Mark Crossfield

Coach, famously hard to impress

“so many more people should be gaming the light”

A great new addition he thinks far more golfers should consider, provided the extra club speed from the lighter build actually converts to ball speed for them.

+ the facts · 3 pros · 2 cons
  • +Lighter build genuinely lets slower swingers move the club faster
  • +Still very stable thanks to the fixed (lighter) back weight
  • +Feels good, a needed option in a big-brand lineup
  • −Lighter mass behind the ball can cancel out the speed gain, so it must be tested not assumed
  • −Silver accent lines won't suit everyone

For: Golfers with lower swing speeds who test faster with a lighter club and see it convert to ball speed
