Wondering if I should try to increase my speed with some sticks. I see it is going quite well for @MaxEntropy

I had every intention of continuing through the winter, but the weather really did not cooperate. Now that I can actually see my deck, I'm going to get back into ASAP since league starts in a few weeks. Even though SuperSpeed told me I was far enough along I could start back up at Level 3, I plan to take 2-3 weeks back at Level 1 until I'm back in some form of swinging shape.

Cool. Do you feel this messed with your swing mechanics at all? I don’t want to ingrained bad habits.

I think so. As my body learned what it needed to do to go faster, I have no doubt there are subtle differences that were becoming habit. It didn't hurt my game at all. It's not like my swing is super consistent anyway, otherwise I wouldn't be stuck around the mid-teens HC.

Had a practice session at PGASS today and then browsed around... I think I need to go more I’m depth with the Callaway Epic Max LS.  It felt and sounded really darn good. And it was nowhere near set up well for me.

I also hit the Sim2 and thought it reminded me of my old M5, but I think I liked the colors of the M series better.

Also looked at other bag options as the Woode’s lack of zippered valuables pocket is still kind of strange to me.

I have an unopened box of ZX5s, ZX7 and an appointment for Radspeed One Length fitting next month.  Yet I put a set of the KING Tour Copper irons in the cart on my Cobra account.   Oh and of course a RAD Stand bag is there as well. 
 

 

I  need to amend this post.  The Copper King Tours have their place on the list to the PXG Gen3 XP. 
 

The only question is do I, i mean can I wait the most likely 4  more weeks or so that think it will take to get my swing strength —such as it was—back and go for a proper fitting.  Or do i go internet golfer and say, I can self fit and just order.

You can compromise and do over the phone fitting with pxg fitters.

Serious question:

How often do you get fit to a different bend profiles? If we are to believe that things like the mizuno shaft optimizer are good, couldn’t you know your best 3 shafts and pick from those available from the OEM and be 90% there?

Do your static elements change between club styles? Thinking length/lie angle here.

In all the fittings I’ve had I ended up -1/2 and 2 flat on irons. And shafts tend to be softer in the handle and tip stiff.

Either way we know you’re ordering soon. But it also could be interesting to see just how different your results are now while you’re working your way back up to 100%, but I don’t think I would order based on that info.

Things like head weight, blade length, and center of gravity all influence how a shaft can bend/feel during a swing

I get that part of it 100%. What I’m curious about is more does he ever get fit into two significantly different profiles.

I’d like to know that for some one who has tried that much of the parameters change a lot or if it’s generally similar profiles he’s getting fit into. Especially at non-tour speeds.

My response would be Gen4.   IMO, they are significantly better than the earlier models. 

Well since there is no info out on them, but I’m always interested to hear what you think, if you’ve tested them yet. 
I think the launch date is next week.

I have tried the model in the players distance category.   All prior generations were hook machines (at least for me) and that could probably be fixed with a fitting but the new models have a new weight design (you can see it on their page) that eliminates that hook bias.  I think they have a better feel as well.   phillip and I were talking about them and he seems to agree that they are much better and people seem to be getting better performance.

Serious question:

How often do you get fit to a different bend profiles? If we are to believe that things like the mizuno shaft optimizer are good, couldn’t you know your best 3 shafts and pick from those available from the OEM and be 90% there?

Do your static elements change between club styles? Thinking length/lie angle here.

In all the fittings I’ve had I ended up -1/2 and 2 flat on irons. And shafts tend to be softer in the handle and tip stiff.

Either way we know you’re ordering soon. But it also could be interesting to see just how different your results are now while you’re working your way back up to 100%, but I don’t think I would order based on that info.

Tough to answer accurately.  I havent been fit with the Mizuno analyzer in about 3 years.  
 

My last two OEM fittings resulted in polar opposite results. One put me in graphite Senior shafts and the other in steel regular.

The shafts I’ve had my best results with are Modus 105 in Regular and Recoil 760 in F3. 
 

My KBS fitting came out with TGI 70 in stiff.  
 

I’m very intrigued by the MMT 70 which is offered in the Gen3.  I hear very good things about those shafts. 

Length i seem to be pretty dialed in at 37.75 (1/4) long in most OEM and 1 degree up  although again, I’ve had fitters show anywhere from 1” long to even 1/4 inch short.

If nothing else that shows one of two things  

1) The difference in quality of fitters

2) As a 16 to 18 HC, my swing varies with the wind 😬

Well. I am one who doesn’t mind and needs a bit or right to left help. 
 

i have seem the new weight design.  They look nice. But i actually like the looks of the Gen3.  
 

I’ll definitely be reading the MGS piece upon launch

What equipment am i thinking about? Thinking about my Odyssey #7 arm lock. I already own it, but sent the head off to be modified. Will be getting the insert switched out to a custom aluminum insert. Can't wait until that thing comes back, my putting has been bad.

You can compromise and do over the phone fitting with pxg fitters. 

Actually if I don’t go in person, I’ll absolutely do the phone fitting.  With them being able to tailor the head weights to offset club length and mid size grips to keep the desired SW, you’d be foolish not to.
