All good my man.

Have you been enjoying your Mevo? I have a few, plus a + that I got about a year ago.

I love my Mevo! I put it up against a Trackman and it was really accurate on carry and spin on well struck shots. Its dead on the numbers with premium balls but with range balls I used the Flightscope Trajectory Optimizer tool to configure the elevation setting to 1,000 feet to make up for the range ball factor. Where it really shines is on wedge distance getting those shots from inside 120 yards dialed in and working on flighting the ball. I think that has been where I have seen the most improvement is by lowering ball flight across the board by really paying attention to launch angle and overall height.

    • Which was his second hole, yeah. I talked with Mav's coach/instructor last night, ha ha.
    • Yikes! Colin Morikawa withdraws on 11th tee after the practice swing made his lower back twinge.

    • My flop shots are 6-7° down (AoA). Does that answer it? 😄  The longer answer is… You have to be able to do both shots.
    • I hope you don't mind me raising this one from the dead. I got shortgamechef's video access thing for a few months in 2024. I watched his yip fix videos (the general gist is similar to the first video above, but with a lot more detail) and it made a lot of sense. I was working on it in my backyard off a mat for a while and my yippy thing was mostly gone. Aside from anything else, the flop shot using that technique is so easy and controllable. But I got onto a golf course for the first time of the year and found myself by the green on a downslope with the ball sitting down a little in the rough and I was, not to put too fine a point on it, f***ed. Shallow is all well and good from a good flat lie and I understand it, but you can't make that your be all and end all. I still don't know if it's a good idea to use steep all the time or just when you need to. I have a hard enough time with one technique, let alone too.  Just got a pitching skillest lesson with Erik and unless I misunderstood things some, he wants me a bit steeper. @iacas - where do you fall on the steep vs shallow argument and how do you vary it according to need?
