Larry Boyle picked up 30 yards of carry, yes, 30 yards of CARRY with only 93 mph of clubhead speed. He switched from an Infiniti Propulsion driver with Harmon Tour Design shaft to a Nakashima HTec head with a Matrix F6M2 shaft. This combo lowered his spin rate a 1,000 rpm’s on average and increased his ball speed 8 mph. Combined with instruction from me to optimize his quality of contact and path into the ball, Larry was hitting it not only further, but much straighter as well.

Larry Boyle picked up 30 yards of carry plus roll at the Bomb Your Driver clinic.
Jack Flatley also had a great day at the clinic, picking up 27 yards off the tee and ended up with the Nakashima HTec 460 in an 11.5 with a Matrix XCon5 shaft over his Cobra L4V with a Diamana Red shaft. With Jack, we brought his launch angle up from 9 degrees to a much better 13.5 degrees. But even more importantly, we brought his clubhead speed up from 89 mph to 99 mph on average, with several swings breaking the 100 mph point! Apart from picking up nearly 30 yards off the tee, Jack cut his shot dispersion from 35 yards to only 16 yards! So, not only is he he hitting it 30 yards further, but he’s also hitting it in the fairway!
- Jack cut his dispersion by more than 50% by switching to a Matrix shaft and doing a fitting with Chuck Quinton.
Jack is now hitting it 265 yards off the tee vs. 238 yards!
Hi,
Im currently swing 110-115 miles and hour (if I try to really cook it I can get it faster), but Im using an off the shelve driver head.
Ive been really working on speed for the past 3 months. I dont think the off the shelve head is doing it for me anymore. I have an x-flex bi-matrix shaft in the driver. I purchased an smt 8.5 degree head, but I havent shafted it yet. I hope its a more true head.
Seems like Im not carrying the ball as far as I should, and Im starting to get frustrated. I plan to book a driver fitting with you in January.
Thanks,
Will Triplett
