PGA Tour pro Wesley Bryan will line up at The CJ CUP Byron Nelson with two 4-irons in his bag.<\/p>\n
Bryan has replaced his 5-iron with a second 4-iron to supplement his Takomo iron array.<\/p>\n
The \u2018extra\u2019 4-iron is a Titleist T200, and the move has a lot to do with the yardage gapping between the two 4-irons he will be using.<\/p>\n
In Texas, Bryan gave GolfWRX.com an explanation of how his Takomo 301 CB 6-iron travels between 195 and 200 yards. Then, the Titleist T200 4-iron travels around 235 yards, and his new hollow-bodied Takomo 101U Driving Iron, which he started testing \u201ca couple weeks ago,\u201d bends about 2 degrees weak and gets about 220 yards.<\/p>\n
His Takomo 101U Driving Iron sells for $119 and Bryan believes there is a lesson for professionals and the average golfer in this shift.<\/p>\n
The Takomo 101U is a hollow-body driving iron made with players looking for an explosive, forgiving alternative off the tee or the fairway in mind.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s super forgiving and launches high, and it has a bit longer of a profile to where it looks really good,\u201d said Bryan. \u201cIf people are willing to play something that doesn\u2019t have an expensive price tag on their club, it outperforms the Srixon (driving iron). [I started testing it] in the last couple weeks and it\u2019s in the bag.<\/p>\n
\u201cI just made it like 2 degrees weaker. Basically, that gap from 205 to 225 I was in a little bit of a dead space, so I\u2019m going to try and fill that gap better.\u201d<\/p>\n
Learn a crucial lesson from Bryan\u2019s mindset on yardage gapping and club selection: performance and yardages matter more than club number or even price.<\/p>\n
Many professionals on the PGA Tour are feeling out some new equipment at the moment due to a raft of new releases with brand reps being kept very busy by their staffers.<\/p>\n
Bryan is also trying out a new L.A.B. DF3 putter which he fell in love with instantly.<\/p>\n
When asked how long he had tested the putter for, Bryan quipped: \u201cAbout 30 minutes, and it\u2019s going in the bag. It\u2019s so stable.\u201d<\/p>\n
Bryan and his brother George launched a YouTube channel where they share their golf trick-shot videos for a growing audience. They also starred in the golf reality programme Big Break The Palm Beaches.<\/p>\n
The brothers ventured into course ownership and renovation when they bought the Solina Golf Course in Lexington, South Carolina.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"PGA Tour pro Wesley Bryan will line up at The CJ CUP Byron Nelson with two 4-irons in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":9883,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3027],"tags":[2480,54,3139,4669],"class_list":["post-9882","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-takomo","tag-equipment","tag-news","tag-takomo","tag-wesley-bryan"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9882","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9882"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9882\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9883"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9882"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9882"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/golf\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9882"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
