It's been suggested that some of the blame for Rory's recent run of poor form is due to his change of manufacturer. You must have the inside angle on this, how long does it take a player to adjust to new clubs and ball and is it ever a case of they should have stuck with what they had?
Also, how difficult is it for the caddie to adjust to the new gear? It must take a while for you to be able to call the correct club in different conditions as well.

Players and commentators often talk about the direction of the grain on the greens, and on Masters Breakfast your yardage book had a red dot marking the location of Rae's Creek to indicate which way the grain would go. How much of a difference does it really make to a putt?
