Cameron McCormick’s secret to a reliable 100-yard shot | The Index Experiment | The Golfer’s Journal 

Totally agree!

Maybe because it was 3 hours old when you commented guy

Loll

The problem is: there is so much out there that it’s actually hard to find the right answer.

This is along the same lines but I think even better: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-HKk4VNAK3po.html

Wow - Agreed, that was the best I've ever seen. A little hard to follow at first, but clear as day by the end.

@@steveconkkin9363 So good!

This isn't even scratching the surface, this is literally just figuring out what club goes 100 yards. After you do that, it's all down to the player and how much information they want to think about or forget😊

kswan2234...you may enjoy Faldo giving a college kid a lesson on Performance Golf. Good stuff.

Great question and I don't have the direct answer. Another way of thinking about it is the Pelz method, where you hone the 7:30, 9:00 and 10:30 swings (the position of your back arm on the clock face at maximum backswing) so they are absolutely repeatable. Then grab your wedges and systematically measure each one with each of the 3 swings (plus the full swing). I have 4 wedges so that gives me 4 x 4 known and repeatable distances. Made a huge difference to my handicap when I first did this. Fun to do and my son and I often head out with our wedges, a bucket of balls and the rangefinder to update our wedge gapping. Hope this is helpful! Mr Pelz's system says that a 7:30 swing should go 50% of full, 9:00 swing should be 75% of full, and 10:30 swing should go 90% of full. Cheers - Dave PS. This is all in the Short Game Bible by Pelz. 🙂

I like your system. Do you use one swing speed for all wedges? What is your swing speed and how do you know when you have good enough consistency to take it to the golf course? thanks

@@KenHollowayshow Yes. One swing speed. 90% of max. It's firm and controlled. I'll hit full buckets of just the 100 yard shot. It's not difficult to replicate. Same swing, 4 different clubs and 4 different yardages. It's very consistent and reliable for me. When I'm off, it's usually when I try to get 5-10 more yards out of it. I always come back to that 90% swing and everything falls into place again. Once I start swinging harder or softer than that stock shot is when I start going way long or short.

Genius. I'm always trying to adjust swing speed and swing length with different clubs. This has led to much frustration. I like your system. Makes total sense. Gonna do it. Thanks

@@tommytinajero2778 Dude, you have no idea how much this has changed my golf life. I've turned my greatest weakness into my strength. At the range, I no longer pound 7 irons, I hit full buckets of my 100 yard shot. It translates to the course. I now have 5-10 birdie putts within 15 feet each round. My next step is to learn to drain putts, which I cannot do for the life of me. So goes the journey. Good luck.

How is half swing 90%. Wtf

I was told as a rule of thumb, your launch angle should be around half the loft of your stated club e.g. 54 wedge = 27 degrees launch angle. This just applies to irons and wedges though

Half the loft

Official. Bag check max amount of clubs permitted

If it varies that much, you also have a contact issue. 190 is the dead middle of the face and 150 is nowhere near that. This is often amplified by the hollow irons (Titleist T200, TM P790, Mizuno pro 225, etc) which dead-center strike can give you a much longer distance.

@@hiddenbunny7205 that makes sense too, currently hitting JPX921 HM to your point. I wouldnt be surprised if its more than one thing.

One way could be to use street chalk (the one that the kids use) and paint around the ball. another method is to buy the quite expensive divot board. but I dont do either of these two, I hit foam balls in my garden, that way I can still see where my club bottoms out.

Just find a field and be willing to pick your own balls up 🤷🏻‍♂️ it’s what I’ve done, I’ve binned the range with the Matt’s, it’s false in regards to what you do on the course.

how much is the membership

LW is my 100 yard shot 😱

Well how much do you got? Lol

Glad I wasn’t the only one 😅

Put a spot above the top groove and try to hit the spot.

This guy coaches major PGA and LPGA winners, but the hackers are predictably correcting and criticizing.

If you don't have the ability to put 2 sticks down slightly larger than the width of a club head. You have much bigger issues. That is a really basic drill. If you hit the sticks your swinging inconsistently.

Use a rage finder
