GS008. My New Ping Clubs | Why I Finally Did What I Said I Wouldn’t

Today’s video is about “My New PING Clubs | Why I Finally Did What I Said I Wouldn’t”

Today I come to you very humbled, as I was recently bestowed and incredible honor by PING

You see, PING has made me their 10th (worldwide) Brand Ambassador!

Other PING Ambassadors include:

Chris Como – Former swing coach of Tiger Woods
Chuck Cook – #3 on the Golf Digest list of the nation’s top instructors. He has coached players that have won 9 Majors and 70+ tournaments on the PGA & LPGA tours.
Chris DiMarco – Former PGA Tour player known for his runner-up finish to Tiger Woods in a playoff in one of the best Masters ever in 2005.
Stan Utley – Former PGA tour player and the record holder for lowest putts in a 9 hole round with 6! (Not a misprint, he had 3 chip ins and 6 one putts!)

As part of this process, PING flew me out to their headquarters in Phoenix, Arizona to meet with the engineering team for 2 full days. I was able to tour the facility and meet a ton of awesome people!

In today’s video, I’m going to tell you about this experience and I’m going to show un-box the clubs PING just sent me from my fitting.

The video is packed full of information, including:

A crazy story about what happened during my PING driver fitting,
I’ll let you know what PING and Fort Knox have in common,
Why PING and Top Speed Golf are a perfect marriage, and
So much more!!!

Let’s get started…..

GS007. 4 Driver Secrets Stores Don’t Want You to Know

How would you like to hear “4 driver secrets that golf stores don’t want you do know?”

I bet you have bought a brand new driver that you were just killing on the indoor launch monitor.

Then you get out to the course and can’t hit the thing worth a darn.

In the store you were driving 280, but out on the course, it’s a different story.

You are back to hitting your drives 230.

I go over 4 ways that they can “tweak” the launch monitor, so you think you are driving farther with the new club.

Let’s get started…..

GS006. 10 Golf Ball Secrets (They Don’t Want You to Know)

In this video, I show you 10 golf ball secrets the manufacturers don’t want you to know.

Have you ever wondered what the real differences are between all the various types of golf balls out there?

This ball is super soft, but this ball is made for distance, this ball has two layers, three layers, four layers, five layers……

It can be very confusing.

What if I told you that a large majority of the hype around golf balls is just marketing?

In this video, I’m going to dive into what makes a good golf ball and what you should really be looking at when deciding which golf ball is best for YOUR game.

And there’s one ball out there that may just be giving you the best of both worlds…

Let’s get started…

GS005. Ball Speed | Understanding the Science of Golf (Golf Pro Training)

In this video, you’ll learn everything you need to know about ball speed.

Ball speed is one of the biggest determinants of how far you hit the ball.

Now, you know that off-center hits will likely hurt your ball speed and distance…

But what you may not know is exactly how much your ball speed varies at different areas of contact on the clubface.

In fact, there’s even an area that’s slightly off-center that can actually help get you more ball speed.

In today’s video, you’ll get an interesting, in-depth analysis of ball speed.

You’ll discover…

What factors primary determine your ball speed, and
How PGA Tour players produce ball speed, including their stats for club speed, smash factor, and more.

Watch now to learn the science of ball speed!

GS004. Dynamic Loft | Understanding the Science of Golf (Golf Pro Training)

In this video, you’ll learn how dynamic loft affects your launch angle and spin rates.

Now, you may be thinking to yourself… “Why does dynamic loft even matter?”

I’ll admit some of the golf science that I’ve studied gets pretty “geeky” at times, but understanding dynamic loft is important and is pretty simple once you learn the main concepts.

So check out this video…

You’ll see a simple demonstration to help you understand how your club loft changes depending on how you come into impact.

You’ll finally know exactly why the ball flight was super high or too low…

Or why you didn’t get the spin you wanted on the ball.

Also, you’ll learn the dynamic loft stats of PGA Tour players so you can get a better idea of the optimized loft angles for different clubs.

Watch now to take the mystery out of dynamic loft!

GS003. Spin and Spin Axis | Understanding the Science of Golf (Golf Pro Training)

In this video, you’ll discover how spin and spin axis affect your ball flight.

Your ball spin rate and spin axis plays a huge role in determining your distance, ball flight, and how well the ball checks up on the green.

But understanding these spin dynamics can seem a little daunting…

Until now, of course 🙂

In this video, you get an easy-to-understand analysis of ball spin.

You’ll discover…

How your club loft and angle of attack affects ball spin,
How your ball cuts through the air differently based on how much spin you put on the ball, and
How the gear effect changes your spin axis.

Also, you’ll learn the spin rates of PGA Tour players so you can get a better idea of the optimized spin rates for getting more distance and the spin rates you need to get the ball to check up quick on the green.

Watch now to get a better understanding of ball spin and improve your game!
