This, to me, is an amazing representation of the advancement of technology. Lindsey’s strike and delivery is so consistent, it becomes a matter of old v new technology. I have GOT to get a new driver!!
I just can't get over how great these videos are, especially the fitting vids. I just found the channel this week but have watched no less than 30 videos. I'm in the market for a new driver now and can't wait to go thru a similar process to this. Fantastic work guys.
Its great watching you guys work your magic, knowing after 15-20 shots hit, what shaft and head combo to put people in, you guys do some pretty amazing stuff!
Another terrific video. You have become a must watch. Great stuff today and thanks to your guest for stepping in front of the camera. It’s not always the best place to be in today’s social media space. Really fun to watch.
I am glad I found this channel rather recently. Really looking forward to checking out all of your past videos as well. Also looking forward to seeing you work with the more "average" type of swingers like myself and the majority of players out there and to get better educated on what might be something I can possibly be looking at to be a more consistent striker of the ball. Keep it up guys and thanks for your efforts.
Great video guys and love the passion. I switched from an R7 to Ping G about a year ago and the differences are significant. I'm sure I'm hitting 30-40 metres further and straighter. I'm surprised the girl hadn't changed sooner given her golfing background and potential exposure to new equipment.
Her swing is super impressive. Great video. I like watching people with good swings more than high handicappers personally. I could this ladies swing all day
Just look at that smile on Lindsay's face! ;) This is how a detail club fitting is done amazing job guys! And in fact, TPT Golf won't sell you a shaft without a fitting. Taylormade does not even offer the TPT line within their customization options.
In reference to your statement about older equipment and skill levels here is a true story for you. 2005-2011 I played the FT-5 stock Fuji shaft, 9.5 Draw bias. Back then I was a 7 index, all I did was play golf. Took several PAT tests, lots of tournaments etc. Starting to get back into this game again. Starting watching your video and thought, cant hurt to check it out right? Just got home from the range with my GBB whatever the damn name is, and a Fuli Atmos, black. WOW. After fiddling a bit with loft and lie, the trajectory is almost perfect and the ball is only about 7-8 yards of the line I am aiming on. The shaft is so smooth and glassy, I just barley step on the gas and it JUMPS off the face. bout 285 ish I would guess....not bad for an old guy. Thanks for these, they have been a huge help. Now I gotta hide all this information from my single digit wife shhhhhhhhhhh.... :)
Great video guys. I'm going for (what I hope will be) a proper fitting in a few weeks. This gives me great ideas as to what I should be looking for. When I got fitted two years ago, I don't think I was properly fit with my lack of consistency+terrible club fitter knowledge.
There's no Twist Face in the middle of the club!! Best punchline in Golf Equipment talk EVER 😎👍🏌️Great video Guys,as always!! Love the Channel,so pleased I found You!!!
What I like about your fitting, at least in the video, is there is no rushing to complete the process. Excellent, I have gotten a GCQuad for personal improvement recently and going to use it practice and improvement. You discussing those numbers are lessons. I hope to see a video on various clubs and what launch numbers are for different swing speeds. Thank you.
Great video could really see a lot of my characteristics in Lindsey’s swing results. From speed, shape, height, launch, spin and typical miss not as consistent as her but also struggling to find more distance and a bit more consistency as I’m generally able to predict my miss. Good job guys. Hopefully I can make a visit to check you guys out as it appears I’m in the area. Thanks.
Great job guys! I hope your next fitting sesh will be with someone who’s less consistent than Lindsay who I can tell is a birdie machine! Matt hit the nail on the head with his last comment towards the end of the video! Cheers!
Another brilliant video. Super educational. Thanks Ian. And if you’re serious about looking for that mid-high handicapper to come and film a future video, I’m game. Cheers!
Your content is amazing, listening to you guys speak shows your extremely passionate and knowledgeable. I’ve learned so much and have gained a lot from the videos you’ve made thus far. Keep them coming I will definitely be watching..! Great job!
This video really shows how club fitting is so important. I think Ian is great. He knows his stuff. Lindsey has a great swing. Hopefully, you gave her that club. LOL
Great video! I watched almost all your fitting videos and that's a good education. Thanks! Could you please post the key specs in this fitting, such as loft model, head loft etc? Really like to see more videos about fitting for average golfers (hcp 15-20 range, for example).
That's great to see, I would be putting my hand up to get fitted but my Bus Fare from Sydney is a little on the high side. Had a lesson with Sean the last time he came over. Hmm a TXG fitting and a catch up lesson with Sean, that would be a nice trip.
Great video again Ian! Super educational and reinforces that the TXG team knows how to help all types of golfers get the most out of available equipment. It is amazing that Lindsay was able to see a 30 yrd improvement with the correct fit for her game as it is today. You bring up a key point - even though we may have been fitted for clubs in the past, our swings are constantly evolving (due to age, flexibility, skill level change etc.). What cycle do you guys recommend for average golfers to go through a complete fitting process to recalibrate the clubs to the player? Every 2 or 3 years?
Thanks for the comment Anthony! It varies from player to player, as it depends on the amount their swing characteristics have changed. Every 2-3 years is a good general guideline though.
Wow, thanks for doing this video! Great to see a fitting for someone outside the higher speed male. One question on some of the numbers she was showing: is the 12 degrees of toe-up at impact something to be concerned about? How much does lie angle matter in a driver?
Good that you're getting into more of the average swing speeds. Could only dream of being as consistent as Lindsey. Question about the shaft choice. The TPT 16 is supposed to be more suited to her swing speed. Why did you choose the TPT 18 which is for a 70-80 mph swing speed?
I recently discovered your site and thoroughly enjoy it. Frankly, you are in a class by yourselves among golf sites for both high and low handicap golfers, both in terms of the detailed information you provide and your low-key professional approaches with clients. I have informed golfing friends about your site, referring to you as "the golf whisperers." That said, I have one suggestion. After viewing this particular video, I immediately did a web search for where I might find a used M4 (D type or neutral) and a TPT shaft to try out, as I have been experiencing similar issues as Lindsay with an older driver. I was shocked to find that the TPT shaft was nearly $500. I'm not sure how many of your viewers can afford a shaft of that price, but it would be helpful if at some point you could reveal the approximate prices of the gear you are finding to be the perfect fit for a client and possibly mention a couple less expensive alternatives to consider. I know you have expressed the need to inform fitters prior to sessions of budget needs, but for those without direct access to people like yourself, that pricing information would be extremely helpful as we try to improve our game, with helpful videos like yours, on our own. No need for additional cost-based fitting session videos, but just a mention of a less expensive alternative or two we might want to try out. Again, I have nothing but great things to say about your site, particularly the videos you've done on fitting mid and high handicappers. But especially now during Covid, with more and more individuals trying golf as their only outlet for exercise, it seems appropriate to provide general pricing information. It would only further enhance your reputation. Not to mention, learning the price of something like the TPT the way I did only serves to perpetuate the myth I often hear that golf is a "rich man's game", which I know it does not have to be. Thank you again for doing such terrific work. I cannot tell you how much it is appreciated and SO educational. Jim in California
I play off 16 hcp but am that more inconsistent player Matt was speaking of at the end. If you fancy flying me over from the UK, I'd be more than happy to get custom fit for a new driver, fairways and irons. ;-) Great vids guys.
Great video guys, love the in depth reviews and the number crunching. If you ever want someone to fit i would love to come and see you. I'm off 11 but the driver is one club i do struggle with. Recently been fitted for a driver at ag but looking at what you guys do compared to the fitting i had, it's light and day!!!! keep up the good work.
As usual a very interesting video. I will definitely be booking a fitting, and many others will as well no doubt. All things considered your knowledge can help mere mortals feel more competent and play better golf. I am looking forward to see how my off the shelf sticks work and potential for improvement. Thanks and keep the variety of players ( although as you say seeing Matt smash it is cool). If you need a older vict.....er....subject to use let me know. Matt has seen my WIG videos. lol...cheers. JM.
I started to write this comment in re: testing the twist face, but then rIght at the very end you did mention about the not getting to test the twist face because Lindsay is hitting it in the middle. Also looking forward to seeing the fitting for the rest of Lindsay's bag.
Love this channel. I would love to be a high handicap tester as I'm all over the place. I don't have an official handicap but shoot in the mid to high nineties. Would need to take some vacation time and fly in but I think I would really enjoy it.
Love the video. Great knowledge as usual. Question though for players like Lindsey if she goes her out to in and goes from in to out...How much would the club output change?
There would likely be more output, how much is hard to guess at. Lindsay is fairly neutral with her path already so maybe not a ton. For others making a much larger path change, the change in output could be significant. Good question!
Great video again gents. Question, I have a driver and 3 wood fitting next weekend in Maryland. They are waiting to get the TPT shafts to demo. I swing around 118 to 120 mph with a medium pace back swing and a quick transition. Should I wait for the TPT shafts to come in I think you mentioned in the video your getting great results from them. Thanks!! Keep the vide rolling!!
Great video guys... I've got a question I currently use a 2016 , 12° head m1 driver with an adela rouge stiff shaft that when I catch it flys about 220 and runs out to 240 ish unfortunately it was never really fitted to me and those shots are fewer than I'd like I recently had it cut down by an inch at the local produce shop my grouping has definitely came in but my distance has dropped off significantly so my question is this would getting fitted for an after market shaft give me more distance and consistency
I watch all of your videos. Love you guys and what you do. What is your backstory? How did you two get this going. This video put my over the edge. I'm taking my ptx irons to David Ayers in Charleston to hopefully get me more squared away.
In your opinion if someone use drivers like RBZ stage 2 and R1, do you think going to something newer like m2 or m4 will give any more distance? How do newer tm compare in spin and forgiveness vs the "old" classics?
How expensive is that shaft you fit Lindsay for ? I just got the M4 and was fitted w/the Atmos red 5 R flex. I've got xcalibur shafts through out my bag that I was fit for. Should u consider getting an xcalibur in my driver or something else ? (I'm a 12-15 handicap w/about 88 club head speed). Thank you so much ! Value your opinion.
The TPT shaft retails for $499, it is very good but of course we'd recommend trying it out first! Always best to try the driver with a variety of shafts to see what suits you best rather than trying to match the rest of your set.
Superb Vid Guys & Gal, 260yards and arrow straight, WOW that would be my Heavan! You are magicians, this is probably your best post yet! I like and thumbs up your intention to target slower less consistent ball strikers in future vids. If Manchester UK was nearer to Toronto I would offer myself as a guinea pig, put your viewers would probably die laughing!
Great video guys reallly impressed with your channel and presentation... keep it up!! I’ve ordered the M4 in Tensei 70 White as this has given me consistency, however my smash is well down (115mph club, around 1.32-1.35 smash, whereas the Project X Evenflow for example gave me 1.43 smash but sprayed it everywhere and went same distance due to more spin). Does lower smash mean bad fitting?
Matt, it can mean few things. Sometime launch monitors can be a little inconsistent on the club speed reading so the smash factor can be affected . It's very unlikely you would get such a low smash factor out of the TM M4. Sounds like a miss read to me. Thanks for watching.
What do think about the xcalibur shafts ? I was fit w/the Atmos red 5 reg flex shaft in the M4 (which I purchased). How do the xcalibur shafts compare to that ? Thanks again Ian. Would value you opinion !
Regarding MOI- are there drivers on the market that have reached the maximum MOI allowed by the USGA? How close are we to having most drivers sitting right on the MOI limit, just like they sit on the COR limit?
Loving this channel!!! Does that dramatic toe up #'s affect performance at all? Is that something people should be concerned about in drivers (obvious irons are different) Thanks for your help and answers! Ryan
Drivers are designed to be delivered toe up. A 10 or so roe up is fine. There would be problems if she delivered with no toe up as this would indicate very high handle and possible early extension
You guys are amazing! I completely agree with her. MAGICIANS! Very knowledgeable! But after she gains accuracy and distance. I would like to see the green moved farther back. So she doesn't get the extra 10 yards from rolling across the green. Please keep drivers in the fairway?
Thanks Cory! Yes you are right, the green does play a bit firmer in the software giving a few extra yards. We probably didn't expect she would hit it that far!! 😆😆😆
Great video! Very relevant to my swing. I swing about the same speed but not as well. 12 handicap up from an 8. I use an R15 with stock shaft that i've been reluctant to change as its a good fairway finder but i'm sure i could get much better performance with a good fitting. Not sure I would pony up $700 for the TPT shaft, but then again, if i had that level performance gain and feel, I would go for it in a minute! LOL thx
Hey TXG, great video! Do you guys do shaft fittings for current drivers? Just bought a new driver last year, so not interested in a whole new setup but I do think there is room for improvement in the shaft I am using.
Cloran, in order to get the most out of the fitting you definitely want to make sure you are making consistent contact and have some consistency to your shot shape. From there get yourself booked in for a fitting and let your fitter work their magic!!! Thanks for watching!!
We custom build every order, checking all the component specs and ensuring the customer gets exactly what they've ordered. That doesn't allow us to offer same-day service on clubs, but generally orders don't take too long. If someone is from out of town we can send their order directly.
Hi Guys, only came across your channel recently and i have to say great content!! I'm getting a driver fitting (replacing my SLDR) in a few weeks and seeing whats possible is really interesting (I might even refer to you when I meet them ;-) )
12-13 degree toe up at impact wow.....impressive she hits it that straight. Visually that much upright would drive me insane and I would feel like gonna hook off planet.....I know with lower loft clubs that is not a big deal from a performance perspective but 12 and 13 degrees up at impact seems quite extreme. I would also think attempting to hit a fade with that look at address would be much harder for sure. But great video
You guys did a great job with Lindsay K and I was super impressed with your work. I would love to have you guys do a fitting for me. I am a 12 handicap trending down and have taken golf swing lessons for years. I have been following the youtube videos from Bobby Lopez who really helped me understand how to make a proper swing. I have a local instructor I work with who, luckily for me, works with me on my swing and is pretty much on the same teaching path as Bobby Lopez. I am swinging a custom fit driver now but would like to take advantage of the new technology. Do you have a custom fitter in Minnesota?
You guys are beauts...love that you listen to the requests of the peepsand keep making vidoes in response. Lindsay is a fantastic coach as well (#ironladygolf)! My hands up to be a guinea pig !
Thank you Ian! We will probably be setting up something official on our website for our viewers to submit requests to participate in a video shoot. Mostly just in terms of logistics it will be easier for us to communicate through forms/email as opposed to through UA-cam comments and messaging. Stay tuned!
I am so addicted to this channel and the great videos. I can't wait to get myself into TXG and get my own fitting done.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
🙌
This channel is without a shadow of a doubt one of the best golf channels on UA-cam! Love this content!
This, to me, is an amazing representation of the advancement of technology. Lindsey’s strike and delivery is so consistent, it becomes a matter of old v new technology. I have GOT to get a new driver!!
The consistency of this swing is absolutely ridiculous. Great swing Lindsay and awesome fit!
When Lindsey hit the 261 yarder, loved that Ian tried to hold back on a nice big smile....yeah, I did my job again.
I just can't get over how great these videos are, especially the fitting vids. I just found the channel this week but have watched no less than 30 videos. I'm in the market for a new driver now and can't wait to go thru a similar process to this. Fantastic work guys.

Another terrific video. You have become a must watch. Great stuff today and thanks to your guest for stepping in front of the camera. It’s not always the best place to be in today’s social media space.
Really fun to watch.
After watching TXG videos, I am getting on a plane to get a fitting. I want their magic!
Wow Linzie is crushing my drive even with my average of 105mph. Good job and great swing.
I am glad I found this channel rather recently. Really looking forward to checking out all of your past videos as well. Also looking forward to seeing you work with the more "average" type of swingers like myself and the majority of players out there and to get better educated on what might be something I can possibly be looking at to be a more consistent striker of the ball. Keep it up guys and thanks for your efforts.
Great video guys and love the passion. I switched from an R7 to Ping G about a year ago and the differences are significant. I'm sure I'm hitting 30-40 metres further and straighter. I'm surprised the girl hadn't changed sooner given her golfing background and potential exposure to new equipment.
Her swing is super impressive. Great video. I like watching people with good swings more than high handicappers personally. I could this ladies swing all day
Just look at that smile on Lindsay's face! ;) This is how a detail club fitting is done amazing job guys! And in fact, TPT Golf won't sell you a shaft without a fitting. Taylormade does not even offer the TPT line within their customization options.
In reference to your statement about older equipment and skill levels here is a true story for you. 2005-2011 I played the FT-5 stock Fuji shaft, 9.5 Draw bias. Back then I was a 7 index, all I did was play golf. Took several PAT tests, lots of tournaments etc. Starting to get back into this game again. Starting watching your video and thought, cant hurt to check it out right? Just got home from the range with my GBB whatever the damn name is, and a Fuli Atmos, black. WOW. After fiddling a bit with loft and lie, the trajectory is almost perfect and the ball is only about 7-8 yards of the line I am aiming on. The shaft is so smooth and glassy, I just barley step on the gas and it JUMPS off the face. bout 285 ish I would guess....not bad for an old guy. Thanks for these, they have been a huge help. Now I gotta hide all this information from my single digit wife shhhhhhhhhhh.... :)
Really nice video. It felt like she had a sense of renewed confidence with the driver and was cool to see.
Great video guys. I'm going for (what I hope will be) a proper fitting in a few weeks. This gives me great ideas as to what I should be looking for. When I got fitted two years ago, I don't think I was properly fit with my lack of consistency+terrible club fitter knowledge.

That was amazing!! Really good video to show how technology and a competent club fitter can help a player get the most out of their ability.
21:01 says it all. Her reaction here was perfect!
This video looks really amazing and many people will be really excited. Please invite more NORMAL golfers!!!! and show the magic of fitting!!
We filmed a video on this yesterday John so we will post in later this week.
Great job guys! I hope your next fitting sesh will be with someone who’s less consistent than Lindsay who I can tell is a birdie machine! Matt hit the nail on the head with his last comment towards the end of the video! Cheers!
to be honest: looking every day for a new video. I'm addicted too😄👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
HAHA!! This is great, you've been with us since the start and we honestly can't thank you enough!!
This was one of your coolest videos, that Lindsay is a machine ;)
Thanks Vito. We appreciate you tuning in!!
This is a great video to illustrate the value of club fitting and what can be had!!
oh guys, great video again. right on target for us who just swing in the 90´s!!! the tpt is obviously working.
Another brilliant video. Super educational. Thanks Ian. And if you’re serious about looking for that mid-high handicapper to come and film a future video, I’m game. Cheers!
Another great video. The best of its genre. How do these guys not have 50,000 subscribers?
Would you mind telling 46,000 friends about us? 🤣🤣
Your content is amazing, listening to you guys speak shows your extremely passionate and knowledgeable. I’ve learned so much and have gained a lot from the videos you’ve made thus far. Keep them coming I will definitely be watching..! Great job!
This video really shows how club fitting is so important. I think Ian is great. He knows his stuff. Lindsey has a great swing. Hopefully, you gave her that club. LOL
Really appreciate the support Jay!! We'll hook Lindsay up!!
Liking how in depth u guys go. Good stuff.
Really enjoyed this. I can relate to Linsey’s swing speed. I wish I could relate to her fantastic swing.
Big 👍🏻 for bringing in this swing speed player.
These videos are so much fun to watch!
This one was great! I just got an M4 D type and I can say without a doubt - twistface works! I have lots of experience with mis-hits!
Great video and what a great golf swing.
Great video! I watched almost all your fitting videos and that's a good education. Thanks! Could you please post the key specs in this fitting, such as loft model, head loft etc? Really like to see more videos about fitting for average golfers (hcp 15-20 range, for example).

The TPT is so stable, it's no problem to go a little softer as long as you don't lose consistency.
I recently discovered your site and thoroughly enjoy it.

Ian @ 21:53 "I wonder what my Harry Potter name would be?, cause I'm a freakin wizard"
Best golf videos on UA-cam
Keep up the good work!
I play off 16 hcp but am that more inconsistent player Matt was speaking of at the end.
If you fancy flying me over from the UK, I'd be more than happy to get custom fit for a new driver, fairways and irons. ;-) Great vids guys.
So much knowledge and delivered perfectly... great job guys 👍
Favorite new gold channel. Love the info. Well done! Keep it up!!
Great video guys, love the in depth reviews and the number crunching. If you ever want someone to fit i would love to come and see you. I'm off 11 but the driver is one club i do struggle with. Recently been fitted for a driver at ag but looking at what you guys do compared to the fitting i had, it's light and day!!!! keep up the good work.

Smile or her face said it all - that is female tour level 260 down the middle of the fairway quality - well done.
I agree that more videos with average swing speeds would be informative.
Love this channel. I would love to be a high handicap tester as I'm all over the place. I don't have an official handicap but shoot in the mid to high nineties. Would need to take some vacation time and fly in but I think I would really enjoy it.
Well done guys, another great vid.
great video guys! so informative and numbers don't lie!
Thanks again for another awesome vid Ian !! I
Love the video. Great knowledge as usual. Question though for players like Lindsey if she goes her out to in and goes from in to out...How much would the club output change?

Should I wait for the TPT shafts to come in I think you mentioned in the video your getting great results from them. Thanks!! Keep the vide rolling!!
TPT makes excellent shafts, worth waiting for.
Super cool I play an m4 and is around her speed. Was the loft 9.5..?
Great video! Hope to see the comparison/stats of her old shaft matrix xcon5 with m4 head, and tpt shaft with her R9 head. Thanks
Are you Lydia Ko, LPGA player?
Great video guys...
I've got a question I currently use a 2016 , 12° head m1 driver with an adela rouge stiff shaft that when I catch it flys about 220 and runs out to 240 ish unfortunately it was never really fitted to me and those shots are fewer than I'd like I recently had it cut down by an inch at the local produce shop my grouping has definitely came in but my distance has dropped off significantly so my question is this would getting fitted for an after market shaft give me more distance and consistency
It's possible Rodney, would need to see your ball flight numbers to make a better recommendation
Thanks I've booked a session on track man for the end of the month when I have a few days off work .
Looking forward to seeing more videos.....
Loving your videos guys, wish i was closer (u.k) look forward to a mid h/c fitting review
Coming later this week 😉
I watch all of your videos. Love you guys and what you do. What is your backstory? How did you two get this going. This video put my over the edge. I'm taking my ptx irons to David Ayers in Charleston to hopefully get me more squared away.

Should u consider getting an xcalibur in my driver or something else ? (I'm a 12-15 handicap w/about 88 club head speed). Thank you so much ! Value your opinion.
The TPT shaft retails for $499, it is very good but of course we'd recommend trying it out first! Always best to try the driver with a variety of shafts to see what suits you best rather than trying to match the rest of your set.
Superb Vid Guys & Gal, 260yards and arrow straight, WOW that would be my Heavan! You are magicians, this is probably your best post yet! I like and thumbs up your intention to target slower less consistent ball strikers in future vids. If Manchester UK was nearer to Toronto I would offer myself as a guinea pig, put your viewers would probably die laughing!
Great video guys reallly impressed with your channel and presentation... keep it up!! I’ve ordered the M4 in Tensei 70 White as this has given me consistency, however my smash is well down (115mph club, around 1.32-1.35 smash, whereas the Project X Evenflow for example gave me 1.43 smash but sprayed it everywhere and went same distance due to more spin). Does lower smash mean bad fitting?
Matt, it can mean few things. Sometime launch monitors can be a little inconsistent on the club speed reading so the smash factor can be affected . It's very unlikely you would get such a low smash factor out of the TM M4. Sounds like a miss read to me.
Thanks for watching.
Thanks Ian, that alleviates my fear - Keep up the good work with the videos
great video , greetings from Ireland
Another great video, keep them coming.
What do think about the xcalibur shafts ? I was fit w/the Atmos red 5 reg flex shaft in the M4 (which I purchased). How do the xcalibur shafts compare to that ? Thanks again Ian. Would value you opinion !
Regarding MOI- are there drivers on the market that have reached the maximum MOI allowed by the USGA? How close are we to having most drivers sitting right on the MOI limit, just like they sit on the COR limit?
Good question, we'll make a note to talk more about MOI in upcoming videos. It's a big story for this season with drivers.
Loving this channel!!!
Does that dramatic toe up #'s affect performance at all? Is that something people should be concerned about in drivers (obvious irons are different)
Thanks for your help and answers!
Ryan
Drivers are designed to be delivered toe up. A 10 or so roe up is fine. There would be problems if she delivered with no toe up as this would indicate very high handle and possible early extension
Could the shaft length in the newer taylor made have created the added clubhead speed?
We had both built to 45" - good question though!
That was a fun and educational video.
Great video, loved watching someone who driver swing speed is close mine
You guys are amazing! I completely agree with her. MAGICIANS! Very knowledgeable! But after she gains accuracy and distance. I would like to see the green moved farther back. So she doesn't get the extra 10 yards from rolling across the green. Please keep drivers in the fairway?
Thanks Cory! Yes you are right, the green does play a bit firmer in the software giving a few extra yards. We probably didn't expect she would hit it that far!! 😆😆😆
TXG Tour Experience Golf Wow! Thanks for the instant response!
Great video! Very relevant to my swing. I swing about the same speed but not as well. 12 handicap up from an 8. I use an R15 with stock shaft that i've been reluctant to change as its a good fairway finder but i'm sure i could get much better performance with a good fitting. Not sure I would pony up $700 for the TPT shaft, but then again, if i had that level performance gain and feel, I would go for it in a minute! LOL thx
Love the videos, wish you were in Milwaukee. My swing speed is around 105 and I am a 20 handicap, roughly
Thanks Jesse. Take a trip down to see our friends in Chicago at clubchampiongolf.com/locations. They are awesome.
TXG Tour Experience Golf I see that they use trackman... what is the difference of a trackman fitting vs the gc quad?
Hey TXG, great video! Do you guys do shaft fittings for current drivers? Just bought a new driver last year, so not interested in a whole new setup but I do think there is room for improvement in the shaft I am using.
Yes absolutely!
I need to get fit for a driver... but I don't know if I should work on stabilizing my swing first. What's your advice?
Cloran, in order to get the most out of the fitting you definitely want to make sure you are making consistent contact and have some consistency to your shot shape. From there get yourself booked in for a fitting and let your fitter work their magic!!! Thanks for watching!!
So does the customer walk out of your store with the club they were fitted with or do you order a club to be sent to them?
We custom build every order, checking all the component specs and ensuring the customer gets exactly what they've ordered. That doesn't allow us to offer same-day service on clubs, but generally orders don't take too long. If someone is from out of town we can send their order directly.
Hi Guys, only came across your channel recently and i have to say great content!!
I'm getting a driver fitting (replacing my SLDR) in a few weeks and seeing whats possible is really interesting (I might even refer to you when I meet them ;-) )
Very informative!!!!! Love the channel.
When getting fit for a new driver, do you always recommend bringing in your old one to compare numbers?
Generally people do, not required but it's great to see how your current driver compares.
12-13 degree toe up at impact wow.....impressive she hits it that straight. Visually that much upright would drive me insane and I would feel like gonna hook off planet.....I know with lower loft clubs that is not a big deal from a performance perspective but 12 and 13 degrees up at impact seems quite extreme. I would also think attempting to hit a fade with that look at address would be much harder for sure. But great video
It looks like the GC2 software is giving a little extra rollout over the green rather than the fairway, maybe adding a few yards of roll
Maybe a couple extra, not a lot though.
You guys did a great job with Lindsay K and I was super impressed with your work. I would love to have you guys do a fitting for me. I am a 12 handicap trending down and have taken golf swing lessons for years. I have been following the youtube videos from Bobby Lopez who really helped me understand how to make a proper swing. I have a local instructor I work with who, luckily for me, works with me on my swing and is pretty much on the same teaching path as Bobby Lopez. I am swinging a custom fit driver now but would like to take advantage of the new technology. Do you have a custom fitter in Minnesota?
We are just in Toronto at the moment - not too far from Minnesota though is it? 😉😆
You guys are beauts...love that you listen to the requests of the peepsand keep making vidoes in response. Lindsay is a fantastic coach as well (#ironladygolf)! My hands up to be a guinea pig !
Never been fitted for clubs as never thought I was good enough but thinking of it this year . Do you have to be a certain level. (Consistency.)
There's benefits for every player Paul!
I really need to get a driver fitting i'm hitting the ball with about 95-100 mph club-head speed and getting it only 240... with roll. :-(
Just curious what driver does Matt game including shaft?
Ping G400 LST 10º (on big minus setting) with TPT 15 LKP/LT/LW shaft
How expensive is the shaft that you fit Lindsay for ?
Where are you located? Would like a fitting. Very informative.
We're in Toronto, Canada
Great video for the average golfer I'm a disabled golfer playing off 8 I've never been custom fitted I'd love participate in your videos
Thank you Ian! We will probably be setting up something official on our website for our viewers to submit requests to participate in a video shoot. Mostly just in terms of logistics it will be easier for us to communicate through forms/email as opposed to through UA-cam comments and messaging. Stay tuned!
I was waiting for Lindsey to walk Ian to the cash register :-)
I have a m4 driver looking for more distance currently using ad graphic design yellow my swing speed is 107
Have you been on a launch monitor to get your ball flight stats James?
