Club fittings for these higher handicap players are so much more satisfying to watch than for the low handicap players. I love how much these guys can help someone by fitting them into better fitting equipment.

It's just too bad this level of expertise is not available to more players in other regions. Beautiful work guys!

Hands down the best golf content on KZfaq

I’m starting to think that the money I’d spend to get to Toronto to see you guys would be made up over the course of a season by the on-course betting losses I could avoid!! Will be most interested in an update from Sam later this year about how he’s getting on. Thanks guys!!

I had to comment and mention that besides the knowledge that you guys are imparting, it seems that the overall kind demeanor and positive attitude you guys have is effecting Sam. I feel like he started becoming more and more confident, and also proud that you guys were able to change his game so drastically. Hats off to you guys, I would love to see Sam's face when he goes out to the green and gets that next birdie tap in. 🐦

Love these fitting videos. Ians fitting knowledge is like watching an artist paint a picture. Looks like I have to make a trip to Canada for a proper fitting!

I thoroughly enjoy this channel. The fitting detailed conversation along with the before and after data is awesome. I’m working to get scheduled with Ian now and have no second thoughts about investing the additional money in travel expenses from Maryland. Super job guys!

Another aspect of fitting that rarely gets looked at. Since most of our shots are close to the green, this merits more scrutinization than we normally give it. The effort put in to the mat is also a novel thing. Excellent on all counts, gents!

I would love to see Sam's HCP improvement by season end.

Never ceases to amaze me the knowledge from these guys love it

I am impressed you have a custom mat for wedge fittings! Great job as always

I love your videos! This is my favorite of the 100's of yours that I've watched. Because you did the fitting with an average player, it was fascinating to watch your expertise. I have been fitted for clubs, but it was nowhere as precise and well done as this. I love the game and would sure love to experience something as precise as this fitting. Having the correct tools in your hand as a golfer is so important, yet it is so unavailable to most of us. A usual fitting is so limited in time and expertise (such as yours) that we leave the fitting in no better shape than when we enter. Such a pleasure to watch your expertise and help.

Another great video. It's amazing how a good quality fitting will improve scores, cause sometimes there is nothing wrong with the swing it's really the equipment isn't right for the swing. Thanks again guys and keep these types of videos coming.

Great video! Loving the high handicap fitting series in general.

You guys continue to amaze me with what can be done in a fitting!

You guys are absolute studs. Flying there from the US for a fitting seems like the best move for me!

Great explanation of bounce and relevance to a wedge fitting. Well done.

I went to the CBX2 from Cleveland for my wedges. Best decision I’ve made.

I would love to do a follow up with Sam later this year and see how his game has improved.

I am going to go out on a limb and predict that this channel will have over one million subscribers in the near future! I see that Rick Shiels has 312k subscribers and Mark Crossfield has 252k subscribers. This KZfaq channel is more informative and complete on golf clubs than both of theirs. Good luck!

Used this video as a recommendation to sample new wedges. These pings are amazing for me. Just got fitted for glide 2.0’s. Thanks boys!!!

I swear before I turn 40, I should get a full bag fitting from you guys!

You guys hit it out of the park again and I'M looking forward to the wedge grind part of the fitting.

I just bought wedges a few months ago and I regret not getting fit. I wish I saw this video then . Great stuff guys.

Phenomenal video. Thank you to Sam again. I also have my wedges that are the same length and it has helped me a lot. One thing I didn't know is having the bounce affect me on the strike and not just on the touch shots but also in the full shots. Thank you guys as well. You have provided some great content. I've learned a lot from your videos. If I may, could you guys do a ball fitting?

Just killed it guys ... So much fun to watch

Really wish you guys had a shop in the UK the intensive fitting puts most shops to shame,with clubs costing so much why shouldn't we get the best version of that club we can .

You guys are the best! Really appreciate this video as a mid/high handicap.

Man, I wish you guys were in Southern California. I'd be there ASAP for a fitting. Great job!

Great video guys, so many reasons why wedges shouldn’t be taken for granted.

10:19 Matt is like "darn I need a lie adjustment don't I"

Great channel, really an eye opener, to see what properly fitted clubs can make to average golfer. The high handicap addition is great. Pity there is nobody providing a similar service where I live

I went online to SCOR golf to get my wedges -- they made sure there was a 5 degree gap between each of the wedges, as well as to my highest loft iron (it's a 9). When I contacted SCOR they asked what my set makeup was so that they could get the shaft and lie of the wedges as close as possible to my irons (Adams new Idea). Great video again.

I love this channel! Detailed, informative and well delivered. I think you will see an Irishman in Toronto for a fitting in a few months (just moved to The States from Singapore). Thanks guys. Please keep doing this show!

Another great job of fitting. I continue to learn something knew from each episode, this one was how the higher bounce helped him in the lower wedges.

Wow! Just wow! There’s NO way that’s a typical result from a fitting, right? What you guys accomplish is ridiculous sometimes. Love the content of this show. At 1st I just loved watching Matt rip driver with his flawless swing. Now I can’t get enough of the relevant info you guys provide I’m also super excited I’m only an hour away from T.O (and 1/2hr from ‘Sauga) Me’s thinking I need to pay you guys a visit near the end of the winter season

Absolutely brilliant! ! I'm just like sam closer to green the more confident i get ... already looking for fitting appts !! Thanks guys another hugely helpful video keep up the great work

Really amazing the value of fitting. I am scheduled for a driver fitting in a few days and have learned so much on what to expect and look for in the results.

I understand that the average viewer is around an average golfer so I get why they want to see more videos of the average golfer's fitting etc., but I feel as though you guys can create the same video (wedge, driver, fairway metal fitting etc.) with Matt because it will showcase the similarities and differences between the two groups (average and low single digit handicap) and it would also make the videos more interesting for those golfers like me who are low single digit handicaps and have never been fitted for clubs and want to see the benefits (if any) of getting fit when you're already "good".

Blows my mind just how many improvements can be made to high hcp players through fitting alone. Question: for single digit handicappers, is it better/more beneficial to have a variety of bounces and grinds through their wedge set?

Kudos... you guys are by far the most scientific, fact based dudes fitting clubs on line. Trying 15 different mat combinations to emulate fairway “firmness” deserves a hat tip. I bet you are working on tight lie and very wet condition mat to emulate the extremes for guys that want wedges adapted to their common local playing conditions! Science!

Wish my fitter had taken the time to replicate the grass like you Ian, he fitted me on a very tight weave of indoor mat for Edel wedges and on the course they behave very differently, a very expensive £600 (3 wedges) mistake. They now sit in the garage while I use Glide 3.0 which were fitted by A N Other. Great work fellas, put a fiver on Sam to be 12 by the end of next year for me! I’m good for it!

Outstanding info!! Love watching your average golfer fittings! I always learn so much!

Good to see this and very interesting. Also really good to hear about you folks customizing the mat to be like outside as exactly I found that after a wedge fitting inside they were not so good for me on the course and indeed I ended up replacing the clubs completely. As I have srixon irons with a customised after market shaft, I decided to go with the RTX 3s for my wedges but with the same graphite shafts as my irons. Being left handed srixon did not have a gap wedge available so cleveland was the way to go. Suffice to say as they feel like the same set - relatively speaking - they feel a comfortable continuity. Indeed the gap wedge is probably now my favourite and most reliable club aside from my putter. Just to add that it is great you asked the question of what do you chip with as I use the 9 or pitching wedge not the higher lofted 56 (sand) and 60 (rough and behind bunkers onto green) wedges I have. Though I rarely now use these two clubs. Just as an aside bounce availability for left was much less as options in left handed. As you indicated also good you did the full set with a specific individual. It would be good to see what further corrections or tweaks were made after Sam was fitted with each group not only gapping wise but also feel wise. And a putter session?

Wow another great video guys exactly like you said most of us can relate to Sam being off 12 myself. Amazing how you straightened him up and squeezed more yardage just by adjusting the lie and bounce. I am very envious of Sam at the moment :), can't wait to see his iron fitting. Keep up the great work guys love your videos.

Top quality content coming out of these guys. Always learning something new. 👏🏼👏🏼

Great video again guys. It has seriously made me look at the bounce on my wedges as I have the same issue Sam has with the fat shots.

I wish Ian was closer to where I live, I'd sure book a fitting. Currently at 6.6 down from 9.8 at the beginning of the year. Would love to try to get as close to scratch as possible. Great content guys!

Thanks Sam for your time. Great video guys, looking forward to Sam’s iron fit. Very interesting regarding lie angles and ball flight direction, have learned a lot.............cheers!

I just love this channel. Look forward to the vids 👍👍👍

How are you not making zillions of dollars? You are really masterful at this fitting gig. I would think people would be climbing over each other to get a fitting done by you , this is really amazing i mean if i had money amd time I'd be there like now lol . Seriously you are absolutely great at diagnosing and fixing what can be fixed through fitting.

The two of you do a great job of helping the player to space and dial in all of their clubs in the bag. Do you know or could you recommend anyone who is that thorough, down here in the Southern California area? I would much appreciate it!

3 yrs old but this is flipping amazing to watch. I need a fitting bad

Great videos guys. In the interest of appropriate fitting I never see the fit and function of the great number of grips and grip sizes. The grip technology, seems to me, to be advancing as quickly as every other facet of the game, yet I've not seen any of my favorite channels cover it. I use Gripmaster leather on a couple of my sets but have recently been courting oversize Dri-Tacs. The lack of coverage surprises me because this is essentially where the rubber meets the road, is it not. Thanks very much for all your help. TJ

It will be interesting to see how the new callaway Cavity backed wedge competes with CBX and Glide.

wished I lived near the center to get a fitting! Ian seems like the Einstein of golf fittings!

I really wish you guys were in the Dallas area. I'd be coming in for a full bag evaluation

Great stuff gentlemen. The imparted knowledge shared through these videos, second to none! What a great service to your market area, TXG should should be everywhere!

Just shows the importance of a good fitting, the first clubs in my bag I had to change when I moved from Glasgow to Melbourne were my wedges, I now play 4 wedges starting at a 46 12 rtx 3 cb , a 50 10 Callaway md4, a 54 10 rtx3 and 58 6 rtx2

I'm going to have to make a trip to Toronto for a fitting...

Well, you've narrowed my choice for a club fitting down to TXG. A few months ago I was willing to drive to the Hamilton area to get fit at a big box store, just to have one particular individual conduct the fitting. Now I'm hearing this individual 'may have' joined your staff. It's just comforting to know the skill level of the fitter, rather than be somewhat in doubt. Any extra cost in the travel and the fitting would be worthwhile. I'd just feel secure in the knowledge that I have the best clubs for me, rather than wonder if I do, particularly when projected over the hundreds of rounds I'll play in the foreseeable future.

Holy crap, I think I might wanna make my own DIY "fitting board" to have something better to hit off at my local range! Really interesting comment you made about the firmness of the mat not allowing for the proper contact point. I've definitely noticed that before at the range and end up compensating by getting way steeper than I need to with the wedges, particularly with partial shots.

Great info! I played off 18 last year and hopefully this fit will help me out. I play a Mizuno T7 52-7* of bounce and hit it fat more often then not. I play a lot of tight lies which is why I went to the 7* of bounce. I think I’m going to look at getting something closer to a 10* of bounce.

Love these longer detailed videos! Well done guys.

I was in search of a new wedge(60d) and thought about the new ping glide, but being a TM guy, I got the new TM high toe wedge. It does what I need it to do. Good vid !

I really enjoyed the high handicapper fitting. It will be interesting to show older high handicaper with a swing speed around 60 mph.thank you.

Impressive as usual. Thank you. 👍🏌🏼

I’m going to get my driver and wedges fit today! Talk about timing

Another exceptional video guys... really looking forward to the video on wedge grinds as that is one of the more confusing aspects of golf equipment

Great session! I wish I could be there ...but I live Italy! Great work by the way! Real professional

Love your content. Most underrated golf channel on KZfaq for sure. What does a fitting like this cost?

This video was so amazing I came in and booked a wedge fitting in a week. Thank you what is the typical timeline before you get the wedges you were fit for?

Fantastic golf channel....might need to move to Canada because I would love a club fitting from you guys

Where is the second part of this wedge fitting session? I was unable to find it. Big fan, thanks guys.

These videos are awesome! Would you guys consider doing a mid handicapper fitting/test?

Really great video gentlemen! This is some VERY good content that I found useful for my own desire to get fitted! Thank you and I look forward to more videos 👍🏾

Sam has become my favorite test subject.

Another great video. I wanted to know more about how Sam was getting along with his driver on the course! Maybe an on-course series needs to happen when the weather warms up?

Love the videos and glad we are getting to see high handicap fittings and not knocking Sam but would love to see hear conducted using different test subjects lol. All in all though another solid video.

Another great video! Thanks for addressing using the matt for the fitting. Was wondering how that factored in. Any chance you guys could let us know which matt you use?

Is your next video on wedges going to discuss the different needs/uses for different bounces? Are there certain bounces for certain conditions or is it more related to swing or just individual? I live in Texas. Most of the year the fairways and even rough can be very firm. Would less bounce be better in firm conditions?

Brilliant video 👍

Mizuno is 1 degree flat from most other brands. I play a flatter lie and did not know that until i tried Mizuno's. Nice video guys thank you

Just awesome patience and awesome job!

Love the videos. One question I have is that for those of us who use the gap wedge for full shots, do you recommend a set wedge or a custom wedge (i.e. i200 U wedge vs Glide 2.0). Cheers and keep up, the GREAT work!

Yet another awesome video episode from the High Hcper Series.I knew that bounce impacts strike point, but this fitting example showed very clearly what type of benefits one can get from getting into the correct bounce/head profile. I feel that a key point was glossed over a bit - the fact that a cavity back wedge is probably a better fit for mid-high hcpers vs. the classic blade. Cleveland is making more of a marketing push on that with their CBX wedges - not sure that many people are aware that the Ping Glide is also a cavity back. Question: For average golfers (15hcp and up), in fittings, do you generally see them getting more benefits from a cavity back style wedge vs. popular blades? Are the spin characteristics similar in both styles or does one get more spin from blades (I believe that is another misconception, but i have no data to support it)? Love this channel and what you guys do for the golfing public. Hands down, TXG is the best. Keep 'em coming!

Fantastic lads very informative and intriguing as I've just started playing again after 18 yrs now 50 swing as totally changed and this as really giving me sum perspective as to wot I'm looking for. Thanks guys.

Awesome vid. Wish u guys had a branch in South East Asia.

Looking forward to seeing Sam's iron fitting!

So how much did Sam improve throughout the season? With the upgrades he's had through the bag in all of these fittings, I wouldn't be surprised if he's playing off a 15-17 now. Please bring Sam back in for an off-season recalibration session!

Just known this YT channel and now I subs here. Amazing content. If one day I have the chance to go to Toronto I will there fitting my golf clubs

You guys need to get a mobile fitting bus and come down to the US. I would easily pay $$$ for the quality your provide.

What are the major differences you’ll see in shaft differences for wedges? You talked a lot about lie angle, loft, and bounce, but there are many options for shafts available.

I am Sam. I might hit the ball farther, but I'm inconsistent and push the ball right. Going for a fitting in a few weeks.

Well done guys. So so much valuable info. Much appreciated.

Wish there was a fitting place like this in the uk ☹️ class videos. Keep it up

I love your content, and I just came to realize that wedges are probably the most important part of my game. So much so that I went from 2 to 4. I now have shots for 80 yards up to 125 before going into my normal irons. I cannot stress enough how important wedges are. This will be my forth year playing and I'm hoping to break 90 this summer.

Quality video yet again guys! I'm looking to get fitted for wedges soon and after hitting a few different brands recently the Callaway MD4's have felt the best so far.Looking forward to more content about grind selection :)

Thanks Sam. Pointed out during the video was the number of comments of related to yes that's me. Be interesting to know the demographics in relationship to access to trusted quality experienced fitters in their areas. Custom fit is used to broadly in my opinion and what defines a fitter from a snake oil salesman. Going to be an interesting journey watching TXG in the Canadian golf market. Goodbye Oven we have the Igloo.

With it being almost 1.5 years later, how is Sam's HCP been since this fitting?
