If you haven’t bought any new outerwear in the last few years, then try on some of the new arrivals in the shops. Thinner, lighter, warmer, drier. It seems impossible, but it’s not just golf balls that are benefitting from advances in technology. Golf’s a great game. But it’s better when you can make an easier shoulder turn. It’s better when your muscles are warmer. And it’s a lot better when everything is dry.

The “Gear Effect” on you
Last week we talked about the impact of different strike zones on the spin rate and therefore distance of your tee shots. We mentioned the “Gear Effect”.
Here’s how “Gear Effect” works. If you strike the ball on the sweet spot, then you won’t experience any effect. Hitting above the sweet spot reduces backspin.
If you strike the club face slightly above the sweet spot, the club will twist backward around the Center of Gravity. The “Gear Effect”’ is that it will produce the opposite effect on the ball; adding topspin, which reduces the amount of backspin on the ball.
The diagram on the right, highlights why this is known as the “Gear Effect”. As the large gear rotates anti-clockwise, it sends the small gear clockwise.
Reducing the spin rate on the tee shots of most of our golfers by just 400rpm would unlock 10 – 15 extra yards.
Book your tee shot evaluation
Reach out now and let’s see whether a quick evaluation might unlock a lot of extra distance WITHOUT you having to make an equipment purchase.
What are you most looking forward to, as you arrive?
We’re trying to gain a better understanding of what’s important to our golfers. Last week we had a simple question relating to social golf vs competitive golf. If you missed it and want to answer,
