Golfspy_CG2 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Anyway, I don't want to sidetrack the thread, to be about me...there will most likely be one for that in time. But just got done watching two more, the Wedge fitting for the High Handicapper, and it was packed full of great information. Learned a lot more about bounce than I had known, and I thought I had understood it pretty well. Ian just keeps dropping knowledge that is fascinating. Then saw one from a month or two back Mike the 5 handicap that is one of their fitters, and saw him try the JPX Forged, AP2 and Srixon 565, two of the three that I have tried and owned,. That was a good one as well. Ian took him back out of the extra length he was playing, just because he wanted more distance.

Let me know the dates, I'm only an hour away! The fitting will be on a Monday. Current plans would be to come up sometime Saturday afternoon, and do some site seeing or golf on Sunday. So by all means would love to tee it up with anybody in the area. Once we get the actual date confirmed and I book my flights, I'll let you know and it'd be great to get a warmup round in before the fitting! edit: just saw your PM and replied.

Golfspy_CG2 Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 So the fitting is confirmed and scheduled for early June. Will probably start a thread as time gets closer.

cnosil Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 The high handicap iron fitting video is great. Liked the tidbits of information about lower/stronger lofted clubs and how a non pro player should look at them. Yes more distance and maybe less spin but higher launch and steeper descent. And how you have to keep the entire set in mind to appropriately fill the gaps after fitting for new clubs. The final segment showing how the lie adjustments helped the current set was also a nice comparison. I am amazed at how fast the time goes by while watching these videos. Very well done. Can't believe I am actually watching a YouTube channel on a regular basis.

The entire production is just such high quality, better than any other YouTube golf content out there period. I re watched Sam's driver fitting last night just to see again what impressive changes they made for him. Such an incredible change in ball flight and distance.

Sent from my iPhone using MyGolfSpy Ian's comment about "lighter but stiffer" made sense to me, I am sure it has to do with how you load the shaft, tempo, etc. Remember that with these videos there might be more than is happening on screen (maybe multiple shafts tried, more discussion on the players swing than just the numbers). That being said, I am still amazed the crazy differences these guys can give anybody. I get more and more terrified they are only an hour drive away! And as an aside, I can not stand the S300 DG shaft. I can't imagine they put many players in it, low spin, low launch, very few recreational golfers are going to fit into that profile. I get sad whenever I look at a used iron I might want to purchase and see they have those shafts.

I don't mind my s300 but I hit my shots very high with way too much spin normally it did make me wondering if that was the right shaft or now much of a difference I could get from a new shaft selection.
