Massive thanks to Titleist and the new GTS drivers for sponsoring this week's episode.

Another jam-packed episode for you this week as Joe takes us on a journey into the secret underworld of high-end, bespoke golf club fittings from some of the most exclusive golf brands in the world that you have never heard of. When the time is right, you will know...

We've got your Ask The Pods too, where we help one of you get fit for second-hand equipment, advise on cutting down counterbalanced putters and quell any rumours about 10k drivers being slower than other models. After all of that, we dive into the bag of in-form Cam Young. How much has his high-profile switch to a golf ball earlier this year forced changes throughout his bag?

There's a lot of golf equipment released year after year, and, if we're honest, a lot of it is very similar. With that in mind, we wanted to highlight the products that have been released this year that have offered the world of golf an actual, tangible innovation, moving us all forward. Thing 3D printing, bounce matching and sausages... Also this week, we delve into Brooks Koepka ending his relationship with Srixon, analyse the clubs used by the best women's golfer in the world, Nelly Korda, and Joe details why oh why he's decided to use a broomstick putter in his recent golfing escapades. All of that, plus Ask The Pods and a heated zero torque putter debate (again)!
