  1. I'll fully admit to full-on Ping bias for as long as I've been playing but mostly due to how much I enjoy playing them. I've recently developed the same affinity for PXG because I think their DTC model is fantastic and a great way to buy clubs and my switch to their driver (and going through their fitting process) changed my game dramatically. My Ping Fairway and Irons have been a mainstay in my bag for going on 10 years For wedges, I'm always pro-Vokey and have loved the 2 that I've owned. Putters, Ping used to be the king for me but Odyssey, Scotty, Evnroll have all jumped up my bias meter Titleist and Ping have always been among the best all-round brands from a perception/bias standpoint. I don't really have any true 'negative' brand perception but definitely think certain ones aren't 'me' - Honma & Wilson to name two... But I can't say I have a negative view of any of the 'Big 5' brands I've definitely become strongly opposed to buying equipment off the rack going forward. In the clothing space, Bias toward Travis Mathew, Peter Millar and Adidas. Nike from head to toe has never fit me well so it's more a 'not for me' than a negative connotation...
  2. I wish the article would've explored additional tee heights. I use the professional tee system 3 1/4" (blue) and previously used the 2 3/4" (yellow). My longest drives came from the 2 3/4 but I was way more inconsistent - everything from topping to pop-ups to 90 deg slices. In a perfect world, I'd get with a coach and develop a swing that grooved me hitting up on a 2 3/4" tee. Longer facilitates up AoA and finds me (a couple of) more fairways...
