I had to come in here and leave a comment. I will start at the beginning.. This year my handicap rose up to 19.2 and just wasnt enjoying myself all that much. I was in one of our member competitions in April and really struggled. I came home, told my wife I needed to make a change to get my mental strength tuned up. I found this video and I must have watched it 3-4 times...took notes, and using this base, I typed up and laminated my "Process" and I would put it in my back pocket, I pull it out and read my steps while going to my ball...and just focus on the process....and bingo...I started playing better and having more enjoyment on the course. fast forward to July, I've won a monthly medal and dropped my handicap to 14.2. THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! Brian (Lagos, Portugal)

Pretty weak list tbh…title should be labeled “Top Golf Club Brand specific bags”… there are countless cart bags not associated with golf club manufacturers that are better than these on this list
i have a g430 max and play at pleasington like you . the fairways do tend to send the ball right half due to slope etc. my bad shot was right. i know come more from the inside and my bad shot is left. by the way that was a massive drive on that hole especially of the whites
Hi Peter. Your right and I used drives on 1,3,11,13 and 17 to gather the data. Thanks for the comment and hope you are having a great year Course has been great this season
I really struggle to hit a draw with the G430 but can do it with the G425 Max. You can of course give that extra help with the move able weight if you wish which you can't with the 430 10k
You know, these are wonderful. So much of what you say is me. Walking with you through your process and listening to your comments is a massive help. Thanks, and I will keep watching them over and over.

So pretending you are not angry about your cr*p shots is going to work ? I am more like one who accepts my “anger” but only allows it to come to the surface within 10 secs after my shots, but I allow my good shots to linger for minutes
The aim is to stick to your process , routine and commit to the shot, if you do that then you just accept every shot good or bad but be content that you did everything to make that shot as good as it could be
Congratulations on reaching that many subscribers Craig 👏 I haven't been getting to watch much of your stuff this year and hope to get watching again, I especially enjoyed your 18 hole rounds as I'm on that path too
Cheers Patrick Yes not managed to get any 18 hole rounds done this year due to many factors. 1. been raining a lot, camera equipment isnt waterproof. 2. Electric trolley that housed camera has broken 3. been very busy with the day job this year and those videos took a huge amount of editing time
Hmm. Just got my new 10K and I agree on the right bias. I will start aiming it left to see if that does help. I normally play a draw, which can lead to other problems.
Well, technically you could have a right bias and the max, like most max sized clubs has a left bias, which worked to straighten you out. Maybe the 430 is actually neutral.
Its the only driver in the last 20 years that has had a consistent right bias for me. Its not destructive though as I said in the video but there non the less
We dont need medical insurance in the UK because our national health service is free for everyone however when we travel abroad on holiday we purchase travel insurance, im sure he has the very best cover..
Not sure that this is correct, I naturally slice but my 430 10K if anything tends left, overall the forgiveness is high, I suspect this problem you identify is down to swing. Interesting though.
@@stu7803 Really pleased it suits you 👍 If it was down to swing I think every driver with the same spec would have the same bias. I have only ever had this with this one driver but as I said it's a bias not a catastrophic right.
I'm in one now. My big miss is a big block right. With the PG3010K I also get a high spinny one out to the right. That one is probably me. Overall though: I agree 100% but the positives outweigh the negative.
these are amazing, thank you. I struggle with this more than you know. I can shoot 72 then turn around and shoot 85 next day. All because of emotion and losing control on the course. Will revert to tinkering on the course to try and fix my problem. It is really between my ears. thanks Can't wait to put into practice!!
I don't have a Ping. However, I would be curious to know how relative that is to the aim point. Are you aiming down the middle, and the ball just falls right? I think some context may help with that part.
Great video, switched from a fitted TSi2.. I usually draw the ball and started pushing on misses and fading regularly with the 10k with the ping CB shaft... just read that you used your fitted G425 shaft, so the shaft shouldn't be the issue... have only taken it out the the range and course once, will keep on swinging before deciding if it's for me.
Hi mate, great G430 10K review and just to tell you that this right bias can be cured or moved to the left by the replacement of a different shaft. I found the Ping Alta CB S and Ping Tour2 R and the basic Fujikura Ventus Blue 6R set in neutral position started the ball slightly left or to the centre and avoided fading for more than 90 percent of my drives. On my older G425 Max I had a tendency to favour the left side and cured it by using the flat hosel settings in neutral on my Ping Alta CB S or R shafts. All new Taylormade Q10 Max and Q10 LS clubs favour the right side too!
All worthy thoughts Richard. Super happy with my G425 Max right now. 1st time in the bag and finally had a good score this season hitting 12/14 fairways. Thanks for the comment
