ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 ส.ค. 2024
- In this video Ian and Mike fit Ryan - a lower-handicap golfer to a new set of irons to help him gain distance and lower his ball flight.
Before diving into the fit Ian helps Ryan gain control of his dynamic loft to help add more ball speed, create lower spin and help him hit a draw.

If Ian wasn’t a fitter, he’d be a top tier coach.
I came to the comments section just for this 👍🏻
Agreed
Thank you Jon!! 🙏🏻
100%
The combination of swing coach, technology and fitting knowledge is why Ian is by far the best fitter out there. It’s why fitting is art and science.
"This aint no hobby, RB..."
Amazingly appropriate. Love it as always, keep it up. 👍
I can say from experience, when Ian drops a couple of tips into a fit, listen!
My swing improved measurably just by him showing me a better turn into my back swing.
Love how sole width gets a mention on TXG videos yet gets overlooked by most fitters
That amongst other things. There are layers of details missed in most fittings I’ve witnessed.
i love seeing these new videos with RB and Mike.
they are absolutely more relatable to us mere mortal golfers in the audience.
As much as i loved Matty boi on the show, he swung a club at a robotic level that will never be achievable for 99% of your audience.
Onwards and upwards 🙌
Loving the new content 👌
Agreed!
Agree
The word that keeps coming up is “RELATABLE”! Great content lately. Doesn’t mean we don’t like to see Ian rip it and I watch all of Matty’s videos, but this is packed with info we can use when we get to the range and ultimately the course! Well done.
Dude. That tip about not worrying about opening the face at ground parallel is game changing. Since I went and got lessons from my local pro I have some better fundamentals but I have struggled with closing the face consistently because he has me opening it straight up. I will be trying out the cupped wrists thing next time I go to the range. This is why I watch this channel.
It’s not a cupped wrist, that’s the opposite, it’s called wrist Flexion or a bowed wrist. Just good to know which is which
Ian "The Glasgow Ranger" Fraser. One of the best in the game no doubt. Blue Chip Fitter, Blue Chip Player.
One of the better fittings I’ve seen on the channel. Great adjustment and then the strike and the numbers don’t lie.
Brilliant! You guys did an amazing job, another awesome lesson in fitting. The golfers of Canada are lucky to have access to you...P.S - 'this ain't no hobby', best line of 2022!!!
Ian hit us with the Kevin Kisner swag hahaha
Hi I am so glad I saw this video, I have been single figure handicap for 57 years and have similar technique issues as your man. After employing the wrist under tip on the takeaway shot 2 over yesterday and struck irons beautifully and gained 11yds carry per iron. Many thanks Ian, you have a new subscriber from Surrey England
Love that Ian kept trying more clubs after the t100s. It shows he really cares about improving, regardless of brand, and even by the smallest margins. Shows a real passion for achieving data backed results rather than a commission check. Makes me want to save up and fly to Canada just to get fit.
Best coaching and fitting I’ve seen. Wow so interesting. Wish I could afford to go see them.
Coming out of a TPI assessment, it was good to see how Ian responded to Ryan’s physical limitation. Not everyone is physically able to get into “ideal” positions.
Great vids. Ian is certainly a leader in the business
Like someone else I saw in the comments, I had a similar delivery and dynamic loft and had made a similar change (and strengthened my grip some eventually and flattened my lie angles); and it most certainly similarly benefited me. But I know I'm still leaving some on the table with my current irons, so it was great not just to see what they tried and what worked for Ryan, but more so to hear the explanations of the why. I know I might reach a somewhat different outcome given all the variables, but the insights are so helpful in a general sense as I look to get fit with irons to better compliment my own (in this case very similar) delivery. Thank you Ian, Mike and Ryan.
I knew that the club face had to be parallel to the spine angle on the back swing, but to see Ian demonstrate it with someone was gold. That's me hitting it high and short, hopefully this can be addressed at my fitting in March.
I tried this on the indoor range today and couldn't stop hooking the ball. Will need more practice.
Ian is a really good fitter partly because he's a good teacher too
I am only half way through video and this is already one of my favorite videos on TH-cam. All subject included. Ian has scholarly advice that is articulated with best friend intentions. Well done boys.
Love the tip about creating a little pressure in the forearm as a checkpoint to measure that wrist position in the takeaway. Something that personally think I can use. Brilliant
Great now I want to get fitted ASAP and see if I can get similar results! Very similar issues to Ryan high floaty misses, don’t want swing changes. Purely maintenance! Just when I thought I was done for golf equipment for 2022 I watch this video. I’m not even mad, excited!
As fun as it is to watch Matt crush the ball, RB is like spot on my swing speed. Loving how much more relatable the videos have been with RB and Mikey!
"This ain't no hobby" - love it
Hugely helpful. I imagine the folks at TXG would recommend having a clear intention for your fit, know your miss, your path and face tendencies and how you're hoping technology will help. Been working on the exact same swing changes as Ryan here, you can tell he's the low handicapper though by how quickly he was able to go 4.5 out to in to 1.8 in to out in just one swing! For us average bears, more of a journey.
This was world class. Well done TXG team! It’s funny, I went in to get fit for T100S and Pro 223 this week. It was a coin flip but I ultimately went with the Pro 223 head with Modus3 Tour 120 shaft. I preferred the compact shape and feel/feedback of the T100S but the ever so slightly larger head of the Pro 223 gave me just a little more piece of mind in the forgiveness department. A combo T100S/T200 set would have been awesome though.
Going in tomorrow to get fitted either for the APEX PRO ‘21 or MIZUNO PRO 225 irons, also tending towards the Modus 2 Tour 120 shaft. 👍🏻
Fantastic. I have the same distance loss with my irons... high, straight floaters... to the range I go!
"this ain't no hobby..." - Love it!
The sheer amount of knowledge Ian has is wild. Especially when you realize how young he is.
Thank you Colton. I was very fortunate to have some seriously smart people around me when I came into the golf industry. They showed me the standard that I need to reach to be a leader in the industry.
@@clubchampionmedia you sir have reached that standard. Keep doing what your doing. Iv only been golfing for almost 3 years now and I've picked up so much from you guys I love all the numbers and analytics. With golf growing the way it is you guys are so important. Please open up a shop in the states!
@@clubchampionmedia Ian, Onneof my favorite TXG vids. It'd be interesting to see Mike go through the fitting process as well because if I recall, his ball flight is opposite of RB's right? Has trouble with low shots and holding greens?
I have selfish reasons as I used to have RB's flight, made the same changes you've shown in the video and tend to have lower flight, lower spin and balls aren't holding greens like they used to.
It's called "passion".
Great job men. Never took the time for a fitting before but after watching you guys the last couple years I will never buy another club without. I recommend fits and your channel to any golfer that will listen to me. Great job.
Awesome. Your videos over the last week are hitting it out of the range for me. Great stuff! We need you in Western Canada!!!
I have been waiting for a video on this topic for SO LONG! I’ve always struggled with the high floater and windy conditions are my worst nightmare. I will definitely be making similar changes to my swing the way Ian did to Ryans. Would love some T100S irons as well but that might be a little further down the road. Thank you for the content guys!
First 10mins of this video is great. Where technique and clubs meet
“This ain’t no hobby “ love the reference to Kiz haha
RB is literally me. Low HC. 6i swing speed low 90s. High weak flight and severely lacking distance considering my swing speed. Out to in path. This video was gold.
"This ain't no hobby" - Best quote ever! Absolutely loved everything about this video... info, format, topic, etc. Keep it up lads!!
Ha ha Kevin Kisner quote
👍 Love the recent technical content. Ian talking swing dynamics is adding another level to TXG videos.
nice to see Mikey and RB doing the testing since they are mere mortals like most of us.
Looks like I just had my virtual fit. Struggle with same issues of forearms rolling over and hitting a high weak shot but predictable. Also have similar grip and just like Ian said very hard to change it! Will try the glove hand down drill and need to get me some t100s and Amt! Also love that shaft in other sets. As a shallow player I have also noticed do better with thin soled clubs like p750 which I use now. T100s seems like a good fit! Great video.
Great fitting session ! I always loved your low, mid, high fitting content the most. Ryan and I has undergone almost the same swing change. Flight an lenght characterstics is also the same, so I'm superstoked to try out the same group of irons for my new set. I have an "ancient" set of now. Right up my alley.
By far the best channel for golf on youtube. You guys always kill it. So much knowledge, thanks for sharing!
My man!! Appreciate that Jacob!! 👊🏻
Ian, this is fabulous coaching. You’ve got a such a relatable attitude you’d be a great instructor.
Thank you Colin!! 🙏🏻
This is 100% me. Great video, cheers lads.
This is just great. I love the approach to truly fit, and even help find the most potential in the swing rather than a focus on a quick sale. Class!
Just let Ian do these on his own. He is so knowledgeable, professional, and would never utter the phrase “hear the air leaving the ball.”
So leave him alone, let him do what I believe, is the best in the business.
I’ve been in the business over 35 years. Sometimes I ask myself, “What would Ian do?”
I have the AMT red shafts. Love them
This has been the most helpful video ever for me! I have very similar swing speed to RB and have had similar delivery issues with my irons. I used these tips and applied them to my swing and instantly started striking my irons better. I can’t wait for better weather to see the results on the course! Great work guys! I love the channel and Mike and RB are a great combo!
Hey man, same boat here. Could you mind explaining exactly what you started doing differently or implemented after watching the video? I just can't grasp the video that well I'm sorey
Probably, for me, this video was the most informative.
Appreciate it!
For golfers who need maximum shock absorption and who want a heavier shaft that has a “steel-like feel and performance “, I have been creating my own version of the AMT concept by using the KBS TGI graphite shafts, beginning with the 80, 90, or 95 gram shafts in the longest irons (depending on the golfer’s strength and clubhead speed) and progressing to TGI 100 or 110 in their wedges. I have done this for myself (TGI 80 in the 5 through 9 irons, TGI 90 in my PW, and TGI 95 to 100 in my more lofted wedges), and it works great. I like the AMT steel for Ryan, as long as it doesn’t exacerbate the elbow pain.
“This ain’t to hobby RB” haha quote of the video
I was Ryan 2 years ago and saw similar changes by cupping the wrist. Its amazing the change it makes!
Yes fitting videos mainly irons hybrids and woods are just brilliant videos and the work round to complete the fit
One of your best videos. I am a low handicapper coming back from two knee replacements. Your points are dead on. Too bad you are so far away from phoenix Az. Ever think of opening a 2nd location here? Cheers!
This is incredibly comprehensive and super helpful. Amazing coaching.
I've nearly convinced myself to fly from Texas to Canada just to be fit by Ian.
Brilliant yet again, more of these fit/coaching video's 👍👍
I started to flex my lead wrist on the backswing and it has helped my swing tremendously. It felt so closed but impact was great.
I have also been working on keeping that face pointed down more on the takeaway. Great results!
Man it would be awesome to get a fitting by you all. Here it just seems like the “fitters” push P790s and higher end clubs w.o taking my swing style or characteristics into consideration!
Hit the nail on the head for me. Gonna try the wrist angle change. But yes, as someone looking at an iron fitting in the next month or so, this was a great video.
The knowledge is amazing great to see someone doing a proper job
This was incredible to watch from start to finish, get that cc RB!
I can totally relate! "Struggle in the wind", struggle with high floaty shots, even though I have plenty of club head speed. I've been a functional flipper for ever. Using a stronger grip, or bowing the wrist was a panacea at first. And then other days, I'm all over the place and revert back to my floaty, but accurate flip.
One of the best videos that relates more to me that I've seen .
Superb information. 👏👏👍
Love the video, so relatable swing wise. I was fit for both T100S and 225's and went Mizuno mostly on the basis of confidence in the head size as the Titleist do look a bit intimidating in the lower irons and I couldn't get my head round the plastic back on the T200 for a combo set. Having to change to graphite due to joint issues so really looking forward to the blue box day in a week or so. Much as I love watching Ian and Matty its nice too see someone who swings similar to myself and what the right fit and a little tip can do for you. Great job guys, can you do the same for the driver? Feel like I'm really missing out there so be great to see a similar video on driver/fairway for RB. More of this type of video please, great advert for TXG and as help for us mortals.
SOOOO excited for this one. I need help with delivering less loft at impact also. Let's watch and see what I can learn.
Interesting results with his mp20 mmc. My swing speed is a touch slower than his, and my jpx 919 tour is lofted weaker, 30° 6 iron. My carry is usually 182-185. But it comes down to your impact, my hands are always well forward of the ball at contact, effectively delofting the club.
Tempo is so quick. I tend to shank if i swing that fast. Coming from the inside can be bad if you overdo it and don’t make other adjustments. Great video.
Get video! As a new fitter, this hit a sweet spot for me. A lot of people want to get fit for clubs but really need instruction before a true fit can be done. I’m not a certified instructor so it’s hard to get into the instruction side of the fit.
Great vid. Fun to watch. To your final point.... I have the opposite issue. Feel good about irons distance, but my driver may fall shorter at times than my 3 wood.
Top fit and top advice. Small tips like that is absolutely perfect. I’m working on the very same thing just now and it’s paying dividends. Great to see such a big difference in RB’s fit. Top job and keep the fits like that coming. 🤙
more great content from the TXG Tres Amigos 😁
Wow!!! That was a massive improvement in no time at all. What a game changer. Please give us an update as to how the on course shots and scoring may have changed.
Great video guys! I’ll be using the lead wrist bend to help me keep the face squared
Ian hit us with the Kevin Kisner swag, this ain't no hobby!!
Like RB, I suffer from high ball flight and excessive spin. Our speeds are almost identical and the results are much like looking in a mirror. I was very excited to see how much the results improved after the change in take away and wrist angle. That will be my next point to try at the range. Lastly, as a Mizuno player myself I was a little saddened to see RB didn't end up with the 223! Good stuff boys.
Would like to have seen the ZX7 in the mix since RB was doing better with the characteristics of the players cavity vs players distance heads. I know you can’t try everything, just would’ve been interesting to see how ZX7 performs instead, especially since low spin seemed to be the main complaint with ZX5.
Same.
Amazing section on technique, need more of that!!!
Ian is such a great coach
Awesome guys, pure quality fitting. You are really meshing a a team.
I gotta try that wrist trick im a bit in the same boat excellent video guys
Maybe my favourite TXG video
Great video guys…informative and fun as always plus a quality tip from Ian to boot! You guys are gelling well now and I concur with many of the other comments about the relatability of speeds and ability for the majority of your audience. Great stuff…keep up the excellent work 👌
Mikey, you got me cracking up! .... your literally one sec from bursting out laughing in some of these shots! makes for great content man! Keep up the good work guys!
Great video. Hits close to home. Thanks gents well done.
way to go RB, this was awesome to see.
@ian, love the nod to Kis "this aint no hobby"
I would love to have you fit my clubs!!!! Absolutely amazing combination of swing coach and fitter!!!
Canadian winters aren't so bad in beautiful British Columbia 🙂
Outstanding video! This was so so good to watch!
I definitely relate to that swing. Great information as always. Fascinating how the data leads to the fix
Atta boy RB! See like I said, just a couple swing adjustments more than full blown tear down and rebuild. Instantly 20 yards extra, you’re compressing the ball and not relying on as much timing to get the ball near the hole.
Awesome video and insight into the fitting process!
so much information , Ian is the man!
Great freaking video! By far the best this season. I feel like i am exactly like RB
Interesting fitting! Currently playing Apex cf16 stiff kbs shafts, great clubs. A bad back dictates an upgrade, Apex 21 are they much better, Rogue st Pro, Mizuno 225s and other choices? Can you please run a bracket in this category, it would be enormously helpful!
great video guys, really helps understand your process
When you had RB shift into an inside-out swing path, he needed to stand slightly further away from the ball. Every strike he made with the new swing path was heel-side contact. Prior to that he was able to move more around the sweet as the center of his impact dispersion. Most people who hit fades can stand closer to the ball, whereas hitting draws and hooks rewards a player who stands slightly further away.
Loving their work of late but this one is a keeper!
Great vid. Bit of old school TXG content there.
