    Why the negativity? I see value in this just from the demonstration of the clubface angel at the top being open vs closed (compared to the forearm angle) – and they are correct in how an open position at the top (due to wrist hinge that is more extended than flexed) promotes casting coming down (due to the pshycological fear of not being able to square the clubface enough with the pivot alone).

    What is interesting to me is, after studying Hogan videos for years, is that Mr. Hogan opened his clubface going to the top of his backswing on purpose, and then had the ability to close it (or bring it back to square) on the way down. This is monumentally difficult (at least for me).

    I am probably better off following their advice and just developing a backswing that gets the clubface square or closed at the top to begin with, so that the hands can just stay there in that position for transition and onward.

    As far as the drill goes, I think that has value just doing it slowly and clipping a tee (without a ball). After all, they say this is more about the feel of getting the arm, wrist, and clubface angles into the right positions – on the way up in the backswing – so as to get rid of the fear of needing to square the clubface via additional (and early) wrist flexion and uncocking on the way down.

    Call me gullible if you like. I’m going to work on this to get the feel of it, so that I can hopefully make an actual change to my backswing (as opposed to the “feel vs. real” illusion that my current drills seem to be stuck in). One of the things that Wayne Defrancesco has taught me is how difficult it is to actually make a change in my golfswing. We think we are capable of making changes on a dime (and we are sometimes) but they rarely “stick.”

    A redux, regurgitation, repeat explanation, and rediculous drill. Of course the gullible golfer will swallow this swill hook line and sinker.

Henley drained another putt on the first playoff hole to win his 6th PGA Tour event! While he is a Titleist staff member, his WITB is far from a simple blend of the latest gear.

Titleist GTS driver fitting: 10 handicap vs. +4 handicap

What happens when a 10 handicap and a +4 handicap go through a full driver fitting at one of the most advanced golf performance centers in the world? Brian Knudson and Andrew Von Lossow headed to the Titleist Performance Institute in Oceanside, California, to find out.

Both players go through a complete Titleist GTS driver fitting with the Titleist fitting team to see how swing speed, launch conditions, strike location, shaft profile, and head setup can completely change performance off the tee. Even though the golfers have very different games, the fitting process reveals just how important proper equipment can be for maximizing distance, tightening dispersion, and improving consistency.

You will see how Titleist fitters analyze every part of the driver setup including loft, weighting, shaft selection, and head model to build a driver specifically for each player’s swing. While the skill levels, club head speeds, and desired outcomes are different both players show how deep and versatile the new Titleist GTS driver lineup is.
