Time has come. The points have been allocated, the points have been tallied and it’s time to announce the winner’s of the 2nd Annual Teezy Awards – PGA Show (Equipment Edition).
When the show wrapped a thought occurred to me. Actually, my thought was formed as early as the end of Demo Day where I thought “Damn, the 2019 product cycle is strong”. This would be a trend that would last right up until the moment that the Orange County Convention Center staff unceremoniously turn out the lights.
The reality is that there are so many great products that my finalists had to go to a Top 5. I actually couldn’t get the nominees down to a Top 3 and this was really noticeable in a few key categories. How were the winners decided? I delegated point out of a maximum of 40 points. In the case of equipment, points were allocated like so…
- Aesthetics (10 points)
- Performance (10 points)
- Sound/Feel (10 points)
- Innovation (5 points)
- Price point (5 points)
I also feel the need to point out that since products were the strongest brand to brand this year an issue became evident. I had to figure out a tie-breaker. This became very obvious when I had ties in the first three categories that I tabulated. So needing help in deciding the first tie-breaker I took to social media with a poll. In what was also a very close race the public decided that the first tie-breaker would be Price-point.
TOP PUTTER,THE WINNER IS…
The ARGOLF MORDRED putter (39/40) – The Arthurian Legend lives on coming to golfers all the way from the Brittany Region in France. The MORDRED putter has a “dark story” behind it as Mordred was a treacherous traitor from Arthurian lore. However, this MORDRED is no traitor as you’ll sink putts with it in hand. The ARGOLF MORDRED putter is a mallet putter that’s crafted from aerospace grade 7175 Aluminum for a soft feel. Also of note is the fact that the MORDRED offers a total club weight of 525 grams and has an M.O.I, rating of 9800. It provides a consistent roll whether it’s off of the center of the face or the heel or toe. There is no twisting whatsoever. I love the looks as it’s grey with an orange alignment aid. Add in the black PVD shaft with the Grey with Orange trim mid-sized PURE grip and you have a putter that performs great but looks even meaner.
