Interesting concept. Similar programs like Birchbox, Trunk Club, and Barkbox (just to name a few) seem to be growing in popularity, so I'm sure they'll do well. However, at $50 a month, I don't think I'll be subscribing. I'm awfully particular about the golf stuff I use, so I don't think I'll be willing to fork over that much a month on the hopes that I'll like what's inside.

Don't go near a Birdie Box.  I received a series as a gift from my daughter and it sickens me to know that she wasted all that money.  After asking about my size, age, colors, teams, etc., they sent a flask, ugly shirt and a backpack!  Just what the serious golfer wants.  This is the second box and it is  obvious it's all rejects from pro shops or department stores.  Be warned, stay away.

I got a BirdieBox recently. I'll take a picture and post it later if anyone cares, but I wanted to bump it to see if anyone else had any comments in the meantime.

    • I think I remember reading that Wilco Nienaber broke some record for having the fastest hands at around 27mph. His clubhead speed is probably of the order of 130mph or so, so that's roughly 5 times as fast. As Erik said, the math gets very complicated - it's at least a double pendulum system, but also with the "fixed" point moving and all the forces and torques applying to the club and the hands and the rest of the player start to get very complicated. My coach works with a biomechanist and between them they've put out a few books on the physics of the swing and it's hella complicated, but fascinating.
    • Well, it was four years ago, but… yeah.
    • It's still moving, but it's not very fast (which "almost" might cover), and it begins slowing down around P5.5 to P6 in most good players, for a bunch of reasons. The math gets pretty complex pretty fast seeing as how we have two hands, the club is acting on them while we're acting on the club, etc.
    • I was talking to a buddy of mine and he said he stock a GPS tag in his golf bag. Seems like it might be a good idea. What do you all think? Have any of you put one in there?       
    • I am six and a half minutes into this video and honestly don't think I can handle any more of it. I do see some of my swing in his - sucks it inside and gets across the line at the top. He also looks like he comes OTT a little, but is then very in to out. That's probably my cluelessness about the swing showing up though. Did I hear him say he's 15* in to out? That's insane and not something I would think anyone would want to do. I'm surprised he put this out there if his goal is to sell his method to other people, you'd think he'd find someone good who uses it to model it, not himself.
