WILSON FIT AI: The Future of Golf Club Fitting is Here!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ส.ค. 2024
- Join Luke as he spends time with the team at Wilson golf as they showcase their brand new Wilson Fit AI process. This revolutionary new golf club custom fitting technology allows Wilson to recommend the perfect golf clubs for you in just 5 golf shots and taking only 10 minutes! WOW!
This fast, innovative technology is AI powered and uses a sensor fitted onto the end of a golf club which captures 12,000 data points from each golf swing, which the Wilson Fit AI technology analyses, using their algorithm and machine learning capabilities to recommend the right setup for every golfer in 5 swings, all in a simple, intuitive package!
The benefits of introducing this technology into a golf club custom fitting is it gives the fitter a great starting point to work from, whilst getting a club in the hands of the golfer earlier in the fitting, giving more time for optimising the end result or even freeing up time to test more clubs!
Are you ready for the next big leap forward in golf club custom fitting? Watch this video and let me know what you think!

That is one very cool contraption Luke. Five swings and ten minutes and some happy golfer will be all set up. This will put more Wilson clubs into players' hands and grow their brand quickly. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Hi Petro! Spot on! By jumping ahead of the rest Wilson really do have a great chance to get clubs in peoples hands. I’ve spoken to a couple of fitters since about it and they’ve said they’ve used it for iron fittings to get to a baseline quicker (eg game improvement vs players distance irons and likely shaft weights and flex) for a customer and then try other heads after the Wilson so you’re guaranteeing they get the Wilson in their hand which maybe they wouldn’t otherwise! I know Ping have released something similar for Wedges recently so I’m sure in 1-2 years it’ll be a brand agnostic bit of kit for fitters but for now a great opportunity for Wilson to leverage some unique competitive advantage! 👍🏼
I have played Wilson irons ( nd a driver with the fat shaft ) and loved them and whenever I have updated my irons it have been a choice of either Mizuno and Wilson. Mizuno has a similar fitting where you use a club that measures your swing ( you do select the club head of your choice ) and it gives the haft options best suited for your swing. This year I will update my irons as it been 6 years since last time. Will it be the new Wilsons or Mizunos?
@andersdannstedt5825 love it Anders! I’ve currently got Mizuno irons but the more I test Wilson the more I could easily build a bag of them! Great clubs! Thanks for watching and sharing your own experiences! 👍🏼
This is a confident man. Everyone else that I've ever met who is 5'11" always say they're 6' 😂😂
That earned a sub from me. 😅
😂😂😂 Haha! The best reason I’ve heard for gaining a sub! I’ll 100% take it too! Thanks for watching and for making me laugh! All the best! 👍🏼
Somewhat similar to the Mizuno Shaft Optimizer, only with the added recommendation of the clubhead.
Hi Steven! For sure some similarities in it and you may have seen Ping have just released something similar for wedge fittings too! Thanks for watching! 👍🏼
Well done Luke very interesting tech in golf is now moving forward very quickly so much info now for golfers its crazy 🤯
Absolutely Pete! I think we can hear about how AI is helping with club design but it’s hard to bring that to life! When you get to see and play with tech like this and see how quick and good it was then it really does show it off to its fullest potential! Give it 1-2 years and I’m sure there’ll be a version of this for all clubs in the bag and all brands! 👍🏼
Interesting to finally see someone picking up the glove from Mizunos SwingDNA tool. Well done Wilson!. Just seems like a no-brainer to get more data into the fitting to allow for the customer to still be fresh when testing something very near to the best fit rather than "bumper-car-fitting". Thanks for making this available WTP. 👍
Hi Niels! I totally agree! Really cool piece of kit that should get the customer hitting new equipment close to optimal for them as early as possible in a fitting! Imagine this when it’s brand agnostic and presents the fitter with an option from all the brands your fitter offers! That would be awesome! Thanks for watching and for your comment! 👍🏼
Great information again Luke. I can see where this could be very helpful, especially for a new golfer. It would help get them in a set much more suited for them. Fantastic job.
Absolutely Jeff! I think it’s also a great tool for a fitter too as I think it gets them to a ‘good’ starting point to get new clubs into the customers hand quicker into the fit! It wouldn’t surprise me if lots of places use it in combination with a TrackMan or similar and then work off the recommendation, which even if they do that is great for Wilson as it gets their club in your hand first. All the best! 👍🏼
Great insight, Luke. Super interesting bit of tech. My experience from an open market fitting is you spend half of the time allotted just figuring out what manufacturer you should be playing, and that’s before you get into the head type, shaft and all the rest. After your recent test session I’m looking at Wilson, as I need that extra loft their clubs provide. Did the chap say they have something similar for their drivers?
Hi Steve! Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it! My understanding is that right now, it's just for irons but will come soon for the rest of the bag too so watch this space! To your point, I can see open market fitters using this tech. to help them get to the answer quicker for the customer, which will include starting with a Wilson head and then trying others from there. A win-win for Wilson as it'll get their product in more people's hands, promote their tech and fitters will get the benefit too of getting to answers quicker! 👍
Great vid.Well done Wilson and Luke.
Thanks Nick! Appreciate you watching and your kind comment! 👍🏼
Wilson are so underrated and I don't know why, got fitted last year shame this technology wasn't around as I ended up with a set of cobra's but the D9s were a very close 2nd , and I occasionally use a friend's D9 when on fairway and buggy way back on path and I have the wrong club in my hand.
Hi Paul! I agree, I think Cobra and Wilson are both underrated. Great clubs at great prices (relatively speaking). What Cobras are you gaming? Thanks for watching! 👍🏼
@@weekendtourpros cobra air x, not as delofted as a lot of brands these days including Wilson, but my game has improved a lot since I started gaming them, started out getting about 150 with my 7 now I'm confident from 165 although I use hybrids from 5 h down again cobra air x but have just fell in love with my new pxg gen 6 0311 #2 hybrid.
@paulhuk2748 love that Paul! Sounds like some really good gains too! Brilliant! I game a 5 hybrid too! So similar approaches to our bags it seems! 👍🏼
When I was fitted for irons the staff were not allowed to fit for Wilson clubs. Wilson only allowed their own fitters to come in by appointment. Maybe that is why so little Wilson clubs are fitted and sold.
Hi Keith! Thanks for sharing that experience! I wonder if that’s a regional or a historical thing? In my area, Wilson clubs are fitted by many local fitters and not Wilson staff… if there is inconsistency that wouldn’t be ideal and would back up your point! All the best! 👍🏼
Great video great kit possibly more detailed than the Mizuno system. Love Wilson but wish they had more stockists and fitting opportunities because they make great clubs but need to get out there and rebuild the brand.
Hi Sevesellors! Thanks for watching and for your comment! I definitely hear you and think Wilson are really trying that at the moment… 👍🏼
How things have moved on. Looks so simple. I wonder if they do this here in Thailand? Great video Luke.
It’s crazy isn’t it John! I’m sure it will be getting rolled out across Wilson fitters around the world in the future and my prediction is that before long a similar piece of kit will universally be available which each fitter can input all the club options they sell and then it’s brand agnostic! But for now, fair play to Wilson for leading the way! I think Ping have just launched similar type tech for wedge fittings too. So it’s definitely the future of fittings! 👍🏼
I did this last Tuesday getting my Dynapower clubs this week!
Amazing! How did you find it Larry? Was the initial recommendation close to what you ended up with? Thanks for watching! 👍🏼
@@weekendtourpros yes it was spot on 👍
Good stuff Luke! Thanks for
Hi Richard! Thanks for watching! 👍
Don't know that its that amazing. If you are only going to work with Wilson heads for an 11 handicap you really only have the Dynapower or Dynapower Forged. Perhaps the Staff CB. Couple of swings you already know he's on the fringe regular and stiff shaft. The app I believe recommended a uniflex (between R and S). A fitter would also have a good idea on weight of shaft based on ball flight etc.
Hi Andy! I hear you and get the points! My assessment is that this is v1.0 of this technology which is super new and I’m more thinking ahead to the future…
My prediction is that give it a couple of years there will be brand agnostic versions of this technology which only recommend the heads and shafts of the brands available at your fitting location, but based on fitters near me, that could be 50+ heads and 200+ shafts! So the ability to dial that down to 3-5 heads and 2-3 shafts quite quickly could be beneficial to customer and fitter and get relevant new product in the customers hands quickly. With the machine learning of the final decisions being fed back in, allowing the tech. over time to potentially getting that even more dialled in! It might also be able to recommend a golf ball that could help too or give advice on bag set up (e.g. playing longer irons or moving to hybrids at a certain point).
As we touched on this isn’t designed to replace the fitter and their expertise or remove how customers like looks or feels but more compliment it and I think in 2-3 years time this could be the standard! I might be wrong but I see that future!
Thanks for watching and for sharing your views! 👍🏼
Now, if they could just put together the equivalent club in the specced set (universal shaft tips, as many fitter can do), hand it to you and see how you perform with that spec, it would be perfect. That's the part that needs to be added, and that requires a fitting lab fully equipped with shafts and heads. Does Wilson have that capability?
Hi Boyd! Yes that’s exactly what would happen next! The idea is all fitters with access to this tech are Wilson approved and stock the full line of heads and shafts so you’d get your recommendation then they’d build that club and inside 10-15 mins you’re hitting it and fine tuning from there in the 45 mins you have left! As Dan touches on there’s the AI recommendation but the fitter still needs to work with you to ensure that’s the perfect recommendation as looks, feels, and nuances of delivery all play a part! Thanks for watching! 👍🏼
Dude Zepp was the original company. Then they got bought by Blast.
The problem with the tool is that it measures your stats as if your swing path was perfect.
I wouldn’t use Blast technology based on 5 shots.
Hi Mrfld! Thanks for watching and for your comment!
I think the key thing here is it’s designed to give a recommendation and not the final answer and the Blast sensor is providing the data but it’s the Wilson algorithm that’s taking that and analysing it and doing the machine learning based on how accurate the recommendation was vs the final result! 👍🏼
good fitting.
Hi Alan! Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it! 👍
I’m at the 3:33 mark of the video. Going to guess based off of the answers that the software recommends Dynapower forged!
13:57 I stand corrected. Cool technology. Cant wait to use it.
Hi Ja Autre! Thanks for watching! Tbf I think if I’d chosen that I wanted more control and workability it would have been Wilson DynaPower Forged! I’ve tested them and LOVE them! So I think my answers influenced it slightly! 👍🏼
does this work for drivers as well?
Hi Stephen! My understanding is that right now it’s just for irons as it’s only just been launched and is super new tech but in time they’ll offer the solution through the bag! Ping have also launched something similar for wedges so I think in the next 1-2 years you’ll see it widely being used! Thanks for watching and for your question! 👍🏼
Interesting technology! Did you buy new clubs?
Hi Torbjørn! I didn’t because I’ve recently purchased a new set and was more showing viewers the process after Wilson gave me the opportunity to come and test it! It was really good though! Thanks for watching! 👍🏼
@@weekendtourpros Thanks for replying! Let me know if you're ever over to Stavanger, Norway 🇳🇴
@@tobbah that’s so cool to hear where you’re from! We visited Stavanger a few years back - I loved Norway! Would love to come back! Will let you know if we do! All the best and thank you for watching! 👍🏼
Blast Motion Golf is the sensor…can also help with player development
Hi M! Absolutely spot on! I think Dan mentions this about halfway through the video too! Brilliant bit of kit! Thanks for watching! 👍🏼
Does this bring the fitting price down ?.
Hi Mick! I think that’s for each individual fitting location to decide! My understanding is Wilson have built the tech. and are currently rolling it out to all approved fitters. My gut feeling is that it probably won’t right now but I’d hope that in time it will! 👍🏼
Thanks sounds great.
This might eliminate bad so called Certified [ brand name ] golf fitters of this world😢
Hi ErEf! Thanks for watching! I definitely think it’s a useful tool for fitters and in 1-2 years will be brand agnostic and part of a fitters kit! 👍🏼
And it’s not trying to sell you the most expensive clubs just to make money L😅
Hi Smithy! Haha! Well it did recommend Wilson’s cheapest irons to me so I’m confident there isn’t a “recommend most expensive” feature built into the design! 😂😂😂 thanks for watching and for your comment! All the best! 👍🏼
I believe there was a study done that found that Club Champion fit over 90% of customers with the most expensive shafts. Their fitters work on commission.
@@keithpanco Hi Keith! That’s crazy if true and would surprise me! What I would say is the recommended shaft for me was a stock option at new after market cost so I have confidence that Wilson isn’t doing this with this tech! 👍🏼
Keep embracing this ai stuff, and watch what happens...
No worries mate, we will get that Terminator dude to help us out
Hi Chris! Whilst I hear you and get the overall concerns about AI in general - I’m one of those who doesn’t want it to go too far - I do think this is a really good use for it and don’t predict that a machine learning algorithm to recommend golf clubs is going to overstep the mark! Thanks for watching! All the best! 👍🏼
Accros should add this feature and preload tour pros swing stats to compare with
Now that’s a cool idea! Imagine that! Being able to see how your swing compares to a tour pros! Love it! 👍🏼
