 Ball spin off driverI recently was at a Ping fitting where they used a Trackman Launch monitor. I went to obtain a driver fitting. They fit me into a Ping G5 Aldila 75s 9 degrees. They used new Pinnacle range balls. Here are the approx numbers.Old Driver: Taylor Made 580xd stock stiff shaft 9.5 degrees loft Ball Speed = 165 Launch Angle = 13.5 degrees Spin Rate = 3558 rpm New Driver: Ping G5 Aldila 75s 9 degrees loft Ball Speed = 165 Launch Angle = 12.8 degrees Spin Rate = 2538 rpm How a lot RPM will a Pro V1x drop versus the Pinnacle range ball? They had me tee the ball high to hit on the top portion of the face. The trajectory was higher than I've been used to however the fitters and great hitters alike claim that a high trajectory is required for maximum distance. What other things can be achieved to reduce the spin rate off the driver? Read more on this topic too much spin on driveris there an simple approach to not have very much spin on my driver. i hardly get any roll if it actually rolls at all. i in fact only put an aldila nv-x stiff shaft in it out of my cobra x-speed. i have not hit any balls with it yet however i hope it helps. tell me if you guys know anything.thank you -matt Read more on this topic too much backspin on drives?i was hitting a number of balls at a netted range. it is 150 max however the net is at a slant. any ways, i hit w/ my driver and the balls would be great height and about 125yards out the ball flys at a higher rate. is this for the reason that it is too much back spin? also does that effect my distance since it is going more up instead of out?Read more on this topic Urethane vs. Surlyn - a difference in driver spin?I was studying the Can issue of Golf Digest and in their "Equipment" section towards the back, they're explaining the differences in spin (RPM) between urethane-covered and surlyn-covered balls. Although there appears to become a difference between the 2 types of balls when struck with an 8-iron from the rough, they also say that Golf Digest testing shows that there's "nearly not difference in driver spin." Is this true? Are we talking about side spin, the spin that causes the hooks and slices that plague the average golfer? That strikes me as surprising given that I'd think that the performance balls (urethane) would have more side spin which would enable the better player to work the ball amongst driver more effortlessly than they would with a surlyn ball.Anybody have any thoughts?
