Pro vs Amateur Stock Yardages w/ GM Golf (The Ultimate Comparison)

[@brysondechambeau]

How do your stock yardages compare to ours? 👀

[@mathitis93]

I'm not consistent enough to have stock yardages lol

[@erikbjore]

few yards behind garret, but getting there!!!

[@brodypilcher3643]

I’m def way off Bryson and still pretty short on garrets probably 15 yards off him

[@206_golf]

i got you by 10 yards each club i think

[@laogx4026]

I’m glad I now have a new screenshot for comparison and goal setting. Would be great to know your 1 rep max on squat/bench/curl/overhead press and vertical jump too so we can have a benchmark to work towards!!! 61/100y,57/110y,53/125y,49/135y,Pw/150y,9/160y,8/175y,7/185y, 6/200y,7w/225y carry and next total (yt) 5w/250yt, 3w/280yt, D/280y carry (300-320 total) 115mph swing speed around 170mph ball speed I have one length irons and I swing single plane, 10hc and climbing once I can control shots from 180y and out. Bryson, when are you going to make a set of golf clubs??? Enough bespoke and make your own BAD edition with cobra 🐍 think of all of us one length SPS’s out here looking for the best one length gear.. Cobra is still the best in the market for one lengths, although good job with stock pings, but they need your input.. we fans/amateurs want to play what you play

[@TheFoulObelisk]

i don't think people understand the level of consistency players like Bryson operate at. when he hits a ball and thinks something is wrong with his club, he's FOR SURE right.

[@BexTDG]

Reminds me when Steph Curry dribbled that basketball on the court and found a dead spot. Crazy awareness, truly masters of their craft.

[@isambo400]

Bryson you aren’t exactly a standard pro golfer 😂

[@heberanderson]

Haha exactly. There’s obviously a skill gap between your touring pro and amateur. But when it comes to distance, Bryson doesn’t accurately represent your average touring pros stock yardages.

[@felobo33]

True, but even less is Garret a standard amateur, he’s longer with every club than 85% of pros

[@LikeCheckSaver]

Um he is a pro?

[@felobo33]

@@LikeCheckSaver no, but my point is that the difference between the standard amateur and garret is much bigger than the standard pro and Bryson. How many amateurs hit a 7 iron 200yds ?? Not even many pros do it

Freddy Couples once said "I hit my 6 iron as far as Calvin Peete hits his 5 wood. But he hits his 5 wood straighter than I hit my 6 iron".

[@boarder55535]

Shot under 80 for the first time last week. I have learned so much watching you guys. Got my driver distance near 300 and improved my 7 iron to 185

[@thoyo]

Let's gooo!

[@marudebaka6041]

I broke 80 five times in the past 16 rounds and my best drive is about 240 to maybe 250. My 7-iron only goes about 142. Disclaimer: I'll be 65 years old tomorrow and I obviously don't play the back tees; the courses I play are fairly short, but tricky. Last week I hit 7 greens on the back 9. My putting is also good. The game isn't all about distance.

Just like my 7 iron which is 170 +/- 45yrds.

Pfff...got them both beat. Just the other day I hit my 60 degree 165 yards. Nearly took out a house behind the green that had NO BUSINESS being in play.

Its crazy because Garrett has numbers close to and above tour pros. But the consistency is the biggest factor. Which is why bryson is so good. Not to mention those crazy distances he can achieve. Its wild asf

[@grantriley160]

Garrett is way above tour average yardages bro😭

[@bsx132]

@@grantriley160 Those aren't actual yardages... He's not carrying a 3 wood 310+ yards... You really think he's hitting it as far if not farther than prime Tiger / Rory hit their driver? His 3 wood might actually carry 250 at the most.

[@nickj1663]

Full Swing has a loooong way to go before it gets close to Foresight and Trackman.

[@nich576]

Agreed, those numbers are way off.

[@CAM-hc8ip]

I really hope people aren't comparing these numbers to their own. I swing a driver at almost 130 mph/180s ball speed and I can 100% guarantee these numbers are inflated. Bryson was joking about it during the video, but that's why you only trust launch monitors like GC Quad that sit right next to the ball to provide you wiht accurate information.

[@ssSHANEOoo]

You need to get that smash factor up, ypu could be around 195 ball speed with 130 clubhead speed

[@Eastmaniac]

​​@@CAM-hc8ipyeah 130 mph ch speed, you should be carrying 310+. Even when I really get a hold of one at about 114 mph it gets 275-280 carry. (My usual swing speed is only about 102-103 on the course, with about a 250-255 carry)

[@CAM-hc8ip]

​@@Eastmaniac ​ @ssSHANEOoo *180's ball speed - I should have been more specific. A controlled/aggressive swing is around 125 mph clean head speed, 185 ball speed, and 325 yd carry. Seeing as I'm taller than Bryson at 6'3" and 28 years old, at the tier just below his swing speed I can promise everyone that the machine is miscalculating carry distances. What happens at high swing speeds is the ball tends to slip off the club face and spin like crazy. If I'm not careful with technique and ball selection, I can easily spin a 7 iron (34 deg) @ 100 mph club head speed well over 8,000 rpm that just sky rockets into the air. Their machine isn't accounting for the spin being detrimental and is instead just converting it into extra distance, which only happens with a tail wind in real life. So everyone knows what's actually attainable, my carry yardages are right at right at 15 yd gaping with 4 deg separation: 58 (L) - 100 yd 54 (S) - 115 yd 50 (G) - 130 yd 46 (P) - 145 yd 42 (9i) - 160 yd 38 (8i) - 175 yd 34 (7i) - 190 yd 30 (6i) - 205 yd 26 (5i) - 220 yd 22 (4i) - 235 yd 18 (5W) - 250 to 260 yd 14 (3W) - 265 to 275 yd 7.25 (D) - 300 to 325 yd

Bryson is using stronger lofted irons which is what I use when he mentioned that his p wedge loft is like a 9 iron and so forth. A lot of people would benefit from this as you would hit shorter shots into greens more often and hit your irons at least a club further. We can all use more distance anyway we can get it.

[@ben1ben2ben1]

"We can all use more distance anyway we can get it" Most regular people. but does it benefit Bryson? He struggles from 140 in because his gaping is so messed up from the strong lofts. There is a reason Bryson is the only elite golfer in the world to use crazy strong lofts. Elite players usually want good gaping, not more distance with their irons

Yeah we’re approaching the point where “numbers” stamped on clubs are pointless.

Curious to know, would you say this sim is giving you unusually high ball speeds and that's what's causing the yardages to be a bit juiced? Considering the irons are giving out driver like smash factors, almost 170 ball speed on 6i etc seems a bit high no?

[@nomorenonsense]

I have used many different simulators and launch monitors and my guess is they have the elevation setting wrong. Going from sea level to say Denver Colorado can make a pw fly 30 yards further. It's what many golf retail shops use to give people the misconception they are driving the ball further.

[@blobbilly]

@@nomorenonsense yeah I get that, but my point is the ball speeds seem very high. Bryson's 9i at 152 ball speed and 1,46 smash, Garret's 7 iron at 142 with a 1.46 smash... Tour average for a 7 iron is 1.33 smash, john rahm's 7 iron is like mid 130s ball speed with a higher swing speed.

[@cichlidman09]

Loft vs loft isnt as far off as it may seem. Bryson basically a club ahead starting at gap.

[@mattbrown6392]

I agree loft is loft, but the best players in the world like him have to take into account how the flight/spin/ and reaction when it lands. Brysons PW will fly as high, spin, and react on a green just like a PW that’s a higher loft for someone like Cantlay. Bryson trains to hit the ball farther with the drivers and woods to get advantages, the other clubs he’s having to “re-loft” so they can fly, spin, and react on greens like standard golf clubs are supposed to. He swings that fast. For context, if all of your clubs were just renamed 1 less club “says 9i but is a actual PW” and you went to get fitted, the fitter would say “your 9-iron has way too much spin and you’re flying it way too high, then you’d counteract that with de-lofting the clubs, or putting a shaft in that is heavy enough to slow down the speed. In Brysons case he is an order of magnitude of about 1 club faster than the golf shafts that the speeds only made for pro players use. So they can’t help him get the spin and height correct with standard shafts (that’s my opinion) so he uses heavy graphite shafts and de lofts the clubs so he can hit and hold greens correctly. Not to mention he has a top 5 in the world short game. My point is don’t just think, oh I’d hit shots exactly like Bryson if I used his clubs… lol

@@mattbrown6392 bryson isn't that much faster than most tour pros who play regular lofted irons. His science bag is because he does hit it hard but also because his wedges are the length of a 7 iron. His one length crap seems to create way more of a headache to just hit a regular shot that a regular length and lofted club does already even at his speed. Bryson just needs to call the clubs what they are and not say my nine is your 8 junk

[@mattbrown6392]

@@cichlidman09 that’s one way to look at it I guess. He’s technically quite a bit faster than other tour players when it comes to distance off the tee… so that should translate a good bit to other clubs for gapping distances. Also the technique he uses with the 1 length clubs which you refer to as a “junk” excuse has won the guy 10s of millions literally by playing golf with that technique. There’s more than 1 way to win for sure. But if you hate it so much, you should go compete and beat him, then tell him why it’s junk.

@@mattbrown6392 my only point is he is comparing yardages to Garrett is not apples to apples. Especially as it was mainly as a look at how awesome I am compared to this regular human when in all reality if they both hit Garrett's clubs it wouldn't be so drastically different. Can also think his one length stuff is junk and unnecessary and know he's an all time pro golfer.

@@cichlidman09 that’s the video they should have done lol. Both hit the same clubs and see what happens lol. Or both try to hit the other guys’ clubs too. That would clear up a few things. Hey your opinion is what it is. I won’t tell you one way or another. It would be dumb of him to go out of his way to use a style that wouldn’t help when golfers need to win to be relevant, but crazier things do happen with athletes.

[@stefanslatter8585]

Very entertaining to watch, but it feels more like a 'how far can we hit it' session as opposed to a gapping
