Long time equipment enthusiast but at 68 years old my best golf is far behind me...........but I still love it. I enjoy your videos very much! I watch MANY videos on equipment but yours is one of my favorites. Thank you for what you bring us, I look forward to Tuesdays.
Just got fitted for the stealth plus rescue 3 today. I needed something between my 3 wood and my 4 iron and something that would be good in the rough or on weird undulations. I play with stiff shafts, my fitter said I needed a "smooth" stiff so I guess its coming with that hazardous red you have on the regular stealth. I feel the same way as you, I am not a big fan of a "woody" head and wanted a long iron but can't stand the look at address, I was really launching that hybrid today.
One of my favorite clubs is still the 22-degree 4 GapR-Hi, fully opened and delofted to 20.5-degrees, with a 'softer' but 'heavier' Steelfiber i110 X-Flex shaft, playing 1/2" shorter, for my 220-carry club.
An area of the bag that always interests me as I don’t like fairway woods at all. . . I recently moved away from the ‘loft sleeve’ hybrid models I had been tinkering with and got myself the M4 ‘2021 Edition’ Rescue. . . The thing is just so good to hit!
@@trottiegolf For amateurs is there a swing type(easy and repeatable) you think that requires less intricacies/timing? I hear single swing plane is super simple but open to other types of swings
Hey Chris I was wondering if you had any drills to help me work on my driver loft. Went and got fitted for a 3HL stealth. Tested drivers as well and with an 8 degree I was still getting shaft lean of 18 avg sometimes 22.
@@trottiegolf I have no preference if it’s 8 or 9 degree but sorry I’m new to the data analytics of golf and really coming back to golf. But my dynamic loft is in the 18-22 range on my driver my attack is 4-6 on avg
@@trottiegolf awesome thanks trottie! You are the man! Watching your stuff has got me driven to golf again! And been loving it. Learning a lot keep up the awesome work!
It's ok brother. I got 3 hybrid with the softer shaft also. With the smaller head and softer shaft I saw the ball still launching higher but pentrating with a 44* decent angle. So I think your video did me well

more reason to hit those hybrids, unless you miss right because hybrids tend to be hook machines if that's your miss
Love it! No marketing buzzwords, just raw opinions from a guy who's spent a career studying the game and golf equipment 👌🏻
Softer shaft on hybrid, great insight. Thanks Trottie!
Thank you so much. This really helps to make a decision which club to choose. 🙏🏻🙏🏻😊👍🏻

love vid im a senior and it seem that most hybrid i fight a draw is the plus offset the draw biad any or there is better option thanks
Love your channel
I’m 100% on board with softer and lighter. Love the vid as always! If you were to put this in, what would you take out Trottie?
I drop my 3 iron whenever I drop the rescue in, it’s going great guns
Did you tip the shaft in your final build? If so how much and why (or why not)? Thanks!
yes .5" just to have the club play a touch stiffer. I always find straight in isn't enough & a 1" tip at this total length would be too boardy
@@trottiegolf thanks, makes sense!

Interesting, why go for the lighter/softer shaft? What benefits does that have?
Feel & just far more playable as I can launch it very easily
@@trottiegolf that’s what I was thinking, super cool piece of information to think about. Thanks for the reply brother!
Why is it spinning more? Head or shaft combo?
Head
Hey Trottie!
How much do you usually tip a 3 wood shaft for a high speed tour player? Say 3 wood speed at about 112 mph.
1.5”
@@trottiegolf Thanks :)

@@giomusah2155 you gotta groove it & spend time with your alignment sticks and creating a consistent set up. That's key, consistency to what you do
Any videos of you playing some rounds coming out? Love on course content
Maybe….. I keep thinking about heading down that route. What would you wanna see?
@@trottiegolf 9 holes, matches versus other quality golfers, collabs…like watching competitive golf
Can you clarify which is the softer and lighter shaft please? Couldn’t make it out on screen

He tried to help me with fixing it at the fitting but said it’s something I have to work on my own since it’ll take some time.
@@Kaigaughen shaft lean of 18 - 22 what? What was your attack angle. Why don't you want to use 8*

@@Kaigaughen Sounds like you need to compress a little more. Pre set impact and work half speed shots to bring down the dynamic loft
