I were given to the Orange County Convention Center at 8:30 Wednesday morning. I changed into going to power over to OCN once I were given my badge, however decided in opposition to it due to the fact that I paid $14 for parking. I'm satisfied I didn't as site visitors to OCN changed into outrageous. So a long way, I turned into a bit disenchanted to the factor wherein I simplest made 1 journey around the variety. Not virtually tons within the way of innovation or certainly thrilling products obtainable.
There became a aspect referred to as 'The Golf Robot' that become very cool. It changed into a golf membership set up to a gadget.
Rumor has it that the golf robot will close down the strength of an entire city block when trying to reflect Jim Thorpe's swing.
Fourteen Golf has a few new blades popping out that look absolutely best. I like their new motive force as well. I also preferred the brand new Yonex E-Zone driver.
I experimented with a gaggle of various application irons. I appreciated Fourteen Golf's quite a piece. However, Titleist did now not have their new U-version utility iron which changed into thoughts boggling and disappointing.
PURE Grips has a new grip out that is meant to be their solution to the wire grip. It felt very distinctive. Kinda like a placing a car tire on a golf grip. I assume you are either going to adore it or hate it.
And then there was Edel Golf...
I tried their regular version and the Faldo version.
The Faldo version has a higher CoG. I hit it quite respectable. But, I became loving the regular model hollow space back irons. They look superb, little offset and that they sense first-rate.
They moved the CoG faraway from the heel a bit greater, however did not pass the scorelines faraway from the heel as a lot as they did with the wedges.
It's a unique looking face. It's now not exactly some cutting-edge/new wave craze, but it is now not exactly antique faculty in looks both. But, I cherished the manner these irons experience and how they performed. They have that high-quality 'thump' to them with out the thump being the divot and so much shaft deflection. They also can be offering a diverse quantity of customized alternatives just like the kind of toe design, pinnacle line, and so on. Very exciting and only a superb set of irons.
You're going to like the Torque Balanced Faldo Putters. These are more like a 'heel hold', immediately opposite of the toe dangle putters. Leaving the putter face open is not an issue with those putters. My preliminary impression was there wasn't a good deal to get overly excited about at the Demo Day outdoor of Edel.
The rest of the manufacturers had been no longer developing anything that changed into eye popping or innovative, but made experience type of product. I think loads of the publics desires are not being addressed by using those larger manufacturers.
OCN additionally did now not have professional caterers and that was a problem. I've observed OCN's team of workers to be extremely good each time I've been there, but they virtually weren't proper for the food carrier in this surroundings. The line become a great 20 minutes just to get your food. You had five humans operating, 3 others doing nothing however speaking. Problems with getting cash change, and many others. Overall a chunk disappointing.
Tomorrow is Tweet-Up 3.0 at the Brick House Tavern. And then Saturday I will hit up the show again and hopefully see some higher products I failed to see at Demo Day.
