    I nudged ball position forward about 1" on a shot with the 5-wood the other day to get a little higher flight and let it ride the wind. Huge change. Better strike, better flight, straighter. So I kept doing it to see if it would work some more. And it did! Such a tiny change made such a big difference. Can't wait to watch it steadily creep forward until I start topping them and decide I need a new 5-wood.

      Same here. I love seeing the numbers and how something so simple as striking the ball with the right part of the club is so dependent on where the ball is in your stance.

    I got fitted by the Titleist Tour Van about 5 years ago at my club. Saw the same dude fitting Dufner in the next month of Golf Digest. He was awesome and we geeked out for an hour because I ask questions like a 6 year old. I pulled the old hybrid out of my bag because it was so inconsistent. Fitting made a huge difference (-0.5" shaft, right kick point, etc.), obviously, but the best advice was, "Make the grass dance." The grass in front of the ball should be lightly scraped, but no divot. Having that visual was very helpful for me. That's the last thing I say before pulling the trigger on my hybrid and I've become a very consistent hybrid player. Thought I'd pass that along since that was helpful for me.
    @TXG - as a fellow lefty Canadian, now enjoying 12 months of golf a year in California, keep the content coming! Numbers junkies like me are loving it!

      I totally agree that I need this video too ... However I didn't get: What I needed to do so that I could hit my fairway wood or IF I tried a Hybrid what to do properly. I agree that Matt sure can do what ever's asked of him as some other commented earlier. I don't think I fell asleep any one of the three times I watched so I wonder what I've missed.

    So many of these little data nuggets and gems are buried in some of the club review videos from the past couple of years, but to have a concise explanation and demonstration of how setup influences the launch conditions is absolutely PRICELESS. You are inspiring and creating better golfers with this content. Absolute LOVE for you boys!

    I like hybrids. I have a complete set of them instead of using irons. I agree with you guys. Play the ball slightly ahead in your stance and I sweep it disturbing the ground a small amount. Works well for me. I have had pro's at clubs tell people to hit down on the ball. Might work for some but I like my way better. Great review guys !!! Enjoyed seeing this. Joe

    So i want to say your content is excellent for the levels you seem to be providing for. Having played golf for over 50 years and playing to a 10 handicap, once was a 3 most folks or avergae golfers cannot come close to swinging like Matty. Great mechanics. I believe you need a more balanced mix for the average guy and your tube would be perfect.. Just my thoughts.

    Excellent instructions! As a senior golfer, I do not carry a fairway wood. I do have a 16degree hybrid which I can hit almost as far as most my age hit a 3 wood. When I was younger my index was under 5, (now almost 10) and I could hit long irons. I think this is why I like the hybrids better than the fairway woods.

  • @IrishMace99
    @IrishMace99 4 года назад

    I got this same advice in a recent fitting. For my hybrids I used to play the ball in about the same spot as my mid irons. Moved it up a bit and my contact immediately got much better, especially on a good swing. No amount of ball positioning seemed to help with a fairway wood, though, so we ditched it and went with a 2H instead.

  • @AlanHiggins009

  • @DavidSmith-lo7wf
    @DavidSmith-lo7wf 4 года назад +1

    Pretty much never hit 3wd off the deck anymore. Just don't have the confidence. It goes a long way, and can go very badly if it's just slightly off. Similarly my hybrid is rarely used for inconsistencies. Most time I just take what I can get with my 4 iron on long holes. It more likely stays in play and even if I have a pitch left or something that's still better than the risk... Need to work on this.
