Nov 18, 2024 · Hello all, Curious to know what generally occurs with ball flight, spin, carry etc when you have a driver that has a too heavy of a swing weight for your swing. I know other factors are involved such as angle of impact, tee height and others. Just looking for a general answer as my stock GT2 driv...

Sep 6, 2017 · If too heavy, it can throw off our tempo/timing.....leading to erratic dispersion, with a common miss being to the 'push' side. With the driver being the longest club in a set, it naturally has the highest "full club MOI". Sometimes it's too high for …

Jun 7, 2024 · A driver thats too light for one player, can be too heavy for another, so "Light or Heavy", becomes relative to the player, not to a number for actual mass. I found a way to judge this, so we can SEE if the actual weight is too light or too heavy for the actual player.

Feb 21, 2017 · It may not be that its too heavy, it just affected your swing in a negative way. You stated you got fitted with the Modus, so possible the weight of the modus matched your tempo MUCH better than a heavier shaft, It doesnt mean the shaft is "too heavy" per say, its just the weight doesnt match your swing profile.

Aug 3, 2016 · As for grips, I like standard non-taper but around 50g, with 3 layers of tape. Midsize can get too heavy and screw up the calculations. So depending on the weight of the clubhead itself, I calculate whether to use a 43g Winn Excel grip, or a CP2 Pro at 50g. Both have reduced taper so good RH grip.

Jul 16, 2014 · A 500 gram static weight putter with a heavy head and light grip will feel totally different than a 500 gram static weight putter with a light head and heavy grip/shaft. Many of the new counterbalanced putters have relatively similar swing weights as their short putter counterparts, but much higher static weights due to the heavier heads and ...

May 30, 2016 · - Heavier shafts can be played a bit shorter without creating a swingweight that is too light. - Heavier shafts can add more control to your swing and possibly reduce shot dispersion. - Heavier shafts can provide more vibration dampening for improved feel. Now the Con's... - Heavier shafts may reduce swing speed slightly which may reduce distance.

Apr 3, 2020 · Heavier shafts just feel too heavy to me, simple as that. My numbers are dog poop with anything heavier than 120g in my irons even though I'm 90-91 with a 6i. I just see no point in playing some that heavy when I get about an extra 1/2 club in distance, the dispersion is the same, and they feel better.

Jan 16, 2022 · I found that anything too heavy/too stiff tends to cause impact to move more towards the heel and obviously harder to turn the ball over & draw it. I also felt like i wanted to come more OTT in transition because , like others mentioned, your body/mind knows that this club is heavy and you almost want to use your bigger muscles to help swing it.

May 6, 2016 · Since they are already that way, go try them and see what happens with the results. If there are issues with the feel or the results, try choking up 1/2" and seeing if the results get better or not. If they do, then it might be an indication that the SW is too heavy. Specifically why it is heavier can also influence the answer to that question.
