Who is Mugen?
Mugen Motorsports (M-TEC Co., Ltd.) is synonymous with high-performance tuning and engineering in the automotive world. Founded in 1973 by Hirotoshi Honda, the son of Soichiro Honda (the founder of Honda Motor Company), Mugen specializes in tuning Honda vehicles and producing aftermarket parts that push the limits of speed, aerodynamics, and precision. The brand has a decorated history in Formula One, Super GT, and endurance racing, where precision engineering differentiates between victory and defeat.
This obsession with precision and performance makes Mugen an ideal partner for Bridgestone in the development of the BITING SPIN Full Milled Wedge. It ensures that every aspect of its design meets the highest standards in golf club manufacturing.
Full Milled Construction for Unmatched Precision
The Bridgestone B-Limited BITING SPIN Wedge is crafted using a full milling process, meaning that the entire head—including the face, sole, and back—is machine-milled to an extremely tight tolerance. This results in a consistent shape, precise center of gravity (CG) positioning, and a uniform surface that maximizes spin and control. Unlike traditional cast wedges, which may have minor variations due to the manufacturing process, fully milled wedges provide unparalleled consistency in feel and performance.

I know some of you are absolutely crazy about college sports. I also know that some of you just like to show off your alma mater because otherwise, nobody would believe you actually went to college (they still don’t believe you graduated).
So anyway, just in time for March Madness (roughly) TaylorMade has expanded its Collegiate Collection to include 87 colleges and universities.
The updated collection includes driver covers, putter covers (both mallets and blades), TP5/TP5x golf balls, and oddly, wedges.
While 87 different schools makes for an impressive offering, it comes with a caveat. Not every school in the collection is available with every product.
If you find yourself screaming Roll Damn Tide with any frequency, you’re going to love that you can show your ‘Bama pride on absolutely everything – headcovers, golf balls, and wedges.
Putting is one of the most important aspects of golf, and improving your skills on the greens can lower your scores significantly. Here are some essential tips to help you become a better putter:
1. Focus on Your Setup
- Proper Stance: Your feet should be shoulder-width apart, with your knees slightly flexed. Your weight should be evenly distributed.
- Ball Position: Position the ball slightly forward of center in your stance, around the middle of your feet. This helps ensure a clean, solid strike.
- Grip: Use a relaxed grip. Avoid gripping the putter too tightly, as tension can affect your stroke. Experiment with different grip styles, such as the traditional grip, cross-handed grip, or claw grip, to find the one that feels most comfortable.
2. Align Your Eyes Properly
- Eyes Over the Ball: When you're standing over the ball, make sure your eyes are directly over or just inside the line of the putt. This alignment will help you see the break and make more accurate strokes.
3. Maintain a Smooth Stroke
- Pendulum Motion: Use a pendulum-like swing with your shoulders, keeping your arms and hands steady throughout the stroke.
- Back and Through: Focus on making a smooth, even stroke both back and through, avoiding jerky or rushed movements. The key is consistency.
4. Read the Green
- Observe the Slope: Look at the overall slope of the green, paying attention to subtle breaks that can affect the ball's path. Walk around the hole to get a better feel for the contours.
- Use Your Feet: Feel the slope by standing behind the ball and paying attention to how your feet feel on the green. This can give you a better sense of the uphill or downhill breaks.
5. Practice Distance Control
- Focus on Speed: Putting is as much about controlling distance as it is about accuracy. Practice making putts with different amounts of speed, focusing on hitting the ball just past the hole if you miss.
- Use Short Putt Drills: Work on short-range putts, as they are critical for consistency. Start with putts under five feet, then gradually increase the distance as you become more comfortable.
6. Trust Your Putt
- Commit to Your Line: Once you’ve read the putt, commit to your line and stroke. Second-guessing can cause mistakes. Trust your practice and your ability to make the putt.
- Stay Confident: Confidence is key. Approach each putt with a positive mindset, believing that you can make it.
7. Practice Regularly
- Focus on Technique: Consistent practice is the only way to improve your putting. Spend time on the practice green working on both short and long putts.
- Use Drills: Try putting drills like the "clock drill" or "gate drill" to improve your accuracy, alignment, and stroke consistency.
By incorporating these putting tips into your game, you’ll gain better control over your short game and reduce the number of strokes taken on the green.
