Why this popular club was a change maker

For the PGA Tour beginner Max Greyserman2024 was indeed a good year.

With six top 10s in 27 events – including three second-place finishes – Greyserman earned nearly $4.3 million at the course and climbed to No. 35 in the world rankings.

The 29-year-old Pro joined him Colt Knost and Drew Stoltz for a chat on the latest episode of Subpar, where he discussed his epic season, what it’s like living among many of his peers in Jupiter, Fla., and his recovery from wrist surgery.

Greyserman also admitted to being a bit of a tinkerer when it comes to setting up his gear and had a ready answer when Knost asked him about the craziest thing he’s ever tried with his gear.

“Probably just changing driver leads like every day of the week at a tournament,” he said. “I’ve messed with the driver enough.”

Knost asked if it was true that Greyserman played an ultra-forgiving driver pattern, which is usually played by higher handicappers.

“Yeah, I’ll take any help I can get, let’s be honest, why not?” he said. “Why should I play a blade iron when I can play a hollow back?”

“No one should play blade irons anymore,” Knost replied.

Greyserman then began to sing his praises Callaway Paradym mini driver.

“This mini driver – they’re doing something with this mini driver,” he said. “I go driver, mini driver, 2-iron. I don’t have a traditional wood. What I like most about the mini-driver is, we looked at the stats, and I was kind of coming up, not having good stats off the tee, and it was that my 3-wood wasn’t as accurate.”

Grayserman said he had been pestering Callaway to make a mini driver for two years before he finally got one in his bag.

“The main thing is, with the mini driver – obviously it’s not as good to hit off the deck as a 3-wood, but if you’re a higher speed player, how often are you going to hit a 3-wood on the green or a par 5, and if you even to be hitting a 3-wood on a green or a par 5?” Greyserman said. “So that was a numbers thing, and I hit the mini driver, you know, four or five times on average off the tee. So you’re just picking up a little bit of distance and a little bit of accuracy and you’re not sacrificing anything.

“So I liked looking at the numbers and understanding my game and knowing that it fits perfectly.”

Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Ti 340 Mini Driver

$449.99

The Ti 340 Mini Driver offers driver-like action with the release of a fairway wood. Titanium construction and intelligent face It provides exceptional ball speed with tight distribution. The Mini Driver will give players a higher ball flight and softer landing off the tee, resulting in improved distance consistency on challenging tee boxes that require precision. The world’s first Ai Smart Face created using real player data The new Ai Smart Face optimizes driver performance using movement dynamics from thousands of real players. These swing dynamics, or Swing Code, consist of swing speed, club delivery, and face orientation just prior to impact. This promotes optimal launch conditions and tight distance distribution, optimized precisely for the Mini Driver. Micro-deflections create multiple sweet spots With Ai Smart Face technology, micro-deflections are activated after impact helping to optimize launch and spin on off-center shots. The result is sweet spots not only in the center, but all over the face. Front and Back Weighting for Optimal Launch Using a front/back weighted screw design, players can further select their optimal launch and spin numbers. A 4g front weight and 12g rear weight can be flipped to reduce spin and encourage a more penetrating ball flight.

Grayserman said his little driver has a loft of 13.3 degrees on a 5-wood length of 42.5 inches.

“It looks like a kids’ club,” he joked.

However, the children’s club turned out to be a real weapon for Greyserman. After putting it in the bag at John Deere this year, Greyserman posted all three of his second-place finishes.

“I’ll let you guys figure out if I should keep it in the bag or not,” Greyserman said. “We don’t need numbers to tell us this is a good idea.”
