2024: My Year in Gear
On Jan. 2, 2024, I flew from my home in Connecticut to Los Angeles to attend the launch event for Callaway's Paradym Ai Smoke line of woods and irons at TopGolf in El Segundo. I talked with the guys from Bob Does Sports and watched Rose Zhang hit balls up close to start my year in gear.
The season never really slowed down because a month later, I was attending the launch of Tiger Woods's lifestyle brand, Sun Day Red, while checking out the gear being used at Riviera Country Club during the Genesis Invitational. I went to New Orleans, Charlotte, and Pinehurst to see equipment and traveled to the Memorial Tournament for 12 hours to see the tour debut of the Titleist GT drivers. A few weeks after seeing Cobra's 3D-printed irons, I went to Louisville, Kentucky, I had a chance to hold and photograph Bryson DeChambeau's 3D-printed irons before spotting Jordan Spieth testing a Scotty Cameron mallet putter that Justin Thomas wound up using later in the year.
I could go on and on, but the photo gallery below is what you really want to see. It's loaded with some of the most eye-catching photographs I took in 2024.
Best wishes to everyone during the holiday season, and bring on 2025!
