Yes, I know! I told you short game was coming and that is next week, I promise! It is already in the queue.

Meanwhile, we had a large demand for how to crush those woods and drivers with your lead hand being dominant, and I was only too happy to oblige. Enjoy!

    This didn’t say anything about playing with dominant lead hand at all. This was a basic draw fade video

      The external focus on clubhead path and orientation of cluface at impact (different for fade or draw)
      is cause of lead hand ahead of the clubhead. Its a result of the proper external focus.
      It has nothing to do with dominant lead hand. Hand dominance is determined by genetics.

      (BTW the only way for lead hand to stay ahead of the clubhead, ie pull the clubhead into impact is for golfer to get ahead of the ball, not stay behind it) How do you pull something by staying behind it?)

        Your “mind over matter” solution is total rubbish. Also your “pull” the clubhead is scientifically wrong…. and is rooted in 1960’s beliefs of the golf swing. You are so obsolete!!!

Mitsubishi Diamana WB: What you need to know + club build, on-course testing

Published

on

GolfWRX’s Resident Club Junkie, Brian Knudson, was naturally excited to get his hands on Mitsubishi’s new Diamana WB shaft.

In this video, BK gives you a brief overview of the new WB, builds up a driver, and takes it to the course for some testing.

With the rebirth of the iconic Whiteboard profile, Mitsubishi didn’t just re-issue a classic, but rather infused all the company’s latest tech into a new shaft, paying homage to the original with its quintessentially Hawaiian-inspired stylings. A summary of that impressive roster of technology, below.

  • 80-ton Dialead pitch fiber: Positioned in the handle, Dialead is designed to deliver greater ball speed via better energy transfer.
  • Aerospace-grade MR70 carbon fiber adds additional strength, and 46-ton fiber in angle plies in the tip section reduce torque for tighter shot dispersion.
  • Consistent Feel Design: Engineers target minimal variance across shafts (butt OD, weight, and balance point) to make the fitting process easier.
  • Xlink Tech Resin System: Engineers continue to reduce resin content and increase carbon fiber volume for greater feel without sacrificing strength and durability.
