About 90 and this was determined at a local Golfsmith launch monitor.

If you were hitting on a GC2, it can't measure club head speed without HMT (an extra sticky-uppy thing, and you have to put four little white dots on your club face). It just calculates based on ball speed and a fixed smash factor. If you weren't hitting one or the other club dead center every time, it would estimate a slower swing speed when what you really had was a lower smash factor.Well depends on the driver I suppose. When I was at the PGASS, when I was swinging the Cobra King LTD the club speed was 94.7 mph on average, and when I switched to the D200 my club speed was 92.8 mph on average. I was pretty shocked at the results. I figured with the D200, I would gain club speed, not lose it.
I'm pretty sure that I didn't hit either club dead center every time. It's just the nature of the beast as a higher handicap player. Did I hit the LTD better than the D200 with my ten swings of each? Who knows. it still puts me in the 92-95 mph range.If you were hitting on a GC2, it can't measure club head speed without HMT (an extra sticky-uppy thing, and you have to put four little white dots on your club face).

Whichever showed you the better distance was the one you hit better. :act-up:I'm pretty sure that I didn't hit either club dead center every time.

Dude it is driver head speed not slap shot MPH... HahaI was just in a trackman and just like last year I'm around 108 give or take 3mph.
True, but the topic convo is on clubhead speed and how you were measured.Ball speed, spin and launch angle are the important numbers anyways. Club head gets you smash factor but impact tape can do the same thing.
