- Helps impart good follow-through mechanics
- Provides a smooth feel even on short putts

Ball – Titleist Pro V1
Key Features:
- Spherically tiled dimples
- 2.0 ZG Process core
- Casing layer designed to inhibit spin
Selling Points:
If you want a tour grade ball that offers distance form the tee without giving up greenside spin control, this is the ball for you.
The proprietary casing layer underneath the mantle keeps the long-game spin low on these balls.
But the cast urethane elastomer cover provides enough bite to spin it as needed for your short game.
Pros:
- It holds it’s line very well
- The cast urethane cover gives these balls a soft feel
- Good ball speed
Cons:
- Launch is a bit lackluster
- Not very congenial for slower swing speeds
Overall Score: 98/100

Caddie – John Limanti
Adam Scott’s caddie this season will be none other than John Limanti. You are probably familiar with the name because John Limanti has been on the bag for a long list of high-profile PGA Tour pros. But he has only been a professional caddie for 6 years.
Scott and Limanto paired up after a rather tumultuous period for Scott. After he split with former Woods caddie, Steve Williams, Scott couldn’t seem to find the right fit and went through multiple caddies until he found Limanti who he appears to feel more comfortable with.
