I became concerned with the cut at the end of the season. Might try putting it to ++ and see what happens in the sim

I could draw this in - - at the beginning to middle of the year. Now I can’t hope to draw it. Golf is so hard 😂

I couldn’t hit a ball to the left side of the course today if I wanted to. Dead pulls and low hooks on repeat. It was the worst. lol

Swing harder. When I get like that it’s because I’m not committed.

I think the case today was that I was getting too quick from the top. But I know where you’re coming from too. Whenever I do that I bleed everything left

I’ll be interested in your results if you beat me to testing it. My right miss is mainly do to catching it off the toe because I’m standing too far from it. It’s happened a few times on the course but not enough for me to be super concerned.

Dude you’re not wrong! I was having an issue with it and realized I was not committing. It was on 3/4 swings for me and I was decelerating just before impact 🤦‍♂️
 
I have yet to mess with the hosel on this club but the weight placement is perfect for adjusting ball flight. Heavy weight in toe won’t draw (and I’m a snap hook guy) and weight in heel won’t fade. Nailed it. I need to study the new hybrid adapter

Right? I’m not just busting balls here. The hybrids (and Ti clubs) in this lineup just like to be hit hard. The results are massively different for me when I commit and go after it, vs trying to steer it.

Fully agree. When I go after it (same with Ti 5w) I get tight draws that just rocket off the face. Lazy swings lose it.

Lazy swings are left fading popups for me. Still go 80% of full distance, but definitely left.

Same here. When I over cook it right I think it’s because I’m trying not to fade it left. Just gotta trust the swing and it goes
 
Been working on alignment and setup with this club. Seems like a job for an iron but this is very square to the target and doesn't feel upright

I did mess with the hosel during some practice time at the PGATSS on a GC Quad. Was amazed on how much the club changes by adjusting the COG.

Hit this today in the simulator and it really made me think about my Grandaddy bag. This club is so versatile in stock settings that I don't know if I would need two or three of them in the bag. So easy to launch and also to control.

Stock swing today was 220 yards. Knock down on command was 200yds. Really going after it and accepting the left miss was 230. Really versatile and not hard to control with a great feel. The jump from the Paradym AiSmoke 5H to this in feel is really noticable. Feels more "iron-like" yet sounds explosive if that makes any sense at all.

Today changed things. I was thinking hard at a 18, 22, 25 setup. Now it seems to be more of a 19, 23 and then into irons with one of them not being needed. Thats how workable this club is. Fades and draws both obtainable (yes this is on a simulator but the intent and results were there)

I know I'll have hybrids in the bag at the Grandaddy. Looking at 3h and 5h. Maybe a Super if it can compete with a 3w. If the new hybrids are any improvement, which I know they will be, then they will easily be the best hybrids I've ever owned.

I'm gonna play every hybrid I can fit per gap and then blades haha
 
I hit some really good shots today with the Elyte X 4H and 5H. Distance was money but I was pulling shots right of the green. I think I may need to relax the lie angle a bit on them.
 
I’m going to try some different settings this week with the 4h. Specifically moving the weights around to see how that plays and go upright with that setup as well

The weights!!! Never had a club move ball flight so drastically
 
Swing changes have changw my ball flight. Had to adjust the adapter and decided to set everything back to neutral until I figure this out. Add height and spin and didn't lose too much distance. Will be sticking with this for a minute.

What did you have it set at before? Just curious and I’m sure you mentioned it but I can’t remember.
