Tom Gets Fit - Over 60 Driver Fitting

- We have a new player in our bays. Tom is in his early 60's and hasn't bought new clubs in 25 years. He is starting off a full bag fitting today with his driver. His goal is to hit it a bit farther, higher, and more consistent. Watch how these drivers turn out!

This demonstrates the difference between a typical fitting and a great fitting. A great fitting will include an element of teaching. The golfers biggest issue was angle of attack, that swing needed to be changed before the club. If the golfer could hit up with the driver by 2 or 3 degrees then he would gain 20 or even 30 yards immediately. Instead we had the fitter trying to fix the issue by adding loft to the driver. With Tom's speed he should be aiming for a 250 yard carry. Also why was there no discussion about what shaft to pair with the driver head, is that a different video?
Should have used the data to sell him some lessons instead of a driver. That AoA 6-7 down with a driver. Fixing that would give him the distance and height he was after. Fix that and then test the modern tech....would be game changing for the guy.
He would add 30 yards carry if he would work on his attack angle.
My clubhead speed is only a couple mph more but i hit up on the ball and therefore get about 30 yards more carry (250 yards). It's a shame he isn't making the most of that speed he's got.
5-7 degrees down is way too much. Needs to get that below 3 degrees down at least. I hit 1 degree down at about 90 mph, with 2400 spin and carry 215, total 240.
Never talked about what different shafts he was trying.
Attack angle -7.9 yuk, this guy could do more with lessons how to hit up with driver which will get more distance
From my experience of watching fitting I find that there is 2 types of golfer.
1 - Golfer who's doesn't want or is interested in changing their swing regardless of how it is and just wants to be fitted into some new clubs.
2 - Golfer who is open to swing changes whilst also being fit.
I can only guess that this guy is Golfer number 1, if not and he was open to swing changes then in my eyes this was a bad fitting as the fitter should have addressed his angle of attack, club path and face to path before looking at any new driver. Also deleting all the bad shots just to make the numbers look better is not something that should be done.
I am surprised that he is wearing a Mizuno shirt and a Mizuno chart yet did not try the JPX 221 Irons or STX Driver. I was just fitted with the Mizuno and did test the stealth, Titleist and rogue clubs. I still thought the method was well done and I liked both videos.
T the ball higher and hit up..... save $$$$ on driver
Not a fitting. Just trying different drivers.
Condescending at best!
