G’morning! Great WITB video ! Simon thanks for not only sharing but also giving your “why” behind the clubs that made it into your bag. I appreciate your honesty that if you’re fitted properly your bag set up can last for several years. Keep the content coming and I throughly enjoy gaming the GX golf gloves!!
I’ve realised I’m still using the first set of Miura’s you did for me back in the 20th century. That and age mean it’s time for a revisit. See you soon I hope.
Kinda knew it already but it’s amazing how similar our sets are…you’re just the better ball striker who doesn’t need to justify a 2 and 4 iron :) great stuff as usual Simon.
Refreshing vid👍 especially not encouraging everyone to change to the latest thing, I’m really interested in club building so would love to see your full spec sheet for the build. Keep it up guys🎉
Another superb video, Simon. Thanks for all the detail - fascinating to hear how you describe the clubs to your needs. Also excellent presenting skills - Nick Doherty should look out, as the Sky producers could easily find a slot for you on Sky Golf!!
I’ve never tried the Obans so quite tempted to give them a try. Did you go soft stepped 115 Stiff to keep the weight around that 107g mark or do they play stiff to flex ? One another question, I’m assuming KBS Tours in regular are around the same weight but play even higher, toward the handle balance wise ?
Great video. Having followed the channel closely, the only real surprise was the 5W - believe we have seen the rest pop on screen at on time or the other 🧐. But really interesting to get the full WITB with explanations. Guess that's one more for the nerd score below 🤓🤭 BTW: How do you keep such a complete rusty finish on the wedges - is the weather in the UK really that much on brand 🌧☔🌧that they become like that, 😄 or do you have a special storage for them below the roof water drain pipe...
The 5w is a very occasional club and not one I regularly use (only very specific courses where a high flighted 220/230 yard shot is needed) so it is not standard in my bag. Uk conditions, particularly this year, make keeping wedges rusty very easy!!
Interesting and educational as always. But give time a chance Simon. I gather from your remark that you are 44 now. So you added a 5 wood. I turned 83 on June 17 and about two years ago added a 21 degree 7 wood and 24 degree 9 wood to replace my 5, 4 and 3 irons. Like the Beatles song, ask your driving iron will you still love me when I'm 64. Or will you still love it. By then you may be adding at least a 7 wood and using the driving iron as a putter.
Haha - I hear you John! I think the driving iron might be long gone by then and I’ll have a bag of headcovers!! Thanks for your continued viewing and comments
Interesting explanation of why you removed the line on your putter. I use a TM spyder X because of the line but also have a problem sometimes of dragging the ball left and as a result tend to hold the face open. It's made mw wonder if I should experiment with a putter without an alignment aid. Just out of interest, I know the loft on my putter is too much at around 5 deg; is it worth my while getting it adjusted to something more normal just to see what difference it makes - by that I mean without going through a fitting?
Oh no.Oban CT115.Got fitted into them 4 Weeks ago and they can be yours for a small Fee.Coming out this week and putting in DG S300 Mid 115.Love your Miura Irons.HRL.
I use Miura MB001 irons 5 to P with Aerotech 80 shafts which I feel is a mismatch. Please could you advise whether I should change the shafts or try lead weights? Thank you.
@@Precision_Golf to go even deeper into this haha could we get the length of his hand and width in cm? always struggle finding the right glove size and therefore grip size
Love the detail, nothing like a bit of tinkering. You have a fantastic facility, anyone who has not been, it’s well worth a visit.
Thank you so much Chris
Hi Simon. Thanks for adjusting my putter head angle for me! Great vibe in your shop. Feels like golfing heaven!
Thanks Ian. Good to meet you earlier
Great insight Simon, really enjoyable
Thank you Steven

They have lasted well! Be great to see you
Superb in every way. Thank you 👌
So nice of you, thanks 👍🏻

Separate at birth 😁
Loving finding this channel, subscribed!
That’s great, thank you!
Really enjoyed this one.
Thank you Kevin!

Thank you Nick. Really appreciate it and glad you enjoyed the video!
dig all of the little lead tape additions to each club
All about the lead tape to find tune timing! I’m old school!
Fantastic set
Thanks Martin, they work most of the time 😬👍🏻
Top video Simon
Thanks Colin!
lovely
Thank you ChiTherapie 👍🏻

The Soft-stepped Stiff just swing best for me but they certainly play more stable from a ball flight point of view.
Correct on the KBS tour

Ive just watched the whole thing and loved the detail - 2 questions :
1 am I a geek ?
2 do I need help ?
😂😂
Yes and yes!!

I would say 5 degrees is a lot and cold get the face a bit closed. 3 is more “standard “ and adjusting back down to that should help the left miss

Thanks for watching VHR. Hope the DG S300 Mid performs for you 👍🏻
@@Precision_Golf I’m confident they will.Ive tried a demo.Fingers crossed.
What do you play off Simon? Swing speeds etc. would give us context with golfer and equipment
I play a handicap index of +2.5, Driver swing speed of 110mph (just about!) and 6i 90mph
Are the Oban shafts the same as Shimada tour?…… you’ve a nice setup Simon
Hi Andy. Oban Steel is made by Shimada in Japan 👍🏻
Great bag! What ball do you prefer playing with?
I’m currently playing Pro V1 but will be doing a bit more testing with TP5 to increase long iron launch slightly soon
Hi guys, is three extra tapes 4 total tapes or 3 total tapes to be clear?
4 tapes total
I use Miura MB001 irons 5 to P with Aerotech 80 shafts which I feel is a mismatch. Please could you advise whether I should change the shafts or try lead weights? Thank you.
Hi Howard. Too many variables to speculate sadly, I would highly recommend going to see an experienced independent fitter.
Shaft lengths? Particularly in the woods?
Driver 45”, 3w 42.75”, 5w 42”. 6i 37.75”
No! not the grips. I love those, that’s most frustrating. Do we need to stock up?
Too late sadly!!
watching this now and may have missed it but what glove and size do you use?
Simon wears a GX Glove Men’s medium cadet.
@@Precision_Golf to go even deeper into this haha
could we get the length of his hand and width in cm? always struggle finding the right glove size and therefore grip size
What shaft length are you playing the 5 wood at?
42”
Lead tape on metal wood heads??
Absolutely. It’s the best way to tinker with the final feel
do you fit your own clubs?
I do but always get one of our fitters to check I’m not willing something into the bag!
Pure Golf porn for a data geek like me 😁 Thanks Simon!
Pleasure!!
Filthy Simon ❤
