2:17 Testing Different Tee Heights
12:45 Conclusion
In this video we analyze what happens when the ball is teed at different heights, including the effect on the swing path/angle of attack and strike point which in turn changes launch, spin and ball speed.

How this guy gives an order to strike it how ever he asks and matt just produces it is pure talent how he can just adjust the strike at any given moment is absolute gold its mind blowing
As someone who has played golf competitively for over 50 years and is currently a golf coach/instructor, this may well have been the very best and most useful video I have ever had the pleasure of viewing -- which I have done more often than once. And if all my players could hit on demand as well as Matt does, I could retire happily
The way Matty can change club path and strike point on demand is wizard like.
If he could he wouldn't be on YT...
@@gracesiegert6171 There are a lot of golf YoutTube channels where they haven't anywhere near that level of control over their ball striking. Now that being said - they do have the benefit of being able to do as many takes as needed to get the proper strike. It would be interesting to see how many it takes Matty to nail exactly what they're looking for :-)
@D Jameson True enough. They've posted videos of them playing on pretty challenging golf courses and he's pretty good. Not as consistent as in the TH-cam clips...but on those they can edit out really bad ones...also even touring pros miss their spot more than they hit it out on the course.
Great vid. Very informative
@@gracesiegert6171 haters gonna hate huh?
When I got back into the game 3 ago there were two defining game changers for me: Learning to how to hit up on the driver and stumbling across a fledgling TH-cam channel called Tour Experience Golf!! As always great video boys!
Great content once again, Matt's ability to alter his delivery and strike is a wonder. great information to use at the range whilst dialling in the driver.
Best lesson I’ve even seen so far!! It took a year for me to figure out and taught my daughter on this topic. Now it is really clear that what I figured is very close to these guys are talking about!!
Best video of 2020.
Matt hitting 10 mm up the face for each shot is beyond words.
You guys need a nobel prize.
And this is why we love TXG. Another great informative video from you guys and what a student Mattie boy is!!! When we getting Ian’s hole in one challenge, can’t wait for that one. Superb as always. You guys are setting the bar high.
"That's bad!" lol 285 yards right down the center of the fairway. You gotta love Matty 😂
That's exactly what I was thinking right off the hop. Of course when you compare it to the 342 with proper contact that's almost 60 yards. So for the decent mid handicapper that only has 260 max - on a percentage basis that player is now topping out at 215. That's 4 clubs extra into the green. So instead of playing a 7 iron into the green - now you're hitting a hybrid or fairway wood (I'm assuming that with the clubs available today that no player in that handicap range is gaming a proper 3 iron). That's a big difference.
The fact that Matt can move strike up and down at will is amazing
Agreed, i was in awe lol
@@Ichigo1817 no kidding! never bet him on a windy day lol
Yeah he should win a major this year
This is one of the best ones yet! I used to be the guy flipping it at the bottom and can attest to the fact that teeing it lower and learning to squeeze it more really helps
This is awesome. Your explanation of cause/effect and how face roll affects "real loft" of the driver face is brilliant.
lol, every one of those "horrible" tee shots are longer and straighter than my best.
Don’t feel lonely. 😂 We don’t have a 120mph club head speed 😀 mine is closer to 93 mph 😉
I have a feeling that this video is never going to get old. Cheers!
Planning my next road trip vacation to Toronto just so I can get fitted by you guys. Love the content. Helpful, entertaining, and concise. Cheers from Minnesota
Wow guys, this is exactly what my question was about last live session. A real eye opener on the importance of having a good delevery. thank you.
Guys, what a fantastic video! Very clear on the cause and effect. I shared your video with a friend whom I've been trying to explain this concept to for 6 or 9 months after picking it up from you guys and he immediately understood it. I think the key takeaway (that I got from you many months ago) is that the ideal strike is above the equator and out towards the toe which produces a long draw. Perhaps your best video ever!
Matt is amazing the way he puts the club on the ball where its needed. Was watching long drive videos last night. Plus 150 club head speed plus 230 ball speed. On a couple shots they said trackman radar couldnt pick up the ball speed cause ball left to quick. Simply amazing.
This is really interesting stuff and I really found it useful. I am in my 60's and only been golfing for 10 yrs but have 105 SS and have been struggling with distance on my driver, as compared to what I used to hit with same SS. I now play at sea level too, which hurts from where I used to play. Anyway, since being grounded I was playing around on my mat hitting into the net and trying different tee heights. I sprayed the face with foot powder. I found that I got a much more centred strike from lowering my tee height so am looking forward to getting back to a real range to work on it some more
Great video 👍 and many thanks. Can't wait to try this out :)😊
Best video I have seen for years. I am someone with the exact issue that was highlighted in the last swing. I tee it pretty high and my bad shot is always a thin one out the toe which is truly nasty. I have seen hundreds of videos explaining the reason and giving lots of swing drills but this one video with 14 minutes of info on the impact of the club face bulge and roll and its direct correlation to spin and launch has TURNED THE LIGHTS ON!!!!
I often do tee it down to try and play that little squeeze fade fairway finder and land up hitting the bombed draw off the tee. A simple explanation with a simple method to practice and combat the problem has literally clarified 5 years worth of issues and 30y left on the table.
Now to just get out there after the lock down and see this in action. Cannot thank you guys enough.
Probably the best video I've watched for improving my driving, all this time I thought I was playing a higher tee than I actually was and looking at these results it's probably cost me a lot more than 20 yards. Can't wait to get out and try playing around with this ! Thanks again guys, loving the content :)
Amazing amount of quality information in what seemed like a five minute video. As a mid to high handicapper I'm sure it will take weeks to implement the knowledge gained. Great job on desired strike on command!
Cheesus... I feel like these videos just keep getting better! This is just golden knowledge! Thanks for the best golf content on TH-cam!!! 👏👏👏
What you discussed at the end is exactly the shot I hit all through the bag!! Thanks for the help. Fascinating stuff that....stay safe lads
So good stuff your guys are showing us. This just opens a book for me and I understand much better the connection between hight of the te and of the swing path/angle of attack and strike point.
Guys, I tried this at the course today and it made a world of difference. Thanks so much for the tip.
Love your videos. By far the most informative on TH-cam. Thanks for empowering us average golfers with the knowledge to help us become better players. It’s especially helpful during this tough time of lockdown 👍
This is probably the best and most concise video I've seen on this topic. Huge eye opener for me. Explains my 280 yard swing with 240 yard results.
The different lofts in the same head vs launch angle is the best explanation i have seen yet!!! I love this and feel i will benefit from this video. Thanks
One of your best videos to date! Get info that many players don't know about! Keep up the good work!
How come I just asked myself this half an hour ago, and then I go to TH-cam to find that you have made a video _just_ about this? Gosh I love you guys
love these educational videos, been working on my drive after watching some of these, was averaging 250 off the tee(the occasional great hit to 270), last two rounds been 270-280 on about half of my drives. will keep working on it hoping to get closer to 300 one of these days.
I'd like my good drives be as good as Mat's bad drivers.
This is without doubt the best informational and technical site on the internet, thanks guys keep it up.
You guys and crossy are now my fav channels. Love the detail
Ian you explain things so well and I love the way you don’t talk at or down to your clients. Most fitters make the costumers feel uncomfortable. I’d travel to Canada to get fitted if I had the dough
Easily one of your best videos. So well explained and clearly demonstrated, thank you both very much - again.
This is possibly the best explanation not tee height I've seen. Can't wait to get the chance to play around with it.
What a great video to show the impact tee height can make. I unknowingly was teeing my ball to the middle of the driver last summer and my drives just kept coming up shorter than normal. About 2 or 3 weeks left in the season I realized it and started hitting my normal distances again and then some. It's crazy how finite it can be.
Thanks guys, learned alot today, and I believe I'm one of those players that leave distance on the table and I'm itching to take this to the courses once they're open again.
Matt's level of strike is pure filth!! There's no need!! Great informed video again lads. Well done. The sheer volume of fact based information and knowledge you lads have is 2nd to none. Thank you for sharing with us
No one on line is teaching viewers on this topic - except Ian. Great presentation! P.S. And great job by Matty showing the strikes and flights!
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I’d never heard about roll of a driver face before. And showing the results from different strike points compared to tee heights was eye opening for me. The day after watching this video, I gained 30 yards on my drives.
another fabulous video boys. Matty your club control to show us each shot is amazing (even if their is some editing). Ian love the understanding you have and how you explain stuff. Honestly shocked that loft changes so much across the face top to bottom. It explains why when I'm driving it well I have to reduce driver loft as I naturally hit it a bit high in the clubface and when I'm down on confidence in the driver I have to loft up the head as my strike gets lower on the head. It makes a bit of sense as to why I have to do that now as opposed to me doing it to purely help my driving as something I have found works. Thanks.
...and every amateur golfer just got WAY better 😂
❤️ you guys
Another great video. Props to Matt for hitting low, centre, high face shots at each height
Frequent watcher of your content but don't take enough time to thank you for the outstanding quality of your vids. This was a fantastic explanation of how I can go out and vary my driver distance from 240's to 290's just dependent on strike and AOA. Now if I could just manage to do the right one intentionally every now and again that would be fantastic! Lol
Catching up on videos I've missed. I needed to see this one. Thanks guys! 🙌⛳🏌️♂️🇦🇺
Thanks for taking the time to explain these principles in detail. Love to feel out on this stuff!
Fantastic Video for anyone struggling off the tee!!! Great video guys! mattys swing looking incredible!
Every day I look forward to your videos. So helpful, informative and fun! Thx
went back and rewatched this video again - great info
I love every single video you post.
The way you talk About golf is unique and comes across as the most honest channel of them all. I ALWAYS learn something of great value 👍🏼😎👍🏾❤️
If those changes in strike and angle of attack were done in 1 take I am super impressed. Hats off to you Matty
Thanks so much.You guys produce the BEST golf content on TH-cam in my opinion.
There's so much good info on this video that I've watched it multiple times.
TXG videos at their best. Qual vid guys. Very technical with so much good information. Love the channel. 👍
Enjoying the new club/ball view that you guys are using to show how the club is interacting with the ball.
This is a magnificent demonstration of how a seemingly trivial thing like tee height can affect performance from the tee box. Save yourself a lot of frustration and get your tee set proper.
Lads. A big thank you here, played my first 9 holes since the lockdown here in Ireland. Ive been away from the game for a few years and started playing again in October. I play to 16. Ive been struggling with distance off the tee, hitting toe and low balls. Very little distance. I have a g400 lst with hzrdous yellow 76g 6.0. Its a bit stiff for me with my 85mph swing speed. But im also a out to in and steep.
Until i watched this video and teed it much higher. Top 3/4 off the ball above the face and forward. Suddenly im swinging flatter and hitting the ball on the up. Ive started hitting high face and toe to centre. Raised my apex by 30% and gained 30 yards plus straight or draw.
The yellow is not optimal and ill be doing a fitting in a few months when normality returns.
But i thought id say thanks and slainte
You manage to make a video about tee height gobsmackingly awesome. Thank you professors!
Wow! Once again thanks so much for these types of videos! I have learned soooo much from this! Can’t wait to head out to the range with some foot spray to work on my driver strike location!! Thanks guys
Ian: great point about the super high tee. In an attempt to hit more up on the driver for more distance. I was too much weigh on my trail side, lead shoulder tilting up not rotating and then you're kind of flipping at it. The swing flaw trickled into my entire game. Went back to regular tee height(1/2 ball above driver head) and feeling my lead shoulder goes down and around. if you think about it, the driver head is moving upward due to forward ball position and legs are rising up from squatting at the start of the downswing. When I strike the ball above the equator of the face results are pretty good. I see what you"re talking about on the range all the time and unfortunately I was one of those people. Matt's ability to hit shots on demand is amazing, you should do a video where you work him through his bag and have him hit different shots with different clubs. Stay well and thank you for the great content.
Thanks for doing this one Ian and Matt. Another worth while tutorial of exploration. Fortunately golf has not been shut down here in Ct and I have played about ten times so far. Hope the rest of the places all over the world can safely open soon too. Joe
Great video!! This has honestly helped me gain about 20-30 yards off the tee!!
Great insights. Always appreciate the lessons in your videos. Can't wait to get out an play a round when they finally open up the courses here in Ontario.
Man these more technical videos are awesome. Optimization - the golden rule!!
Matt is amazing I’ve never seen anyone that could hit shots like that on Q.
Great video lads. Went out today and tried a few different heights with driver and three woods. Hitting it so much better with a lower tee.
Another high quality video jam packed full of info! Thanks guys
by far the best golf analysis on YT
As always guys... brilliant delivery. Solid data and knowledge just showing us all how strike point always out-ways tee hight. 🤷🏻♂️👍👍
Another Great video! I really like the technical aspect of these type of videos!
Matt...you are simply amazing! This is better than golf swing lessons. This information is so valuable if the golfer can apply these principles. Ian...super knowledgeable as always.
another significant video for the everyday golfer from my TXG friends 👍👍👍
Well I have got to say that is probably one of the best TH-cam videos I have seen, absolutely brilliant information I would never have even thought of and now I have a very clear understanding of !!! Ace just ACE and as I am out tomorrow I will give it I go with a good old impact tape and give you some feedback . 🤯👍🏼
This video couldn't have come at a better time for me. I've been underachieving with my drive distance vs my swing speed. Now I know why.
Great video as always and so informative on different strikes . Something every style of golfer can relate too. 👍🏼
Good stuff guys, i've been working on tee high to optimize it too and i could experiment the same answers you got. I could also find that the strike was less consistent the higher the tee goes.
That is eye opening. No wonder I leave so much on the table. Thanks guys!
Probably one of my favorite golf videos. I’ve been experimenting with higher tees and it works. I’ve gotten up to 358 this year. Of course, I also mishit about 60% of the time for 275. :)
After the enforced break I'm going to be happy just to to hit pretty much anywhere on the face. Fantastic job executing the demo shots Matty
I think I am a moon ball... This is exactly what I needed to figure out my drive I am pretty sure. Can't wait to practice it!
So smart. An absolute gem of a channel. 👌
Proving some awesome points here guys! Well done 👏🏼
Awesome video fellas, eye opening stuff. Keep the vids coming.
Great science, guys. January in Canada, so I need to wait a few months to apply this information, but can't wait to do it!
You have done some terrific videos, and this might be the most informative and best. Amazing analysis along with the ability to produce the precise shot. Would be really interested in a description of Spin Loft - and similar optimal target numbers and swing/delivery/setup thoughts.
Ian’s angles are perfect for his swing speed it’s pretty amazing the distance he can get just swinging 110ish
Once again gentlemen great content and food for thought for all of us average golfers 👍🏽
So superbly presented. Well done, boys.
Outstanding. Great stuff you guys are doing. As you mentioned on the live cast. More on this, like ball position would be great. Thank you.
I need 20 yards. I will be implementing this newer higher face up strike. I am dead lower center consistently. Thank you guys. Always enjoy your research and wise experiences.
Great information. Will be checking by strike points this weekend!
these videos are AWESOME. Keep them coming, please!
Matt is an Iron Byron, can absolutely stripe it time and time again, impressive
With editing*
@@kusler67 Lol exactly. You're only seeing the shots that achieve the numbers they are trying to showcase. You can tell he's hit a number of shots because when they show an "ideal" shot he starts with saying "That should be a better one" or "I think that's the one we are looking for". Not taking anything away from Matt, he's definitely a player. But he isn't striping ever swing.
@@MrCoreyRobert Plus the shot counter was at 25 at the end. Now, I wouldn't be able to achieve those shot varieties with 100 attempts.
Love this guys! I’ve been waiting for this for a long time. I’d love to see part two include a combo of tee height and placement of the ball in the stance. Dave Tutleman has some incredible info on his site pertaining to influence of ball placement in the stance and theoretical improvement in distance. As a result of reading that article I now place the ball 4” in front of the inside of my front foot. I am 53 and hitting the ball 280-290. Spin is low and ball flight is straighter.
Tim where was your ball placement prior to your change and how far was your distance? I'm 63 and have my ball placement just inside or on top of my lead foot. Based on what I read on your response is your ball placement now on the outside of your lead foot?
I place the ball 4” in front of my lead foot, yes.
Tim, I went to the range and played my first round with the ball 3-4 inches in front of my lead foot. I think I gained about 20 yds on my drives.
Great principles 're tee height and illuminating. Always something to learn from Ian and Matt. Great advice.👍
Man, hitting the shots on command to Matt is a beast!
You guys are the best. Keep the videos coming.
