You guys already know how much I enjoyed my putter fitting at True Spec Golf in Beverly Hills a few months back. It was on the same trip we did the Play With Pete Invitational for the first time at Pasatiempo Golf Club. And if all that wasn't enough we had something extra going on as well.
I wanted one of you to experience what I did at True Spec, and so we opened it up on twitter and Instagram to pick someone to get fit for a new putter as well. That winner was @JensenCollins3 (on twitter), and Jensen had himself a day, "I was ecstatic with the results and my best interests were always at the front of my fitter's mind."

Dynamic leader and Kohler Co. Executive Chairman Herbert Vollrath Kohler, Jr. passed away on September 3, 2022, in Kohler, Wisconsin. He was 83. His bold ideas and hands-on leadership transformed the plumbing products manufacturer founded by his grandfather into a global and diverse family of businesses synonymous with unmatched quality, creativity, and bold innovation. He literally put his beloved home state of Wisconsin on the map as a global golf destination culminating with the Ryder Cup in 2021.
Herb Kohler’s personal mission was to create delight. For him, there was no halfway. To warrant the “KOHLER” nameplate, a product had to be more than durable, functional, and attractive. It had to be joyful and memorable.

Pinehurst No. 8 will reopen Friday, Sept. 2nd, following agronomic and infrastructure enhancements highlighted by new TifEagle greens, fully restored bunkers with fresh sand, improved drainage throughout the course and the removal of invasive trees limiting views and inhibiting sunlight.
Additionally, the existing Bermudagrass turf on tees and fairways was “fraise” mowed to remove thatch throughout the course, tighten up lies and foster more rollout on tee shots. Fraise mowing is a highly disruptive mowing technique developed in the North Carolina Piedmont that effectively removes thatch, organic matter and soil from Bermudagrass in a single pass.

Miami, Florida-Garsen Golf announces Garsen putter grips are now available on the Odyssey Golf website as a custom grip option for all Odyssey and Toulon putters. Customers will be able to choose from 3 Garsen grip options; The Max Black/White, The Quad Tour Tapered, and the Quad Tour Non Tapered when ordering a new Odyssey or Toulon putter.
The Garsen MAX is the most innovative and unique of all the models of grips in the lineup. By using a square grip with a 45% rotation, the “front” of the grip now becomes an angled area perfectly fitting the players’ grip and creating a much more biomechanically efficient position for the putting stroke. Unlike a traditional putter grip, the MAX places your hands in a position so the palms face each other and the wrists are in a neutral position. It turns your elbows into your body and sets your shoulders back leading to a more one-piece feeling stroke.
Four years ago, BGT revolutionized putting with its line of Stability Shafts for golfers of all handicap levels by returning the club face to square at impact for consistently straighter putts. Now the new ZNE Wedges will do the same for your short game. ZNE Wedges are built with patented technology, work with any wedge brand, no practice is required and they deliver incredible performance.
Barney Adams, CEO of Breakthrough Golf states, “We are delighted to finally launch the ZNE™ Wedges. They have been years in the making and we plan to once again to redefine another shaft category with our patented technology. If you’re a player that wants more control in your wedge game or if you’re the player that needs more distance, you don’t have to choose, ZNE™ delivers on both”.
Jill McGill knows about disappointment in the final round of a USGA championship, and now she’s revisited the elation of victory. With the South Course at NCR Country Club at its brilliant and challenging best, McGill closed with an even-par 73 on a day when no one broke par to win the U.S. Senior Women’s Open by one stroke over Leta Lindley at 3-under-par 289 in her first year of eligibility for the championship.
“That sounds amazing,” McGill said when introduced as the champion. “I love the USGA. I've loved it ever since I got spanked in my very first Junior Girls by Brandie Burton. That was a welcome to competitive golf.”
They threw a party at NCR Country Club for the best of the best and everybody came. Swinging into Sunday’s final round of the U.S. Senior Women’s Open, all three of the past champions are in the mix. Laura Davies and Helen Alfredsson are tied for the lead at 4-under-par 215 with Annika Sorenstam, Jill McGill and Leta Lindley one back.

Nobody would have questioned Sam Bennett had he chosen not to return to Texas A&M University for a fifth year of eligibility. An All-American who finished tied for 49th in this year’s U.S. Open, Bennett had all of the recommended credentials to enter the play-for-pay ranks.
But he didn’t feel the timing was right. He wanted to graduate. He wanted to mature a bit more, and he enjoys being around his Aggie teammates. That explains why he chose to stick around College Station, Texas, this summer after the Arnold Palmer Cup in early July rather than chase titles on the summer amateur circuit.
Their ages range from 15 years-old to 31 years-old. Their World Amateur Golf Rankings (WAGR) range from Number 3 in the World to Number 1,202. And three of the eight remaining players are making their first U.S. Amateur start.

On Thursday, the rising fifth-year senior at Texas A&M took out co-medalist and world No. 27 Fred Biondi and No. 10 David Puig to reach his first quarterfinal in three starts in America’s oldest amateur competition.

My first time in Beverly Hills was a memorable one, and I realized very fast I've got some L.A. in my blood. Driving to my True Spec Golf putter fitting in Beverly Hills from Los Angeles took me through nostalgic, winding streets and the excitement was euphoric. It almost felt like I was in a scene from Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.
When I arrived at True Spec on Wilshire Blvd., I knew it was going to be a great day. Just down the road one way was Los Angeles Country Club. The other way Rodeo Drive. What I didn't know however was how damn impressive the fitting and my fitter Michael were going to be. I opened the front door to True Spec and the fireworks were about to get started.
