    Wow! What a timely video. 2 nights ago , I started my build from scratch with master rank in mind and we came to the same conclusions on archetype, stat priority, and fitting choice. Guess I’m on the right track. What a confirmation

      That’s right. They just finished the last season a week or so ago. They have donations to fully fund the next season so we should see it kicking off in a couple of weeks. Register with them and then play in the first challenge circuit event. That will then place you in a league. Good luck!

    isnt the final skill in the final column (Putt Path) and not roll which is Level 1? meaning you have Roll activated?

      I have 2 points in the final column for putting which is Putt Weight. Putt Path is 3 and as you say roll is 1 which should be avoided.

    Calibration. I’ve come across mix views about calibration. What do players at your level recommend? As a swing Improves & more consistent, do you recalibrating? Thanks!

    • @fairway2heaven
      @fairway2heaven  3 місяці тому +1

      I would absolutely recommend you recalibrate if your swing tempo has changed, or if you have a controller update. Once you have developed a consistent swing tempo, which is the most important thing, recalibrate several times to get the ball flight how you want. Personally I have calibrated so that I can hit a slight fast or slight slow through feel. It lets me move the ball into a pin. My go to shot is a slight fast as it flies a little further and is better in windy conditions.

      That’s great news. Well done. Do look out for the promotional events that happen - these are on the platinum tour but open to everyone. I jumped from CC-B straight to Kinetic about a year ago due to a strong performance in one of them.
      Glad the settings are working for you. Great playing to be challenging for a tournament win!!!

    • @fairway2heaven
      @fairway2heaven  2 місяці тому +1

      That’s awesome. Look forward to seeing you in Kinetic soon! The course for CC is very score able this week. Wasn’t able to get my course guide out yet on it but it plays very different from the back tees. It’s one of those courses with hazards at driving range from the back, but which you clear easily from the mid or front tees. Lots of holes that favor a left to right shot tee shot as well. Good for a lefty player like me.
      Early in the round avoid going over the greens. Some tricky recovery shots if you do. There are quite a few greens later with backstops but the standard green speed is too slow to really take advantage of them much. Let me know how you get on.

    Trasition doesnt make the perfect tempo window bigger, timing does

    • @fairway2heaven
      @fairway2heaven  2 місяці тому +1

      If you read the tooltip on the archetype screen it says for timing ‘Timing scales the hook / slice forgiveness window’. That is the overall grey bar not the white perfect bar. It reduces the amount that the ball curves in the air.
      If you want to see some testing on it though, check out Ma_Kachada’s video. Link here:
      ua-cam.com/video/p53CK23lwf4/v-deo.htmlsi=NpCLfVqbF_b_vIO8
      In the video he demonstrates the larger white bar for higher transition.

      Just tested it and when I go from Rythmn to powerhouse my perfect tempo window gets smaller even though powerhouse has more transition

    • @fairway2heaven
      @fairway2heaven  2 місяці тому

      It’s a combination of both. Higher timing increases the starting width of the swing foregiveness which is a combination of the grey bar and white perfect tempo. Because the overall gets wider so does the white perfect tempo bar.
      From recollection (I have my swing timer turned off), as you swing the club back these bars shrink in size (past 100% swing). How much they shrink is based on your transition stat. A higher stat and they shrink less and so it results in a wider perfect tempo bar.
      I remember seeing someone test this, and maybe it wasn’t Ma_Kachada. If I can find it again I will link it in a comment.
      I might be off here, but doesn’t change the build at all as I favor timing for the reduction in how much the ball turns.

    I'm curious why you focused on lie range for driver when you are hitting from the tee. Does it impact the lie range of the shot where it comes to a stop?

    • @fairway2heaven
      @fairway2heaven  2 місяці тому +1

      I didn’t particularly. Power, Swing Path then Timing were my focus. Just how the fittings fell for those stats. Lie range is really only useful if you need to hit a driver off the deck to a long par 5. A high lie range will increase how far it goes which can make a very long hole reachable.

      @@fairway2heaven Thanks. That explains it. Another question - I notice you use both a 3 wood and a 3 hybrid. Have you tried swapping the 3 wood for an extra iron and if so where would you spend the extra points for the archetype?

    • @fairway2heaven
      @fairway2heaven  6 годин тому

      Sorry. Missed your comment. I certainly wouldn’t drop my 3 wood. With run it goes around 300 yds which brings all the par 5s into play. It is also great for when there is danger at Driver range.
      The hybrid is a personal preference thing. It flies a little higher than the equivalent iron which helps with stopping the ball on the green when playing into long par 3s or par 5s.

  • @BrockMak
    @BrockMak 3 місяці тому

    But what if you are using a "No Hybrids" bag?

    • @fairway2heaven
      @fairway2heaven  3 місяці тому +2

      I would strongly recommend that you do because the hybrid ball flight flies higher and sits softer than a long iron making it a great club for long par 3s or shots into par 5s.
      But if that doesn’t persuade you …
      On Fittings you still want to use a similar strategy but try to get your 3 Iron presumably long enough to bridge the gap to your 3 wood.
      On Skills, you will have 11 skill points to allocate. The following skills are reasonable alternatives.
      1st column: Zen Garden
      2nd: Range Finder
      3rd: Tee Timing/ Beach Bum
      6th: Blacksmith
      7th: Double Major / Easy Reads
      I do think that the hybrid bag is better overall because these alternative skills are not ideal.

    • @BrockMak
      @BrockMak 3 місяці тому

      @@fairway2heaven The reason I don't need to use hybrids is because I'm a powerhouse build. I rely heavily on my driver, 3 and 5 wood, long irons and especially my wedges. I get more chip ins to avoid long-range putts.

    @johnsullivan6843 25 днів тому

    I choose not to use a hybrid because it’s one single club that needs three fittings (as opposed to say the iron fittings which can be used in conjunction with every single iron plus pitching wedge).
    And, sad as I am to admit this to the world, I also created a spread sheet that mathematically analyzes what each fitting will do with EVERY other fitting for ALL the different irons under the kingdom of each archetype.
    All that and I’m still a not a particularly talented three-click player. 😂😂😂😂

    • @fairway2heaven
      @fairway2heaven  23 дні тому +1

      That’s dedication. 🙂
      I like the ball flight of the hybrid. It flies a little higher and stops quicker when lofted. Also at this stage I have so many fittings I have maxed them out but agree there is a little more synergy when using just irons.
      Good luck!

    Final skill column info is wrong. It is cumulative, making unlocking tier 3 will help swing path, timing, and transition.

      Well the TGC Tours has a separate league for 3 click players. It is perfectly reasonable to separate the two as for the best 3 click players the game is too easy. They are shooting 20 under a round and better which no swing stick player can compete against.
