If you’re generating enough speed and distance but are looking for added workability in a compact package, then the new Callaway Rogue ST Triple Diamond LS Driver is for you.
If you’re generating high swing speeds but too much spin, you’re not going as far or as straight as you could. The new Callaway Rogue ST MAX LS Driver is here to fix that.
With so many iron fitting options available, it may seem impossible to find your perfect match. But we are here to show you that it's possible. That golf can be easier.
On Tour they get into a great position to sink putts time after time. But their putter length is set to make that a comfortable setup. Off-the-shelf putters are not.
The difference in swing speed between regular Tour Professionals and most amateurs isn’t much, but the tee shot distance difference is greater than it should be.
There is an argument that the biggest leap forward in performance is not the actual design of golf clubs but our improved understanding of impact, launch and ball flight. Are we about to make another leap?
Every golfer, no matter the experience level, sees the benefit after a custom fitting. Data on the results of fittings tells us who usually sees what benefit.
There are many variables that impact on the backspin created at impact. Understanding some simple physics helps us to get to the right combination of launch angle, ball speed, and spin rate to add 20+ yards to your tee shot.
Lift will play a significant part in getting your next flight off the ground. Back spin generates lift for your golf ball, but how much is too much for you?
Over the last 3 weeks, we’ve been trying to persuade you to follow the link and answer three very simple questions. We don’t want any personal data that could compromise you. OK, we’d like your name. But actually we’re interested in your opinion and thoughts.
You’re playing an approach shot into the green. You’ve got a target. You’re telling yourself it’s large. “No big deal. ”You’re settling over the ball with really positive swing thoughts. Hold on. If you haven’t already done so, I have three very simple questions.
Everyone has at least one hole that spoils the card or round too often. If it’s a long Par 4, for most of us, it’s usually not the tee shot that causes us the challenge. The approach shot often requires a long Iron / Hybrid. Imagine you’ve hit the perfect shot. If you haven’t answered them, there are three very simple questions.
Just how difficult is it to find the right combination of shaft length, lie angle, shaft type, and shaft flex to match your golf swing? It’s 1 out of how many?
If you want to hit better Iron shots, then remember accuracy starts with the right combination of lie angle and shaft length. There are usually over 150 to choose from.
It’s just an Iron, from a set. This one’s a #7 Iron. You’re about to use it for your 2nd shot after a smoking-hot tee shot. The green’s guarded with water on the right, bunkers at the front. Now just three very simple questions.
There are three checks you should think about if you want to have a Fairway Wood that offers you the potential of recoveries made, and opportunities taken.
The world’s wild rhino population is in grave danger of becoming extinct within the next 5-10 years. Rhino Revolution is tackling the poaching crisis on three fronts: supporting anti-poaching activities, community environmental education and a rhino orphanage - rehabilitating orphaned rhino calves for release back into the wild. Please support by donating US$10 to Rhino Revolution and stand a chance to win a signed golf shirt worn by Justin Rose winning the gold medal at the Rio Olympics AND an unbelievable Golf Safari to South Africa for 2 persons (Value+ US$15,000).
We have some simple questions about your wedges. If you can take a few minutes to answer them, then you’ll go into a draw with the chance to win prizes.
At the moment of impact, the putter needs to lift the ball out of the small depression it will be in, on the green. Your putter needs to match your stroke.
As they attempt to regulate the Tour Professionals, those who rule over the game have introduced rules to restrict the maximum spring off the face (CoR) and the maximium clubhead forgiveness (MOI) to try and slow down the fastest swingers.
A lot is made each year of groove technology in Wedges. Sharper, more precise grooves offering even more spin and control. That does rather divert us from the real issue with grooves. They wear.
The better manufacturers have now mastered creating cores that have a high energy transfer (for fast ball speed) from a low compression (for great feel).
If you’re interested in your choice of golf ball (and you should be) you’ll have heard a lot about new releases of golf balls having lower compression to create a softer feel. Let’s start with the explanation of compression.
Even if golf is a social adventure with a group of friends, with the final score mattering less than the enjoyment together, there’s a reason to get fitted for the best tee shot result.
Last week we reproduced some research into tee shot distances with the driver. It highlighted that we’re certainly playing a different game to the Tour Professionals.
Using data supplied by Game Golf, the team at Golf Digest produced a very interesting article that showed us the average distances regular golfers hit their driver.
In the last weeks we’ve told you that, if you had an average swing speed, an improvement of just 0.04 in smash factor (ball speed / clubhead speed) would add nearly 11 yards to your tee shot distance, if all else was equal.
Three golfers, two who swing quite aggressively but struggle to find the hitting zone are several yards shorter than the golfer with very steady swing speed who does find the hitting zone.
For the average swing speed golfer, just improving their smash factor (that’s a measure of how close to the sweet spot they strike the ball) by 0.04 will add nearly 11 yards to their tee shot.
This club transformed golf for all golfers, not just the inexperienced. But, although it was originally designed for the less experienced, it’s the better players who’ve taken most advantage of this club.
There are so many aspects of “fitting” that make a difference to the ease with which you can hit better golf shots. Club weight and swing weight are two that are often overlooked by golfers. Both will impact on the feel and your ability to swing with your best tempo.
There is no doubt that feel matters to all golfers. It’s true that very good and experienced golfers might be able to detect the smallest changes to swing weight, but that shouldn’t interfere with the conclusion that swing weight influences swing consistency and ball striking consistency.
When we’re helping you select a new golf club(s), we’re trying to help you find a club configuration that allows you primarily to reach your highest level of good shot consistency.
Up to what distance are you comfortable with your ball striking skills and where does either or both of your ball striking and accuracy start to break down? How could you extend that distance?
Most amateurs have a big loss in ball striking consistency the higher up the bag they go. That makes longer Par 4’s and Par 5’s more difficult than they should be.
Although each of these Drivers has the same head size and the same loft (and the same shaft flex), each Driver, when placed on the robot tester, will launch the ball with different launch angles and spin rates creating very different ball flight and trajectory.
I know the experts worry about the Professionals overpowering golf courses, but most of us are in no danger of doing that. While most golfers are landing tee shots out in the 220-yard mark, the top Professionals are going beyond 300 yards.
High MOI Putters resist twisting. That’s especially important when you strike the ball towards the heel or toe. And most golfers, as soon as a putt is longer than 20 feet are inclined to become quite inconsistent in finding the sweet spot. Here’s a great way to measure your performance.
Improve your ability to consistently find the sweet spot on your Putter or use a high MOI Putter to improve both your control of distance and accuracy. Making sure your Putter is fit to allow you to make a consistent stroke also helps.
If you’re more of a regular golfer than a touring Professional then a high MOI Putter will improve both your control of distance and accuracy. So will making sure your Putter is fit to allow you to make a consistent stroke.
Too many golfers treat the Putter like it’s a magic wand. They magically found one that ‘fit’ them. Sometimes, by magic, it works and sometimes it doesn’t.
These two Wedges have the same bounce angle, but the one on the right raises the leading edge more, and offers more bounce, because the sole width extends the lower sole position.
When we look in most golfers‘ bags, they’re carrying just 2 clubs to cover the short-game scoring zone while they’re carrying 7 clubs to cover the next 100 yards.
If you and a few friends want to find an alternative to a gym session, or need an excuse to spend an hour at the golf facility, then ‘Par 18’ is great fun and a great way to practice.
Our mission is to help more golfers have more fun beyond the 1st tee. We know that it isn’t all about the scorecard or handicap. We know golf’s a lot more fun when you’re hitting better golf shots.
Really? Two golfers are 150 yards from the green. One is a very low handicap golfer with great ball striking skills. The other is an inexperienced golfer who struggles with ball striking.
Many golfers think that as long as they know what shaft flex they require, then they can always find a club that fits them. Not so, I’m afraid. Some use online fitting tools matching swing speed to flex. That doesn’t work either.
The multitude of club performance technology on the market nowadays gives you a lot more options to improve your game, but you can only really benefit from this technology if it is set up to your swing and playing style, that’s where we come in.
There are a lot of golfers out there reading every magazine and online article or watching every advert or TV show to find extra distance. But these are full of ‘generalisations’ that might or might not work. Why not get the job done properly? This golfer added more than 20 yards to his tee shots with a simple Driver fitting.
Both these golfers see golf as a social pastime. It’s an opportunity to have an enjoyable outdoor hobby that they can enjoy with friends. They like to hit good shots but know they won’t have the time or inclination to commit to be as good they can be.
If you’re a mid, or even higher, handicap golfer and you’re keen to lower that handicap, then the quickest route to that result is to sharpen up your short-game around the green.
Phil is long off the tee and he’s a good ball striker. But despite all the opportunities created, he struggles getting shots in the 60 – 90 yard distance close. If he plays a half-swing Wedge, the ball doesn’t hold the green and a full Sand Wedge has the habit of going high and long, or high and short.
Sally's tee shots are a bumble down the fairway. they don't have much height, and most of the distance she gets is the run she gets on the ball. How could an assessment help her?
The Fairway Wood shot from the close-cut fairway is one of the hardest shots there is to play for most golfers. Many struggle to get this shot airborne on a good trajectory.
So many golfers come to us with a request for a particular new Driver model and tell us what loft they need. A new model will create new launch conditions.
Tension is a killer in the golf swing. It easily robs you of distance. More importantly, once it inhibits your large muscles, then accuracy and consistency disappear.
When we're looking at your golf swing and analysing your ball flight, despite all the advertising around 'deeper and lower' Centre of Gravity (CoG) locations, we're examining all of the impacts on your trajectory and spin rate.
When we get together with you, our job isn’t to ‘fit you for new Irons’; it’s to help you enjoy the thrill of hitting better golf shots. There are many routes to that end. We’ll assess your swing in at least 3 ways
Most everyone understands what the lie angle on their Irons is. And most understand the impact of a Lie Angle that is too upright or too flat on their accuracy.
It's almost impossible to drag a club off the shelf and for it to be the perfect fit. If the combination of lie angles and shaft lengths wasn't enough, add the stock shafts and the different flexes and you get a huge number of options.
Golf club manufacturers have been working hard to make it easier for you to swing the golf club faster without extra effort. Recently we've seen clubs getting lighter, but now Cleveland Golf have introduce low swing MOI golf clubs.
