I have tried the Pinnacle Gold Distance and they felt like rocks.  Mishits were painful.  I have tried the Srixon AD333s and Softfeels and enjoyed both.  The Bridgestone xFIXx were also very good.  I even got the xFIXx to check up nicely.  I did play well with the Pinnacles, but ouch!

Yesterday I lost a Penta TP about 2 yards into the left rough but couldn't find it. I did find a Pinnacle Gold Precision in yellow. Having not used one before I tee'd off with it on the next hole and it was shorter than my Bridgestone e6's, my old AD333's and my current Penta TP's. My second shot was nice but rather unremarkable. My pitch shot in from 100 yards normally bounces and stops on the green with the AD333's and the Penta's but the e6's normally shoot through the back. The Pinnacle shot through the back too.

I chucked it back in the woods for someone else "happy found treasure moment"

    • Eh. Do your hips back when they swivel like he demonstrates? Or do they tend to go forward as they rotate?
    • Uh, that's not what happened. I'm highly dubious about how your results would work going forward, you showed nothing about your setup, etc. I trust the physics (your 3 dB over a meter is off substantially) and sound engineers over claimed "good" results.
    • I actually really like the video. I feel like it speaks to my own issues of hip movement (lunge towards the ball). I think he also presents a very good and detailed explanation of the why from biomechanical perspective, not forcing the clubs in position and instead let it work a proper planar path by providing it space (hip swivel) the most efficient way. As far as tech speak/catch phrases etc., that some may not like, it doesn't bother me and even necessary. For eg., the spiral line sounds like it is the same thing as a kinematic chain, but directionally specific along with the set of muscles joints it engages. If the club is not dynamically aligned to the 'spiral line' it will force other compensation like locking joints, etc. That's simple logic, and from my perspective not brought up enough. Good stuff.
    • Thanks! it was a fun experiment and I hope is going to be useful for people that like to go down the rabbit hole like i do but can't afford a launch monitor or even a cheap speed meter. Of course I'm glad the results were positive, even better than I spected, but it is funny to see that only you took the time to post after the results were given, the only one in the thread that was open minded about the idea. The other posters that daily brought down the idea without proper arguments or proof, disappeared after been confronted with actual data. Maybe they are testing this by themselves and are in shock that they are getting the same results as me!     
    • It would certainly be a good thing if more people would at least give walking the course a chance, but "great crime" is awfully melodramatic.  On the Faxon end, I think he's probably just speculating that these guys might be new to golf. That position when teeing up the ball normally suggests that. It shouldn't be too much of a surprise that newbies would be riders.
