YOUR GEAR, REVIEWED 98% of you reading this won’t know who the hell these guys are, 99% will have never seen their equipment and 100% of you will have never seen them on the TV, they don’t have a big name on the box pushing their products and they have never won a Tour event but Bombtech golf are a serious outfit with a genuinely good product. In fact they are so confident in what they have brought to the market they have slapped this message on the homepage of their website “GUARANTEED TO OUTPERFORM YOUR CURRENT DRIVER” IF YOU DON’T LIKE IT YOU CAN GET YOUR MONEY BACK. We spoke with Sully XXX the owner of Bombtech golf before we took to the course to “pull the pin” on the Grenade. Q. WHO ARE BOMBTECH GOLF AND WHY DID IT COME TO LIFE? I played golf in high school and had a few good days on the links. I was an individual state qualifier and finished 7th in the state championship. I founded the company in 2011 after personal frustrations with a local club builder. After my 7th broken driver in 2 months. I threw my hands in the air and said that is enough. At the exact moment I started custom building golf clubs and more specifically drivers. Q. WHAT SETS BOMBTECH APART FROM THE MAJOR MANUFACTURES, IF THE PRODUCT IS THAT GOOD WHY HAVEN’T WE SEEN THEM ON A BIGGER STAGE? Our USP is that is club is built with Pure Engineering at the heart, every club is custom built by hand and they are shipped direct to the customer. NO MARKETING. Paying a pro won’t make the golf clubs perform any better. All it would do is increase the price of our golf clubs, and no one wants that! We have many teaching pros and mini tour players that play our custom golf clubs because they work for their specific game. Q. WHAT IS THE TECH BEHIND THE GRENADE? The first innovative driver we created was designed with the University of Vermont, the Dual Cavity system offers a drag reduction of 48% which allows the club to be squarer at impact due to the air flow. More weight is behind the sweet spot of the club making the face hotter and the center of gravity is positioned at true center. Q. SO THERE ARE NO WEIGHTS, NO ADJUSTABLE SETTING FOR THE LOFT? Nope.Wrenches, screws and weights are making the game too complicated. The majority of golfer’s should find a golf driver that fits their game and then they should practice! ISSUE 02 | YOURCADDY 23
