 If I make the statement, golf is hard, I think it's fair to say we should all agree in the comments section below. Will that, yes Andy, we agree with you. The thing is, I also believe that we as golfers make it as hard as we possibly can. I'm going to show you what I mean by that. Ac mae'r 7 iron, mae'n cefnwys 1,20 gram o'r sgaf i'r cyfnwys. Y rhefyd, mae'n cyfnwys yn y clwb, mae'n cael ei ddweud o'r cyfnwys i'r cyfnwys i'r cyfnwys, yn y fwynghau, ac mae'n ddweud o'r ddweud o'r cyfnwys i'r cyfnwys i'r cyfnwys i'r cyfnwys i'r cyfnwys. But I'm starting to question that a little. This is a 7 iron with a 40 gram light graphite shaft in it. Huge difference in weight, but what actually happens in terms of the difference in performance. That's the question I'm raising in today's video, I've got some real interesting answers. Okay, so not only is there a huge difference in terms of the weight of the shaft in terms of the flex of the shaft. iaf, dwi'n ddweud 3.25 oes o oeddech chi ddweud o'r ddech chi, o holl�beth o'r hawa i ddweud o'r hollwch. Mae'n 36.25 o o hollwch yn y 7 iron o'r hwnnw, o'r graffaitei o'r hollwch yn y 37 o o oeddech chi o'r cyffredin a'r hollwch y CBS Tor Steel. Da i'r cwestiwn i'n gwneud o'r gweithio, ar y cwm ni'n gwneud i chi'n gwneud o'r rhan o'r rhan o'r rhan o'r llwyll o hyffredin yn y rhan o'r hollwch. Fy fwy fyddo, rwy'n gweithio bod ymlaen o'r cyfrifio sy'n cyfrifio ar y sgwm, ac yn ymddangos i, rwy'n gweithio bod maen nhw'n gweithio'n cael llwyllog 40 g o'r llwyllog sy'n cael llwyllog sy'n cael llwyllog sy'n cael llwyllog ffyrddol, i fy nghylch i'r 120 g o'r llwyllog. Yn mynd i'n gallu bod yn eu cyfeilio'r llwyllog sy'n cyfrifio'r llwyllog. Yn cael llwyllog, rwy'n gweithio'n gweld eich cyfrifio'r llwyllog yma, 120 gram o'r llaw, ond mae'n gweithio'r llaw o'r llaw i'w ddweud y llwyddoedd a'r llwyddoedd o'r gweithio'r gweithio'r gweithio. A'r hyn o'r llaw o'r llwyddoedd o'r llwyddoedd o'r llwyddoedd o'r llwyddoedd o'r llwyddoedd o'r llwyddoedd, yn ymgyrchol, yn ymgyrch. Felly, rwy'n gwneud y 7-9 o'r 8485 o'r hwn, o'r 120 gram o'r llwyddoedd, rwy'n byth os mae ar freedomau llaw o dweud o beth, ar hal y rien ti yn bant yn cyrraedd.

Felly rwy'n hybl atebstaethod arna, y gallwn y gallwn ni'n dweud hwnnw i ddweud y 40 grwm'n chath, ond gan un o'r llwydd yn gallu'r ddechrau, yma gan y gweithio'r llwydd, ac mae'n gwiswch yn ei bod yn eistedd yn ymddangos ei gofgol. Mae'r llaw ddweud yma, mae'n ddweud i ddweud yma. I'm all of a sudden just for three-quarters of an inch, I'm a lot close to the ball than I would expect to be with a seven-iron. And what happens is subconsciously I swing the club a lot lighter. What that also then does is my tempo and rhythm just slows down, my breathing slows down, everything becomes at a much slower pace. And what I've said to Hannah off camera is I can't believe that like I said subconsciously everything just becomes so much more rhythmical. The timing becomes better, the strike becomes better. But what happens in terms of performance? What does this tell us? Does performance become better? I feel like I only else swing in this at the minute. So let me start by telling you that this shaft is in a ladies golf club but sent to us for some other testing that we're about to do later on today. It is in the new tailor-made clear range which is a superb set of ladies golf clubs. And like I said there's a real interesting video to follow. But I picked up this club to have a go myself earlier this morning. I was impressed with the way things happened. Like I said tempo changed. I seem to be hitting down the middle. I seem to be swinging very easy indeed and performance seemed good. We hooked it up to GC3. The performance numbers suggested it was doing pretty good as well. We then go and get the other seven-iron from another range with a 120g shaft in. And all of a sudden questions are being raised yet again. How much harder is it to swing with that 120g shaft than it is to swing with this 40g shaft? And I, and maybe you, making a huge mistake by ignoring this kind of thing. We're going to take it out on the golf course next and I just want to see in reality what happens. Can I hit the ball as consistently as I have done inside? And then I'll reveal that dry ball data and a big surprise for you. Right, so out here on the course of Cardin Park I want to find one thing and that's can I take the form, the performance that I got out of these golf clubs or the shaft at least from inside out here on the golf course in reality. Because if I can, then there's a real question mark over what shaft I would always use compared to a 40g light shaft that is also three-quarters of an inch shorter than my normal. Now I normally leave dry ball data until the very end, but I think it's an opportune moment to throw it up now. We've come at you to lay these two because we're 146 from the flag, which is perfect for this seven iron. In fact, dry ball data suggested that there is not a great deal to split these in two in terms of how they perform distance wise because ultimately one hit the ball a little bit higher in terms of the launch conditions. It also spun a little bit more, which is this caleia iron and the other, like I said, was lower spinning, lower launching and a little bit longer. But the consistency from the caleia was the bit that impressed me and it's that ability to swing the club with a little less effort, a little more concentration on timing and rhythm and tempo that produced far more consistent results than I would ever expected with a 40g light shaft in hand. I'm amazed at how steady these were. So much so, we're also filming another video of a full bag of these things from putter through to driver with 40g shafts in. That's also extremely interesting. I think it should just stop very briefly and talk about the actual product that I'm using. That's this tailor-made caleia range and like I said, we're going to play a round or nine holes at least with a full set. It's essentially a game improvement iron, sort of thick top line and a wider sole. It's a really good performing game improvement style iron. It does the job extremely well. The loft on this head is 32 degrees, so much more like the sort of traditional lofts that we would be associated with 7 iron width. And like I said, overall just performs incredibly well. I just want to go back to that previous hole. I ended up at it in a second shot because it was at 146 on the rangefinder and that was on the limit in terms of the dry ball data we'd collected. So I kind of like just forced that first one a little bit down the left and it went left and long as well. So there's clearly distance in these if you want to force the issue. But that is totally against the grain of what I would be trying to do in terms of playing golf with this kind of setup. The second shot I hit was again going back to that concentration that I've waffled on about, which is concentrating on tempo and timing. The ball finished pin high. The ball didn't deviate in terms of left or right, which is a straight shot. And I think that's what you've also got to sort of tell yourself consistently to make sure you understand what it is you're trying to do with this shaft in hand. You certainly can't or shouldn't be want to try and go after shots. And it teaches you a great deal of, well it teaches you a lesson really about concentrating, like I said, on that timing. Well I think that's, I don't need to see any more. That's another iron straight down the middle of the fairway. No deviation in terms of ball flight. So what have I learned from today's video? Well I think that I hope you've learned as well is that never dismiss anything. This is a ladies club essentially with a 40 gram light flex shaft in it. It shouldn't be in my hands but it is. And it's performed as good as I've ever tested out here on the golf course. And that's largely because I think that I've found the centre of the clubface more often than not. And I've achieved that by the fact that tempo timing rhythm has been key to my swing. And also maybe that shorter shaft has meant there's greater control and therefore I'm finding the centre of that clubface a little bit more. I don't know what the video started off being. I literally hid these things for perhaps a bit of a laugh early on in the this morning and realised perhaps I'm not taking these as serious as I should have done. So if you're a man out there that's considering looking at a new set of irons, once a bit of help with launch, wants to concentrate on just a nice slow smooth swing, then all I can advise is when you next go for your custom fit, ask can you try something down the lighter end of the spectrum and perhaps a graphite shaft. And just see how your club performs in your hands with that. I think a great deal of assistance with that lighter shaft. It certainly hasn't affected my performance one bit today. In fact, perhaps just the opposite. Right, as ever, let me know your own experiences. Have you found the same or have you found different? Guide your fellow golfers by putting some constructive feedback down below. And I'm pretty much done for the day. A gorgeous day here at Cardin Park. Thank you for watching and I'll see you all soon.
