  • For Golf’s Equipment trucks and their staff, the margin of error is razor thin: it’s too easy to blame the clubs for a bad round. In this episode of VICE Sports Guide to Pro Golf, we learn the ins and outs of a tour truck staff's duties during a tournament and their unique relationship with the players.
    Presented by Callaway.

    This guy Kevin is a prince of a man. He parked in our lot for a few days before heading down to Riviera from San Francisco. He gave me a nice tour of the truck and while I was there, he gave me a dozen of Brandon Grace's custom Golf Pride grips, just cuz. This guy has a reason to be so cool....what a job! I've never been jealous of other guys' jobs...until I met Kevin Napier

    That was totally cool. My first watch. Probably some production commitments, but you should do more. What's in the bag with individual players. Some analysis with shafts and clubs etc.

    I wish the equipment was cheaper, but the cost is such a barrier to participation. It's not like other sports that just require a single ball and some friends to have a good time.

      You don't need to spend that kind of cash on bespoke gear to put together a decent game. Discount warehouse stores and off-the-rack sticks work fine for us Regular Joes.

      Agreed! It should only be a problem with people have that champagne taste on a beer budget.
      Alternatively you can grab top of the line gear that's a couple years old for a heck of a lot cheaper than the current years' model

      I play with my dad's 35 year old Tommy Armour irons. Probably would get a bit more consistency with a modern set, but those things are soooo well balanced it's almost not worth it.

      They choose people based on their attributes, why should they make a diverse staff if they will suffer in know how. They choose people based on what they know and how good they are, you don't see me over here complaining about there being no women. Have you ever thought that maybe these two types don't often apply for these jobs.... Oh wait no, based on your comment your a left winged person that believes in diversity over skill and just loves to complain about it online.
