If you are pass 60, use a 12 degree driver. Period.

This was very reassuring to know I think I have the right setup . 10.5 driver, 16 degree 3 wood, 20 degree 4 hybrid, 6-P irons, 50 degree , 56 degree.

Interesting stuff

Excellent video! I do not know my driver speed but my 7 iron is 84-86mph. Current irons start at 5 iron, 22 degrees of loft. Looking to see what loft hybrids I should get to add to the 5-UW irons.

The improvements in the ball and clubs since 1990s has been unbelievable. In that period of time I have gone from 30s to 60s and only lost a little distance. BUT I no longer try to hit say 4 irons and the longest iron I have is a 6 - switching to Hybrids and Woods (7, 9, 5, 3) was the best thing I ever did. The second was using a softer Urethane ball - the Pro balls are great to chip and putt, and also with the Driver, but with the PW 9 8 7 irons I lose 10-15 yards. Get the right ball and clubs as you age is the best advice I can give. My 7 iron goes 140.

With no contract, 95 out of 100 would use pro v

How about looking at iron use based on top 20 GIR rankings? Just a suggestion.

I’ve switched from Pro V’s to Wilson Staff Model, and I’ll never go back. They’re longer off the tee, with better spin around the greens. Phenomenal, yet very overlooked golf ball, in my opinion.

Surprised Bridgestone doesn't get more love considering they've partnered with Tiger for so long. The Bridgestone Tour B X really is the best ball all-around IMO

The MaxFli Tour and Tour X balls are just as good as any of these for 2/3 the price.

4:52 That looks like a wild slice swing.

Tiger did not use a Bridgestone ball in all his 15 major wins!!

seems like half pros like 10.5 and the other half are 8.5 - 9.5

They play whoever is paying them.

I am 22 with a heavy sports background. I started around Febuary of this year. I hit my 7 like 165 i hope that once i get more consistent i can make it do that more regularly.

I'm still looking for the best drunk driving utility iron

Now this is what we need - actual data

Carry ping g30 19 and 22 degrees,fairway wood 4 in 17 degrees good spread for longer approach shots.

Grew up learning the game with 1,3,5,7,9 wood. Have hybrids down to 7 . 8 - gw irons. Too easy to hit to pass up

I was clearing 180 with a 7iron.... The first hole at the club I grew up on was 190 yards.

Do they make them with no offset I usually hook the ball especially out of the rough

high lofted woods 9 or 11 anyone?

Always enjoy these insights - usual comparisons to what an ordinary golfer does. Personally still prefer a long iron to a hybrid.

I started using 4 and 5 hybrids 10 years ago. My irons start at 7 on down. 58 years old playing to 2 hcp these days. Oh I’ve added a 7 wood last year. These clubs are so easy to hit.

Wild seeing some of the pros,both male and female,rocking bags that start irons at a 6 or 7.

Don't take range ball distances to heart,way off

Thanks for your efforts

Very interesting seeing the backup drivers. Seemed like the sweet spot on my Paradym Triple Diamond shrank during the cold months so I went back to a TSr3. I enjoyed it, traded them both for a Ping 10K. Sweet spot doesn't get any bigger.

Good stuff as always, Keep it up! Thank you

Really helpful analysis, thanks for sharing and your comments

I found a olimar9- hybrid....its 42 degrees

Really Depends on path of Swing. and Spin Rate. My Old Driver I had spin Rate of 4000 RPM which ment Driver acted like a 9 Iron with how quickly it stop. Moved to Paradym Triple Diamond with low spin Shaft and now get twice the roll out.. with same loft as previous driver.

65y 10hc 7i= 149m carry. 5i= 172m carry. what ever I'm doing wrong, I'm happy.

They should have an ipad or phone

Id like to know more about shat flex

4:20 is the hardest to buy. NO senior golfers use a combination of blades and cavity backed?

They just need to add in the percentage they get paid to play a certain type of shaft specially in their driver and Threewood. And their irons, I know that’s more of a field thing. But the driver in the Threewood is more for selling to the public.

Great info thanks

Club marking should evolve. Screw numbering sets from 3-9. Every club should now be marked with its loft. How far do you hit a 36°?

Good stuffs and thanks! Just wondering if you can do a video focussing on the Graphite shaft for Irons for Champion Tours. Want to know the percentages for Graphite shaft on Iron only as I am switching to graphite as it is easier on the body.

Harry Higgs uses DG 105s x-flex in his irons. Kind of interesting for a young pro to use such a relatively lightweight shaft.

Wonderful video.

Excellent information and great presentation

Great as usual

First

It’s all about money and who sponsors who

How many of these players are still sponsored? Most Irons don’t differ that much and if you get them for free plus a nice paycheck, as a player you pick the highest bidder.

Honestly, the greatest piece of advice I ever got was a few weeks ago when older gentleman stopped me at the range and said, “if you try to swing with less power, the drive will feel smoother , and the drive will eventually go farther and more importantly, more accurately.” Boy did that click.

The attachment of club head to shaft at heel make the mass in the club head twist the shaft and toe of the club open and closed during the swing the more mass there is in the toe of the club the more this occurs. In the hands of an experienced golfer the sensation of the club heat TRYING to twist in the hands provides valuable feedback and situational awareness of face angle during the swing allowing them to adjust it with their superior hand-brain-coordination if it isn’t correct for the shot being planned; straight or straight. The pros seldom try to hit and shot dead straight because tilting the backspin axis like this \ for a fade ( or like this / for a draw ) ‘takes one side of the hole out of play’. Karsten Solheim if PING is credited with creating the ‘high-MOI’ design in the 1950 after taking up golf in his 30’s and realizing the toe bias of the putters and blade irons were twisting in his hands for the reason explained above. Being an engineer is realized that could be fixed by moving mass from toe to sole and heel of the club in his Anser putter and PING EYE designs. The heel-sole-toe balance is designed to help the face of the club stay automatically square, not to the straight target line but rather the curved swing path the club head travels on. Due to the physics of mass and movement cavity back clubs will not twist in the hands during the swing as much as a 1960s MB blade will and will deflect less at impact if ball strikes isn’t perfect. Some marketing wonk decided to call that “Game Improvement” when it us actually “Mistake Mitigation”. To the extent they are more “Forgiving” it is because they mask the underlying fact the golfer’s swing has room for improvement. This has resulted in three, four generations of golfer believing that buying the next NEW and MORE FORGIVING set of clubs will improve their SKILL. They will improve SCORE to some degree but mask the feedback that is needed to improve toe and face control like the pros do. I’m old enough to have started in 1983 with a set of blade irons and purchased and regripped several sets of MB blades from the 1970s to understand the differences. I found a set of PING EYE2 irons 3i - LW at a thrift store for $60 and played those for about ten years before going back to less ‘forgiving’ but better ‘feedback’ in a $400 set of circa 2009 PING S57s and at age 72 recently switched to circa 2000 Mizuno T-Zoids I picked up for $120 because like the pros I never try to hit a full swing shot dead straight and and like the feedback of the lower MOI head designs when shaping shots 😊.
