Michigan Golf Journal New Equipment in 2020 New Technology to Drop Strokes By Jeremiah Richie Maple Hill Golf Spring is just around the corner and we’re all ready to test our skills again across Michigan’s beautiful golf courses. The new season doesn’t just bring opportunities to shave some strokes from your handicap or pick up a few extra bucks in a $5 Nassau – it also brings new technology to help you do it. Here are a few advances in golf technology to check out before you hit the links this year. Odyssey Stroke Lab Triple Track Putters Odyssey began using the Stroke Lab putter shaft in 2019. The multi- material shaft saves 40 grams of weight, which is redistributed to the head and grip end of the putter. This completely rebalances the putter for improved tempo and consistency in the stroke. New for 2020 there’s a new Microhinge Star Insert in the face for a firmer feel and enhanced sound, but the real advance is in the Triple Track Alignment. Developed from Callaway’s innovative golf ball alignment system, the three Triple Track lines are prominently featured to help improve your putting accuracy. Triple Track uses Vernier Hyper Acuity for better and more consistent alignment, a key fundamental to good putting. It’s a design that’s incredibly intuitive and easy to use. While it appears gimmicky at first, the results, especially when used alongside a Triple Track golf ball, are hard to deny. https://maplehillgolf.com/search. php?searchboost4T=Triple%20 Track&section=content Garmin Approach S62 Premium GPS Golf Watch Garmin is an obvious choice when it comes to anything GPS, but the revolutionary Approach S62 is setting a new standard for quality, features, and all-around use on and off the course.
