[@micahbush739]

all of the youtubers are just loving the yonex drivers this year. Especially the shaft. @Mrshortgame should do a challenge were he switches to yonex clubs for 3 months and see what happens to his score.

[@andrewwolf4963]

Hope it’s not because Yonex is the only one padding pockets lol I don’t mean him I just find it odd that 5 channels I watch have talked about them. Reminds me of when XXIO and PXG came out of no where

[@MrShortGame]

I’ve never been given anything from Yonex. It was just impressive and unexpected

[@fatClyde]

Yonex seems to be the popular choice among the KZbin golfers. That yellow shaft is quite unique also from what I hear. Thanks again for the great content.

[@goingballistic495]

Loved the Cobra Aerojet and Mizuno ST-X.

[@fredwilbur8434]

I enjoyed your comments on all the drivers. When it came to XXIO which model driver were you hitting. XXIO recommends the Prime for slower swing speeds, the XXI2 for moderate swing speeds, and their X model is their players club.

[@shawnmichajluk2044]

Stacked Golf KZbinrs also liked Yonex the most. Definitely going to check them out.

[@TitleWaive1]

Knew you'd like the Mizuno. I play the ST-Z from last year. Love it and I'm an old guy like you too!

[@CamMacMastermusic]

Great video!! Yonex and Mizuno really stepped up their games !! Really interested in the Yonex

[@alexdonaldson4675]

Been waiting for this one ☝️

[@jeremydawkins8399]

I honestly didn't even realize Yonex made clubs anymore. Their ADX300 line was the Ferrari of golf clubs back in the day. That being said the driver sounded very tinny circa 2010.

[@SasquatchPlays]

Played Yonex ADX Tour irons for years, they were extremely good. Glad to see them getting somewhat of a resurgence...more options is good news for everyone!

[@jakecvma8571]

am still useing Zero Limit from early 2000 something , Did ya check the price ? good job dude

[@chrisc353]

I'd be curious to see the numbers comparison between them all, but from the face on angle that Yonnex looked like you couldn't hit it bad the way it laid behind the ball.. you could clearly see the launch it was going to give you.

[@jlnew10]

Yonex....wow. I had a set of the Phil Mickelson forged CB irons in the 90's with a Yonex green and white staff bag. Amazing clubs and expensive. I had the driver for a while, I just remember it was long as anything.

[@GrandTime31]

Was the duel kick shaft your favorite in the Yonex?

[@09Youba]

enjoy your reporting from the show Matt.

[@80norcal]

Hitting bombs is custom Athalonz Shoes? Fun video, thanks for brining the show to us

[@jamesdonaldson1744]

Yonex rocks! Wish I had one!

[@scottsmith6871]

No paradym?

[@racinmoose2132]

That was the same thing that Stacked Golf said about that Mizuno driver yesterday.

[@TGO88Video]

its hard to pick one without looking at address. cause sexiio driver is the one with compact head....

[@joetrigger4538]

When you do these events, if you don't like a club are you able to say that on the channel live infront of the reps? Or does that make things to awkward?

[@alexkady7409]

Social media, ie KZbin is a business just like golf companies and you don't piss off anyone you can get money from. So rarely is there an honest opinion

[@normansykes8872]

I heard Yonex had some new concept that had to do with a double flex shaft?

[@craigsakid]

Did you try the Taylor Made Stealth Drivers?

[@rheffner3]

I'd be happy to have any of those drivers. Mine is 12 years old and the new technology is unbelievable.

[@mfd1068]

I remember when Phil Mickelson played Yonex!

[@marybetheby5184]

I had,and foolishly sold,the 8802 style Yonex putter with graphite shaft that he used.

[@andrewferguson1013]

Hi, did you not try the new Ping G430 range of drivers? Cheers Andrew

[@dwboston1]

Not all club manufacturers are at the PGA show

[@wcardona85]

@@dwboston1Ping is though

[@stevenholmdahl1162]

No Ping 430 LST? What are you currently gaming (head/shaft-specs)?

[@stevenholmdahl1162]

Scratch the first question, just read @Dan Werners reply to that.

[@martinwallingford3773]

A little off topic, I struggle with back spin on the driver. My attack angle is 3-5 degrees on the upswing so why are my spin numbers still 3200-3400 rpm? Could it be the shaft? The head is a Callaway Rouge subzero 7g weight in the front port and 2g weight in rear port. Any suggestions?

[@clintsanderson6019]

It’s a “spin loft” or “dynamic loft” issue. It’s the difference between the delivered loft at impact vs. the static loft of the club. 1). Could be caused by a flip or scoopy delivery. 2). Shaft too soft in the tip section causing too much shaft deflection at impact. 3). Ball too far forward in stance. (Contributes to 1 & 2 above) Low hanging fruit : Change ball position. Try a Titleist Left dash (or AVX) ball. Swing feel: “Feel” like your hands are still ahead of the club through impact while STILL hitting up on it.

[@zekebones34]

What degree driver head do you have and what’s it set at? Also what device is measuring your spin? Track man and Mevo use a spin algorithm and guess spin, use a GC 3,4,or BLP to get accurate spin as it’s camera based.

[@martinwallingford3773]

[@travisweide9071]

seven of Diamond turfiaria adjunct of unimatrix two zero two three. love the mic on the hat! love the divots on the driver only Tee Box! we all know that was you

[@jakepadgett5569]

My poppa always said it’s the magician and not the wand. Does it really matter what brand driver you get? I want a new one since I’m still swinging a taylormade R7 which is very old but it’s overwhelming with 100 different brands and types.

[@melissaandgeoffhaines9320]

Your poppa was a wise man! Hope he didn’t ™️ that saying. 👍 Geoff

[@lorimeyers3839]

The flight and distance with the Yonex and orange shaft…I’d take that over any of em

[@johnangle8141]

Not a single negative word about any of them. Seems honest

[@tomfinn6579]

No trackman info?

[@TM_2024GO]

Good video! Just don’t understand why taylormade and callaway weren’t there

[@MrShortGame]

Good question

[@davidbanks6896]

Had a Yonex 4wd 30 years ago that I wish I had never given away.

[@mattcristino9804]

Cobra for me Matt. Have heard good things about it

[@visarma9673]

The best thing I saw at this years PGA Golf Show was “STOW STICK” in the New Product Zone…. Hands down….

[@greglockwood9003]

May I ask; What happened with Titleist?

[@greglockwood9003]

Are you me? or just my same name. Cheers from OZ

[@Parrott65]

What happened to Ping and Callaway?

[@dwboston1]

Not all club manufacturers are at the PGA show

[@jw152]

From what I saw, Ping had a big line most of the day. Odd no Callaway though. 🤷‍♂️ And yes, ALL major brands were there.

[@pondbossbaits4579]

No Wilson?

[@BKsGolf]

"I haven't hit a Yonex since the 90's." LOL

[@RobBoryckiGolf]

Wow

[@jamesharrington3351]

Golf Digest 2023 Hot List .#1.Callaway Paradym #2.Cobra Aerojet #3.Mizuno ST-Z 230 #4.Ping G430 Max.Titleist is in 7 th place.

[@chadmichael7794]

😂 I think the majority of them will struggle to hang with the tsr line !

[@rojalesgary7355]

MIZUNO all day MSG!?!?!

[@biggregg5]

Not terribly scientific, but a whole lot better than nothing. Maybe you can't tell anything about sound through the speaker of the phone, but to me, the Cobra seemed to have the edge. Maybe Mizuno. Maybe Yonnex.

[@richardfield5176]

Ping G430, Stealth 2......??

[@drummerboy7201]

All about the shaft..(O:

[@griffinmpc8144]

No Ping?

[@mychaljw]

Did Snake Eyes have their new equipment there?

[@pondbossbaits4579]

Snake Eyes has new equipment?

[@mychaljw]

@@pondbossbaits4579 Yep. I just watched the Vid from Stacked Golf a minute ago, and they hit it. Didn't seem impressed, and they said it sounded like a Nike Sumo.

[@davidcooper3317]

Where were ping and Taylormade??

[@CamMacMastermusic]

When it comes to drivers sound Think about this …. Would anyone want quiet dynamite ? A quiet muscle car ? A quiet hammer ? I don’t think so. I think the manufacturers have been hyping up quiet drivers because that’s the result of these new materials they use. Personally when I hit a golf ball I want to hear it ! The louder the better ! And I like the aluminum baseball sound. But that’s just me. I want loud, the louder the better. To each their own.

[@jvelez1998]

TSR all day long. 🙌💪💪👍💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@YakuzaRich]

Doesn't surprise me with Yonex. Every Yonex club I have ever owned has been a superb performer. Still have the old Yonex EZone blades in my basement. Fantastic set of blades.

[@ronaldsinclair6837]

Wished you included the cost, that's pretty darn important Mr. Short Game.

[@bradleywilke7790]

It's not hard to find that information. Stop being entitled and look it up

[@ronaldsinclair6837]

Thanks for that label Bradley

[@markushayes]

Some of the big names don’t even bother showing up anymore.

[@raindogred]

Just came from Bob does sport podcast, they've been turned!!...thank @#$&ing god you didn't say the best driver was a Callaway Paradym..love the honesty Mr Shortgame

[@mychaljw]

Well, the Paradym is doing pretty well on tour the last 3 weeks. Of course the way Rahm is playing, you could probably put a 1991 Big Bertha in his hands and he'd still contend.

[@CaribSurfKing1]

Different shaft for each head makes testing pointless

[@coreygraham796]

The best driver of every year is the guy who drives the ball the best

[@georgepierson9207]

No Taylor Made?

[@Lucky13Twice]

You said the Yonex but didn't say which driver but worse, you can't even go to a golf shop and buy it. Maybe next time pick something readily available as to not have to fly to Japan to buy it.

[@joshuak9412]

Golf shops in my town carry Yonex. I have been using Mizuno, Yonex and Xxio last 10 yrs or so. Out standing clubs.

[@geemac7267]

Folks, if you're one of those people that plops down $500+ for a driver every year because they told you it would be "longer and straighter than ever before", ask yourself how many yards farther you're hitting it now than you were 10 years ago. You're a sucker if you're falling for this $h!t.
