I Had My First Golf Fitting Session… And It Was Incredible



This week I go through my first golf fitting ever, where I get fit for new irons. I went in hoping to feel more comfortable standing over my clubs, and I ended up with so much more than that.

  1. can't wait to see what you get. started this year at an 18 hdcp and after yesterday I got to a 13.8. shooting regular low 80s now. fun to watch your game improve along side mine

  2. So, a month ago (you can look at the video yourself), Zack and you were talking about your 83-85 mph clubhead speed with your 8 iron. Here, you never even get one 7 iron to 80 mph clubhead speed. All of them were in the 78-79 mph range. So is Zack's machine juiced or something and giving bad data? That is quite a disparity.

  3. When I clicked on your video I was like, “I wonder if he’ll go with a titlest?”

    Sick to see your dispersion so tight! Can’t wait to see how your new clubs stack up out on the course!

  4. How do you know when to get fitted vs work on your swing more? Meaning if your swing isn’t great and that’s why launch angles aren’t ideal, how do you decide how much more to work on your swing?

    Also, no gator chomp on this video?! That’s the #1 reason I come!

  5. Thanks for this. I'm going to go see Mike in the near future. I bought a full set about a year ago and the fitting was NOTHING like this. I think my lie angles are way off because my swing has changed quite a bit since I was fitted..

  6. Oh boy has to be og t100s if you will have in a week I don’t think the 150 won’t be out till mid august 🤔

  7. I play the Mizuno 223's and love them.

    One thing I will say is please take them out onto a grass range to hit too before you buy , as turf interaction is also a big thing.
    The range / simulator mats hide our mistakes, clubs bounce off the matt hiding chunky shots etc..
    So if you can, get em on some grass and hit them too…

  8. Love you shared this video. Definitely shows the importance of a fitting. The Mizuno Pro 223 and T100S are more comparable to me as they’re more cavity back player irons with sim Iliad lofts. I would absolutely love to have the T150 in my bag. I currently play JPX 923 Hot Metal Pro with Nippon Pro 120 shaft. Excellent club, but the Titleist is special.

  9. Thanks for going to see Mike. All positive reviews from every client that has gone to see him! Really happy to have him as a resource for building a complete golf game.

  10. Great video, swing's looking great. Not sure if you've mentioned before but what's your height and weight?

  11. Dude, I hope you got the Mizunos. You were repeatedly painting the flagstick with those. Also Mizunos feel so pure

  12. I got fitted and the experience was not nearly this good. All that to say, when you get fitted go to someone like the guy in this video!

  13. This dude needs to organize his shafts…spent 5 mins fumbling through golf shafts trying to find one. 😂

  14. Custom fitting definitely helped my game when I got back into golf. Those 20 year old clubs were just not gonna cut it. My fitting wasn’t this detailed but I know it helped. Glad to see you get some awesome help with the process. 👍🏻🏌🏻‍♂️

  15. Need to get fitted 😭 Just shot an 82 other day been playing tips 7100 yards. Finally single digits in the handicap.

  16. Haha, I know I suggested you get a fitting…so I am enjoying this immensely. I play the T100s and love them. Very different shaft, I have the Modus 105 in X stiff. Looking forward to part 2!

  17. Great stuff. Mike seems like an awesome guy to get fit with. Interesting to see how different the shafts performed. And how all of us have different things that fit/feel right to us as a golfer, yet we often just buy 'off the rack' irons shafts.

  18. Hey Ernie, nice insight to a fitting. Did you try any Ping irons; the G430 maybe?

  19. Such a great fitting man! You’ve tried a lot of the shafts and club heads I also tried out. Hope you’re going to get a set according to these specs and start playing even better 🔥

  20. I’m so curious how to find a fitter this detailed. My iron fitting they didn’t even try different shafts and all they focused on was distance

  21. This video deserves ALL the views. Love your channel. Took a lesson once with Zach at Bridlewood and instantly improved my game. Could use a driver lesson or 5.

  22. good to see the ball coming out higher that was my biggest concern from the prior videos where there was distance increase but it wasn't going to hold a green

  23. I'm really looking forward to seeing how new clubs work out for you. I know everyone says it makes a big difference, but you are a truer barometer for me because I've followed your journey and feel a connection so I hold your truths higher if that makes sense. I know golf is very individualistic, but it's quite exciting to go through the process with you. It's very vicarious.
