      @@dropzz_r6s80 Because it is great to see someone improve therefore success. Who wants to watch 300 yd plus scratch players drive it when you/we are just mere mortals wanting to improve.

    This exactly where the industry needs to go in order to save the game of golf....
    You would not believe the literal arguing I had to do with my local, (supposedly reputable pro shop), just to get fitted for a set of Ping Irons....It was almost as if I had more knowledge of the product,
    and the fitting process than the 35 year club fitting professional.
    It's refreshing to see guys like yourself helping the average golfer have more fun on the course.

    This is one of the most enjoyable golf equipment videos I have seen. I always wondered why someone didn't show actual fitting seesions, edited for length of course. I would love to see a fitting for a senior golfer with decent swing mechanics but who has lost swing speed. Say an 8 to 10 handicapper, swing speed 85 or less. I would think it is hard to find a lot of extra distance at lower speeds, but it would be great to see what driver might give the most distance, and how much control has to be sacrificed to do it.

    That was how a fitting should be.So many golfers walk out of a store thinking they have been custom fit, when in reality they have been sold one of the OEM's offerings that probably are not the best combination for that individual. In effect they walk out of the store leaving yards and accuracy behind and a big hole in their wallet.

    @mikeadrian3834 Před 6 lety

    well done video boys! Great to see your knowledge of the older ping product and that by cutting the shaft, it really made a huge swing weight change. Most fitters wouldn't check the specs of your clubs before they start fitting you. Top class fitting!

    Wow, what a remarkable level of improvement by moving the player into the appropriate club setup. +50yrds in total distance improvement....that is an absolute gamechanger! I have never seen any fitter deliver that amount of improvement in a player without any dramatic swing change. TXG is CLEARLY the best golf fitting outfit in the business. For sure, I will be getting up to Toronto later this year!

  • @gerrylawrence660
    @gerrylawrence660 Před 6 lety +2

    Another great job! Love the way you give us what we ask for, now its time for a 65+ that's losing distance and club speed. Was fit last year to a Titleist 917 D2, 10.5* with 1" shorter stock Diamante 60 shaft. You are convincing me to get refitted when I get back from a golf trip mid April.

  • @fujimanxt-3420
    @fujimanxt-3420 Před 6 lety +12

    Wow! That was eye-opening for me. I've always wondered about club fitting but have put it off, figuring I could solve the problem myself with just a little more work. But in the age of analytics your data did not lie. Your precision of analysis (and the resultant improvement in his accuracy and distance) speaks for itself. Well done and so informative! The data you supplied and the awesome way of working with the data and the golfer step-by-step to maximize his ability was awesome. Keep up the great work.
    Now, to find a GOOD club-fitter in my area!
