    We are on week 3 of lock down here in NorCal and was told we have another 4 weeks coming. Your content and this series really does provide a great distraction, and source of information. Truly appreciated guys. Keep these series coming.

    Great series of videos, can't wait for outdoor feedback.
    1.There is more of a wrist set at the top of swing now. (A little Rahm/ Sergio lag)
    2. Mavrik, distance aside, always appeared to curve less.
    3. Can hot melt be removed

  • @nicholasmartin3540

    I bought a Mavrik SZ 3 wood this year and I can say that's probably the hottest 3 wood I ever hit, so im not surprised that the driver is also very hot and very good. On top of that, Matt was really bringing it in the finals. Good job guys 👍

  • @joesun913
    @joesun913 4 роки тому +1

    Amazing how different clubs work well for different golfers. MGS Most Wanted had the MAVRIK close to the bottom of their 2020 list. Again, absolutely great content. Stay healthy out there!

    @thevisionaryelitist 4 роки тому +1

    Outrageous performance from Matt and Mavereecky! Boys thanks for injecting a bit of fun into our lives at the moment- we all sure need it. Hats off. Still keen to test SIM for myself as the 56 deg lie appeals to my big left miss 🤪

    • @clubchampionmedia

      SIM is a great driver for that, especially with the weight in the toe

  • @eugenedizon48
    @eugenedizon48 4 роки тому

    Thanks to you two! Your videos confirmed my decision to trade-in my Epic Flash SZ for the Mavrik standard. I further optimized my Mavrik with the HZRDUS Black 62 shaft and Titleist AVX/ProV1X Left dash to reduce my spin. Your videos help me and others make logical decisions with our golf equipment!

  • @parmanduke
    @parmanduke 4 роки тому

  • @BFLefty
    @BFLefty 4 роки тому

    From one lefty to another...DAMN!!!! We now need a Matty imitation contest and who can get close to that ball speed with a 3/4 length back swing. It’s all in the hips I guess. Truly amazing to watch you swing that fast and stay balanced. I didn’t love Mavrik in my fitting recently. Ping G410plus with Oban Devotion 75x was the ideal combo. Love it. Keep’em coming. All I can do is watch dust accumulate on the sticks.

  • @marcck5597

  • @thatguymark8381
    @thatguymark8381 4 роки тому

    Another great series guys! The new evaluation format seems to have influenced the match-up's somewhat ... looks like every match-up winner had the higher total yards AND lower average offline yards, but offline yards provided a way to tie-break a close match-up. In a couple of cases one club may have had a higher ballspeed, but the other had more optimal (for DirtyDog) launch and spin.

  • @erikjoven2388
    @erikjoven2388 4 роки тому

    There is the ridge out there - just to the right of center a bit after the bunker - and a few of those Mavrik shots were just long enough and had just the right draw as a lefty to lay into that ridge and get thrown an extra 20 yards in some cases - unreal

  • @bigjuzzo8680
    @bigjuzzo8680 4 роки тому

    I play a 8* SLDR turned down to 6*, similar SS to Matty boi just a bit more aggressive. Had my head set on the sim cause it's 8* and can turn it down to 6* but now u got me questioning my thinking. Can't get fit cause of the lock down here in Western Australia and have to purchase before July so will be watching the optimisation with great interest. Great stuff boyz, luv ya work!!!!!

  • @Citizensofthecountry

    @mcentecpg164 4 роки тому +2

    Said it earlier in the bracket but that longer backswing just looks so good, even seeing some shaft lean at the top of the backswing 😍 really wanted Speedzone to pull it out of the bag but was always going to be a one sided fight 😂

  • @Tijiel
    @Tijiel 4 роки тому

    Best golf channel on YT and bracket even better this year! Love that Mavrik won, feel Callaway has the best recipe on Drivers and woods at the latest years, especially on yardage. But combining that with less offline seems to be a killer.

  • @paulkoppenheffer5323
    @paulkoppenheffer5323 4 роки тому

  • @danielcohen3159
    @danielcohen3159 4 роки тому

    I found a good deal on a Mavrik 9º head and got it for myself for my birthday. Only a few rounds in, but I can confirm it is long and forgiving. Like...Ping forgiving. Seriously. I was struck by how little curvature Matt's shots seemed to have with the Mavrik, and I've noticed the same thing with it... albeit 100 yards shorter than Matt's drives.
    Pull hooks just don't pull that far or hook as much. When I come over the top on one it usually hangs on and finishes in play to the right (usually). And FAR less drop-off in distance when I lose one left or right, compared to Epic Flash. With a good center strike, they're pretty much the same - maybe a touch longer. I'm very impressed so far. Golf courses are still open here in Tennessee, and I'm going to play (safely) as long as I can! Thanks for the great content and I'm donating right now to the WHO.

    Mavrik killed it!! Would love to see a video of the proper fitting for the Mavrik to see what shaft Matt ends up going with and the reason for it... keep the videos coming guys they're helping me get through the lockdown here in Glasgow, Scotland!!

  • @MrBrokentowels
    @MrBrokentowels 4 роки тому

    The opening shot was framed beautifully. Just need a light meter chaps. Helps gauging over exposure and makes it look pro like the rest of your shots.

  • @ronmarcelo7370
    @ronmarcelo7370 4 роки тому

    Awesome stuff guys! Would love to see this bracket done with a more human-like swing speed. My clubhead speed tops out at about 110mph and I’d love to see how these clubs perform in that range.

  • @ryedhel
    @ryedhel 4 роки тому

    Looking forward to seeing the Mavrik get dialed in. It definitely distinguished itself just a notch above the rest. Visually, watching on a course vs range was a nice improvement to the video's.

  • @aggieknight
    @aggieknight 4 роки тому

    Definitely agree with the request for a final comparison between the optimized Mavrick vs the Ping. This may have been asked or answered and I haven’t seen the response, but is there a breakdown of each club on how many strokes, after warmup, to produce the 10 fairway shots? I was trying to follow the shot counter to get this in order to look at another metric.

  • @chrisfreitag2603

    @TedInoue 4 роки тому +1

    I never buy new clubs but after testing the Mavrik when it first came out, I knew I had to have it. Played a few rounds with it before the "lockdown" and its performance is stunning. Long and straight!

    • @TedInoue
      @TedInoue 3 роки тому +1

      I recently sold it to a friend. Still love it but I started gaming Epic Flash Star (ultralight clubs) for all my long clubs. I’m getting about 20yds more from it. More spray with the lighter clubs but they suit my swing better. I’d still recommend Mavrik. My friend is hitting it straighter and longer than his old club, so we’re all happy.

    OMG!! Matt bombs the Mavrik In the 350's mostly and Ian says they can get more out of it with a different shaft!!! .. Scary for the foursome who will be in front of him this summer!!! FORE!!!!!!! Love your videos and this Driver challenge was a relief from what we are experiencing with the virus... Thanks Guys!!

  • @dougholtz
    @dougholtz 4 роки тому

    Following "Stay at Home" instructions, I've watched some old golf tournaments. One was the Shell match play between Sam Snead and Ben Hogan. These guys played persimmon woods and (I think) balata covered balls (with liquid centers?). They were driving 250-265 yards. The course was Houston CC, and their second shots on par 4's were 6 or 7 irons. What a difference 60 years makes. Do you have a persimmon driver Matt or Ian can hit with today's balls to compare to today's drivers???

  • @THEPlaidGamer
    @THEPlaidGamer 4 роки тому

    Question on lead tape(For Driver heads less than 200g that you may try to bump up):
    If you were to put lead tape (Say 4 - 10g) low and away from the face on the bottom would you notice the driver having an increased MOI/Spin/Launch due to more mass further back from the face? Vice versa - Could you put lead tape on the top crown of the driver & close to the face to move its center of mass to be higher & more forward to reduce spin/launch?

  • @colinschrank5576

    Not surprised by the results. I play the F9 driver and its really good for me. But recently demoed the new Sz & Sz Xtreme, not much difference. Then demoed Pxg Gen 2, Sim and Mavrik...Mavrik for me was basically 15 yds further on that particular day and straighter too. Everything just fit me well that day, gonna give it a go again soon.

  • @stephendibari5010
    @stephendibari5010 4 роки тому +2

    Knew it was going to be MAVRIK!! Great bracket guys !! Obviously this is HIS best driver /shaft setup. Without an actual fitting which I’ll be doing over the summer, Is The MAVRIK Head the best for me a 2.4 handicap with a 102 -104 mph driver club head speed with a smooth tempo, AOA about + 3-4 degrees

  • @morgancross5481
    @morgancross5481 4 роки тому

    I'd love to see you guys find a way to get some toe weight in that Callaway, maybe hot melt or something. I still think that toe weighted PING was so good for Matt's miss and i'd hate to see him give up that protection for more distance and lower spin. Look forward to the optimizing!

  • @SnoXRacer183
    @SnoXRacer183 4 роки тому

    Could just be the lighting on the different color shafts, but it did look like the Cobra shaft really loaded up more up at the top of the swing, and the Ventus in the Mavrik stayed more "flat" without as much loading. I've found a shaft that has more loading/whip feel seems to get better timing and feel in my head, while the shaft that stays "flatter" during the swing really adds distance to my drive. I have similar swing speeds and launch conditions as Matt does
