AUGUSTA, Ga. – Bryson DeChambeau’s work ethic is the stuff of legend, but his preparation for the Masters was extreme even for the Mad Scientist.
Last week at Dallas National, DeChambeau had a 14-hour range session where he tested five different shafts in his wedges. He hit only 125 balls on the gear system while trying to figure out why he was “on the wrong side of the spin loft curve.”
“After careful observation and some really deep, deep thinking about what’s happening with some cool depictions of how the club was moving through the ball, we started to realize it was something we could do with the shafts,” DeChambeau explained.
