. Hope he does well. B

[dcrocketman]

clubs are reminiscent of moe Normans

Bryson's hat is a tribute to Ben Hogan.

Did Hogan play Puma?

Serious question? Puma wasn't even around when Hogan was playing.

Puma started/spun off from Adidas in the 40's, due to a family feud. I wonder how many pages the WRX thread was back then discussing the break up and new company.

Didn't realize that, thanks. They didn't acquire Cobra until 2010, just a few years after Hogan stopped playing. Haha

There is a great video of DeChambeau on ESPN.COM right now.

When will the new Edel irons be available? Do you think they will custom make build these sets for consumers. Including brass weights etc...

[BigPete]

He clearly got the idea of the same length irons from House, from when he was english and living in the 30s with Stephen Fry

 

[Cameron Circle T]

Apparently he's going to announce his sponsor at 4PM ET today from Harbour Town - told one of the reporters when asked if there would be a logo on his hat...

[golfpunk59]

Looks like hes playing the B330-S wearing Bridgestone gloves. According to my email from Bridgestone.

I wonder if Edel will ever release that Brick putter Bryson uses? Ugly but interesting..

It already is available on their website.

Is the official name of the putter called the E3 torque balance?

Thanks for the link!

To me there is no doubt that this is by far the most interesting set of clubs on anywhere. I love how he approaches the game of golf. His method has the trace of genius, eventhou it might seem all too mechanical or lab-planned...to me it is very artistic to come up with a method like this to perform something like golf..

long life to Bryson!

 

Genius!? He's doing nothing that hasn't been done before.

 

yes! Genius...because he is doing it in his own way...which to me is the only real secret there is in golf. Finding for yourself the things that will make you improve

i am not comparing it to anyone...just as I would never compare Leonardo DaVinci with Diego Velazquez...or say that what Velazquez did already had been done...of course there were paintings done before them...just as golf had been played on unique styles before Bryson did...

 

I will say it again: I think his approach on golf is very artistic and genius-like. People who do something never done are usually called innovators, and I guess that is what you thought I was referring to. It was never the case

[Obsessed]

whatever works!

[WidespreadPanic]

I can't stand this guy. He says everybody else on tour is taught to swing like a robot. HE is the DEFINITION of a robot. He swings in a damn machine to make sure every swing with every club is the exact same. He has a yardage book that shows every distance for every degree of swing. Uhg.

. I think he's a different character and I don't think that is a bad thing. If you can't stand him just based on him going against the norm or being prepared then that says a lot about your character. This is about his bag anyhow not him as a person. Don't forget most of these guys are just kids. When I became a father I started to think about things like that.

I have read and watched everything about him that I've come across. I don't recall him saying anything like "everyone else on tour is taught to swing like a robot." Nothing even close. What did he say and where did you see it? I'm not looking to argue. If he said that, I would like to know.

He said it in his first press conference as a pro. It was during the week before his first PGA start.

Not sure if this has been posted but a friend shared this with me and I thought it was interesting. I didn't know he was like this about his golf balls.

Nice video.

 

The golf ball testing is quite well known :lol:

 

I heard it doesn't really major a difference.
