What DRIVER LOFT Should You Use? 

Matt's 105 swing looks like a bunt down the first base line 🤣 what a beast!

Super happy with my current non-fitted driver, but this makes me want to do a fitting 😂

Love the way that Matt can manipulate his swing to mirror different delivery criteria. Fantastic to see. 👍

I got fitted for a driver (for the first time) and they switched me from the 9 degree I’ve always used to a 11.75. Got my carry to 290. Highly recommend getting fit for your swing

This maybe the most informative video TXG have ever done. How good must it be for Ian “ Matty can you make this swing with these numbers “ Matty “ there you go “

I wish I had the means to come see this crew for a fitting!! Easily some of the most knowledgeable and eloquent chaps out there

This was one of the most informative videos I’ve ever seen on club fitting! Fabulous guys!

I have needed this video for years but never knew! Not only for my own game but I love learning things like thing and how clubs work

This is by far one of the top 3 videos TXG boys have ever done. Information to understand the physics behind the scenarios to ultimately help the DIY tinkering golfer try to figure something out. Love it.

Undoubtedly, one of your most informative videos...and that is saying something because I always learn from you gentlemen! Thank you! 🏌🏽‍♂️⛳️❤️

Hands down the best channel for information about club fitting and explaining the effect of delivery/launch conditions. Simply awesome!

That first shot literally my numbers. Matty can be one of us after all. ❤️ What a great video. I had a fitting at TM the other day and it was amazing to see first hand.

I really enjoy these type of informational videos. Like most 30 somethings, I got into golf long before launch monitors were around. Learning the how and why behind the data is so huge, thanks so much guys!

This is awesome! Thank you! I have a shallow swing and have overcome some of this by varying tee height, seeing a swing coach and going up heaps in loft on the same club head. This video just nailed home how important it is to get fitted - so that I have to make less adjustments to get the club to work for me.

Excellent content as always. My son is a “social” player and we have been working on getting his drive more consistent. This definitely helps! Thanks guys!!

This and the one you put out 3 years ago on driver loft are a post-graduate course in club fitting. Fantastic stuff. Thanks ever so much.

I like these kinds of videos a lot more than club review type videos. This video really illustrates the value of a fitting. After my experience with a club fitting I’m amazed at the results

As a fitter, this is perfect! Always improving and learning more information! Thank you!

Best TXG video of all time in my opinion. Incredible content.

This makes perfect sense for my current situation, and never would I have thought it was my dynamic loft that was causing my drives to go so high. I’ve adjusted tee height/ball position lately thinking I was hitting up too much on the ball when everything you’ve said points to me coming in too steep. Wow. Golf is a fickle b****. Learn something knew every time I watch your videos. Good stuff.

Even out of focus, Ian is sharp AF.

Best golf RU-vid channel!

Great video. All fitters need to watch this!

Very good and informative video. Amazed still by Matt’s ability to “manufacture” any desired condition at will... makes me wish I was closer to go through a set of lessons that probably would result in a better fitting than what I have received. Great stuff! 👍👍

One of the best videos yet. Obviously the message is to get fit, however this information will help educate the consumer on what questions to ask during the fitting. Understanding why a fitter may or may not be recommending something helps us take control of the fitting process since there's only 1 Ian and we can't all go see him.

Love the Hollywood soft focus filter Ian , v pretty

Wow - one of the best golf videos ever. Thanks guys.

3:50 "that is a picture PAREFECT way" wicked accent you got there!

Great overview, the 1st example was me. I recently got fit and the fitting was worth it alone to get info on my swing and AOA. I picked up nearly 40 yards once all was said and done.

Wasn’t really interested in watching and then I watched it twice. One of your best content filled fitting explanations. Matty the robot has been on fire since his return. Keep up the great work.

It's amazing how much fantastic information is being given out of this channel. It's a golf PhD. For Free!

One of the best TXG videos to date.

Definitely found this one very informative. I struggle with high launch mid to high spin. Generally 16-18° launch and around 2500-300rpm spin. SS is around the 105 mark and I'm able to get the ball out to 300 yards if I get my numbers in the right spot but not nearly as much as I would like.

Really enjoyed, I see some of my stuff in there. Love seeing this kind of stuff. With all the available equipment to build something, which can make buying confusing, this kind of info becomes imperative when buying. Thanks

This is SO GOOD. Love the way you explained the info in this one. Great vid.

Great video! Appreciate the insight. Reinforces need to get fit not just with irons but also with driver.

Such an important video for the average golfer. I see so many people with plenty of clubhead speed but lose so much distance because spin is too high or low. Will have to share this one for sure

Really shows how a quality fitting can drastically make a difference in someone's game. While user input is the overriding factor, a quality fit can maximize the potential output. Great stuff as always.

Great content and explanation of the theory. Easy to see how what a golfer thinks it happening could be the opposite and why when they try to do more(e.g. hit up on the ball/higher angle of attack) makes their problem worse not better. Excellent episode

Absolutely brilliant guys....I can now understand why a higher loft for me works better with the dynamic loft I'm delivering, but more importantly, how I'm delivering that dynamic loft...I'm definitely player 2 in this vid...Thanks guys, awesome video.

This was like me choosing a tune on a jukebox - I have a driver fitting tomorrow morning! Superbly informative and simply explained. 👍🏻

Truer words were never spoke. Built a garage sim this winter & went from around 2 down AOA to 5 up. Spin went from avg 3500 to a healthier 2600. Took a lot of work to get the pull-hook straightened out during the swing change but from Dec to May I've picked up an easy 20-30 yrds carry. Playing TS3 in Graphite Design MAD 65 at 10.5 and considering the Callaway Max LS at 9.0. Honestly COULDN'T have done it without your videos. Thank you guys so, so much.

Great video highlighting how different driver heads can be between companies even different between heads from the same company. For example I was testing my Sim Max and it appears to be more similar to the Sim 2.0 in spin profile whereas the original Sim driver was incredibly low spin for me. To TXGs point you can't even buy next years head with the same loft and model and always get similar results.

This explained so much to me. Thanks. I have always struggled with driver. Until the call away rep actually dialed me down to 9.5 and moved weight to help me close the club. The opposite of what I kept trying. So much great information. Boo Yaa

Great content as always boys. Also, solid save with the masked Gaussian blur to hide fuzzy Ian. Love the golf/production game of the crew. Keep it rolling!

I am definitely the 2nd golfer that hits up a lot with little to no spin and massive 2-way misses: either a hooked dive bomb that runs or a big spinny slice. Obviously, lessons are needed, but I am also looking forward to my virtual fit to figure out what pieces I need to get things right. Great video as always gentlemen

This video was so easy to digest.

Videos are a different vibe with Matt in em 👍🏼 definitely for the better!

This is so good. Well done boys! This is gonna help me in my game a lot with creating proper loft!

Good stuff here. I was fit earlier this year and discovered that I am a poster child for golfer #2. Hit up on the ball, but struggle getting enough spin, and the misses were exactly what Matt hit: low spin hooky balls that fell out of the sky (TM SIM). Was fit into a PING G425 Max and got better spin numbers (2,100 average vs 1,600 average), increased my carry distance a ton, while also keeping the curve out of it.

Great video!! Shows again how important a good fitting is. Thanks guys. Learned so much since I subcribed to your channel 👍

A 1000 thanks - finally made me understand spin loft! Super helpful video as always.

Very informative thanks guys

A year later and I came back to this video, definitely player number 2. 65 ft, 1750 spin, quacking out of the air. Bumped the rogue st triple d from 9 to 10. And brought it up to 2250, 95 feet, 255 carry and 280 total. Smooth controlled swing creating great results. Appreciate you folks. Thought it was me til I saw this video and gave me the idea to bump up the loft

1:30 this is 100% me, exact everything. Love the channel guys. Thanks.

This is such an informative video and explanation. More like this, please!

What a knowledge fest this site is, absolutely brilliant, i was off +3 at my best (no longer play due to knees) but still tune in to this site daily to keep up with the latest tech. Ian and Matt, what a team, keep it up fellas, superb. I will add that i was fitted for various drivers in the early 2000s but the fitter had little idea of what he was doing tbh. So getting fit is great but you alos need to go armed with knowledge such as this

Great vid and to great to see you guys working so well together again.

Great video, had this exact issue . Went from ping 10.5 G410 Extra stiff to sim Accra stiff 9 degree and saw my spin drop from 3500 to 2100 on average. Dynamic loft dropped 1/2 degrees too. Be interested in what Sim 2 head would fit and keep that profile . Can’t wait for the fit .

absolutely excellent information! THANK YOU!

great video, and great edits! love these new style videos you guys are putting out

I loved this video more than some of the others as this applies heavily to my scenario with the driver. Im curious if this was a stiff flex or x-stiff? I know matt is a high swing speed player and typically plays an x-stiff. maybe for future videos you guys could include the shaft specs when doing these videos!

Its an amazing skill Matt has, to be able to change his delivery of the club at will... I would be on tour if I could that!

Loved the vid - very helpful and unfortunately I don't have a club fitting retailer around me - but I feel like I gained a little more confidence on how to direct myself in this situation.

Cheers guys going for my driver and fairway wood fitting today now I know what to keep an eye out for

Great video. Succinct, informative, consumable for the average golfer. It helps that Matty can throw out 105s on command.

This was so valuable for someone with a negative angle of attack with the driver. Can't wait for my virtual fit!

Awesome content as usual guys, really useful information. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have a 9° g410 turned down to 8° and struggle with the high ball. It doesn't balloon, just seems to launch high and float out there. Feel like I lose distance compared to my swing speed since it isn't penetrating flight. I'm almost glad you guys aren't in Texas....I'd be spending a fortune with you while slowly working towards a divorce. Lol. Great stuff TXG!

Great video, really well explained. Thank you!

Awesome information as usual. Keep up the great work mates!🍻

My Callaway Rogue hasn't been the straightest or forgiving for a while. New 75g shaft slightly helped, but still wasn't great. Set it to draw, still not great. Notched it up to 11.5, and blimey, it's now a fairway finder. Doesn't balloon in the air at all and it's like a different driver. Still want the Ping from Precision Golf though, so that's kept on order!

This is excellent stuff. It would be awesome to have you guys do a vid on which drivers have which tendencies that you've seen in your testing. Would be great clickbait as well as pertinent information for the viewers.

I'll have to rewatch this a couple times 🤔

Thanks that was the best explaining of fitting for.a driver...

This was all new to me - very helpful.

Outstanding video. Lots of great information

The Professor having fun! So good! 👍 These boys are good! #letONTplay #letusplay

I can hardly wait for my fitting .... This is why ! ....... Great vid as always guys !

Thanks Ian Matt, really interesting info as always

One of the best videos you ever made!

I have been waiting for this one! Time for an upgrade methinks...

Great vid guys 💯🏌🏿‍♂️ Very informative 👍🏽

Great stuff!!!

Great video! Learned a lot!

Great info boys

That was a real eye opener! thanks, So we need to to to a fitter with all the manufactures to try them all! That's not really how it works in the UK as most Pro shops seem to specialise in one or 2 .

Thanks guys. Great vlog. What about doing one of these for senior golfers with 80 to 90 swing speeds?

Brilliant video - I've looked at my old driver stats and my spin rate is 3500+ 😬 definitely getting fit for the next purchase!

this was a great video. Thank you.

This definately wants me to explore deeper into my Driver set up.

Great video, highly informative

It was very informative thanks

Fantastic guys, great content

Incredible explanation!

Great information!

Great video, thanks!

I’m the shallow swinger you depicted! I was hitting my Speed 9° vs Max LS 10.5° on GC Quad last night. Both drivers have the same head weight, APW in the center and I used the same shaft in each head. The Max LS turned out to be a more balanced driver for my +6° AOA and slightly high, slightly toe side contact. It never did the 1400 rpm dive bomb like Speed 9° did. For laughs, I put the Speed 10.5° demo head on my shaft, put in a heavier back weight to match the other drivers’ head weight and gave it a go. It was better but not as stable as Max LS 10.5°. End result wasn’t as dramatic as in the video however it was close.

That was amazing!

This is so informative
