This is helpful. I carry around 200, and am considered one of the longer hitters in my senior leagues. Most of us do not relate to club videos where they are always reviewed by pros who can hit anything 300 yards.

3:42 something for people to think about. His slowest swing 90mph was his furthest carry 220yds. Absolutely no need to swing out your shoes to knock the skin off the ball, that 220 carry is a 250 yard tee shot all day 💪🏼👌

Interesting from a fitting perspective, shows that fittings can make a hell of a difference. But, I think the wight and shaft types should have been kept secret and then ask the questions about how it feels.

I have a 12 degree Cleveland HBTurbo 45.5 inch Regular flex and a Nike Vapor speed with an A flex 44.5 inch shaft set at 11.5 degrees. The difference at my swing speed (85-90 mph) is about 12 yards more with the regular flex, one inch longer shaft (220 -230 yards). The Nike is a fairway finder though!

I totally agree that the weight and bend profile of a shaft has a significant effect on optimising a Driver to suit a specific Golfers Swing DNA. During a fitting, I prefer that a fitter doesn't tell me what changes they are making to the shafts etc to ensure that I only react to the "change in feel". Otherwise, I have a tendency to react to the information (this is heavier/lighter, stiffer etc) which can then influence the end result. Personally, I am sensitive to the weight of a shaft, too light or too heavy and my dispersion/ball flight is all over the place, but when the weight is "just right" I am able to time the swing and my dispersion gets tighter and the carry increases.

Is it even possible to 'fit 'a player like this, with such a random strike, swing, etc ?
@LWG3 жыл бұрын
Every mid to high handicap player will have a random scatter of strike. They are going to buy clubs somewhere whether of the shelf or fitted. So the fitting is about giving them the best possible clubs you can that try and eliminate as many of the bad shots as possible and give the good ones the optimal numbers. It’s not as easy as fitting a ball striker but that makes it a challenge to improve their golf.
@deadlymantis42103 жыл бұрын
@@LWG So if a "poor" player came to you for a fitting. Would you say get fit then have lessons? Or go get lessons, improve, get better, then get fit? As surely 10 lessons with off the shelf clubs will drop a Hcp quicker than a fitted set and No lessons?
@LWG3 жыл бұрын
I ask if they are having or planning lessons. Some people aren’t interested in lessons. They just want to play golf. I have turned a few people away from a fitting saying your wasting your money and you won’t gain anything from a new set of irons etc. But those that aren’t interested in lessons. It’s my job to try and give them the best enjoyment they can
