Nothing like waking up exited for Ryder Cup weekend and to see the US down 0-4! Hopefully we can pull off 3 of the 4 matches this afternoon. I don't think there is any stopping Fitz right now however.

For what it's worth, here are my fittings Les.  |

For what it's worth, here are my fittings Les. Yeah very similar to my distances now but I’ve had to change to powerhouse because I’ve concentrated on timing and swing plane because of the erratic tempo on Xbox. I could have gotten those distances on rhythm but it would mean dropping my figures on the timing/rhythm anyway, at least the way I’ve done it I can just go back to rhythm archetype and rediscover my accuracy if I’m facing a shorter course that requires it but most of the courses I’m playing on Kinetic have been pretty long and that’s where I’ve been struggling. Some of the courses on CC last year we’re quite long as well I felt there’s a big difference playing a par four that requires a 4 iron second shot to a 7 iron at least mentally. Just going to give it a try with this archetype for a couple of weeks and see how things go. |

Live play. Ladder. Something you might be interested in?
Look out for an announcement Sunday to see if we can get enough interest.

I also switched back to powerhouse on the Xbox. I found that I was missing the same with rhythm woodsman and sculptor so I might as well get it as far down there as I could. My driver stats are very similar to yours, though I use just timing on two fittings and power +12 on one. I believe I’m at 87 power (plenty for most courses) and 78-80 timing.

My driving distance is more than adequate most of he time, so I prefer to stick with the timing assistance that rhythm includes. |

But loading up your driver with power fittings still reduces your timing and swing plane at the expense of distance your not benefitting either way HB did say there’s no meta. I think I’m at a point now where each fitting will make marginal gains on one thing and reduce others if I’m on a tight course I can just go back to rhythm with its reduced distance and better timing and swing plane. Those are my thoughts anyway |

Those are my thoughts anyway Yes, I hear what you're saying. My thinking process was that most of the time drives do not require such great accuracy. If I'm 10 yards left of centre with my drive it's probably just fine, whereas approach shots require more precision. On that basis I can afford to load the driver with more power for distance, because on the whole I don't find the reduced timing and swing plane causes many missed fairways. |

I wouldn't even turn it on if I was Team USA at the moment

Those are my thoughts exactly irons need to be more accurate especially the wedges as they’re generally regarded as the scoring clubs Edit: even though I’ve taken my gap wedge out to put in my 3 iron 🤣 |
