Gear Smart Podcast: Why Being Brand Agnostic in Golf Can be an Advantage

Nico Darras from Golf Blueprint joins this week's episode of Gear Smart to explain why having an open mind to equipment is an advantage on the course.

Nico Darras from Golf Blueprint is one of the smartest minds in golf practice and preparation. He works with everyone from the best players in the world to everyday golfers just trying to break their next scoring barrier.

But he wasn't always a golfer, and his background gives him a unique perspective on the game of golf, specifically equipment, because he never grew up being familiar with professional golfers or the equipment brands that dominate the golf landscape.

It's this perspective that made him the perfect guest for Episode 3 of Gear Smart—where we talked about his background in golf, high-level baseball, and how he selects the equipment in his bag.



The full episode is available now on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, along with all other major podcast platforms, plus video clips distributed across Skratch social channel and the dedicated Gear Smart Instagram page.
