Grip and chicken wing are lot better since getting an actual lesson.

Can’t teach mile high tempo though.

Or maybe it’s just tremendous hand eye coordination. Had a hill and a bunker in front of the green and wanted to get the ball very high coming into the green. Because of my superior golf swing and overall natural athleticism, I can afford to move the ball up in my stance to help accomplish that.

Ball position within your stance is only static for players like you.

The PXG seems to have next level “club twirl” in your hands.


Honestly, I havent perfected the club twirl yet for this driver. It’s weighted a lot different at the head so it will take some getting use to. I’ve only got about 25 swings on the new driver.

Getting fitted for a new warm up routine might be the clutchest golf tip I’ve ever gotten. I’ve never had formal routine but I like the idea.

Serious question. What does the elevation gain you? I'm at sea level in Texas and get about 165 to 170 with my 8i. Just curious how that translates in elevation.


It’s probably a 10-15% distance gain. I don’t nuke my short irons. I try to take “soft/smooth swings” at those. It’s not till I get to my 4 iron that people really realized just how long I am off the tee.

At sea level my stock 8i is gonna be 175y. Stock Driver at sea level is about 330y

Is that big white chevron on top of the driver distracting ?

Surprised you don't have shot tracer on your videos by now.


I’ve tried the best shot tracer app and I wasn’t impressed. It’s very gimmicky. Will probably never implement this unless they work on the technology.

Screw it. I'm a 15 handicap, low round is 82, only my third summer playing the game, I know my swing is shitty. White belt got lost by the airline.


Great swing Baw. Beautiful course too. Would scramble with you any day.

No. I actually like the way it looks a lot when addressing the golf ball. It fits the eye very well.

MHD, You have a great swing and if I was 30 years younger we could have fun bombing the longball.

Beautiful scenery , I wish that we had that in South Texas.

Hard to tell in the pictures, is it white or canvas color.

Could you post a pic of the crown please.

What shaft did you settle on ?

It’s like a grey canvas weave pattern.

I’ve been hitting the Mitsubishi Tensei CK series 70g FlexTX. I love it.

It also came with a Hazardous Smoke yellow but I haven’t hit it with that shaft yet.

It's a little busy but not as bad as I thought.

What would you compare that driver to as far as flight ?

It’s a 7.5 degree so it’s lower flight and more “penetrating” ball flight. Getting hella rollout.
