What is the longest driver in 2015?
Big Bertha Alpha 815 Double Black Diamond
The Last Word: Not just the longest name in golf, our test results suggest Big Bertha Alpha 815 Double Black Diamond is also the longest driver in golf for 2015.
What should my ball speed be with driver?
TrackMan Combine Averages The standard assumption for ball speed comes from the TrackMan Optimizer. For the driver, a club speed of 94 mph, attack angle of 0 degrees, and optimized carry results in a ball speed of 137 mph. For a 6-iron, a club speed of 80 mph and mid-trajectory results in a 110 mph.
Is 160 mph ball speed good?
If you don’t hit the ball in the sweet spot, have too much spin, too low a launch, etc., you will end up well short of your potential maximum driver distance. A 160 mph ball speed is about the Tour average and they are only carrying the ball 271 yards under absolute ideal conditions.
Does a dent in a driver affect it?
The dent in the driver’s head can be small and have zero impact on the performance of the club. However, if the dent is large, it can impact some of the internal features and the aerodynamic capabilities of the driver. This is where you will probably end up having to look at a new golf club.
What does optimalflight mean for a golf ball?
OptimalFlight was used to illustrate results for a 150 ball speed golfer who launches a golf ball at 14* launch angle with different amounts of spin. 1. Ball Flight A has too little spin and causes the ball to have a flatter ball flight and low landing angle (30.9 degrees). As a result, this flight spends less time in the air.
Which is better optimal flight a or B?
OptimalFlight’s ball flight picture makes it easier to visualize what’s happening. Ball Flight A (regular flex shaft, high spin) has a higher apex and lands steeper than Ball Flight B (stiff flex shaft, lower spin). Ball Flight B produces near optimal total distance results (near peak of the Max ROLL Zone).
Which is the best ball flight for carry?
Ball Flight D has too much spin and causes the ball to land steeply (47.3 degrees). 3. Ball Flight B is the optimal result for carry and lands at 40.4 degrees. 4. Ball Flight C produces the longest total distance drive of 276.6 yards (251.3+25.3).
What should optimal flight be in no wind?
For example, Fredrik Tuxen, the inventor of TrackMan, says it should be 40 degrees or less. In a no wind situation, OptimalFlight says Bubba Watson’s drive actually has a little steeper landing angle than the ideal 35-42 degree range. This result is not surprising because of how much harder and higher the ball is being hit.
