I hear ya.....

Well, I've been reading (and buying) Wishon stuff since he was at Dynacraft then Golfsmith and now on his own. He designs and makes great clubheads. If you ever hear him talk about clubhead manufacturing and materials you can tell he has a passion for his craft. Have you read "The Search for the Perfect Golf Club" he wrote last year? Lots of good info for the layman, he also has a book out just for the clubmaker. He has a book on Driver fitting coming out very soon. Anyway, I tend to think he tries to work with real science (data) rather than marketing with his club designs. He's the first one I heard that had a legitimate explanation for clubhead lag at impact - I better be quiet about that one, though, that topic has stirred up quite the debates before.
