“Keep your grooves clean and stay razor sharp” – says Ron Burgundy
Everyone is complaining about ping being dominant but the reality is you’re an enthusiast if you’re watching this most likely, and a lot of people that have the money for new clubs probably don’t even watch youtube and just get fitted with what works best. And that happens to be ping for the avg joe apparently
Love watching these every year. This was my first year as a fitter, and I saw a lot of people fitting into the Elyte for drivers and then TaylorMade for woods and hybrids. The Pings fit a lot of my customers as well but not as many as I'd expect from these results.
Edit: for Irons, my clients have been overwhelmingly fitting into ZXI5's and QI10 HL's.
Our clientele is older, high handicappers which may be why there is variation between us.
Either way love these. Keep em coming!
Old Bro….its Srix-on, not Sir Icksin!!
Can i please ask what are your thoughts on the Qi35 core driver?
So glad you mentioned Calloway Opus wedges. I brought a used one just to fill a gap in my bag.
I had no idea 🤯…
Its Phenomenal!!!
This club makes me look like I hit money shots on purpose…
Cobra not being top 3 is surprising. They have consistently been the longest drivers for the past few years
Lots of useful information in the video. I am not surprised about how Ping dominated, they have had a really good year in all categories other than putters. I just hate the look of their drivers though, get rid of the turbolators. Srixon and Mizuno have also had an excellent year for irons.
I love Thomas Golf clubs, no more damn irons,
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! 🎊🥳🎉
I got the Srixon zxi5 irons fitted from club champion and they were by far the best feeling and performing irons I tried and I tried them all lol
This should be called, what the fitters put more people in due to sales margins.
People don't want to admit it, but PING was dominant in 2025
Why does he say Suh-rixen lol
