I want to announce live on the rickshaws golf show where is this gonna go that this golf club to my right. So if you're watching you'll see it if you're if you're listening i want to announce live a new quest for the open 2022 i honestly thought you were like rick i'm quitting. And i'm going to go. And try and do pga that's coming next.
Week um. But my announcement is this. And this obviously goes out saying that means that it's not a paid for thing clearly the ping g425 max 3 wood or i'll say forward family in my opinion i don't hear people's comments below so comment below if you're watching this clip or emails if you're listening this golf club is the best golf club that's been made in the last 10 years it's like a skydiving i have wasp yes i have i fired one off the roof a little bit come at the top. But honestly the dry i've got the matching driver and the g425 max for me this is the driver i'm talking about firstly is very forgiving it's the longest in the world. But it's very forgiving and the only downside to the driver i would say is i'm not a huge fan of the looks of turbulators they just just don't look that great i don't think they do anything either. For me i don't mind the looks it's the sound yeah. And the driver is quite loud. And sound so if anyone tries to the ping driver i wouldn't be surprised if most people love it but also a lot of people say oh it's a bit loud the [Music] they're three wood right so three was still quite loud. So it's a little bit tingy noise so if you're not a fan of that but the the flatness of the bottom i know you can't see this on on video but the flatness in the roof the flatness of the bottom yeah this is very impressive honest to god i've hit it. So much now it's so forgiving you know it reminds me of believable a little bit shape-wise the adam's tight line yes it does that flatness. So this got me thinking of a broader topic rick that's my shout but i think that is honest to god the best golf club that's been made in the last 10 years. So i've put a thing on my instagram story asking people to comment i want to hear your thoughts if that's not the best golf club which you may not think it is what is the best golf club that's been made in the last 10 years give us some give us some responses we've had a lot of people saying the taylormade p790 irons because they kind of were on the phone i know pixie candid it first. But they won the first hollow head designs by a a major brand that kind of incorporated distance and forgiveness but then.
The looks and feel of that player zions that is a great shout we've got a lot of people saying the um the taylormade m2 driver 2016 2017 iterations they were phenomenal they were forgiving they looked good they went a long way uh we've had a lot of people say two ball. But actually two bullets were not 20 years old now. So i know there's been iterations of two-ball launch in the last 10 years but ultimately that kind of innovation if you like is a bit older i've got the 20 year old two ball in the back currently yeah unbelievable. So let's be honest i think the two ball i mean it was a combination of feel that that white insert which wasn't new at the time. But just felt awesome with the simplicity of this these two discs the same size as a golf ball it's unreal a few people saying taylormade spider a lot of people and i think you'll agree this is saying f9 driver cobra f9 yeah i think that was a combination of performance with price with looks with a brand that was established. But also kind of felt quite new on the scene it kind of re-invented i'm sorry it reinvented itself cobia and it went from like an old man brand to quite cool again i think they lost the way a bit they tried to go too cool ricky fowler um. So there's been a lot of different shouts but honestly i know again so much of a golf club is personal. So you're never gonna find one golf club so this is kind of a bit of a silly question in a sense. But i think there is some clubs that just seem to be. So good and i think the g425 family in particular fairway it's honest to god it's class seriously it's. So good i still just my stool just sunk then.
And i uh suddenly had this envision that was on a roller coaster um. For me i agree with a lot of ones there but i'd probably i'm trying to think if i went to the driving range right now bumped into a group of guys. And they were looking at the golf clubs. And they were showing oh rick look look at this i've got in the bag what would have what would i literally want to pull out the bag. And go oh my god you've got one of these like that's probably that's the best golf club in the last episode another big shout out as well a callaway epic driver the first iteration um i i i probably um god this is a hard one it's hard to put a no a number one thing on it i'd probably go i probably would go m2 original m2 like if i saw if i went to drive range now. And a guy went although what drive we've got to pull out in that original m2 i'd be like oh yeah that is one of the best drivers ever yeah. And i still probably would give it original over the next.
Version i still just think the original was just just yeah do you think it's weird how like we know that there's lots of obviously rules in place by the rna in the usj et cetera about how far golf club technology can go. But yet there's still a product every now and again i.e ping driver this year it's great on the phone you know you're right the m2 was phenomenal sldr was good. But well i feel like that's where where like sldr was was very revolutionary. And the fact it was 17 degrees of launch 1700 spin. And then.
I felt like that was unmanageable. And then.
The m2 and then.
Ones were like okay we're going to embed a bit of work on that. But we're just going to make it a little bit more forgiving well that's the thing that's like yeah these come there's these things in place. But yeah they still can be products come out that change the game. And i think that's what is exciting why even though again most people listening fully understand that you know it's not gonna drive next.
Year that's only 20 hours longer it's not going to happen. But yeah every year could be that club of course another shout out in the break 75 that's coming soon i didn't have my club. So i borrowed some from the from the golf club and i had the new uh rogue st driver on the callaway rogue st fairway which are again phenomenal golf clubs i was very very impressed with them. And i think this year actually it's becoming a bit of fair almost like an overachieving year with golf clubs because when we saw stuff at the start of the year i was super excited just cheer go down again keep thinking i was super excited about stealth which again we've talked about before don't repeat himself on that. But this year i think we've still got the ping stuff this is current which again i keep talking about we've then.
Got this new callaway lineup that didn't excite us when it came out didn't look that different. But performs very well the cobra stuff again same story it didn't look that exciting but performed very well the back end of the edit we should have titleist again so it's actually one of those years where there's gonna be some really good products and it feels like there's a lot of drivers out there that offer forgiveness if you're after forgiveness this is a good year to my drive it's almost like.
