Summary

798: Raymond McMahon from the UK is a retired engineer who was frustrated watching his grandson missing putts he should’ve made. So he did something about it. He created a carbon fiber putter shaft that is now being used by Tour players! Raymond is a Golf Smarter listener and wrote to discuss his putter shaft, his grandson’s climb up the national rankings, including winning a significant amateur event, and why his putter shaft consistently outperforms every competitor.
