I got fitted at @silvermeregolfclub in Surrey for a full set. Here is a detailed insight of the process from Driver to Wedges. Since this took place back in April 2022 - my game has gone on to massively improve.
Clubs I selected:
1. Driver- Rogue ST MAX, Shaft - MITSUBISHI TENSEI AV BLUE 65 GRAPHITE Shaft
2. Fairway Wood - Rogue ST MAX, Shaft - MITSUBISHI TENSEI AV BLUE 75 GRAPHITE
3. Hybrid 4 - Taylormade Stealth, Shaft - FUJIKURA VENTUS RED 7
4. Irons - Taylormade P790 (6-A), Shaft - TRUE TEMPER DYNAMIC GOLD VSS 105
5. Wedges - PING Glide 4.0 - 54 & 58 Degree, Shaft - PING Z-Z115 WEDGE
6. Putter - Taylormade Spider GT

@wallstreetoneil Год назад
First time watching your channel - enjoyed the fitting. You basically got fit into perfect clubs in my opinion - those Callaway Max Woods were huge sellers this year, P790s are Taylormade's best selling irons by miles, those Ping Glide 4.0 wedges, with the very slightly wider soles and the hydro finish are a perfect choice. The only surprise for me watching was how much better you liked the timing of the TT 105gram shaft over the 120gram - I predicted watching you'd go 120 given your speed but everyone has a weight they like to swing. Great choices - and that Hybrid is money.
@MichaelBlanksonGolf
@MichaelBlanksonGolf Год назад
Thanks Paul for checking out the video. They have really been performing well for me since. I had the same understanding that I would need the heavier shaft but in the end, after all those swings, it just kept coming back to the 105’s. Maybe my swing is inconsistent and that’s what’s taken me down the 105 route. The hybrid - well, it’s just a ridiculous club. Love it. But I think that comes from the fact I used the burner hybrid for so long that, at address, it’s like looking down memory lane - but with a better shaft and greater tech. What clubs are you hitting? Thanks again 👊🏾

I went through the same thing with folks saying, “Have you tried the Vokey wedges? They feel so nice!!” Yes they do, no doubt about that. But I took a 56° and 60° TaylorMade MG TW out for a spin on the real turf practice area and I was blown away by the turf interaction and the feedback sensation from those two clubs. Even though I had always had a strong wedge game, It was incredible how actually dull the Vokey felt in comparison as almost TOO soft. With the consistent control and confidence in directing ball flight/landing attributes I had with these two Tiger Woods designed clubs, they went RIGHT into the bag immediately, lol. Using these along with the 54° TM MG I added to the wedge trio, it’s like throwing darts at the green. It really is amazing how much technology has been thrown into golf clubs to be such that you can go through a fitting and ended up with a combo of manufacturers that’s perfectly tailored to your swing profile. This elevated level of tech has definitely raised the enjoyment experience of the game to a whole new level. Great video my friend!! 👍🏻😎👍🏻
@MichaelBlanksonGolf
@MichaelBlanksonGolf Год назад
This is a brilliant comment. And I completely across. The key bit you mentioned was ‘turf interaction’ and that’s is really what I think it comes down to.

@Far2hip
@Far2hip Год назад
@@MichaelBlanksonGolf, totally agree with you there. The Vokey wedges are amazing and for the longest time I wouldn’t hit anything else. They are SO smooth feeling. Tried the Bettanardis and they were smooth as silk too, but they just didn’t offer any extra confidence. But when I was out in the real grass testing every good an crappy lie I could think of, the predictability of those Tiger wedges blew me away. Switched them to my gamers immediately, lol, and my short game has absolutely improved quite a bit, probably from the added confidence over the ball. 😎

@whiskeytangosierra6 Год назад
I've always wondered why I ended up with XS steel shafts despite my slower swing speed (am 70, not 40). Now at least some of it makes sense. Anyways, I hit my irons a LOT better with the heavier shafts, which leads to more confidence, that in turn leads to more distance where I am aimed. Practice, play, repeat. Enjoy your new clubs! Happy birthday and I hope you are still swinging and enjoying golf in 30 years. (I have yet to find a hybrid I like - every one of them just looks like an Ugly Stick to me. I carry a 9 wood instead.)
@MichaelBlanksonGolf
@MichaelBlanksonGolf Год назад
First things first - A Massive hats off to you for staying in the game. And from your response, you still have the love for it. Secondly, the heavier shafts are ideal for you - and the fact you’re getting the distance out of them is another huge plus. Thanks so much for watching, I will be uploading the unboxing very soon. I have rounds where I have used the new clubs on my RU-vid - feel free to check them out. Keep swinging - and I hope to be doing the same in the future too. 👊🏾🙏🏾

Great video. I got a full bag fitting at Silvermere 2years ago ( was in the same fitting bay you were in but with David (Scottish guy). Had a similar experience to yourself. Didn’t feel pressurised into buying and certain brand or clubs. I was even told that the driver I was using at the time (2018 Callaway Rogue) didn’t need replacing as nothing was out performing it. They even said I could pop back another time at no extra charge when the Titleist TSi3 was going to be released so I could try that out. Ended up with Titleist TSi3 driver, 3w, 3h. Mizuno MP20 HMB 4-PW Vokey Sm8 50,54,58 Oh and how good is the shop!! I was like a kid at Christmas in Toys R Us in there!!

@Alextway16 Год назад
If you have a fairly consistent swing club fittings are soooo essential. The right shaft is so important. I just had to reshaft all my irons and it’s night and day. It’s incredible but much the fitting helps the game. The technology is definitely different but I don’t think I’m makes that much different. Every persons swing is different and some clubs are just designed better for that type of swing.
@MichaelBlanksonGolf
@MichaelBlanksonGolf Год назад
Completely agree Alex. I really feel my game has benefited from this fitting. My swing might change as time goes on but not enough that it makes the fitting irrelevant. I would recommend it for sure. Great to hear your game is getting better with the new shafts. 👊🏾

Cheers Stephen. Yeah, it’s also a funny one how many people don’t have mixed golf bags. Not saying it’s bad, but most just like to stick to the brand rather than what’s best for their game.

@justinstephenson9360 Год назад
Always been a sucker for a good fitting video and the guys at Silvermere seemed to do a really good job, not pushing any particular club or brand. The only thing which might have improved the fitting would be to try different grip sizes to see what effect, if any, that would have. As for the actual selection of clubs, every golfer is different but that seems a solid selection - P790s have been great for years
@MichaelBlanksonGolf
@MichaelBlanksonGolf Год назад
Hahahaha… Thanks for watching. The guys at Silvermere really were brilliant. And your point on the grips is SPOT ON. In fact I think had I tried clubs with the grips sizes I needed (midsize) maybe I would have gone for something different. Nevertheless the experience was TOP. And the clubs really have elevated my game. Hopefully in the future they will begin fitting for putters. 🤞🏾

@Ballina Shop what could work is to use several versions of the same shaft with different grip sizes to give an indication of likely effect. Alternatively when selection is made and iron set ready but ungripped try different grip sizes in the 7i and 8i.

Getting fit for a whole bag is awesome. My only concern is my swing deteriorating over the course of the fitting due to fatigue. I feel like a whole bag fitting should be over the course of a couple days. Thanks for sharing.
@MichaelBlanksonGolf
@MichaelBlanksonGolf Год назад
This is a brilliant point. And I do actually agree with you. However who is to say your swing doesn’t change in a months time? I think it’s also why a few people avoid fittings due to the fact their golf will game will not be consistent each time. Maybe a fitting should be done over a longer course of time.

I got fitted. Was between the p790s or the cobra forge Tec. P790s were great, but the feel of the cobras won out for me. Also the consistency of distance. The p790s had some fliers that went 10 yards or more beyond where I was expecting them. Cobra had less of that for me. I got heavy shafts too, 125s. I get high spin often, so I was fit for all low speed woods. Cobra 3 wood LS and a callaway triple diamond LS. The triple diamond surprised me, but I do decent with it. See shall see if I can keep it

There were a few moments where it looked like he was just trying to sell you the more expensive club. Your first shot with the T200 seemed poor and you said “can I just blame the club” in a joking way and he said you can because you’re swing doesn’t change between swings. If that were that case, you’d never hit a bad shot! That made me a bit frustrated with sort of confirming the stereotype I have for golf club fitters…
@MichaelBlanksonGolf
@MichaelBlanksonGolf Год назад
I get your point Trevor. And I can honestly say, before the fitting I had the same misconceptions. But for that club, it just wasn’t clicking. I didn’t share each and every shot with the T200 but as much as I tried, I could get the same feeling as I had with the Taylormade. You have to believe me when I say- I went in there making sure I didn’t get fooled, and in the end I feel that I got what I deserved. I was only going to accept spending the amount of money I did there once I got the feeling it was for my best interests. 👊🏾

( clubs got stolen out of my car) the 2nd by Dicks Sporting goods was a waste of money and time. GOOD LUCK WITH THE CLUBS. I will be watching.

To me vokey wedges seem hard of the face but that was some years ago

Yeah I felt the same when I was hitting them. Still amazing clubs. Don’t get me wrong, at one point I was close to just going for them based on what everyone else has said. In the end, I went for true feel for me. Maybe when my game gets a lot better they will become the wedges I’ll use.

100% agree…. It’s def not easy. But sometimes you can get some great fitters who can see the vision/direction of the individual.

I also feel you can be smart about it. A fitting doesn’t mean you have to purchase. You either go in there with a budget and try and work around that, or you take the info from the fitter and purchase 2nd hands clubs that fit…

Sorry for this comment but IMO should have saved £2500 and used it towards lessons. Looks like a case of expensive clubs, cheap swing. No fiiting is going to help the lack of backswing rotation or half swing - all arms and no legs or hips, more a "senior" swing. When your swing improves, the fitted clubs might not even suit your game. What did Jamie do regards loft, lie shaft length etc.? Prove me wrong, what's your current handicap Michael?
@MichaelBlanksonGolf
@MichaelBlanksonGolf Год назад
Paul, don’t be sorry at all. I didn’t put the video online for everyone to just love it. Not sure if you saw, but my objective is to reduce my handicap from 24 (when I started) to a single digit handicapper WITHOUT any lessons. All via RU-vid. That’s just my mission and what I want to prove to my audience and myself. I 100% agree lessons are the way forward, and would recommend that to anyone over spending that type of money on golf clubs. Now I play off 15 - and my handicap has reduced due to training (and not just the clubs). I hope this makes sense but in summary, this is my journey to be a good/great RU-vid golfer. 🤞🏾

Thanks Ricky. I felt that after watching so many fitting videos online, there just was not enough detail and most were people showcasing how good they were over anything. I wanted to have a video which was as transparent as possible hence the subtitle - ‘what they don’t tell you’… Thanks again for watching though. Really appreciate it 👊🏾

Ooooooh, now that what I like to hear… Are you looking to get one? Honestly, and of course it’s just preference, but after having the old Burner Hybrid for so long , looking down at the stealth hybrid felt like I was hitting the same club. But the performance is just something out of this world. Great to hear you loved it too… 👊🏾
