This was such an incredible experience! Thanks to Marshall and Fujikura for having us in, I am so happy with the new driver. I am excited to see all the bunkers I can carry off the tee now! And no more spontaneous drivers off the deck with this baby LOL
Claire. You are such a pleasure to watch on the golf course. Your personality is so uplifting, you are always smiling and laughing and you have a beautiful golf swing. You bring so much "positive energy" to the Channel! Continue to be your natural self and uplift everyone around you. 👍😎
with all do respect for you Claire...catching up to Paris in driving distance is a HUGE hill to climb!! LOL However, as Coach stated...you still have to chip and putt, which is the strongest part of your game!! Keep it up Claire, I enjoy watching you battle it out!!!
That’s awesome! I got fitted with SIM2 10.5° with Fujikura Ventus Blue and gained 15+ more yards. TaylorMade needs to hurry and ship my driver!!! I can’t wait until see your next video using that beast..congrats!
I definitely need to get fitted for a new driver, been using the same R1 driver since 2013. Technology has improved, my game has improved, I would love to see what a new driver fitting could do for me.
Just amazing what a fitting will do for someone. I just went through my first ever fitting(full bag) and I felt same happiness at my new numbers as Claire was in this video. Congrats, can't wait for the upcoming content
Good luck with the new driver. I think you will have closed the distance gap with Paris assuming you're not trying to outdrive her all day. I'm looking forward to seeing you & Paris play on Golfholics.
The accuracy of ladies in gold, is something special, just watching there swing, i think many amatures can watch and learn the basics, let get more young girls playing this wonderful game
Such a great video. I switched to the motore x 6.6g reg and I can honestly say it's the best shaft I have played. Claire swing is super smooth I could watch her smash balls all day long.
Claire, another great video. You highlighted the benefits of custom fitting. The comparison between your TM M2 Driver and the TM SIM2 Driver/shaft was the proof! Love the analysis and explanation of how the shaft flex/weight can influence ball speed, swing speed, and squaring the face. You are going to be bombing your drives with the improved carry distance, watch out Paris! 😀
Really like the 'Techie' aspect of this vid. Would love to see more too. Let's be honest, Boys and their Toys isn't a saying for no reason. Bloody graceful swing too.
Great video! Pretty good gains from proper fitting. Would like to see fitting video with Paris, not sure if she needs a new driver. Would be fun to watch though🤷♂️👍
Can't wait to see the next head to head with "P"! You should be giving her a run for her money off the tee! That lady can bomb it! Congratulations on the new driver!
Golfholics gold. Claires is awesome. Personality++. Great camera work Coach. I'm partial to a bit of facetiousness, so great vocal work too Coach. Can't wait to see Claire use it on the course.
I am a Fujikura fan thanks to how effortless Golfholics hits fairways but when getting fitted by Taylormade I didn’t say anything. I let them fit me for the best performing shaft and what do you know ended up with (Ventus Blue with Velocore) Game changers 👊🏾😎
I absolutley love fujikura ventus blue 6s it's by far the best shaft I've ever used. I game it in my driver, 3 wood, and one day maybe my 5 wood. Great video and look out P, Claire is coming. Lol
I'm surprised Coach didn't kicked in the sack for the short game comment. It's definitely one of Claire's strengths on the course! Have fun with the new stick Claire and go hit some BOMBS!
WTG Claire. Your enthusiasm is awesome. My #1 driver I use is the 2017 M2. I love mine. TM 3 wood, 5 wood and 3-19* Hybrid too. Love your videos. Subbed to your new channel. Enjoy your new driver.
Looking forward to what this will do to your game Claire! Congratulations. I was hoping to get fitted early last year, but stupid COVID took over the world. Now I haven't played much in a year+, so I need to get my game back and then try to get fitted again. Love this channel and all the Golfholic's peeps do! Keep up the inspirational work!
Another option would be to adjust your tee height up with the old driver. Hitting low on the face is going to drop the smash factor, drop to launch angle, and increase the spin. All 3 of those are bad news!
Great video. Maybe you guys can do one of Paris getting fit or you guys getting putter fittings or irons. I don’t think you guys need new fittings because you guys are hitting it good
I did the Club Champion fitting for my new driver last fall. Ended up with the Maverick and gained 20+ yards over my Original M2. She had the second generation M2. Fitting is critical. I needed up spending 800 bucks. A little frustrating that a new generation club came out 6 months later. Hope Claire has the same results I have. She seems very thin in this video. You can see that Paris is just physically stronger, especially her legs.
Don't know how this feed showed up on my golf page but wow cute woman with a great athletic golf swing! One of the better ones ive seen. I have no clue who you are but im sure you played college golf and maybe dabbled on some mini tours. Sub'd to this channel cool video and looking forward to more videos with the Beautiful Claire.
I enjoy watching Claire be her bubbly, expressive self. What a joy! Now would be interesting to see her work on all the other things to give her more distance like strength & fitness training, swing technique, and mental game. Claire's journey to 275! Make it happen!
Claire not even once you swung Paris's driver? Now to hit just as far with her is gonna be some competition. Coach you better take that back, she can chip and putt like a pro. Thanks Golfholics for making great videos
Are all the shafts cost upgrades or free substitution shafts? What was final cost of the club? Had friend get driver fitting and price of club with different shaft and grip went from approximately $500 to $999.
This was a cool video thanks. Claire, the swing is looking good as well as the new hair color. Do blondes really have more fun? I know they get more distance with a driver!!!! Take care.
I've been thinking about getting fit for clubs for a couple years now, but since last year my game has been on the shelf. Would you guys recommend getting back into the swing of playing before getting fit? My last couple rounds have been very consistent off the tee...and where is Marshall located? A swag of Carlsbad, maybe? Thanks for the vid and congrats on the improvement, Claire :-)
is Claire feeling she needs to catch up to Paris’s driver? Claire, your short game was amazing. hopefully you don’t lose that on your journey for length. keep it up
@@TheChainChasers i hear what you’re saying. i wrote that comment while i was watching the video and Claire pretty much confirmed what i was stating. during her and Paris’s scramble matches, they’re always going with Paris’s drive. you can tell from their videos, Claire’s a true competitor. you can see that she hates that her driver comes up shorter than Paris’s. but claire has a much better short game compared to Paris’s (in my opinion) anyways, it’ll be fun to see if Claire starts to out drive Paris and if Paris will go get fitted for a new driver.
252 is LPGA level driving distance for sure. I’d be interested what a TXG golf (Ian) would have recommended in comparison. I like Marshall and Fujikura but maybe there is even more out there for her. Striping it down the center is the best part of her game. Who cares about another 20 yards if she can be with 4-5 yards of a perfectly straight shot.
Things have changed on the LPGA recent years. 252 avg. is not that long anymore, that will put you at 110th in driving distance on LPGA right now. 240 avg. is lasted place in distance. 295 avg. leads LPGA right now and it's getting longer every year. From the ANA earlier this year. "He plays a game with which I am not familiar,'' Jones famously said about Nicklaus. "The same could be said about Patty Tavatanakit’s performance this week at Mission Hills Golf Club. The 21-year-old from Thailand has led the way since Day 1 at the ANA Inspiration, using her distance to overwhelm the golf course. The LPGA Tour rookie ranks ninth on Tour in driving distance, and this week, has averaged 326 yards off the tee. Throughout Saturday’s round, Golf Channel’s Judy Rankin marveled at the places Tavatanakit placed the golf ball. Tavatanakit is playing the course in a way that Rankin, the winner of the 1976 ANA Inspiration, has never seen before. "
@@garyknight2994 I also looked up the statistics. Lydia Ko is at ~258 (ranked 80th) to Cheyenne Knight hitting ~246 (ranked 147th). So 67 players inbetween that 12 mph range. Their accuracy levels are so good though and I think it’s a strategy that is different than Men’s golf which has turned ridiculous. Of the 168 players that had statistics, about 40% are in that range. I think Claire and Paris could easily keep up with the pack.
@@MikeinAustin I'm not saying she can't. But you also have to consider that's her best in a booth getting fit for club. The average LPGA player is doing it in tournaments playing for their livelihood, and not necessarily trying to hit as far as they absolutely can every time. I'm not trying to discount anyone. I'm just saying it's much more difficult to put up numbers in tournaments when you livelihood depends on it, verses during a Driver fitting. Have a Good Rest of the Day!!
Not surprised it was a loft issue. I’ll never buy a head unless it’s fitted. And even when it’s fitted, I’m only buying the shaft and getting a tour issue head off eBay.
These videos are great. If you're thinking of buying a new driver: PLEASE GO GET FITTED! The shafts in driver/woods are so important, way more important than the head.
This was such an incredible experience! Thanks to Marshall and Fujikura for having us in, I am so happy with the new driver. I am excited to see all the bunkers I can carry off the tee now! And no more spontaneous drivers off the deck with this baby LOL
Paris is going to race of to get a fitting done or she won't be longer of the tee any longer 🤣
Your swing is poetry in motion
Have you done any work to increase swing speed? I’ve been looking at those stupid speed sticks and may try them out.
I'm not sure what driver Maiya had but when you were using it your shots were really good.
Claire. You are such a pleasure to watch on the golf course. Your personality is so uplifting, you are always smiling and laughing and you have a beautiful golf swing. You bring so much "positive energy" to the Channel! Continue to be your natural self and uplift everyone around you. 👍😎
I am a simple man. I see Claire, then I click like button
Claire hits the ball so damn straight! What a beautiful swing!
Ben Hogan would be sitting at the end range watching Claire, trying to figure what he could incorporate into his swing.
Love Claire's enthusiasm when she is on the channel. How can you not love seeing her. Keep up the great work Claire
What a delight that girl is on a Monday! Looking forward to seeing that Sim2 chasing Paris up the fairways!
with all do respect for you Claire...catching up to Paris in driving distance is a HUGE hill to climb!! LOL However, as Coach stated...you still have to chip and putt, which is the strongest part of your game!! Keep it up Claire, I enjoy watching you battle it out!!!
The Ballerina of Golf......Animal!! Timmy C Arizona
Love the dedication to the outfit for an indoor fitting lol
Really glad she got fit for a new driver.
That's one very happy Claire 🏌️♀️
Yes it was! I'd be happy with 8-10 yards...15-20 is insane!
That’s awesome! I got fitted with SIM2 10.5° with Fujikura Ventus Blue and gained 15+ more yards. TaylorMade needs to hurry and ship my driver!!!
I can’t wait until see your next video using that beast..congrats!
I always love watching fitting videos
Claire has such a smooth, controlled, powerful swing. Picture perfect 🥰
Amazing what a fitting can do for your game. Congrats on the additional distance and tighter dispersion!!

This is accurate content, not like some other golf videos where peoples swings look much slower than Claire's but they hit it farther
Can't wait to see the next head to head with "P"! You should be giving her a run for her money off the tee! That lady can bomb it! Congratulations on the new driver!
Claire is going to be crushing it now. She seems pumped for sure.
Golfholics gold. Claires is awesome. Personality++. Great camera work Coach. I'm partial to a bit of facetiousness, so great vocal work too Coach. Can't wait to see Claire use it on the course.
Claire is the reason I watch this channel. Mike, Marco and the other ladies are all great too but Claire is my fave by far.

Love my Fuji Pro 2.0 shaft. Made difference in my game. Have it on Taylormade M 5 440 cc tour head set 9 degrees.
Fascinating video. What a swing Claire has. Awesome stuff. Keep this excellent content coming!
Thank you! Will do!
Just got fitted for irons, and now can’t wait to get fitted for a driver! Great session Claire!!
I've just bought that exact head and shaft combination!
but are you just as good looking in a miniskirt?
nice club fitting, I can't wait to see you and Paris play together, and see how you do. Great video
Wow…. My clubs are old, and now i really realize i need to do this! That was impressively consistent driving too, must be easy to fit that
Totally geeked out. loved the shaft properties explanation and the justification to go Reg 5.
Paris will be taking ur drives now Lol
Thank you, very interesting fitting, enjoyed the video.
Claire, you have as nice a swing as ANYONE on the LPGA tour....and thanks a lot....now I want to go get driver-fitted!!!
What a swing she's got!
OUTSTANDING EPISODE. great job Claire
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching!
Good luck with your new driver
Looking forward to what this will do to your game Claire! Congratulations. I was hoping to get fitted early last year, but stupid COVID took over the world. Now I haven't played much in a year+, so I need to get my game back and then try to get fitted again. Love this channel and all the Golfholic's peeps do! Keep up the inspirational work!
I love this. I am 53, and a little overweight, and I hit it as far as she does. Claire’s swing is super analogous to my game.
Would’ve been nice to see an outdoor fitting to see ball flight and trying other clubheads but glad to see a big improvement in numbers for Claire.
Great vid guys. Cant wait to see it on the course.
Thanks coach for a great job
I love how excited Claire was to see the improvements in the new driver setup. Good luck Claire!!!
I could watch Claire swing all day long !... Sweet !
Another option would be to adjust your tee height up with the old driver. Hitting low on the face is going to drop the smash factor, drop to launch angle, and increase the spin. All 3 of those are bad news!
Sweet Vid ! Marshall is so cool !
Agreed! Great guy and great at his job!
Great video. Maybe you guys can do one of Paris getting fit or you guys getting putter fittings or irons. I don’t think you guys need new fittings because you guys are hitting it good
Great info. Go get em girl. Great hits.
Such a graceful swing!
Claire should never get ONE "thumbs down"! Love her, the channel, and the videos!
Another great video Claire! You’re amazing!
It is amazing how much distance increases with the right shaft, length, loft, shaft weight and bend profile.
Hmm, I'm getting tempted to ditch my old M2 as well. Sure wish Marshall lived in my town.
Claire looks so giddy, and great results. Happy for her.
Go for it!
Claire you crushed every shot straight down the middle! Yep Paris better look over her shoulder now.😂
Can't wait to see how the driver works for you on the course.
"still gotta putt and chip bro"
Coach out here crushing dreams lol
Beautiful swing xo
Awesome content Claire!
Awesome stats, what a great experience.

Claire is such a babe lol love the videos as always, guys!
Such a beautiful swing
can watch CH swing all day 🔥🔥
Looking good sweet!!! Keep it up
Love your new driver. Don’t forget to get a new cleat in your right shoe.
Glad to see Claire getting dialed in. Freaking bombs
Sweet upgrade Miss Claire get er done all day long. Yahoo
Wow, your consistency is admirable. I need to invest in a fitting and hopefully gain a few extra yards too. 😎
Don't know how this feed showed up on my golf page but wow cute woman with a great athletic golf swing! One of the better ones ive seen.

This was a cool video thanks. Claire, the swing is looking good as well as the new hair color. Do blondes really have more fun? I know they get more distance with a driver!!!! Take care.
Jeez, Marshall is quite a professional
first - Claire's gone blonde! second - several slow mo's of Claire driving. it's a thumbs-up from me👍

Claire’s short game is amazing. Like the driver video but is there a chance we’re going to see some tutorials around the green?
is Claire feeling she needs to catch up to Paris’s driver? Claire, your short game was amazing. hopefully you don’t lose that on your journey for length. keep it up
I'm thinking she just wanted the appropriate driver...she did nothing to her swing, just updated technology

She will no outdrive paris unless it's her best ball compared to a paris mishit. There is no substitute for speed.

She’s not chasing distance. Her old driver was 4 or 5 generations old.

Super video! Isn’t 45 1/2 inches quite long for her height? Curious what average length is for LPGA players. Would think control could be a problem.
Not surprised it was a loft issue. I’ll never buy a head unless it’s fitted. And even when it’s fitted, I’m only buying the shaft and getting a tour issue head off eBay.
Hitting. BOMBS!
Get it you seem pretty passionate with golf
Very insightful vid, but would’ve loved to have seen different head options other than SIM 2,, or are Fujikura allied with TM ?
Hi, just wanted to mention that the change from M2 to SIM2 wasn't discussed. How much in yardage increase was due to shaft vs head?
Beautiful, graceful, likable, athletic. Surely there's paying work for Claire as a golf club shill or marketer. ...An in person or video spokesperson.
These videos are great. If you're thinking of buying a new driver: PLEASE GO GET FITTED! The shafts in driver/woods are so important, way more important than the head.
