Well, for those that prefer the counter balanced feel, you don't have to add weight to the head. I built a set of Mizuno 223 with the LAGOLF L Series 120X and they came out to D0 at standard length with 52g grips. I wasn't going to get 6g+ into the hosel, so had to do lead tape. I don't mind the...
Iron shafts are a bit polarizing from what I've seen so far. The balance point is higher up so they are not a ton of fun to build with as they SW really light and adding weight to graphite shafts isn't my favorite.
Things are not going great for them at the moment with DJ and Bryson both not playing LA shafts as of late. But it's just impossible to keep up with Fujikura and the Ventus line at the moment.
You don't need to be precise with your paint fill. If you watch some of Anthony T. videos from Callaway, he will apply a generous amount of pain, spread it with a cue tip and then wipe paint off quickly with a flat/hard business card or towel and some acetone. May have to reapply some paint...
Yes it can be replaced. There are a few places where you can buy inserts. There are also a few videos online of Trottie from TaylorMade removing and installing new insert in putters. I've done it twice before.
You'll get a lot of opinions on which comes first, but there isn't a right answer. There are so many great options for golf balls now that you can fit someone into clubs and use the ball as the final move to get the gofer into the right windows. I also will use the ball to make changes during a...
Actually, your original point was EVERY fitter will try to fix a swing and no beginner will benefit from a fitting. Neither are true.
No one is lobbying for "all fitters" doing any one thing except for you.
I don't know because it's a made up scenario and I don't know who specifically the fitter is. And, guess what... you can't answer that question either.
I can tell you I have had golfers come in for fittings and end up leaving with zero fitted clubs, money back and a connection with a swing...
It isn't EITHER one way or another. It is both. I don't believe it is always equipment. I literally had a golfer come in last week wanting to do a full bag fitting. They are 6 months into golf and have been working with a great coach here in Nashville. We worked through irons and found a set...
It seems you're coming from the mindset that fitters are less qualified than a teaching professional. While there are plenty of great teaching professionals out there, I have had plenty of golfers come through fittings that were "fit" by a phenomenal teaching professional and the clubs were...
1. You can’t guarantee that EVERY fitter would do anything.
2. You’re making swing coach and fitter mutually exclusive.
A highly skilled fitter will know when a fitting will be productive and when it won’t. While I agree that if you’re completely new to the game it would probably be most...
Why would we spend money on anything we aren't sure would help us? Even if it is "cheaper" than a new driver, it may not be what we need. If that's the case, then when it comes fitting time, you have to buy another driver rendering the previous one useless and you have now spent more than...
