DRIVER MINIMUM SPEED AND LAUNCH CONDITIONS FOR 300 YARD DRIVES! Easy drills to help you do it too!

Very interesting and informative video. I'd love to see similar type videos for various irons in the bag as well

My brain won’t comprehend how a tap of the ball from the dirty dog goes 300 and a full swing rocket goes 285 for me.

My speed is 125.6 clubhead avg with an 8 degree Driver, though I have a 3400 spin rate.... Sooooo not good...

tell tail sign that i'm not gonna hit 300 yard is when i look down after a hit and the tee is still in the ground!!! You get so accurate of a swing, its actually a bad thing!!

I think I’m in dire need to getting in front of a launch monitor. I have no idea what my swing speed is. I know I need at least a stiff flex but that’s about it. I’d like to know my swing speeds, launch and distances with all my clubs

105 min needed...ill have to stick with 240 total .

I dunno about these machines sometimes. I'm a solid 5 handicap that plays for money and in a lot of events and tournies. The number of guys that actually carry it 275+ on the course is very small. The average single digit handicapper carries it around 220. Theres a chart out there that shows this.

103 mph 153mph ball speed 18 launch hitting 7up 1800rpm just cracked 300yrds for first time this week woohoo 🙌

Back when I was hitting way down and with a poorly fitted club a good contact drive at 108mph would fly 240

Interesting that you think a 106 mph swing on “other devices” equates to 110 on Foresight. If I’m swinging 115 on a Garmin G80 what you expect Foresight say?

No mention of the golf ball effect.? Different type of golf ball?

My new goal 150mph.

This video makes me feel sick, I swing it 115 and can’t hit it past 285-290 with pretty good delivery.

This is fascinating! Thanks for this!

Problem is 300 yards is 274 meters lol...

This is a fantastic topic that hits home for 90+% of golfers out there. I'd love to see this done with 2-3 "off the shelf" drivers as opposed to you custom building something. Many won't get fitted, so at least seeing it can be done with something we get at Dicks or the Galaxy would be awesome!

Wow! Took Matt 2 shots to dial it in on the distance needed! That is amazing, does not matter how far you can go, if I can control my distance like him I am set. You guys don’t need a golf robot you have a Matt for that 😂. You guys do amazing videos, thank you for that. The right equipment helps but only if you know what to do with it. Coming there to get my next set of clubs fitted and continue watching your videos to learn how to use it. Thank you thank you thank you.

I remember something like 5-6 years ago, Mark Crossfield did a similar test. He hit 4 degree down vs 4 degree up, and the carry difference was 24 yds. It was a big eye oppener at the time for me, and its nice to have that verified here by your test also!

My SS on trackman is 110-112mph and I only carry it 260 LOL

According to Shawn Clements Golf Channel, his daughter Savanah can hit 300 yard bombs with only 100 mph club head speed. Of course they are using a simulator, so they probably have roll out and sea level optimized. Who knows? What your thoughts?

Im about 110 on trackman but really struggle to swing up accurately.

Late to the party but this is an excellent video

Very, very informative

👍✅👏👏✅👍

At 70 I’m lucky to hit it 210 wish I could get 30 yds back

Bro really “dialled it down” to my upper end swing speeds.

Excellent video. Really valuable info. Thanks.

Alot of amateurs (myself included) feel like they are lashing the ball and its going no where. They should check their dynamic loft. Mine was way
up at impact on trackman i.e. 25/26 degrees which meant i was doing a kind of flipping action at impact which was also giving tons of spin. real bad for distance.
I solved by setting up with my hands further forward at address with the driver (almost kind of like a forward press) like alex noren , and this helped immensely as at impact the
club was then delofted in line with a 14/15 degree launch (dynamic loft).

Dial it back to 300😂

Very funny. You declare my every day spin and launch numbers as rare 😂

I was swinging up to 110 at 14 hitting it 275 yards

Maybe you can post what is considered optimal numbers for a driver in terms of spin and launch angle. I look around the net and ask many people in the golf industry and it all seems to very.

My local range recently put in top tracer monitors. It's been really interesting seeing the ball speed not necessarily resulting in longer distances. I'll hit one 165-170 mph ball speed but low off the face, low launch angle and spinny, ends up 260-270. Then I'll swing easier with a 13-14 degree launch angle, high on the face at 155 mph and it goes 305. Optimizing ball flight > ball speed.

My club speed is usually around 125-130 mph and I get 320-325 carry with a Taylormade M1.

I average 155mph ball speed and about 270 total distance... It really annoys me. Out of 100 balls at least half will be terrible and the rest will be good and maybe two or three will be 300 plus. It makes me want to quit because I can't do it everytime no matter how much I practice or want to I just can't find consistency.

I hit my G425 Max 10.5 about 260, but it balloons out, don’t have my spin numbers but I highly suspect the spin is way too high. Are my only options to loft down on the club? Maybe a different shaft will help?

Hi guys Leonard here so I currently have a unfitted driver Cobra F8+ with the Adila NV green X stiff shaft 65g +- settings is 9.5 degrees. I am seeing on flight scope X2 club head speed average of 108mph, spin over 3000rpm carry of 255 yards and total distance of 276yards, angle of attack averages 2.2 degrees upwards and dynamic loft averages at 15.6 degrees.
I definitely feel the head and shaft doesn't work for me and when I hit the ball above the equator I see total distance at 285yard range with spin around 2700-2900rpm.
Any recommendations you would make based on these numbers.Of course I most likely need a proper fitting.
All my clubs are unfitted and I'm shoot anything between 75 and 82 on average out on the golf course.

Can you make the Foresight screen stay by the golfer and show a shot tracer instead of “flying” with the ball?

What is the least amount of effort and still hit it that distance? Moe Norman. In his mid 60's.

100 swing speed with 1.5 efficiency?

Hit 318 yards today
175 mph ball speed
23 launch!!!
Driver set to 11.5 degrees

Tomorrow I’m setting my td ls to 12.5

Remember, over half the PGA Tour doesn't hit the ball 300 yards

Great content. So concise. Probably one of the best golf vids I’ve seen 👍🏻

Sounds like my 125mph swing should be going a lot further...

Great video very interesting 🧐
What the max I should be getting with between 90/95 mph swing speed

Great info guys. I’m a senior with 92mph club speed, what could or should I be achieving with the optimal launch/smash factor conditions? Thanks

My ss is around 100. My carry is around 240-250 with around 270-280 total when everything squares up.

This is interesting. I’m not really a golfer but I’ve played baseball my whole life. I was at a simulator today and my club head speed was consistently 115-120 mph. My drives were going 265-280 (with the roll). I assumed people who drive the ball 300+ must have a much higher club head speed. I’m shocked to realize that I already swing fast enough. I will start paying attention to these other numbers to see what I’m doing wrong.

I’m super perplexed, my gaming speed is about 105-110, but my longest carry at the range is only 245 with ball speed at around 160, launch 13 degrees. Feels like I’m leaving a good 30+ yards of carry on the table

This gives me hope. Im in between 105 and 110mph but only carrying 250/260
