Low Handicap Iron Fitting

txg.ca - Fitting a 2 handicap player for new irons! After gaining speed and consistency over the off-season, Jonathan is looking for a more stable shaft in the irons to limit the right side, as well as different iron heads to increase launch, spin and height.

the BEST golf content on all of youtube... these guys should be famous.

That's it I'm moving to Toronto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@parnopsiripornpak428]

Oh how I feel so gutted for being on the opposite side of the globe from you guys. You guys are the absolute best when it comes to fitting and especially when you explain all the details to the point where everyone can easily understand. Great video guys.

[@Moishe555]

Your name is fantastic!

[@fit2yougolf926]

Great video, and thanks to Jonathan's volunteering to participate. I'm always interested to see how golfers respond to a weight change after working on their swing. It (and other fitting parameters of course) can really compliment the changes. Also so great that you give Larry a shout-out. I enjoy his contact a lot and have applied some of this teaching into my own swing. Dave

[@shanestuart2264]

Hi guys loved watching this fitting its roughly where i sit swing speed wise and handicap i am booked in on may 21 and 22 coming from new zealand cant wait keep up the good work see you guys soon Shane

[@mangoman2148]

Jonathan's improvement should be an inspiration to golfers in his age bracket. A few grey hairs on top doesn't stop you from gaining swing speed!

I’m going to be making a switch in my irons in September. I am demoing what I am interested in now, because I don’t like the idea of trying something once and spending thousands of dollars. I was blown away by how quick you knew Srixons would work.

[@jl331792]

Love your content! The most in depth and useful information out there! I love how you two break down every detail and explain things so us less knowledgeable golfers can learn! Thank you so much!

[@legend9018]

Had almost the exact same experience at my recent iron fitting. Coming off JPX 919 Hot Metal with KBS Tour 90S shafts and into Z585 with True Temper DG 120S. Actually had the opposite problem with launching and spinning too high. Could not believe that going heavier with the shaft and into the Srixon head gave me more distance and better dispersion. Unreal what a good fitter can do for you.

[@feliciano1358]

I love the lefty action!!! You guys are amazing great job.

[@nicholasdalton5678]

Always great stuff from TXG but I hope Matt and Ian both will continue to test products along with some knew testers, and I know I'm not aligned with the bigger part of the audience, but my swing speed relates more to their games and I appreciate being able to see some really good players test equipment and also teach others about various aspects of golf from their points of view.

[@swardmusic]

I went down from the nippon 120s in my srixon fitting to the 105s so i could feel the clubhead weight MORE in my swing. Much better for me 👍🏻 Was minting them then we tried s300 shafts, i immediately topped 2 in a row ha! Mad how much it makes a difference

[@carlosb8614]

Glad to see Srixon get some love

[@goldengate8287]

Kudos to Jonathan for bringing the heat and not holding back during his fitting ... I can see his game notching up even better over time if he can provide a little more subtle control over his swing effort ... I noticed when he aggressively swing his head tends to lunge forward prematurely ...

[@mikecook8059]

Great fitting!! The learning curve continues!!!!

[@openminded1923]

The lesson of this video is that you shouldnt give up trying to get better even if youre not 25 anymore. Going from 81 to 86 in ss is a lot in my book.

[@joshdavis2195]

I had those same stiff flex Nippon Pro 850s in a set of AP1s after I was fitted into them early last year. Went for another fitting later in the year and put then AP1s on the frequency tester. They were testing at a 2.7 on the Rifle scale which is in the ladies flex border line junior flex range. The flex written the shaft really is relative to the actual shaft.

I was having the same issue. Was fit into a lighter shaft for a higher ball flight. Would get quick in transition and hook it. Demo’d S300 AMT and honestly was hitting longer and higher with the same head.

[@Dillinger251]

It's weird how used to seeing left handed swings I've gotten in the last few months watching this channel. Rarely see it in the UK.

[@jeffbrown7514]

Quite common in Canada. A lot of Hockey players play left which translates to lefty golfers

[@stuboy13]

Yeah. Got used to looking at what seems like a mirror image. Well. Except he's much better ha. Even lefty mates swing right handed here in UK

[@martinredgrave4767]

Another great video guys. Does anyone in Canada play right handed?

[@myunghs]

LOL. Was just about to ask the same. Either that or Matty's super duper uber mega fabulous swing have attracted all the lefties in the world to the channel...

[@rayjd1650]

I think it has to do with playing hockey first. You play with your dominant hand at the top of the stick to be able to control it with one hand. I'm a lefty and play hockey with a right hand curve.

[@martinredgrave4767]

That makes sense. The irony is I am a lefty - and play golf right handed.

[@billcochrane9774]

My standing quip when wintering in SC is that I come from Canada. It’s legal to play golf left handed in Canada. But perhaps the right question is why so few LH golfers in the US? There are many LH batters in baseball

[@bryanhylok9961]

Bill Cochrane was told by guy who runs golf shop in Canada the hockey thing is so true and here in us alot less lefties like myself

[@brendonharipersad4513]

Awesome video Ian and Matt! learnt alot!

[@martint8017]

Great video and well done to Jonathan on his improvement, motivational to get out and keep trying to improve the swing. Ps wish I could have lessons with Larry!! 💪🏌️⛳

[@ToddRichmond]

interesting to see shaft weight impact and how players either adapt their tempo or instead want a different shaft. Seems that is a consistent quandry for the fitter - fit the swing or nudge the swing in a certain direction.

[@subwaytm]

You guys should get Larry in for a fitting! It would be interesting to see you fit someone who really understands their swing.

[@nvr2old700]

Nice! Confused now though as I love my irons but do think I need a shaft update.

[@anthonytodd5308]

?could you have shaft changed/flattened the 790's for same improvement?

[@ChrisC-wz9ep]

Ian, great video. I noticed you mentioned something in regard to the V-sole. From your remark, I'm assuming it benefits the player with the tendency to hit a fat shot rather than the thin one. Can the V-sole hurt the player with the tendency to hit a thin shot? Thanks.

[@logankelch4869]

[@davidlieux2558]

been waiting for this video

[@Dan-nh8nu]

Great video Guys, Interesting, My swing speed is faster than Jonathan but the ball speed is 116mph max, so there's 10mph in the tank if I get the contact better, much food for thought.

[@danjones702]

I have a equipment question. I typically score between a 95 and a 99. I recently went to a fitter that told me my clubs are an inch to short for me. they also said my regular flex shafts can't handle my 80 mph swing speed. would upgrading my equipment to fit me better help mower my scores. side not current clubs 7 iron goes 145ish. 7 iron of test club stiff shaft went 170ish.

how would you compare the AMT to the elevate shaft? Isn't the AMT supposed to help launch in long irons?

With his speed and the center face contact, why didn’t you all try the 785s?

[@BVIGrockle]

Uncanny how similar Jonathan's fit was to mine last week. I had low launch with my Z745 (12.9 degrees with 6I) ended up with Z forged but gained 3 degrees of loft (Oban CT 115 shaft), 6 yards carry, better control (less went left) and slight increase in ball speed (122.6 to 123.9).

[@mivanows]

Everyone knows what is the best angle, speed, etc... but no one knows how to adapt the club to my swing... I am trying to buy new clubs for about a year and could not find the right fitting professional... how a PGA Tour Player is fitted - that's what I am looking for.

[@kourt2469]

Went to my first ever club fitting yesterday here in Utah at golf tec (my wife bought me a fitting for my b day) it was the worst experience ever. All I wanted was a gapping session for my clubs mainly irons. On the phone the kid said they could do that. When I got there after driving 2 hours cause it’s the closest available option the “master fitter of 20 years” told me he can’t do a gapping session? He said he can check the lofts on their bending machine but wouldn’t let me hit them on the gc 2?? He said the gapping session is pointless if your clubs are at the manufactures specs. Since my wife already paid and couldn’t get a refund I decided to just do a driver fitting. But I think his main goal was just to sell me a Callaway epic. I liked it but wasn’t about to drop $500 for a driver. I was hitting my ping g400 345 carry (which seems wrong) at 122 mph club head. But if anyone wants to go to golftec just don’t. Wish there was a good option for me but seems like I don’t have any good fitters close.

Is this the Elevate Tour 117g?

[@russellfothergill9082]

Confused as to why with same strike point and clubhead speed you would get such difference on efficiency. Assume spin loft is pretty much the same as angle of attack and dynamic loft not changing that much. Can you shed more light Ian?

@@canefan17 was fitted again with not demands. Resulted in the 785 with the same shaft (KBS C Taper 120). Same lie angle too. Just recently bought a set of New Level 902 with same specs. Great clubs. Feel nice, look nice. Maybe 2 yards shorter vs the Srixon 785. This I think is due to CG and higher launch.
