Love having the What and Why in the entire bag! And I couldn't figure out why I love the Ian Mac combo but finally realized it's feels and data but both know how important each other is
I love these kinds of videos. Ian and the TXG gang are the most interesting of celebs to do WITB. Their commentary around their selection is the absolute best.
@@ThomasPlaysGolf haha, i like what he has now but i can't give him a hard time... If we had access to the best club fitting machinery, were one of the world's premier club fitters, and tour level access to any equipment in the world at your fingertips, then goodness knows there would be a lot of changing/tinkering going on....😀
Or is it the opposite of what I wrote above?? With access to everything Ian has access to, maybe even better access than tour players because he has similar connections and everything @ his fingertips daily in the shop, perhaps we would only be changing once a year or so... You would have the ability to test anything and everything as soon as or even before it hit the market. you could take weeks or months hitting it daily on the simulator with every Trackman number you need to make up your mind. Then, when you finally put together your bag, you would know without a doubt you've got what works optimally for you and left no Stones Unturned in the search for the gear that suits your game perfectly.... I think I'd be pretty confident... Until I had a one bad round that is...😂
100% to all of that @jackman13. For a week you have the magic bag for your season and then one lesson from Cowx and your whole concept of what’s possible for your game changes so your bag does too. Lol! Plus he probably loves fitting so much he just can’t help it.
I love TXG. Love the new dynamic of Ian with Mikey and RB plus Mac but can’t help to miss Matt with Ian combo. Hope the best for both channels and watch each
Love what you say about consistency in the wood shafts! I’ve always struggled with 3 wood and loved driver but since switching to same shaft in both I find the seamless transition so easy
What really cool is learning what non club things are in your bag… I imagine you get to try all the cool accessories that come in the shop. Love the training aid compared to the speed sticks.
I had a set of Fourteen TB 1000's that I bought used. Of all the clubs I regret selling - that set is the one I wish I still had. They make great irons
Those Fourteen irons have the classic Fourteen feel? Fourteen forgings were always my favorite in feel, even more so than Miuras. Such a soft, marshmallow-y feel. I remember the FH1000's that felt amazing but didn't have great distance.
I would love some. Still expensive even in second hand market here. I bagged myself a £40 "4 iron", bent it 2 degrees weak to 24° to play as my 5 iron and longest steel shaft. So soft.
Ian, interested in your decision to eventually switch to PW,47,52,57,62 considering you are someone who is comfortable with partial shots and that Vokey offers the D grind in 54. Would that extra degree make a PW,48F,54D,60 infeasible? I’m struggling myself with deciding between a 3 and 4 wedge setup so I’m interested in the thought process behind the 5 wedge setup. Thanks Joe
Similar on the feel side with the woods. Have for a long time played the same shaft bend profile in Driver & Fairways just heavier in the fairways. Played Diamana Blue Board for over 10 years. Tensai Orange in Driver; 5w & 7w these days! Also interesting my longest iron is a 6iron….moving to hybrid between the 7w.
Love to see the P760's in the bag! I've had them for a few seasons now since they came out and have no plans on getting rid of em! Cheers, enjoy the season!
Always a pleasure to see what the main man’s playing, where can I get a grove it brush with the TXG branding on! Would love to show my support and rep the boys over the in the UK!
Love this. Another great WITB with top notch editing and close ups. Great questions and input from the Slinger MC right hand man. Would be a great idea, imho, to do a shot tracer witb with distances for each iron after a little chat for each one. A bit like Erik Anders Lang did on the most recent WITB for his Random Golf Club RUclips channel. Just an idea 🤷🏼♀️. People seem to love his video.
Ian - good luck getting on Cypruss, Pine Valley, and Augusta. I wasted my chance to get on Augusta (used to have a way to, never took advantage, now that opportunity is gone). I tried PV and it's not happened for me yet. I did TOC in May and that was awesome with the stands up etc.
Gotta love a WITB. Damn I haven’t done one since 2020!!!! Love it lads, really good vlog. Iain, with the bands, is there any chance you could do a vlog on warm up routines, including the Stack and what clubs you go through if you get the time doing a proper warm up. I think it’d be a really good watch 👍
And the footjoy pure touch for me is the best fitting glove every time. Dicks sporting goods used to offer insurance on them for 3 bucks. Would wear them out and get my money back.
The stealth is so much more consistent than sim2 for me. I feel like my big right miss just kind of straightens out. I just love this driver. Playing it on ventus TR and I’ve never had a better setup
Very interesting, I was fit for a stealth and found it was the wildest off the tee. Ended up with a ping LST. So straight and 75 gram aldilla green x stiff.
These guys are literally the only people I've ever heard say the Stealth was forgiving. Pretty common knowledge that there isn't a more forgiving driver out there right now than the 425.
I love the grove it brush but unfortunately mine fell off my bag. Was playing my fourth round with it, first one in a cart, and the magnet didn’t hold. I was so disappointed
Unfortunately not too many ppl will be able to play these Fourteen irons. ;) Question to Ian: What would be the main disadvantage of just playing the full P760 set for you personally?
I got fit by Mikey and one of the things I didn't buy that he fit me for was a stealth hybrid. The only reason I didn't buy is cuz I had something like $150 at my local store as a rebate just got it freaking love it!
Bought the stealth, ended up with a 4 hybrid even tho got fit for a 3. My swing has changed a bit and when I was fit I wasn't quite swinging it as well. It fits perfectly between my 4-iron and five wood. Have absolutely loved the four hybrid stealth!
Need to start on my bag change looking at complete change . Just a mother few months getting used to swing change Where do you start . Wedges not bad . Putter ok . Irons average and long end u/s
Hey Ian, did you ever try the Miura 1008 irons? I managed to pick myself up a good set of these but was looking for a review on them but cant see any really. If you have tried them or if anyone else has tried them then whats your thoughts on them? Many thanks Ian
Ian, As far as peak height with wedges, does the D grind fly lower than a S grind due to more bounce and a thicker sole? Then for the same reason, does the S fly lower than an M? I feel like the S flies the highest when I hit them though. Your thoughts?
Eagle empire makes a very nice feeling glove but I recently switched to grip Master roo leather grips and love them don't even need to wear a glove anymore I also play best grips leather grips and love them also any thoughts on leather grips ian?
Ian sporting the Oakmont head covers....niceee. That said, all this talk about the 7-wood and you have a hybrid and thinking about a 5-wood..what the? Now, send me those Muria you are not using....no such irons should be collecting dust :P. I also notice multiple different grips on your woods vs irons & wedges...interesting. Lastly, do your driver grips have the embedded Arccos sensors? With respect to the "Holy Trinity" we can all dream a little dream; I hope it happens so you can tell us all about it.
I think like myself, Ian has a bit of OCD and likes things to match when possible. His wood grips / shafts / heads all have matching colors. Irons have steel shafts and same color heads so different grips can be used.
I'm not a big fan of the Stealth but it has seemed to be very spin consistent. Not the absolute fastest out there but as good as any in speed. I think the stock version looks cheap, like it belongs in a package set. I'm talking about the paint work on the crown.
Looks are in the eye of beholder, I like to see something as simple as possible at address with the driver, so Stealth ought not be for me. Yet when I tried it within 3 shots I didn't even notice the red face. Performance was terrific, not the longest possibly but for me it felt as though I was on autopilot
Love having the What and Why in the entire bag! And I couldn't figure out why I love the Ian Mac combo but finally realized it's feels and data but both know how important each other is
I love the little added chip sound at 20:25. That was a nice touch lol

You too Jim!!
Literally woke up today and thought I really hope TXG releases a WITB vid soon and HERE WE ARE

Another option is to make the gloss edges matte. I took some 5k grit automotive sand paper and buffed the gloss out. It’s perfect!!

Bar none, best WITB video published on RUclips.
Quality bag Mr.Fraser, have a great season with them. 🏌🏻♂️⛳️
Love to see people mixing different brands and models of irons into sets. I have 4 different models between 3 and 9 iron myself.
I love those P760 irons. I’d like to have some. They’re the absolutely softest feeling irons I think I’ve ever hit.
Have ya hit the buttery Ping i-210?
@@BuffaloNickel9: Number 2 on the list. Very nice irons.

I knew Ian's WITB/ Why In The Bag wouldn't disappoint!
Brilliant explanations for everything in the bag. Surprised the shaft in the putter is steel and not a stability type!?
Stay tuned for that!!
Hi Ian how do you compare the tpt vs the blue tr. I m supprised the tr is not in your bag yet
Ian, interested in your decision to eventually switch to PW,47,52,57,62 considering you are someone who is comfortable with partial shots and that Vokey offers the D grind in 54.

Funny enough I play a p760 4 iron, 22 bent to 24°, as my 5 iron. Reduces the offset, minimally obviously, with a little more bounce. Lovely club.

What shoes you playing in this season? Went from Adidas to the new puma shoes and totally love them. 👍👍👍
If you're coming to Pittsburgh to play Oakmont, you might as well open a TXG here.

Would those fourteen irons be the same as the tb5 forged irons?
Don't know where else to ask a question, but will you be testing the new Miura KM700 irons?
Great video. May I ask, where was it filmed?
The Pulpit Club near Caledon.
@@ianfrasergolf Cool, thanks Ian.
i think I recognize that practice range!! Rhymes with Rulpit and starts with a P?
😂😂
What is the Name of the Groove cleaner ? Any link to buy it :)?
Groove it brush
Ian rocking the Jordan ADG3s? If so, 👍.
Ian,
As far as peak height with wedges, does the D grind fly lower than a S grind due to more bounce and a thicker sole? Then for the same reason, does the S fly lower than an M? I feel like the S flies the highest when I hit them though. Your thoughts?
Ian "taylor made" Fraser :) you should take over for Trottie.
great video- do you typically walk? If so how is the experience walking with that bag ?
Great bag Ian, have you tried the low bounce K grind?
I have not. I don’t love the wide sole to be honest.
@@ianfrasergolf I've enjoyed the full k grind sm7, would love to try the low bounce but unlikely to get a demo in the UK I imagine
@@ianfrasergolf great vids still by the way 👍
Still using my PGF's I purchased in the early 80's lol.
I’m a p760 guy since they’ve been out
Can you use a tpt shaft in driving iron or the 3 iron that you have the Accra shaft in?
would love to know which hitting mats for normal and rough conditions that you use at txg
Video idea… can you make a super low spin driver forgiving? Ex: TSi4 with a high spinning shaft? Something different and fun challenge
Eagle empire makes a very nice feeling glove but I recently switched to grip Master roo leather grips and love them don't even need to wear a glove anymore I also play best grips leather grips and love them also any thoughts on leather grips ian?
Could you do a comparison between the Taylormade R7 Superquad and 2022 drivers like the Taylormade Stealth.
Nice nerdy vid. Did someone edit in the sound of a turf brush when Ian made the first air swing when talking wedges ? 😄

Curious, what kind of scores do you shoot Ian?
You guys don't sell the grooveit brush anymore?
I love this content i really do. I Would love to see some swings and different types of ballflights you would like to hit as well as an example.
Any intent to throw a stability shaft or LAGP shaft in the putter?
@Ian Fraser any reason why you play a different grip on your woods compared to your irons ?
I think like myself, Ian has a bit of OCD and likes things to match when possible. His wood grips / shafts / heads all have matching colors. Irons have steel shafts and same color heads so different grips can be used.
Standard weights in the Stealth woods Ian?
Yes Tim.
Have the woods been tipped at all? Nice to see the bag coming together and the stealth line is awesome.
All the woods the same weight or 60 70 80?
I'm still rolling my Fisher Touch F1 putter from 2004 😎
Where can we get the brush?
We’ll have them back on the TXG site asap!!
@@ianfrasergolf Thank you for the fast response😁😁 Will grab one once they are up
21:00 After Invictus gloves, I'm sure you mean, Mac 😉
Going to give the foot joy glove a go.
Mixed iron set? Man after my own heart!
Sorry, which model are the Fourteen irons?
RM forged Blades
It would be incredible if we can see Ian hit every single one of his club to show his yardages as well.
Ian let me know if you have a hard time selling those wedges with names stamped on them LOL I'll take em. Also missed no arccos mention!!
great ball for the $, surprised they didn't discuss the price difference. 1/2 the price for the same quality ball, no brainer
Ian you said in a video a couple of weeks ago you were strictly GFore shoes but those don't looked like GFore
stealth looks way better all blacked out than it does red, makes it more relevant to the whole carbon thing too
Hey Ian. Did I miss the ball of choice?
ProV1
if you want to score better hit your drives long but hit your irons short or u can buy the 25 degree 7 iron
Range finder?
No just Arccos.
Rangefinder/ gps??
No, only Arccos.
