Okay, today I want to talk about Si Woo Kim’s putter. I saw this guy on a golf tournament highlights video and his putting was just insane. So, I got curious and did some digging.
First, I watched more videos, mainly focusing on how he uses his putter. The guy’s a beast! He sinks putts from all over the place. I mean, some of those shots were ridiculous! He’s like a putting machine.
Then I went online to find out exactly what kind of putter he uses. Turns out, his main weapon is an Odyssey Toulon Design Santa Monica. I also read that he sometimes switches to a different, much larger putter. It’s like he’s got two completely different styles in his bag, a regular blade and this giant “broomstick” thing. Kind of wild, right?
- Checked his recent performances: Found out he’s been killing it lately, finishing in the top 20 in three of his last five tournaments. Even made it to the top 10 once!
- Looked up his other clubs: It seems like he’s a Callaway guy. Uses their Rogue ST LS for his five-wood and a mix of Apex and X-Forged irons.
- Found his wedges: He’s got a couple of Callaway Jaws wedges, a 52-degree, and a 58-degree.
I tried to find out why he switches between two so different putters, but couldn’t find a clear answer. Maybe it depends on the course, the greens, or just how he’s feeling that day. Who knows? Golfers are weird sometimes.
Anyway, after all this, I got super inspired. I went out and bought myself a new putter, not exactly like Si Woo Kim’s, but something that felt good to me. I’ve been practicing with it every day, and you know what? My putting has actually improved! It’s not magic, of course, but it just feels better in my hands, and I’m making more putts.
My Realization
This whole thing taught me that finding the right equipment can make a real difference. It’s not just about copying the pros, but finding what works for you. And hey, sometimes all it takes is watching a highlight reel and getting a little curious to spark some improvement in your own game.
