What you’re saying is UN perfect you are 100% perfect yeah so I’m going to talk to you about Wilson fit AI this is a new fitting solution which has the sensor at the butt end of the grip that’s a KBS 95 just a standard S Flex so it is a

Fitting Club it’s built into the grip correct so what you can do is you can just pull this out okay charge that sensor pop it back in and then you’re good to go is easy as that that would be a are you the only guys with it yes the

First in the industry regarding a recommendation based on your swing characteristics recommends your shaft and head combination to get you in that perfect window this sensor actually spits out 12,000 data points which we then break down into 120 I know I’m obsessive but 12,000 might be a little

Bit much for me yeah well it’s it’s one of those ones that you have so much data that you don’t know what to do with so what we’ve done is we broken down into 120 and then broken that down again into 5 key Matrix says the AI does it you

Keep saying we you don’t do any of this welli Wilson it goes into a Wilson blackbox algorithm so the sensor spits out the data okay from there it goes into a blackbox algorithm which does the magic behind it and then it gives you a recommendation of shaft grip and head

Combination based on your swing characteristics you okay which is pretty cool so what we’re going to get you to do is going to swing it and then see if it matches up with your current specs that you have in your bag right now okay I’m interested actually obviously from a player’s perspective

Effective generally you you you stick with what you know certainly in the short term like if you’ve got a big competition you shouldn’t be changing anything for that competition longer term you can certainly move around and change things we’re always curious that there’s something better out there 100% so it

Would be nice to get an answer yeah well we get we’re definitely going to get you an answer so what you do what the golf is going to get is they’re going to go through a series of questions which you’ve done already and then we’re going

To get into the fitting so once we do what we’re going to do is hit three to five swings from there I’m going to show you some really cool data about gyro and about accelerometers and how much G you’re putting on your on your golf

Swing okay so it’s 79 it’s a 79 length yeah standard standard length in um let me hit it I want to hit it yeah this is going to give me all the answers it’s going to give you everything that you need to know okay and grip it underneath

You don’t underneath white part yeah okay okay first one what’s cool about it is it give you a little Ting a little ping to say that you’ve hit the shot okay okay little H it’s still a little tin clean the cruise make sure everything’s right okay we get a good one Here and then that little thing tells that you’ve done your fitting okay um and from there y it tells you all about your selected swing so here’s your first one you said you hit a little thin and then two here so I wouldn’t capture that one I would just have those two yeah

Okay and then those are ones that we’re going to take into so from there it analyzes your swing characteristics pretty quick and then this is your swing on accelerometer so we’re looking at powerful for your Peaks acceleration with your G’s okay so this is based on everyone that we’ve collected so far

Including Tor Pros like yourself down swing unhinge you’re a little early which is kind of characteristic for that PGA Tour golfer um and then your face closure you’ve got all of these swing characteristics where you can see all about your swing now that was the accelerometer okay if we go into your

Gyroscope we can see do well that’s what I have to see know it’s it’s so cool when you get to see this so all every single one has a wrist hinge of this way okay this way and then how you take your Club back okay so on the orange you take

It slightly outside the line it’s the Wonder stage just a tad and then your face closure which is that green line is actually really perfect to the parallel of your swing okay and then as you got here where everything converges is the top part of your swing okay so this is

Where you start to really load it down okay and then everything comes together right at the same time and everything Peaks and then which would expect exactly what you’re saying is UN perfect you are 100% perfect yeah apart from the first shot editing edit just edit that out

It’s good so where where we look at this your max rotation so where you’re coming through and you’re rotating through it’s very very powerful your back swing hinge is really nice and it’s a mid timing so if you think of it’s 100 Z for on the

Back swing and then zero to 100 okay so when it’s coming down it’s just you get all this data and if you’re a fitter this is obviously designed for that fitter yeah you’re you’re interpreting this much quicker than I am right because you’re used to seeing yeah I’m

Just noticing but the dumb down version’s at the bottom yes this is perfect version right it says down at the butt okay your launch is high your your swing plane is a little flat Tempo is moderate powerful loading obviously and uh what’s PCB it’s going to be your

Players CB okay so that’s the club that’s the club that’s recommending so you’re going to be a CB golfer okay you launch it high which is what I mean so yeah yeah but the basics at the end is is the down version and then you go from

Here and it shows you what what recomendation obviously as you see I I launch it high enough so you know there’s I need some help but I don’t need all the help exactly and then it gives you the shaft that is recommending plus length and lie all that kind of

Stuff come down so we take your measurements when it comes line go we want it to be specific to that golfer so it will recommend what’s right for you to bring it back to Target line but you can then adjust that based on the shot you want so for instance if the

Algorithm right that we’re we’re talking about it’s self-learning so your fitting is going to go into the algorithm and then fittings across the globe we’re going to get a really good representation of the philosophies of Fitters that may be override to to what that gol for wants but also how everyone

In global aspect brings their fittings together so this is one of the most accurate fittings around currently I was very what I really wanted to see was the was the LIE how much they recommend it for the lie which one degree up is where I’m at and I’m happy with that cuz I

Suppose I’ve done it the old school way by putting a black line on the ball and seeing that it’s Square on the face so the both of them have cor cor oh correlated correlated there you go there you go but what is yeah that’s I like I

Like that exactly what you just said but if you are that golfer that wants to Tinker around and say the b flight was a little bit Tire with that shaft when you once you build it go in and you can adjust it from here and you go hey I

Want to go for a little bit lower lower shaft let’s go for the project xlz we we’re trying to get you into a window of like Optimal distance plus stopping power okay I’m I’m I’m sneaking a little bit impressed I’m trying to figure out what I could do with this for myself and

Keep going in there all the time well we might be able to send you one down okay and there you go thank you very much thank you Wilson fit AI it was very nice thank you very much har appreciate it thank you go to wilson.com where you can find more information and experience

Wilson fifth AI that win that was the winner there we go

  1. Did it recommend him his current shaft? I’m sort of surprised to see he hits a 7 iron 86 mph since I know his driver swing can get into the 120s.

  2. Love seeing Paddy in this video. Now that ya'll have Ben Kruper on the roster, can we see a fun golf challenge vid with Paddy and Ben?? 😁

  3. ridiculous that it took this long for Wilson to start it's own golf channel. 5,000 subscribers. You all better push padraig more and more without being salesy.

  4. So, where in tne UK can i get fitted using this new tool? I play wilson irons already but would like to be properly fitted.
