  • Today we have Peter in the bay. A slower swing speed slicer of the golf ball who is hoping to shave some strokes off his game by hitting the driver longer and straighter.

    A big hand to Peter for being a good sport. As a former OTT slicer I feel his pain, but ultimately he needs to fix his path to a great degree, which is a bit beyond the scope of a fitting. Great work as always by Ian and Michael.

    At what point should you just get a lesson instead of a new driver?

    • @lawbinson
      @lawbinson Місяць тому +5

      Basically, if you see you’re hitting down on driver, you’re going to benefit more from a bit of a lesson than a fitting. Especially if you’re seeing AoA -5 or more. Same with if you have excessive face to path issues. The club can correct a bit, but not extremes.

    In fittings, do you try and retro fit the old club, and if not successful, do you then try new equipment?

    I thought this was great to see what can be done with a slow/normal swing speed. I've seen a number of YT transformations where the guy/women has a swing speed of 97-105 and the worst matched driver. Even I could transform the numbers. Peter had some swing faults, good to see that CC does provide help. I like seeing those with perfect or in-perfect slow swings get maximised.

      Thank you. Just getting a fitting can be a bit stressful...now add the cameras and a gallery and to say I was quite nervous would be an understatement. This was done a few weeks ago and it has been months since I have been able to swing a club. Ian and Mike were excellent and I most certainly left there knowing I need to take some lessons. I'm sure this was a waste of time for mid to low handicappers but I sincerely hope there are a few out there that could relate to an average golfer who very much enjoys playing and would like to improve.

    Great job, Peter. Would be a large bit nerve wracking to be on video. Some work to do to get used to new feels, but potential to unlock a huge gain and make driver more of a weapon. Wishing Peter well on his journey. Hope he gets there. Made gains in my driver dispersion and distance. The huge smile on my face was awesome when I had that first day of things fully clicking. You’ll get there, Peter.

    Watch his head positions in practice swings when the ball isn’t there…totally different.

    I'm curious, as a fitter in situations like this, how much you fit the club for the current swing vs., let's say, after he takes a couple of lessons and his path straightens out. Would he, theoretically, in the near future, have to get refit/ readjust his driver if he successfully straightens out his club path? Love the content lads.

      Buddy, did you see his swing and swing path? That's not something you can fix in a fit session. Ian did a fantastic job giving him some minor fixes he can do to "work toward a more in to out path", but in order to actually work on his core swing he'll need lessons.

He just couldn't understand face to path as much as Ian tried. He don't need any crazy lessons. He needs to understand and trust physics.

If you were looking to see the actual benefits of current driver and shaft tech you would have made the swing change prior to testing anything. Great video though.
