Loved that this golfer was much closer in handicap than most shown in videos

It was a pleasure to get fit from guys. Shout out to LB and Minnetonka crew!

Thank you for cutting out the driver part 😂

[watsonitis]

This was one of the best and most relatable fitting videos I’ve seen.

I could listen to Larry all day! Great job pal

[joshuak]

Super cool video. Very interesting how nick got such different results from similar irons made by different brands. It showcases how important it is to demo various clubs and get fit. I am excited to do a fitting like that someday in the future. Might have to make the exodus to minnetonka.

Most relatable video on YouTube. Even a 5 hcp can learn from this.

I have been fit by Larry for a driver and putter. His knowledge is second to none, truly one of the best. Good vid!

My man at 6:07 in the background. Literally all of us after the fitter comes back with a new club, but we were striping it while they were away getting it.

Sitting in on these fittings is such great knowledge and content.

Just told my wife that my next fit HAS to be with LB. She is just getting into golf too so we might be seeing the crew soon! Great video as always 🤙🏻

[ZeroisLife]

Literally exactly what I need to watch. I’m about to schedule my fitting after taking some instruction and got fitted for a putter a few months ago at 2nd Swing. Best experience of my life. Cannot wait to get fitted for Irons!

[jeffreylopez]

Great video! Love watching an "average" golfer going through the process. I stop in the MPLS store quite a bit and now I'm tempted to get fit again for some new irons.

[godc]

Great video! had been thinking about getting fit for awhile now and this was the push I needed, just scheduled for Sunday in Wilmington

[manuelhernandez]

That was too 5 BEST vids😂 ever on this channel

[jazzyjay]

Crazy to have been around and playing golf for that long to be a 20 handicap still 😅
You can also tell he’s read some things or watched a few videos. As a fitter, nothing you’ve read online will be relevant in your fitting. As long as you have a good fitter that you trust. Wanting distance, dispersion, forgiveness, and height cannot all come in the same package. Notice how his distance really didn’t change

[davidcole]

Like the video. Good feed back on difference in fitted and non fitted performance.

[drgrzz]

Awesome video. I like seeing a guy like me. Someone striving to be a bogey golfer or better.

Always interesting to see the measurements. I'm just starting with golf but my driving range has one indoor and a bunch of outdoor trackman installations. I was measuring my 5i the other day and I'm just a bit below the clubhead speed of his 7i and I have roughly the same ball speed. My carry though is between 125yards and 145yards with my 5i. So his 7i swings already go further than I can hit my 5i. My smash factor is slightly higher, not sure if that is good or not but my spinrate is somewhere between 4k and 8k. Probably 5.5k average. And my height with the 5i is so much higher than this 7i heights. I think I'm averaging between 60 and 80 ft height. **juding from his before fitting stats**

[jeffwheeler]

With that speed he has alot of potential to drop his cap quick. Must struggle with penalties off the tee and around the greens

[WyattWatson-trth]

Awesome video! Would love to see more just like it!
