IAN FRASER'S WHATS IN THE BAG

[@IBOTCHvx33]

Cya later CC, hello mr. Fraser...love to see it my man

[@joshnewman9035]

Would love to see a Fraser Golf Institute and Golf Liberty team-up/reunion! Let's go!!!

[@davemarshall2756]

Great to see you back Ian. Best of luck. Will be following.

[@selzbeard1212]

Content from Ian, in any form, is always worth the watch

[@thomashyde1950]

Congrats on the new venture Ian. Best of luck. I predict success. I'll be watching. Cheers.

[@gSF95]

Love to see the monthly witb’s continue on the new channel!!!!

[@clw22580]

I look forward to this WEEKLY series of updates 😂

[@GoFast865]

Been following you for a long while. Great to see you’re independent now. Looking forward to a lot of quality content.

[@BigDawgCAM]

Completely agree with shorter fairway woods. They are just so easy to hit

[@brandonsandberg3500]

Love the new channel, Ian! But… as a Foresight employee… Bushnell does not own Foresight. Bushnell and Foresight are both sister companies under Vista Outdoor / Revelyst. It’s Vista / Revelyst that owns both of us. We are very happy to be partnering and sharing our technology with Bushnell.. and as you alluded to… some exciting stuff coming down the pipeline in the very near future!

[@ArmyGolfBC]

Love the channel and this video. I find myself going back and forth every couple years with driver setup. Start with a bomber weight forward head which gives me sexy indoor numbers but costs me 2-4 a round with lack of control, then switch to a more neutral driver to gain control and end up losing 10-20 yards, then get sick of having par 5s just out of reach and switch back.

[@meldrumclips7536]

Some great colours on those wedges 👌🏼

[@DonPedroMiguel1]

Great to have you back Ian

[@skidbootify]

congratulations on the new venture!!! good stuff!!!

[@gregwayne6785]

I’ve learned a bunch from Ian over the years. Good luck with the new venture.

[@TZOID08]

I love the detail you provide with your mind set and work each club with your game. Merry Christmas !!

[@stephencwilson8151]

Fun to watch as always. Keep us up to date!!

[@benjaminbratt8585]

Congrats, pal. As ever, great stuff to be learned here.

[@sportp9612]

Been a big fan for a long time Ian. Best of luck on the new endeavor! Happy Holidays.

[@Omnis2]

No way. Ian quit TXG/CC just so he could finally make a WITB without conflict of interest 😂

[@dronepocket325]

TXG was the greatest golf channel ever, hopefully this new channel goes that direction.

[@SnoopyGolf]

He starts up multiple companies and sells them off. Happened way before TXG with places like modern golf

[@johnzhang7930]

@@SnoopyGolf I know a real OG when I see the little tidbit on Ian being a prior member of the Modern Golf team

[@ronlandry7672]

I don’t think he “sold off “ Modern Golf. I think he decided to go on his own after working for Modern. He has enough contacts in the industry and possibly felt he could bring a different “customer experience “ to fitting. Obviously it worked…..

[@treeflip7]

Club champion is absolute garbage anyways. Worst fitting experience ever. Absolute scam. I’m sure he didn’t get along with them.

[@dougalbee1125]

I moved from a ventus tr blue 6x to a graphite design CQ 5x for a similar reason! That and finally moving to midsize grip vs std has helped that loft more effortlessly.

[@downshiftgolf]

Proud to be in the bag ! 🙏🙏🙏

[@roryheath9536]

Glad to be back watching your videos! Keep giving us THAT TECH!! Ha.

[@blindsquirrel3123]

Good to see you producing your own content. I’m in!

[@breakandrun70]

Great content of your club selection & their set up, very informative. I also was quit surprised to see you went out on your own, another new adventure, good luck! I will definitely be following you!. Looking forward to the next video.

[@stevenmiddleton7175]

Glad to see some club and equipment knowledge will also land alongside your new content menu. 👍

[@jimvoelz7444]

Lots of valuable information here today. I brought my golf journal book out and took quite a few notes. I’ll share one valuable insight for me. Driver. Per my Arccos data it’s the weakest part of my game. Losing strokes on distance, accuracy and penalties. Mini driver is in the bag for me as my kind of fairway finder. I like the experiment of higher lofted/spin driver to bring that club back under control, living with giving up some yards while refining the driver swing. I’ll be watching throughout the 2025 season to see Ian’s evolution with the driver experiment and see where he goes with it as he refines his driver swing. Should be interesting!

[@DavidMcCallum-m8h]

I love seeing WITB from someone who can quite literally choose the best of everything. Definitely going to try out a shorter FW next season. That Franken 4 wood looks like it would be fun to hit.

[@donkee9]

Brother Ian!! Congrats on a new venture.

[@ChrisJackson36]

I've been toying with the idea of a ventus red in my tsr3 10 degree for just the same effect. I demoed one and it was so easy and repeatable to turn over. Good luck on the new venture Ian.

[@doggoronnie3387]

Immediate sub, been a fan since the TXG days. Pleaseeeeee tell me some of your content will be club reviews, we've got nowhere else to go!

[@JMplaysgolf]

Just saw the “final live”. Learned a lot from the TXG channel and definitely watching your future videos here!

[@timbuma3693]

I did same thing 2 years ago with driver. I put ego aside, had always played a lower spin head. Put in the g430 max and had a few of my best driving years and shot a personal best 68 (5 under) at Streamsong Black this year!

[@timotheafleming422]

The video is great, you need to keep promoting your channel. Is not hard.

[@reidfarrill3917]

I did not realise Ian departed Club Champion. I am surprised at the move.

[@FraserGolfInstitute]

I worked for them for the best part of three years, it was time to get back to doing what I love to do.

[@SWind-hz5gx]

Loving it! ❤ greetings from Germany 🎉

[@alexrobinfuller]

Almost the same as my bag! I play TSR2 9 Degree Pro Force V2, Mizuno 223’s, vokey SM9s! Thinking about trying the new GT mini driver for this year as playing my TSi2 #3 & 5 woods still! Can’t beat titleist & mizuno fraz 😎

[@NewlandGolf]

Love it !!!! New Titleist carry bag it appears as well ? Very interesting to hear your explanations for the driver and shaft switch wouldn't mind trying that option myself.

[@jameswilson1737]

We are with you Ian!

[@stephenmartin4164]

Really looking forward to what’s going to come out on this channel

[@StephenFugarino]

Love my 243s and Smoke mini, thinking about selling the 4 and 5 and going w 245s as the 243s are not that easy to hit compared, been following you for along time love to see you venturing off on your own and starting a channel, life time subscriber here

[@stephendibari5010]

Awesome WITB Ian. Been following you since early days at TXG. Just subscribed today. Can’t disagree with you on sticking with TSR3, your explanation about being more front weighted makes sense. As soon I saw the weight track up front I knew it would be less forgiving. My TSR3 10 deg head playing at B1 is awesome. During my custom fit my CHS on trackman indoors was 96-98 mph which I think is about 100 mph on GCquad. Got fit into hzdrs Red CB 50 g 6.0. Love it.

[@AnthonyMarshall1]

What kind of headcover do you have on your woods?

[@GolForElse]

Enjoyed the video. Fun to hear the what’s and whys of your set makeup.

[@J_B72]

For the Frankenwood, would you tip the shaft for a 4-wood (the loft) or 7 wood (the length and club weight)?

[@rossdrummond1262]

Great as always Ian! Cant wait for Ian’s witb when the Qi35 launches then the updated version when the G440 makes an appearance

[@doggoronnie3387]

Also I have a 10° TSR3 in the bag and it's absolutely elite

[@aussie_golfer]

I have the same setup with my driver, and it's fantastic 👌🏻

[@HoselHacker]

Go on Ian lad well done going it alone. Keep it coming. Hope you’re not missing Mikey too much 😂. Merry Christmas thanks for the hard work and content this year.

[@2bNIKEt1]

I hope Mikey is off camera haha I've been making a bunch of changes this year. Maybe not as detail oriented as I'd like but i don't have the luxury of a fitter within no less than 3 or 4 hours from me. Mizuno has been winning me over. I play an ST-G 5-wood and kicked the 3. Turned down to 17 (might need a shaft) I got a couple S23 wedges to replace my aging Fourteens. They also desperately need a shaft change. And I'm about to receive a ST-Max driver 9.5 with a RDX Smoke Blue which replaces a 2016 Taylormade M2 I'm not super enthusiastic to change lol

[@richardmarsh1769]

Saw the comments on the Club champion videos - glad I stumbled across your new channel !

[@logansoto1422]

Just switched into 243s and they are one of the better irons I've hit in the last few year

[@linjefflin]

Impressive the consistency with the 6 iron. 28 deg dynamic loft with 6 iron? My pro wants me at 22deg with my 7!

[@ericft1]

I remember Ian when you were hitting the G4 30 max driver. It seemed so effortless such a fairway finder. Yes you lost some distance but I totally agree with the path you’re taking. Might be worth looking back at that driver as well or maybe even the 430 LST

[@andershaukoos]

Those OG headcovers go so hard

[@andrewwailes7858]

Good luck with the new channel mate.

[@duncanjones2404]

Merry Christmas. I have the 223 and 225 in long irons. With project x ls 6.5. However, think they are slightly heavy as I have a lower back issue. What woukd you recommend trying like a stuff tip as I got the ball high anyway and keeps it straighter. 7 iron swing speed is around 93mph but can get to 100 if warmed up ha. Thanks in advance if you reply.

[@marklaborde3540]

Love the Mizuno 245/243 choice! Why not a TSR2? Guess it’s not right to left issue for you? Also, what do you do for grips?

[@halfsumo12345]

I have the MCA BB 73TX in my Callaway mini driver, automatic for me, might be a decent profile match with ventus red in the driver

[@FraserGolfInstitute]

Lol, you’re a mind reader. I have one waiting to be built up, 100% going to try that in the mini driver.

[@MoonHouse-cu3py]

What did I miss here? No more TXG/CC??? Subbed either way. Where Ian goes, I will follow.

[@andershaukoos]

He sold TXG to CC, and left CC after a few years of remaining on.

[@AtillaTheJeff]

Cabot Golf Resort quarter zip. Were you on a golf trip with an old friend recently by chance

[@cincpac1c]

Hi Ian: great channel! For your mini, are you using the 11.5* or 13.5* ? you mentioned it plays 43.75" , so with the Callaway driver adapter, it would measure 42.5" from tip to grip? Thanks!

[@ScottDreyfus]

It’s amazing what a softer tip does if you have positive AOA. It’s a cheat code where the stiffer black lead deflects more and moves strike to the bottom, that red will move it up the face without spinning it!. It’s made all the difference in my strike going more “mid” launch. The marketing material has to say something but it rarely has ever played out for me in practice.

[@JeremiahAlphonsus]

Are you suggesting that the increased droop of the red Ventus Velocore+ driver shaft is better for Ian than the black?

[@ScottDreyfus]

@ I’m suggesting if you have an extremely high AOA 5 or more that profile is going to move strike up the face instead of down at the bottom where his usual miss is. Marketing aside it’s just a timing mechanism and what matters is how it moves dynamically through space. Droop is just handle stiffness but lead deflection is what impacts strike. That’s why puring a driver makes no sense . The shaft doesn’t bend statically in a straight line . It’s a squiggly one droops in the handle ,lags in the midsection ,and leads at impact.

[@JeremiahAlphonsus]

@@ScottDreyfus Would a black profile be better for those with a driver angle of attack closer to 0 or even negative?

[@ScottDreyfus]

@ there is no exact formula. It’s all you based. I can’t guess at darts in the dark. If you have a specific question and launch data I can give you an educated guess but I’ve never seen you swing. I started learning the trade in 1993 though so I have a little experience 🤣

[@mike23lee]

Hey ian congrats and good luck with new channel. Id love to hear more about CG location and how that affects flight, in regards to your conversation with jim furyk the other day. Also would love to hear your opinions on single length irons or the new combo from avoda. Thanks and good luck

[@THE306GOLF]

Love to see you doing your own thing Ian, all the best in 2025!

[@StevenDietrich-k2w]

Subbed about an hour ago. Cancelled my sub somewhere else. Ian is the man. Hopefully we'll see some fittings, like with The Rocket, on this channel as well.

[@retired8123]

I really enjoyed the videos of Ian getting lessons from Mr. Raflewski...especially outdoors . Hopefully some outdoor lessons make it to the channel. putting, chipping all situations, partial shots! Maybe a swing coach on course diagnosing what Ian's swing is missing outdoors compared to indoors...for me alignment is a lot more difficult outdoors

[@Ducebogies]

What's up dude glad to follow you on your new Channel 😊

[@craigallen6948]

Great new channel. What grips are you using? I have arthritis in my hands and am looking for something new.

[@tyrone3032]

lol. Already with the WITB video. Look forward to seeing the update in January

[@JohnFishburne1]

Im playing two drivers this year. A TSI 3 8 degree and a g430 max. A bomber and a fairway finder.

[@JeremiahAlphonsus]

Good man. Phil used to sometimes play with two drivers.

[@dbauer26]

Stoked for more Ian! I too am tinkering with driver, mini driver @11.5, a shortened 4w, and then 4i. What hosel setting are you playing the shortened 4w at? Looking forward to the new content!

[@J_B72]

Every Batman needs a Robin, Ian. Who’s interviewing?

[@igolffff]

Please, no wunderboy

[@benross422]

Love the 2 Lob Wedges and the extra driver head. K Star is so hot right now, like Hansel. How long do you give the driver shaft? Until the PGA Show? . Love the Mizunos! Vosh can you hear me. ❤‍🔥

[@JeremiahAlphonsus]

I have both the Vokey and Mizuno T24 wedges. I’ve found the T24 wedges superior in every respect, including spin and a soft, buttery feel.

[@FraserGolfInstitute]

Lots of people love Mizuno wedges.

[@nathanjones9221]

Hi Ian, love the content, what length do you play the 5 wood at and what sleeve setting?

[@FraserGolfInstitute]

42” A1

[@Gafgarion852]

Looking forward to Ian's monthly WITB.

[@andrewhay8033]

Ian does the wee metal bristle standard groove cleaners damage your grooves at all?

[@FraserGolfInstitute]

No, it’s fine.

[@cordy649]

Hey man congrats on the new gig! Curious question for ya. What kind of grips do you use and what size for a medium glove user like yourself vs a large glove user.

[@Fullcasa8]

I also still game my TSR with my GT in the head cover in my bag but it’s the same specs. Thought that was funny

[@EricRoe-g2f]

Ian, would a ventus red stiff shaft be comparable to the ping tour chrome 2.0 stiff shaft?

[@kevinbreeden52]

What sort of swing weight progression do you have in your irons/wedges?

[@FraserGolfInstitute]

@@kevinbreeden52 D2.5 in 4i to D5.5 in 60deg

[@tomashmore4128]

Love a WITB from you, great to see you going back to the draw I think that is your natural shape. with your 5W what would you class as standard 7W length?

[@wskrsjelly3207]

I play a 16.5 wood at 7 wood length too!

My Liege, Did your driver struggles in Jacksonville lead you back to the TSR 3? You’re absolutely money with that driver. Love the new content and channel. Great work as always.

[@marcopellegrini3883]

Blacked out TXG headcovers?

[@roryheath9536]

You’ve had those BirTees as a constant in your video from feels like day one. I’d like to see you analyze the difference in spin Vs a Prolength Tee and Vs something like a Zero Friction tee. I’ve noticed vast differences in spin and trajectory going from indoors to outdoors and using different tees.

[@mikejones5493]

Ian, are you available for a fitting in the future? If so, where in the GTA would it happen?

[@FraserGolfInstitute]

No, I’m not fitting in the GTA for the foreseeable future Mike.

[@florisbot]

I’ve been fit for AI Smoke fww’s recently and I just can’t with them. Face it too shallow, they want to hook and I’m giving up too much distance. That Titleist 4W head in the 7W length looks exactly like what I need.
