Happy Friday, and thanks for joining us this week! Another bumper episode for you this week, and we're starting with a rant about driving ranges. Since the introduction of Trackman ranges, it's safe to say the demographics and sheer volume of people going to driving ranges are changing. Is this newfound love for ranges making it tougher for the less casual golfers to get practice in? Or are we too busy looking down our noses at new people joining the game?

On Tested This Week, Joe has a new toy - a Foresight GC3 launch monitor to be precise. Off the back of this, we wanted to chat about why the one metric in particular on this (and all) launch monitors should be totally ignored by all levels of golfer.. Ask The Pod this week wants to know why more manufacturers don't switch to two-year release cycles, and then we're excited to welcome Harry Hall onto the show for a What's In The Bag interview. Sam De'Ath met up with Harry at Wentworth to discuss some of the more unique equipment decisions he's made this year.
