    Weight is even more important than flex not to mention shaft profile. Consider your timing and the weight of the shaft 1st.

    A tiny bit of solvent helps it slide on better. I find that over time the grips can twist a bit which isn't great when you have grips with alignment lines. I'm going to try a strip of double-sided tape at the butt end next to see if it help keep it in place and stop it twisting over time. Have seen others suggest using masking tape and strong hairspray to help against twisting as well. This method though makes it very easy and able to swap grips easier e.g. maybe you want different grips in summer and winter.

    Skip the first 2-minutes of this video. The title tells you the content of the video. Don’t waste your time with the opening. With his swing speed, the loft of his driver is not his friend. Based on his preference, perhaps a low spin shaft in regular flex with a bit more loft in the driver, might improve his numbers significantly.

  • @thebackyardgolfer7010
    @thebackyardgolfer70106 күн бұрын

    the problem with increasing loft is that you start to close the club face and this would cause slices, it would be better to buy a 12 degree driver where the face is squared at 12 degrees

After years of golfing I went down a flex on my 4,3 irons as well. That fixed getting the correct distance and hard fade and kept all my other irons perfect in dispersion.

Been playing since 1989, I’m 69 and still 13 handicap with a driver that goes around 240 yards more or less in the middle of the fairway. Therefore it would be a hudge mistake to try to change my swing and take the risk to destroy everything. I played with this Hackmotion because it was a gift. I still believe that’s is a very nice tool but most of amateurs should use it with their pro and not alone.
