    I nudged ball position forward about 1" on a shot with the 5-wood the other day to get a little higher flight and let it ride the wind. Huge change. Better strike, better flight, straighter. So I kept doing it to see if it would work some more. And it did! Such a tiny change made such a big difference. Can't wait to watch it steadily creep forward until I start topping them and decide I need a new 5-wood.

    TXG content has been on fire for 2020. If possible can we see Matty's or Ian routine for ball position on a golf course. Cheers

      I totally agree that I need this video too ... However I didn't get: What I needed to do so that I could hit my fairway wood or IF I tried a Hybrid what to do properly. I agree that Matt sure can do what ever's asked of him as some other commented earlier. I don't think I fell asleep any one of the three times I watched so I wonder what I've missed.

      Ball placement in stance.

  • @snaphook31
    @snaphook31 4 роки тому

    I got fitted by the Titleist Tour Van about 5 years ago at my club. Saw the same dude fitting Dufner in the next month of Golf Digest. He was awesome and we geeked out for an hour because I ask questions like a 6 year old. I pulled the old hybrid out of my bag because it was so inconsistent. Fitting made a huge difference (-0.5" shaft, right kick point, etc.), obviously, but the best advice was, "Make the grass dance." The grass in front of the ball should be lightly scraped, but no divot. Having that visual was very helpful for me. That's the last thing I say before pulling the trigger on my hybrid and I've become a very consistent hybrid player. Thought I'd pass that along since that was helpful for me.
    @TXG - as a fellow lefty Canadian, now enjoying 12 months of golf a year in California, keep the content coming! Numbers junkies like me are loving it!

    • @ThatCigarGuy
      @ThatCigarGuy 4 роки тому

      Same here. I love seeing the numbers and how something so simple as striking the ball with the right part of the club is so dependent on where the ball is in your stance.

    Im a natural driver and low irons stricker but Im dredful with woods, Im alright with small head hybrids, a 16°/17° hybrid fills the gap nicely.

  • @JitzKing
    @JitzKing 4 роки тому

    Great video, this is exactly what I was struggling with my 3 wood off the tee! Had it set up as a driver and had the same inconsistent flight issues in addition to a heavy slice. Moved it back now and it’s much improved, now being a fade and my distance is increased. 👍

  • @nickcoleman9803

  • @Mackaygolf
    @Mackaygolf 4 роки тому +1

    So many of these little data nuggets and gems are buried in some of the club review videos from the past couple of years, but to have a concise explanation and demonstration of how setup influences the launch conditions is absolutely PRICELESS. You are inspiring and creating better golfers with this content. Absolute LOVE for you boys!

  • @rogmackay
    @rogmackay 4 роки тому

    Absolutely superb stuff! This will make a huge difference for me... I know its often setup that makes the difference, doing it's with slope and lie on the course makes it all the more difficult. This analysis will help so many people figure out why something is happening and make a change when needed. Well done guys.

  • @johnnyb2562
    @johnnyb2562 4 роки тому

  • @josephdubiel7129
    @josephdubiel7129 4 роки тому

    I like hybrids. I have a complete set of them instead of using irons. I agree with you guys. Play the ball slightly ahead in your stance and I sweep it disturbing the ground a small amount. Works well for me. I have had pro's at clubs tell people to hit down on the ball. Might work for some but I like my way better. Great review guys !!! Enjoyed seeing this. Joe

    Outstanding video. I don't know why I hadn't thought of this earlier, but I just started tracking the positioning for each club to get the optimal shots. I added the info into my cell phone so I can easily access and remind myself where to position myself upon address. Hopefully I won't have to adjust too much over time. LOL ... always a work in progress. Great insight!

    Great video as always gentlemen, and super helpful advice as hitting my hybrids consistently has been a bit of an adventure, as I’ve tended to sweep or slightly lifted up on my hybrids versus hitting slightly down as you suggested. Can’t wait to test it out on the range, thanks guys, I’m addicted to watching your videos now, ha!

  • @IrishMace99
    @IrishMace99 4 роки тому

    I got this same advice in a recent fitting. For my hybrids I used to play the ball in about the same spot as my mid irons. Moved it up a bit and my contact immediately got much better, especially on a good swing. No amount of ball positioning seemed to help with a fairway wood, though, so we ditched it and went with a 2H instead.
