Micah I’m a professional coach from another sport. The way you broke this down was simple and super informative . You got me questioning my own game re 3W. Thanks for a great video mate!
Micah, you and Grant have always been my favorite RUclips golfers but recently you have just been pulling ahead in my opinion. I love the confidence, consistency, and comedy you’ve been bringing. Forever wishing for the day we run into each other/playing a round together.
2 things: 1. Micah hitting driver is just breathtaking. He’s going to a milli subs with that skill alone. 2. No cuts. Barely breaking a sweat and dude is just absolutely hitting insaneeee numbers. Keep that 🔥 coming bro!
Great sence of humour cutting his coffee down to one or two cups a day as he drinks from a gallon mug. 😂😂😂 just how for do you want to hit the ball? You hit it further than Rory Mcllroy.
I truly understand your ability to get access to all these golfing equipments. I think you’re truly Blessed. You have the speed and acumen to play golf. A lot of golfers like to tinker around golfing equipment, etc. With this being said, As my Golf instructor said before. “It’s the Archer, not the Arrow”. 😇. Keep it simple, too much tinkering maybe detrimental. Have fun and play well!😊
@@jordan3305 but it doesnt even look like he's using the ground that much either, its crazy. His front foot doesnt even move much. Most guys that use the ground a lot their feet move a lot after impact. Kyle Birkshires lead foot lands 3 feet to the left of his starting point as an example
would really enjoy a video where you go through a range session and talk through everything. How many of each club youre hitting, what you are actively working on in each shot, if youre focusing on specific shot shapes, etc.
Love it Tig. Would've wanted to see the other numbers with the 3 wood to kinda understand what's happening like strike patterns heel/toe and up/down the face, face angle, apex, and angle of attack. If the 5-wood was 20 degrees maybe you could consider a 6-wood (7w length lofted down) and 4-wood (5w length lofted down) combo or some type of 3 hybrid and 4-wood combo.
Man you have such a smooth and effortless swing. Would love to see a video where you walk us through your swing (i.e. set-up, swing thoughts, foot pressure, feels, etc.)
Those fairway woods make the gaps perfect. But after watching a lot of your videos, I think you are going to pull out your 2 iron whether you are facing a challenging tee shot, or trying to reach par 5 in 2. That means you don’t really need the woods and that’s perfectly fine. You can hit longer than Rory, you should carry 5 wedges😊
Try change the shaft in 3w put same one as in 5w - you love it how stable it is, maybe get you more consistent. Yeah because on many shots your stock 5w-250 and 3w 300(with roll)
Micah, I'd love to see you do a challenge where you set a 20 yard wide fairway and try to keep all the shots with the driver inside and then a 10 yard wide fairway for irons. I feel like your shots have gotten way better since working on your backswing, but the dispersion is still pretty big. I'd love to see how you pick a line and just hit inside it. That's where Grant and George are so deadly. They don't miss their target lines
Hi Micah - I wish you would pick a group of mini tour events to play. I love watching you inside the ropes. please play more pro events. thanks,,, love your channel
Awesome and inspiring stuff Micah. Just looking at the stats shown on screen, is it possibly misreading your ball speed somewhat? Unless pretty much all your drives were off centre hits, it seems to be showing around 10mph slower than I'd expect.
Micah, you are a very good golfer with lots of skill, but what’s holding you back is your short game and your mentality with taking advantage of the strengths of your game.
He has all the skills. He needs to see sports psychologist. His mental part of his game is what ruins him. He over thinks everything. You can literally tell when he plays.
What is your attack angle with 3 wood? I would assume positive by 2. You are catching it low on the face. That’s why spin is up. Try going to the 4 wood or a 3 wood with a thinner depth of face to get better ball striking. Or hit down on your 3 wood a little more.
I have a 21 degree 7 wood I hit 235 and a 4 wood I hit like 260 consistently 265 . Switching from 3-5 to 4-7 has helped me a ton separate from my driver distance and 3 wood being almost the same
Swing looks really good! Would just like to see you rein in that attack angle with your driver some (though part of it may have to do with teeing the ball high in the video)... Still, 6-7 AoA is quite up and stands out a bit much from other clubs and can make hitting them less consistent. Would love to see you in the 0 to +3 range.
Given you've turned the 5 wood to 20° im surprised you didnt just get a 7 wood. Ive got one (also QI10) and get similar numbers (with hzrds black gen 4 x-stiff shaft, 41.75" playing length)
Hi Micah, could you compare the qi 10 standard driver to the sim2 max driver in one of your videos? Would be nice to see if the old one is still worth it. Thanks.
The shaft in the three wood is too light. They should try an 80 gram or even 90 gram Ventus Blue. Seems like the 5 wood works well though, if you adjust it back to standard loft it will go your 250 number.
It’s so interesting how every golfer is so different and unique. My 3 wood is my absolute safety net and can pure it and shape it however I’d like. If you put a two iron in my hands, the tracers are a complete shotgun blast 😂
So glad hes no longer committed to that sliced driver swing he was using. Aiming that far left and wiping at it was not taking advantage of his biggest asset
Fairway wood shafts have gotten ridiculously long just like driver shafts! I want to try the new brnr mini driver but I’m left handed so no demos in the stores!
Some of the launch numbers on your 3W were low. That 6x black. Shaft is killing you. Bring that down to a 6S for a little more whip and get that launch up. That will help you massively
@@AndyPlaysGolf my guess is when you're that fast you want stability from xxstif and heavy. Especially in a fairway finder. I know some tour players can game whippier shafts and long drive guys too but to me, Tig would benefit from more consistency not more distance. Pretty sure that's what most players do too, if anything is lighter and less flex, it's generally the driver not the 3 wood.
@@201francoisIt's a misconception that you need the stiffness because of speed. It's nothing to do with speed. It's thr load you put of a club. Yes that can come from a faster speed, but more times than not. Speed will usually cause a popper strike. He needs a shaft that will help him time his swing better. Hence the softer flex. He used a ladies shaft in his driver for a while and it caused him to swing better and time it better. He needs that for his 3w. The forgiveness will. Come with a higher launch. 4° is not good for a 3w. Even for a driver. You would be surprised how many players are in the wrong shaft because they say they "swing fast"
Micah, when are you going to do a swing training giveaway to a lucky subscriber. I’d love to get a speed setion and ping pong match at your “facility “ that would be the best thing ever
Probably spinning that 5 wood too much. Get that down under 5000. With 160 ball speed you should be getting 245ish with 4200 spin. Move that weight up a bit to know a few rpms off.
Not drywall, OSB. You always have solid anchors on the wall. Plus, a golf ball versus drywall is a mouse hole. Now, please throw that 2 iron in the lake. You hook it every other time. I guarantee that if I ask you to show me where you intend to hit that 2 iron and you tee up your driver, you could punch your driver exactly where you would want to play your 2 iron. Right? You get me?
@@201francois may be. But even when I got for fittings on new drivers and woods I’m always down on smash factor with other brands. Micah needs to stop being the speed show pony and focus on tempo.
Is it just me or does it look like the hitting spot should be moved to the right about a foot? Square on shots seem to be left of line but show up as right down the line on the screen
3 wood might not be the club for you either way, but I don't think yours is set up right for you. Shouldn't be losing that many balls to the right. Love these simulator vids though, very informative.
The Taylor made Qi10 driver isn’t worth it they are trying to compete with the paradym series. There is a reason they stopped the stealth. Paradym is so far advanced in technology and forgiveness.

It’s insane how effortless your 129mph club head speed seems. My guy just built different
Dude it honestly drives me nuts. He doesn’t even have a snap to his hip movement. It’s all just slow and smooth
@@PJo336 Hips dont do a lot as far as speed, Woman PGA pros actually have faster hip rotation then men do. ITs all in how you use the ground.
So true!!
*This is just recent let's just say in early 2024 Micah acquired some skills and implemented them in this game that gave him effortless speed.*

Micah needs to have a figure on how he generates so much power. Crazy to see how effortless it looks. Great video!

Loving your content Micah👍👍 What a great athlete…
The sponsor will be delighted with this video
You gotta get a pad or something under the turf so the balls don’t bounce as far
Great video.
The coffee cup scene was actually funny
Interested why you have the TPT in both 5 wood and driver but the Ventus in the 3 wood.
Cut down to one or two cups of coffee 😅 yeah cool
Then carrys on to show how big his coffee cup is ☕☕😂🤣😂🤣😂☕

He doesn’t need advice from a keyboard warrior
He doesn’t have a consistent shot shape either. His swing has a unique move with his head tilt that effects his path quite a bit.

Hit it farther and straighter… That’s what you want? Easy, get the PING 430 10K…. And their 3 wood.
Love the new video editing and format!!
Have you applied the new swing taught by JT a few weeks ago?
haha love the dig at the dod princess....
A series of force plate videos, driver, 2-iron , 7-9 iron would be awesome.
Love seeing you hit that draw with the driver, Tig!
I have a 21 degree 7 wood I hit 235 and a 4 wood I hit like 260 consistently 265 . Switching from 3-5 to 4-7 has helped me a ton separate from my driver distance and 3 wood being almost the same
I love the table tennis coffee table! 😂
Micah, join the 7 wood club, all the cool kids are doing it.
Actually 18 turned up is basically a 7. Welcome to the club
Swing looks really good! Would just like to see you rein in that attack angle with your driver some (though part of it may have to do with teeing the ball high in the video)... Still, 6-7 AoA is quite up and stands out a bit much from other clubs and can make hitting them less consistent. Would love to see you in the 0 to +3 range.
Micah you should try out the standard or max model qi 3/4 wood. Should be a lot more forgiving and consistent than the tour.
Appreciate the entertainment over the past years!
Given you've turned the 5 wood to 20° im surprised you didnt just get a 7 wood. Ive got one (also QI10) and get similar numbers (with hzrds black gen 4 x-stiff shaft, 41.75" playing length)
The swing looks so beautiful and easy.Good job.
Nice to see the consistent draw, I think the fade looked unpredictable for you.
Love seeing this type of content 🔥
One inch interlocking training mats installed under the turf and the setup will be perfect.
Hi Micah, could you compare the qi 10 standard driver to the sim2 max driver in one of your videos? Would be nice to see if the old one is still worth it. Thanks.
Whatever you're doing, your spine looks more stable now, more consistent
I'm a big fan of the 5 wood or 7 wood. Seems that is a good "safety" club off the tee.
The shaft in the three wood is too light. They should try an 80 gram or even 90 gram Ventus Blue. Seems like the 5 wood works well though, if you adjust it back to standard loft it will go your 250 number.
I like you!!!! Fun to watch what a mega swing looks like
Feel like Micah would like a 3 wood if it was cut down a quarter or half an inch
From this camera angle you're alignment seems slightly to the right. Maybe that's why the ball is flying slightly right?
Glad you cut down on coffee. Nice 32 oz cup
I just watched the myrtle Beach qualifier and survey says, you’re not a scratch golfer. Far from it.
Could u Post a workout routine. My back is shot , been going to pt to try and get it back but golf specific workouts would be huge for the program
Uhm any chance of getting a thicker landing mat infront of the impact screen?😅
6:36 only two cups a day, my man! No one said a cup couldn’t be a pot 😂
Damn how this lil fellow hit it so damn long lol
Why not use the tpt shaft in 3w? Have for driver and 5w - so why not 3w?
Would take any of his misses, impressive driving to be sure, the laidback attitude is cool as well

Put a tpt shaft in the 3 wood
Pop that 3 wood head on the 5 wood shaft and see how it feels.
4 wood is the answer

3 wood might not be the club for you either way, but I don't think yours is set up right for you. Shouldn't be losing that many balls to the right. Love these simulator vids though, very informative.

I don’t think scratch golfers shoot an 86. You aren’t scratch more like a 5 handicapper.
You hit your clubs just far enough to shoot 86
