This week on Off TRAQ, Charles and Roy tee up two of the most debated topics in golf.
First, they break down the pros and cons of the most popular putter styles: blade, mallet, and zero torque. Whether you're a feel-first player or chasing tech and forgiveness, they unpack which design might actually help amateurs sink more putts and why looks vs performance might not be as straightforward as you think.
Then, the conversation shifts to full swings: should golfers swing hard or swing smooth? They explore how swing effort affects performance, injury risk, tempo, and control — and whether a “Rory rip” or an “Fred Couples tempo” is better for the average player.1:29 Today's Topics1:54 What's Happening in Golf8:14 Which Putter is Best?32:23 Shoulder Golfers Swing Hard or Smooth?
