If you are what you eat then your golf game can also reflect what your equipment is setup like.
I'll discuss lie angles- swing weights- grips- shafts- bounce and clubheads all aimed at helping you get the proper tools for the task in your bag.
Technology is extensive in many golf instruction facilities. So, it is important for the golfer to understand how and what the numbers tell you- particularly so you don't get blinded by the figures when the instructor or club fitter is telling you what the numbers mean.
Persimmon woods are now a thing of the past. They do however help produce feedback and a better swing by their design alone. We are told new technology is far superior- but is it really? Here's why everyone should still own one to help their full swing.
Here is a video about the way golf clubs are setup. The length factor is something no-one talks about or even considers. But it is hurting a lot of people's games.
Club fitting can be a helpful path to improvement. BUT... We need the clubs to not suit our swing we test with- we want our clubs to suit something else....the future. Watch this to learn why you should take some control of your fitting.
Flat versus upright. I m not talking about the swing itself but the equipment. Remember the shape of the swing is not based on address or the top- its how things begin to work on the downswing and then impact
The golf swing requires a lot of torque in the feet and legs to swing on a proper path and more sequenced motion. If you can wear spikes- at least while practicing- your game will be better for it.
Lighter doesn't necessarily mean better. You may be able to swing something that is lighter at greater speed- but where in the swing does that speed occur. Remember mass and weight are also a form of distance when the clubhead is delivered properly.
Where the true speed in the golf swing occurs has and always will be debated by golfers & instructors. It obviously make sense that we want the most speed to occur at ball strike.
As many of my followers know, I am an advocate for golf club lie angles that aren't too upright.
If the swing is a rounded motion then upright is the anti requirement to help that happen.
I do however have a slightly different theory for the wedges. Watch this video to find out why.
