bardle Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 1 hour ago, MaxEntropy said: For some reason, I first read this as a question for the haters.... @bardle because of the size of this thread, you may have posted and I missed it, how is your gapping looking with the one lengths? Perhaps post a screen shot of your Arccos playing distanced? I have not posted it, its taking a minute for the data to level out. Here is my smart range and longest shot with each club. Longest is a bit better of a representation of the gapping for the longer clubs that I am seeing on the course as Arccos doesnt get that my chunks and punch outs are not my true distances. The Smart range is the correct representation for my scoring clubs because there are some long thin shots in the longest category for those (9 iron, gap wedge...) I'm pretty happy for the most part with the gapping. Everything is doing what its supposed to when struck well.

Nunfa0 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 6 hours ago, GolfSpy Stroker said: I'll start.... and throughout the 43 pages (so far) this may have been asked/answered, but since you all have these new sets of clubs have you done a thorough gapping test with them to determine your easy/regular/hard swing distances? If so can you go into a bit of detail into how you've done it? If not can you explain why not? (i.e. I already know my 7i goes 150...) Because of my time with Shot Scope and a range finder I knew how far I hit each of my old clubs. The new clubs are proving to be just as long in the winter as the Mizunos were in summer so my club selection has been easy so far. The only real gap is between wedge and the 52* and after trial and error a choke down smooth wedge fills that nicely. Because these clubs are so easy to hit, a three quarter shot proves to be no bother if the occasion arises.

It was something I learned at the Tour Striker Academy. I use it when there's a bit too much grass to go through, but not enough to warrant a chip. My go-to shot in this situation is to hover my wedge at the equator and blade it, which punches it thru a good 6-10" distance of rough with a little topspin.

When you loft up or down, do you switch the weights? Does weight switching by itself change the launch as I'm finding in standard positions the launch of a 10.5 is very low. What's the fairway f9 launch? high low or mid- does it sound the same as the Driver? 1. Haven't touched the loft 2. See number 1 3. For me shifting the weight forward does lower the launch but it also increases the run so it evens out. 4. I have mine set to 14.5 and it launches high and strong.

It looks like this is the right club but Arccos doesn't like this. My course has a par 5 that you can't really hit it over 220 and I am penalized every time I play that hole. Look at one of your rounds on the dashboard and the more green you see off the tee the better. Take a look and see which holes are penalizing you. This is my main gripe with Arccos as well. Driving statistics should be changed to tee shots or something. Maybe it's just a "me" problem but I think driving = driver shots 1 hour ago, bardle said: I have not posted it, its taking a minute for the data to level out. Here is my smart range and longest shot with each club. Longest is a bit better of a representation of the gapping for the longer clubs that I am seeing on the course as Arccos doesnt get that my chunks and punch outs are not my true distances. The Smart range is the correct representation for my scoring clubs because there are some long thin shots in the longest category for those (9 iron, gap wedge...) I'm pretty happy for the most part with the gapping. Everything is doing what its supposed to when struck well. Those are nice smart distances, but the high end of each club looks scary. Have you run into any issues nuking the ball over greens, or does it play to the smart distance more often than not? 4 minutes ago, Nunfa0 said: It seems that Arccos rates your handicap a lot lower than it really is but that's ok. Im currently on 9.8 but Arccos has me at half of that. I suppose it makes me feel better about my game. I think it will average out as you get more rounds in it. My GHIN is trending to a 10.7 and my Arccos is 11.3 trending down as well. bardle and Nunfa0 2 Quote Driver: GT3 Ventus TR Black 5 S 3w/5w: TSi2 Tensei AV Raw Blue S 4h: CLK 22* Hybrid Tensei CK Pro Blue 80HY S Irons 5-PW: 223 Steelfiber PR 95 S Wedges: 50, 54, 58 Steelfiber PR 105 Putter: DF3 x Accra Ball: Tour B X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you run into any issues nuking the ball over greens, or does it play to the smart distance more often than not? Yeah I mean as my swing is improving this season I'm seeing more and more distance out of the long irons. That 230 yard 4 iron wasn't a fluke. And I have several 200 yard 5 irons now. The clubs are consistent I think. I'm the one that's throwing in the curve balls. I think it's good though. With my old clubs, possibly due to a lack of forgiveness I couldn't just let loose, especially not with a 4 iron or I'd be in another state trying to find my ball. For the first time in my short golfing career I feel like I can really swing away with these and not suffer too much if I get too steep or roll my wrists a little too much. But yes. In the last 2 or 3 rounds I'm flying greens everywhere on accident. I posted some shots last week of them that were a little ludicrous...

But you already knew that didn't you stalker! 1 hour ago, russtopherb said: Have the new clubs required any setup/stance changes to adjust, especially with the One Lengths? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Well yeah. The one lengths all sit just a touch ahead of middle in my stance now. Nothing else has really changed though for me. 1 hour ago, Reesedw said: Who has changed their game by using the "caddie" in arccos? It may just be me but I'm still sort of waiting for the data to get closer to being correct. The shot selection off the tee mostly looks correct but the approach choices are...questionable at best up to this point. I do love the feature I just think it requires more data to be helpful at this point.

edingc Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Any problems with Arccos not detecting shots? I follow the Facebook group and there are a ton of complaints about that.

edingc Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 Another one: Is Cobra an underrated brand? Obviously, we all know about the drivers.

I'm not a CCC tester but here are my thoughts on Arccos: Mine might miss one full swing shot in a round. Tap ins are harder to get it to register. It really drains my Pixel 3 battery. Link got delayed because they wanted to add the ability to mark pin locations to it via a button. It's supposed to come out sometime in August or September I believe.
