  • Jack Nicklaus' Clubs, Our Favourite Trainings Aids (And Why You Should Use Them) & Should You Use More Fairway Woods?
    Happy Friday, KPers. It's another hot one in the studio this week, so please forgive our clammy faces and flustered nature. For those who enjoyed watching the shaft wall collapse two weeks ago, we've got another treat for you this week, too...Onto the content, and we're starting with what should be a very helpful segment on our favourite training aids. What are the best and most practical ways of using alignment sticks to help you practice better? We've also got something of an Ask The Pod special this week, with three brilliant questions on fairway woods, wedge grinds, and zero-torque putters to get stuck into. Your questions have been getting better and better (and more frequent) over the last few months, so thank you for your brilliant correspondence that really gets us thinking! Finally, we're wheeling out the retro WITBs once again, this time focusing on Jack Nicklaus's truly fascinating bag. Joe had to do some real digging to find out the specs of The Golden Bear's bag, which includes a three-wood with a 30-year-old tar (yes, tar) grip and irons grinds so specific he barely ever changed clubs.

  • Sepp Straka's Clubs, Maxfli XC2 Iron Review & Do Taller People Really Need Longer Clubs?
    Happy Friday, folks! Another busy episode for you this week. To start, we've got a brief chat about Bryson's new LA Golf irons and why he hasn't been quite able to settle into them just yet, as well as a Tested This Week on the return of Maxfli and the new XC2 irons - are they the real deal in the player's distance category?Ask The Pod is back this week with some of your brilliant correspondence and a question asking us to debunk whether taller (or shorter) golfers really need longer or shorter shafts, respectively. Finally, we delve into the bag of Sepp Straka. Already with two wins under his belt this year, he's part of a swathe of Srixon staffers playing very well this year.

  • Collin Morikawa's Clubs, Rory's Driver Chaos & Are Stamped Wedges Cool?
    This week, Dan's been hit by two golf balls and tells us about his rich vein of golfing form, Joe's been on a diet, and the lads catch up about why Rory has struggled to find his driving game again after his driving was deemed non-confirming ahead of the Canadian Open. The Cool Board is back with wedge stamping, bag rain covers and big letter hats under the microscope. And finally, we dive into the bag of Collin Morikawa. What exactly is it that makes his grips 'like putting your hands in a NutriBullet, according to Joe?

  • Jimmy Bullard On His Love Of Golf Equipment, The Best Golf On YouTube & Why The Qi10 Fairway Wood Is So Good
    It's our birthday! Who'd have thought we'd have made it this far?! To celebrate, we're bringing to you what we have considered our most enjoyable interview to date with former Premier League and England footballer turned golf YouTuber Jimmy Bullard. Jimmy has never hidden the fact that he's a huge equipment geek, so we were very excited to have him on the show. Sat in the gardens of the Manor House is Castle Coombe, Joe and Jimmy cover everything from tapering on grips, swing weight vs total weight, Jimmy's club building cave and their theories behind why the Qi10 fairway wood has been so popular. But, before all of that, and to celebrate our first year, we take a trip down memory lane and highlight some of our favourite moments of the first year of Kick Point. You'll be hearing once again from the likes of Richard Bland, Ian Poulter and Wendy, while we also couldn't miss the chance to relive Joe's recent interactions with Bryson DeChambeau, either. If you're new here, welcome, and hopefully, these clips inspire you to head back into the archive. If you've been here since day one, a massive thank you from Dan, Joe and the team for supporting us in our first year! Here's to an even bigger and better year two!

  • Nick Dougherty's Favourite Golf Clubs, How To Properly Use Lead Tape & What Were Balata Golf Balls?
    Happy Friday, folks. Hope you're enjoying the US Open! To accompany your weekend of watching professional golfers hack it out of thick rough, we've put together 82 minutes of two 'professional' journalists trying to hack their way through an interview with former Tour pro and now broadcaster Nick Dougherty. Joe has some history with Nick from their junior days, and it's safe to say Joe was and is a big fan...perhaps too big. Once Joe stops fanboying at the start of our interview, Nick offers us some brilliant insights into the equipment he loved during his playing days, as well as some insights into the But before all of that, Joe takes us on a bit of a history and science lesson about Balata golf balls. What actually is Balata, and what was the moment in history when they started to fall out of favour? Spoiler, it has something to do with Tiger Woods...Chapters: 0:00:00 Hello! 0:02:55 What were Balata golf balls?0:07:21 Liquid centres in golf balls...0:10:28 Tiger Woods' early 2000s ball change0:25:05 Ask The Pod - Should I use lead tape?0:36:46 Cool Board - poker chip ball markers, custom ferrules & marking balls with initials 0:50:50 Fujikura competition!0:54:03 Nick Dougherty interview Also this week, we have an Ask The Podder keen to understand how to best utilise lead tape on their clubs, while The Cool Board sees poker chip ball markers, custom ferrules and initials on golf balls.  Hosted on Acast.
