Fair dews. Like what you're saying here Jonny

cheers fella

Great to see Clark win, very happy for him.

🤣😂🤣😂

🤣 LOVE IT mate

LOVE CANADA . . . one day I'll be back there

LOVE IT! Only call out from my side. I have to have my folks leave with some confidence and enjoying the experience. Trust me I wanna get in there and do the massive exaggerated FEELS but if I get them hitting it on the course and gaining yardage I will stop there..... However, if they want a series of lessons and a longer term plan I'll walk that walk with them but always try to keep good golf at the forefront.

@@trottiegolf that’s a great call out. You are a master of your craft sir. It’s crazy how much of this game is mental.

If you like the idea then it can never hurt, I have a vid dropping tomorrow where I talk more on that exact subject. STAY TUNED

@@trottiegolf thanks!!!

Not just that, it's also face plane tilt. I think I have something on loft sleeves but maybe I'll do a refresher on the upright V the std

@@trottiegolf yes please do! You’d be the only one with a video on it… Also do you do fittings for regular people?

@@neubauer0120 👍🏻 • currently no but that may change in the future

I have had rounds were I hit every fairway but I will also have rounds were two or three push fades and fighting to recover from three double bogeys

For instance I n the last 10 rounds of golf I have shot par 2x 4under 1 time 1 over 2 over also shot 7 over 8 over 13 over and 89 2times. I am all over the scorecard.

Check out the two videos Trottie did with Ben Baller. Pretty sure it was just one long session, but one video was a lesson and one was a club fitting (but still more of a lesson). He had only been playing for like 6 months and it was impressive the improvements he made with Trottie in one session.

Stealth 2 model, plenty of loft & not too stiff of a shaft is a good start point

I post slow-mo's on my insta quite a bit, take a look there 👍

I do not offer fittings yet but might add it in 2024

Don't we all!

@trottiegolf when I started doing it, it felt foreign and like I was losing power, but then I started getting nice piercing ball flight and a baby draw along with more consistent contact from the resulting shallower path. It's great if you can get that right elbow slotted again on the downswing like a lot of players can, but if you can't it's the way to go.

You'd need a ton of speed for X in C-Taper, at least from what I've seen. With that said I don't know your speed but I probably said heel as he wasn't int he slot but for you I'd check divot direction and of course SWING WEIGHT

@@trottiegolf my 7 iron about 91mph and 6 iron is around 95. I'll check divot direction next time i'm on some grass. how does swing weight change that? does a heavier swing weight make it easier to find center? i've been working on lining it up more out of the toe at set up and not early extending. Thanks!

@@trottiegolf i watched your kbs shaft fitting video, that helped answer a lot of questions for me. thanks for that video!

@@stuartphimmer7429 hmmmm interesting that you're playing with where you line up, I don't hate that. Deano, who you see in my vids, he loves that. Swing weights are balance points, they're everything, never overlook them. Watch this vid: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jd1iesSJuKu8aYU.html

@@trottiegolf thank you i will check it out

Just better launch numbers, resulting in less energy lost

You can't be changing grips in a fitting..... I push the boundaries with AM's but I'm also aware of them

@@trottiegolf ya I know all that but if you want to get him to hit a draw and you want him to be more underneath he’s got to stick to it

I know tour PLYR's who don't shape it as efficiently as they'd like? It's about the feels and what you have to work towards opposed to seeing butter draws when it's not your go to

Or we just become mates and I pop ya on camera 🤷‍♂

Brought up in Scotland and had a good amateur career, hitting higher than 60ft back in the 90's with the equipment back then wasn't the way to go. Now lives at altitude and can cover up his peak height downfalls with thinner air. Bottom line this vide proved we're a victim to our environment & equipment. I look at this one differently, as in: " How Good of a Golfer is he, that he's developed his game around what he had! " Providing he keeps the same approach then in one season he'll be hitting BOMBS! I think he picked up 30ft peak height in this one session alone. You gotta feed the good, this game is SO TOUGH that hating on faults isn't going to get you any further than being a club fitr on the PGA Tour..... oh wait..... I just lived that scene 🤣😂

@@trottiegolf that’s sort of like saying that when someone was younger they didn’t wear seatbelts and they haven’t changed their ways yet when it’s been decades since it was a thing

@@trottiegolf the guys been playing I’m assuming for the last 30 years since the era you mention

@@trottiegolf constructive criticism isn’t “hating” , which is just sort of a made up term people use

@@braydenboyko8525 no it's nothing like that. Putting on a seatbelt is an easy process and you see instant improvement. Opposed to: You take an adult amateur golfer who has won big events as a teenager using one method. Changes their whole environment, plus their body declines in terms of flexibility and strength & they have less time both physically and mentally for a game they now play for enjoyment..... Then it's not a simple fix. Certainly not during a fun club fitting experience when all you want to see the amateur golfer do is enjoy the process, learn and improve. Look you take a younger golfer, with more time, then I'm with you but to say it's like applying a seat belt when you get in your car. Sorry I cannot agree.... but with all that said I'm not on here for back n fourth or arguments about technique or fitting. Bottom line everyone is their own boss of their game and what you do might be totally different to Ian or the next guy / gal. Isn't that why we all love the game? You have to find what works for you & no doubt tour pro's do it better than anyone & some of them by only hitting one shape.

I hear what you are saying. But i now 4 hcps like that....good short game...only play home course etc. This was more a basic driver lesson than a fitting. But regardless he spend the money well!

I believe he's a 4 easily. His driver was consistently in the fairway in this video

Haters gonna hate. It took less than a 60-second Google search to figure out this guy was a player as a junior. Trottie even makes a quick reference to it at 17:19. Grew up in Scotland near St. Andrews. Won the St. Andrews Golf Club championship (against adults, not juniors) on the Old Course as a 17 year old in 1996 (2 rounds stroke play, 16-player knockout match play at Old Course). Has been living in the US in Mammoth CA for over 20 years working as a ski/snowboard instructor. His ball position and launch angle totally make sense for a guy who grew up in Scotland trying to keep the ball low. It's likely that he's just been cruising along and getting by since his junior days on natural talent and muscle memory, and it's not outside the realm of possibility that he's never had a high level fitting like this before.

No hate in my heart 😊 i was commenting on what was played in the video above, not some events in the past.

Should be easy 🤣

His ball position and launch angle totally make sense for a guy who grew up in Scotland trying to keep the ball low and has continued to play that way all his life.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 you’re joking right? 1) probably a favour for a mate/family member. 2) you usually get a fitting or a lesson. It is very rare to get both. Your dog shit American golf (brand) fitters will throw you in any old shit and delete your bad shots to justify it. Others will butter you up and just be yes men. This bloke is incredibly lucky to be told point blank, whats realistic for him and how to go about it + he’s being fit at the same time. By a Tour fitter.

Yea that white from what I know is stoat. Defo soften that puppy up
