We’ve all played with that golfer. The one who takes three perfect practice swings before chunking the ball 20 yards. Or the guy who has $2,500 worth of equipment in his bag but refuses to spend a dime on lessons. Maybe it’s the golfer who needs an exact yardage from 40 yards out, only to leave the shot 15 yards short.

But here’s the question. Does any of that actually make someone a hack?

In Episode 15 of Splitting Fairways, Ryan “Hawk” and Jeremy “Lord Tox” tackle a subject that might hit a little too close to home for some golfers: Signs You’re a Hack Golfer.

Being a hack isn’t necessarily about your handicap or how well you play. It’s about the habits, accessories, excuses and questionable decisions that make other golfers shake their heads.

And nobody is safe, including us!

What Makes Someone a Hack Golfer?

The best part about this discussion is that there really isn’t a right answer. You can be a scratch golfer and still be a hack. You can shoot 95 and be the best playing partner in the group.

So, what gives someone away as a hack before they even take a swing?

Watch the latest episode of Splitting Fairways and then tell us which habits deserve the label and which ones are completely innocent.

Just remember, before you start pointing fingers, there’s a pretty good chance you’re guilty of at least one yourself.

Golfers can be a stubborn bunch, especially when it comes to equipment. We all have preferences, whether it’s a certain shaft flex, clubhead shape, or even the weight of our golf clubs. But what happens when those preferences actually get in the way of better performance?

That’s the question we’re tackling in Episode 14 of Splitting Fairways.

For years, lightweight golf clubs have carried a certain stigma. Mention a 40-gram driver shaft or a 60-gram graphite iron shaft, and plenty of golfers immediately think of equipment designed for seniors or players with slower swing speeds. But is that perception keeping golfers from finding something that could actually improve their games?

Lightweight Golf Clubs vs. Heavier Shafts

This week’s discussion comes from two very different perspectives.

Ryan recently spent time testing the XXIO 14+ lineup, including irons featuring incredibly lightweight 59-gram shafts. The results were surprising, producing some of his fastest iron speeds in the past year without the loss of head awareness you might expect.

Of course, there’s another side to the conversation.

Jeremy generates considerably more swing speed and approaches equipment weight differently. While he prefers iron shafts in the 100–110-gram range, going too light can create issues with timing, tempo, and overall control.

So where is the sweet spot? Is Your Ego Getting in the Way of Better Golf?

That’s where things get interesting.

Are golfers choosing heavier shafts because they genuinely perform better, or because playing something lighter feels like admitting they need help?

The goal isn’t to play lighter golf clubs. It’s to play the right ones.

Tune in to Episode 14 of Splitting Fairways and let us know: Are your golf clubs too heavy?
