    I am a total equipment junkie and have been to fittings and watches fittings of buddies at different fitters and watched many hundreds of fitting videos. Alex is THE BEST FITTER I HAVE SEEN. AMAZING KNOWLEDGE AND DEMEANOR. Tip of the hat to you Alex, you are top drawer.

    I can vouch for his selling technique. I went to him for a fitting and was swing like shit definitely not to my handicap level. He said "its up to you but how about you leave it today and come back another day when we can fit you in to a club that shows your true potentional." I was absolutely amazed he didn't even charge me for his time as he was more bothered about being a decent guy/ a good representation of his clubs and fitting style. No pushy style just lets his product do the talking. He is a scholar amoung us mere mortals.

    this video just proves what I have long suspected about ALL the club fittings I have done with the top fitters in my city - they are all just bullshit. hit a few balls with your 7 iron, swing the Mizuno shaft optimiser, and find the head you like. no analysis of spin, shot result, adjustment of lie, loft etc. Wishing you every success Alex & ORKA - if I was in the UK I'd be in for a fitting pronto.

    Well I was looking at getting a set of older p770’s, but since I’ve never been fit and not knowing what specs I’d need, seems a bit mental to not go for a fitting for the RS1X’s and come out with a brand new set that I know is optimal for me. Also love the fact that these aren’t just some loft jacked power bats! Close to a 2 hour drive for me but seems like it’ll be worth it

I enjoy every video as a "tinkerer" I think you deserve way more views for content and entertainment value. Golf is way to an expensive of a hobby this video proves that. Even if that fitting was 6-700 it would have help more than 95% of fitters out there.

Go down to 6 iron and then a 5 hybrid. Ideally want 4 degree loft gaps. My 5 hybrid is 24 degrees.

    Wow! Outstanding value and terrific fitting. Wondering what your thoughts are on loft vs club length. I could play their 5 though PW and those lofts would match up with my 6 through gap wedge but the club lengths would be 1/2 longer for the clubs with equal loft (my 6 iron at 29 would be roughly the same as their 5 iron at 28). For a mid handicap golfer, is it easier to hit a stronger lofted club at shorter length or less lofted club at longer length? For example, is it generally easier to hit a 29 degree 6 iron or a 28 degree 5 iron?

    • @aleccomben2126
      @aleccomben2126 Месяц назад

      Don’t ever be fooled or conned by loft. For me the most important elements are spin, shaft, loft then length. Hope this helps. Stay well 😊👊🏻

    Agreed very impressive fitting. It would be interesting to know what the swingweight was with the 1/2” longer shaft, I’m guessing close to your Muira 7 iron promoting a positive swing path and flattening the lie angle 1 degree improves FTP thus stopping the left miss. Why would you go and spend £1000 off the shelf when this quality and service is available?

    • @aleccomben2126
      @aleccomben2126 Месяц назад

      1/2 inch would have added 1 swing weight, which would have been D3/D3.5 a total of 3 swing weights lighter than his Miura still. Which would be approx 9gm difference still.

      Because the sandy office was our accounts and department and warehouse. Sadly not the fitting HQ where I’m personally based. Sorry you couldn’t get through to me. Apologies.

    Anyone get these in the USA? Looks like they have Express 2-11 day shipping. I could use some new irons, and need the loft, as I'm a slower swinger. Either these, or buy a new set of used irons from 15-20 years ago...

      Fire point. But if you’re buying golf clubs based on “re-sale” value then having properly custom built clubs made for you, isn’t the route to go. Surely playing golf to your best with the best should be the driving factor 👍🏻

    Why should 7 irons be that loft ??? My t150s are 32 Deg 7 iron ...is he staying that's wrong 🤷

    • @SASGolf
      @SASGolf  Месяц назад +3

      All about loft, head design ( cg location )and shaft mate. The way Orka heads are designed and fitted is that you can have a more traditionally lofted 7 iron and get great carry and distance. All about the way the heads presented at impact. By no means your t150 lofted at 32 degrees isn’t optimal, just the way Titleist and many manufacturers build their heads to be good for the public. It was nice for me to see a different outlook on clubfitting and building however when working with Alex! Thanks for watching Pete!

      @Slayer3111 Месяц назад

      Not wrong at all. Some companies set the loft more aggresive for more distance, easier to hit a 7iron at lower loft (shorter shaft, easier to hit) to go further vs using a similar lofted 5 iron in a longer harder to hit shaft.

      My old Tommy Armour 855’s 7 iron is 36deg. In contrast I have a Cobra Forged Tec X which is 27deg. For a regular senior this produced a pretty useless Exocet ball flight.😏

      Everyone's game and swing is different. I'm in the same boat where I want more spin, so I bought blades where the 7 iron is 35°. My ball flight is significantly better than "game improvement" irons I first used that had 30° loft in the 7

    Statistically, there isn’t sufficient information to draw a conclusion here. Fron an analytics point of view, applying a Normal Distribution, the sample size per club has to be greater than 30, otherwise you will make inaccurate assessments.
