Riggs that swing at the end makes me happy.. way to always help trottie!! Big fan

[@matinsalali713]

Maybe this is my experience in the UK, but not many fitters put this much energy and enthusiasm in their fitting process. Often its a tick box for the numbers and the closest wins, but there's so much to be said about the confidence you get, the alignment help, the insight into your swing path that just don't get communicated well enough. They want you out the door with your pockets empty asap. I wish everyone put this much love into their fitting process as you do Trottie

[@bobjoye4195]

Trottie😊 if you ever make it up to Michigan, I’d love a lesson

[@Boss_hogg_golf]

Every driver fitting is simply teaching players to square or close their stance while convincing them it’s the $600 new driver that is adding yards.

[@ryanheisler7139]

Trottie, could you do a deeper dive on the spinnier ball providing more stabilization to the ball flight (including the misses)? Most of the other ball folks seem to insist that a lower spin ball will help in that scenario. But based on some of the results here I might be inclined to agree with your proposition...

[@trottiegolf]

I just like to see the right spin numbers & always fit a little more spin off the tee if someone struggles with accuracy BUT that said you've got a window so I'll always keep it in my parameters

[@GP-tt2te]

Riggs doesn't need a fitting. He needs a complete swing reconstruction first. That's not how the body's supposed to move.

[@nicolasluciano9685]

[@roberttaylor1801]

A 4 whs handicap rating is a base handicap. It is all about the slope rating and for the better players the sss comes into play. The course where i am a member has a yellow slope of 135 off the back tees its 137. Off the whites a whs 4 handicap gets probably 3/4 extra shots so no longer a 4 now an 7/8. Friend of mine has a whs of 2.3, his course is 139 but with an sss of 70. A pro would hope to score 2 under. Suppose its relative, now a whs of 4 is not the old 4 handicap

[@LeszzK]

There is only two things wrong with Riggs swing if you actually watch it in videos. In this video he is swinging it perfectly. He is barely reaising it off of the ground and swinging smoothly.

But he doesnt listen to me the golf expert

[@spectre205]

Good video, but it's such an anachronism for fitters to speak as if a golf ball (or any sphere) was able to spin in two directions at the same time. There is no "backspin and sidespin" as separate values. And it's not even useful to think that way. There's a spin number, and a spin axis. If a player is already spinning the ball enough to keep it on a stable trajectory, and their spin axis is causing deviation to right or left, adding spin will increase those forces and increase L/R dispersion. You can't somehow magically add ONLY backspin and make it go straighter. On the other hand if the golfer's spin axis is within proper L/R variance (more vertically oriented) the yes adding more total spin will tighten up trajectory and reduce variance in dispersion.
