This Bryson DeChambeau dude is pretty good. I forgot he was that weird physics nerd that determined having all the same length irons would actually allow him to play better and more consistent with his compact swing.

Dechambeau's irons are all the same length. Hmm.

edit: are all of his shafts cut and stepped the same way?

My fitter is playing single length irons right now, and absolutely loves them. He said he's got like 15 sets to build, and that Wishon is way back ordered.

It's a really neat idea.

Pretty sure they are all the length of a 9 iron, if I recall correctly. I mean, if you saw his second shot on #1 he was hitting a 4iron that looked like wedge length lol


Edit: Does anyone know if the Masters coverage channels on DirecTV have this featured groups stream? They usually have everything else from the website on there

Try clearing your browser data / cookies and hitting it again. Sometimes if you visit without the VPN running first, it'll lock you into a non-US cookie, and it defaults back to that info when you visit again, even with a VPN. Happens to me with the NFL all the time.

Man...both Dechambeau and the Chinese dude are solid off the tee, but their second shots and putts are just rushed. Pretty sure dechambeau just drove the ball like 340 and he didn't even look like he was trying

Don't think so, they look pretty quick right now and I think it rained a bit overnight too

Quite the opposite. Augusta didn't like Spieth opening with -8 and getting to -19, so the greens were at Tournament SpeedTM as of Monday.
