Can you order these with swing weight d3
I’d like to see how close Thomas can come to the robot with all the strike locations
Ohhhh okay, now I understand. It's an actual robot.
I thought this was a Halloween episode and they made a robot costume for Thomas Campbell.
Haa haa haa haa.
This is super cool. Can't wait to see more robot data!
The i230 looks very tight from left to right, but could you kindly publish the data using the same scale on both the X and Y axis? That way, it's easier to compare the all shots and individual circles. Thanks.
This is amazing. Would love to see more comparisons between irons within each category.
Mark Timms is the Jack Nicklaus/Tiger Woods of clubfitting.
You guys have the best testing data on YouTube already – this is taking it to the next level!
This might be the best video I’ve ever watched. I LOVE this data!!!!
This is awesome data!
Woah! This is next level! Thanks! Seems like the Cool Clubs founder is a smart guy! i230 seems like it will be replacing my iBlade, just have to get properly fit for a correct shaft.
Great video although I wish you could have also included the i210 it’s replacing.
Interesting but nobody swings like a robot. Not sure if the robot testing actually means anything at all.
How far off center is the Center-Heel and Center-Toe? Edge of grooves?
It should be relatively easy to show those charts on the same scale, would be a great update for the cool clubs people
Are they doing this for every new release? Seems like the same controlled variable experimenting the manufacturers all do but don’t publish. Can they run all clubs of a certain category through the same equation and unequivocally identify which is the best for a certain strike/player? I would assume fitting still needed but if you can eliminate the variables of strike is seems like industry could finally rank clubs against each other with 100% accuracy without bias according to the criteria selected by the buyer. From there buyer could then weigh the importance of look/feel preferences against the fractional performance improvements of one model over another. Is this what you all are doing?
This is amazing – this is not only great for this company, but its amazing they are sharing it as it will help get people fitted into the right club for them
Even tho the scales are a little different, it looks pretty obvious to me that the i230 dominates all the other clubs in these tests. I think Ping has a winner with the new club!
I would love to see some blades tested! They are reputed to be very unforgiving but I have found them no harder to hit than a players distance club. And btw there are some good older golfer who swing 65 mph and still deserve to play good clubs!
Great video – very interesting stuff. I recently purchased a set if i230 clubs so feel happy about that decision after seeing this.
Next time use the same scales to make apples-apples comparison. Tweaking the scales, I can make any manufacturer look great.
