At the end when Ian started saying “Well boys” I was expecting him to finish with “this was a waste of time”
Someone else commented it and I agree too. Would the same results have been achieved by decreasing the loft on the gamer? The backspin and high launch seemed to be a function of excess loft, not the putter itself. The putter they fitted you with happened to be a very similar to your non Odyssey one. I'm not hating here, I'm just all for maximizing existing equipment.
Ian that was a show with your putter & then they tweaked another putter. I thought I was a descent
putter, but 16 in a row. Pass my wallet to you man. Nice demonstration on how it's done. Happy
holidays guys!
The Ping putter fitting TXG posted a few days ago had a process. A true process. This seemed far more random. I would have been disappointed if I paid for this "experience".
Totally agree
Well, Johnny Wunder ain’t no fitter
Yeah it was a disjointed / not well produced session
Ian was putting well right off the rip. Tweaks were smaller in nature because he started with a good fit. It was more dialing in versus doing more of an overall. Plus, visual preferences stated moved the process in a certain direction too instead of giving him putters that look like a rocket ship.
Nice follow up to the Quintic putter fitting videos a few months back. Would increase my confidence in purchasing a putter if this was part of the fitting - regardless of OEM.
Maybe I missed it, but there was no discussion of how head shape and different sight aids effect aiming bias. This fitting seemed to be "Here, which of these off-the-rack putters do you hit best, according to the machine." Contrast this to an Edel Golf putter fitting which is significantly more comprehensive and which takes things like aim bias into account. The player also walks away with a truly customized putter fit to them (note that I have no affiliation whatsoever with Edel). In reality, Odyssey are only going to do that for their Tour players. Of course, this process is better than nothing, but I would question the extent to which it "raises the bar" on fitting.
I think this is one of those scenarios where Ian is a subject that knows a TON about the fitting process and already has a pretty strong bias towards what he likes and doesn't like and then when he's standing there making putts from range time after time after time, there just isn't anything to address regarding aim or sight line in this particular circumstance. Getting better ball roll metrics became the priority because he wasn't struggling with hitting his line. I don't think watching one person's fitting is a good look into what to expect out of your own fitting. If he had been struggling to start it at and get the ball into the cup they almost certainly would have made that a priority in the process
This would be true if Ian were a “normal” golfer, but he’s literally a professional. No he doesn’t play on tour, but golf is his job, and most of it involves golf fitting. I don’t think you should draw conclusions about the fitting process at Odyssey based on this video involving a golf professional.
@@xTRUExiNsANiTYx I respectfully disagree. Everyone, no matter how good they are, has aiming biases. Head shapes and sight aids (line in the cavity, line or dot on the topline etc.) all have a strong influence on how a player aims the putter. Finding the right combination of these too things is very important. My point is that a proper fitting should involve a discussion of these things, regardless of how good a player is. Ian is good enough to compensate for various factors and make most things work, but that doesn't mean the off-the-shelf putter they recommend is optimal for him.
@@vedrfolnirvedrfolnir6840 fitting was shit…first question asked was shit…”where are your misses” …true fitting would see his aim of the putter before he struck a ball…a true fitting doesn’t ask questions …humans lie…a true fitting is digging in deep to see what the customer is actually doing with his putter
@@TrotGolfer Yeah I 100% agree.
This lad can roll the rock
This is probably a niche request but would you guys ever do a video testing round putter grips vs normal grips with a flat top? It seems like Edel preaches about the benefits of a round grip (and offer both varieties). I’ve been messing around with it a bit and like the round grips but haven’t taken it to the course yet.
I tried the edel grip, it didn’t go well 😂
I tried a regular round grip on my putter and it was terrible
So bend the Scotty to one degree...wow club fitting is tough
but then the fitter doesn't make his sales commission /s
Mishits won’t be as good
I doubt Ian goes away from Scotty. He loves that thing.
Great video.
Get that man a Toulon!!
Love my Toulon Garage putter
Ian, would love to see you guys try this odyssey with a bgt shaft, la golf, fuji, etc.
why not try different lofts on the gamer? at the end of the day, go with what works best, but sometimes with a putter fitting that close, on the course it could be a different story because of feel off putter face/weight and other variables. Test it outside and see if results work, otherwise go back to gamer and maybe make some tweaks on that.
I just got fit there last week!
love this!
This is why no company will ever be able to make putter fittings work. Their is no process. Ian is launching his ball 3 degrees to high with backspin on a 2 degree putter if his putter were to be bent to say 0° his putter would be 4° open and impossible to aim. Great job odyssey #1 putter on tour and absolutely no process to fix the main issue which is launch. Ian do me a favor come to California work with me on my Quinitic and let me fit you for a fine tuned putter which will be milled to exact weight and loft you need which is something no one else in our industry can do.
well done gents
My putter numbers are almost identical to Ian’s. They did not say how the double bend triple wide worked - no numbers unless I missed it. I am looking at a putter like that and was curious.
Ian fraser X ODYSSEY...
I AM VERY AROUSED
My money is on a Scotty Cameron putter fit at Titleist next year at the PGA show.
Is there an ideal swingweight for these Stroke Lab shafted putters? Seems like 35" run about 8 points heavier than 34" of the same exact putter. Should weight be added to the heads (or butt weight decreased) of shorter Stroke Lab putters to make up for it? Thanks!
2022 Tri hot 5k double wide vs 2022 anser 2d
Who wins?
So he needed to forward press his gamer another quarter inch. Cool.
Anyone else understand that we need to see the loft on the face for consistency.
I would love to see a match between Johnny wonder and trottie
Trottie’s tough and he’s swinging it really well. I’d have my hands full.
@@johnnywundergolf a sit down conversation about golf clubs would be quite interesting with amount of knowledge you guys have
I'm sure Ian changed putters when this video got done filming. Changes clubs more than anyone and then wonders why he isn't playing consistantly.
Go away
I love this channel and the whole TXG team seem like great guys, but I think there's some truth to this comment. Maybe it's a function of having access to an endless stream of new equipment, but I wonder about the message it sends. "Come and get fit, but your results may only be good for 3-4 months, then you'll probably have to get fit again because something might have changed. Even more so if you're an average player."
@@vedrfolnirvedrfolnir6840you ever consider that it might be part of their job to constantly be testing and trying new things to recommend to their clients? Lol are they supposed to just believe what the manufacturer tells them and call it a day?
@@RichardPalmbergDDS Of course. But if you re-read the discussion, the constant switching of products in their own bags somewhat undermines the message about the importance of fitting, or at least how long any fitting results are valid for.
Give yourself the best platform to start from then use those clubs for thousands of rounds.
When.its all free I'd be testing using everything what difference does it make he doesn't make money as a golfer he's a YT so I'd have a go at every club I could
Reckon Ian should have gone to see Chris Dennis first. Could have done a fitting and had a lesson at the same time rather than looking at just equipment.
idk why but this whole thing rubbed me the wrong way. Feels more like a lesson in putter fitting sales than putter fitting process. "Here, you love your gamer and haven't missed.... try this one. Oh the numbers are way better!"
Jesus do you miss get on tour
What happens when you get on greens that normal folks play...haha these labs a not real scenarios for real golfers
Great video.
