🎥Feature Video: Glow Balls and Swing Changes⛳

Golf is a wild ride—one moment you're striping drives, the next you're searching for your ball in the rough. In this round, I tested glow-in-the-dark golf balls, worked through a grip change, and tried to fix my short game.

From early morning misty fairways to some unexpected good shots (and plenty of bad ones), this round had it all. Can I finally stick to my new swing and avoid my usual disasters? Let’s find out!

Hit play and let’s roll. 🔥🎥

  • Chipping (0 SG, 0-25 yards) – No major losses, a small win.
