    I’m wondering @GolfSpy_APH if we should start a new L.A.B. Thread or keep this one rolling. 
     
    My broomstick arrived today and it’s so fun. Practicing is fun with this putter. 
    For Christmas, Santa is bringing our daughter a perfect putting mat so expect some work to be posted. 
     
    Here's some media for your enjoyment.

    Looks like I'm grabbing me some Kool-Aid.
    Well, I'm testing it out before actually buying a fully customized version.

    Worth saying - the 20% also applies to custom builds on the Lab Outlet store - so you can get your specs in a brand new blemish putter.

    I have been a Link user for ~3 months and decided to try out a Mezz.1 as my Link has been super streaky - great, but also terrible at times. I'll be interested to see how the Mezz compares.

    This is exactly why I went through with their fitting a few weeks ago. I wanted to grab something "less expensive" to give this whole LAB thing a try before committing to a fully customized version next holiday season. Now to go dig through the outlet for an option.

    Fellas,  LAB outlet is doing 20% off on their outlet site.   I came within a single thumb click if buying a mezz max today.   😆 
    Then I realized that until I correct my current aim issue the only thing that would change is that I'll be brushing the right side of the hole with a different putter head.  😆 
    The outlet site has slight blemish putters/shafts.   There's some custom options to it if you want too.   The prices are pretty superb on a normal day.  %20 makes it a steal.

    Thanks fellas.   I had plans to play out in Ojai, but my wife and daughter got sick.  They are well but it forced a change in plans to a dawn patrol 9 at the local instead.  First out with random pairing (as it turns out another loon that loves early rounds).  Good company for birthday golf.

    I promise I'm happier than I appear in the photo.  I'm often so focused on framing the picture I forget to smile.

    As @Jnoble89 mentioned in a previous answer, the deWiz Transition measurement is taken 8 inches into the downswing, which means it's entirely possible for the downswing plane to start above the backswing plane (hence the + deWiz Transition measurement) and then through the rest of the downswing the hand plane drops below the backswing plane creating the in-to-out path you see from the launch monitor (I would suggest looking at the trace lines of the deWiz avatar to see this visually).
    In general, particularly with higher caliber of players, we do tend to see a lot of golfers that have a slightly positive deWiz Transition number that result in an in-to-out path because of their ability to shallow out through downswing. Viktor Hovland would be a great example of someone that would have a + deWiz Transition, negative Steepening/Shallowing measurement, and in-to-out path.
    You can think of the Transition measurement as your "baseline". If you're producing a perfectly straight ball flight (0 path) with a +1.5 inch Transition, then you can treat 1.5 has your own "Zero".

    That actually makes sense. I am going to play with an exaggerated shallow/path at very top and see!  The data nerd in me wants to understand all this in granular detail!

    One thing to keep in mind is that deWiz measures your transition about 8" into the downswing, so while you may be slightly over the plane initially, you could be making a move later in your downswing that gives you that into out path. 
    The "standard" deviation for transition is +/- 1 for a straight ball flight based on what the deWiz app states, as well, so I wouldn't say that it is a big surprise you can still get that in to out path. If you were significantly over the top, then I would probably be more surprised with that result.

    Currently there is no metric that correlates to AoA as it doesn’t factor clubhead in relation to hand path. Would be a cool feature, but not sure it’s possible with a wrist only device. I imagine you’d need additional equipment. What would be cool is for it to have some integration eventually with MLM2 Pro, Mevo+, etc. where you can see that swing data paired with the data from deWiz. Maybe in the future!

    As @ejgaudettementioned, it doesn't do this, but I can easily see how this product could expand into a range of clip on accelerometers that could show every aspect of your swing.  Off the top of my head, you could pretty much get all the data you'd ever want out of 3-5  sensors plus the watch -- head/hat clip, lead & trail hip, lead and trail shoulders, glove clip, and a light one that sticks to the back of the club or the hosel.   
    The biggest trick would be making yourself stand still enough before swinging to register the data.  (I have virtually no waggle, but I don't really have a big enough pause between setting the club down to swing for it to register ready without me consciously making myself hold still.  Then I pretty much go as soon as I hear the ready chirp.  I may have to start imagining the chirp as my trigger soon.. 😆 
    The thing that's most interesting to me on the list of things you can do with the device is potentially turn up the sensitivity so that it can read a putting stroke.  That would be huge.  I am very, very, curious about potentially being able to do that.
