Never saw the ball. He could have been hitting it anywhere, and I agree the 1 ideo gave no instructions HOW.

I think there were stingers before Tiger. They may have called them by different names but he certainly didn’t invent them.

This should have been renamed as “Min Woo Lee hitting stingers”. There was nothing about this video that showed “How to hit the stinger”.

By this point they should really rename it to hitting a “Tiger”….only guy that invented a new shot in recent memory….yeah yeah yeah, i know its just a knockdown or a punch shot….

BUT no one ever put speed behind it with the intent of hitting it 270 before him!

Come at me haters.

  I agree. All the guys using that shot are following Tiger’s style of play and course management. Tiger should get all the credit for the stinger.

Russell made a massive charge on the last 3 holes of the 2026 Charles Schwab Challenge this weekend to force a playoff with Eric Cole. 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. He mixes brand new with some very old clubs in order to play his best.

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

Published

GolfWRX Staff

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.
