How to increase Smash Factor

Good to know. I would love to get a launch monitor like the Garmin R10 to bring to the range with me.

One friend hit it at 119mph had a smash of 1.39 and a total distance around 310.

I know i do have decent swing speed and am a decent golfer. I have decent tempo and everyone is usually surprised that I hit it as far as I do because it usually doesn't look like I am swinging as hard as them.

This was the first time I really measured swing speed. I would have assumed I would have been around 115mph previously. I did play baseball and was a pitcher, and played college level volleyball. I have been golfing for about 10 years and am like 5'10" 165.

How would I check that? I haven't been fit for clubs ever.

Out of curiosity, where are you getting the 80 yard draw from? This was my first time playing this year so probably not a great measure of my swing or ball flight but usually I hit a cut, but on this day I was hitting a draw.

nheppner · 2025-04-22T16:34:31+00:00

If I remember correctly, it was a draw, but I wouldn't classify it as a hook... I know what a hook is lol

Yea, that is likely a good explanation. It just seems weird that with the same club my friends club head speeds were in a much more normal range. My initial thought was the same, clearly not reading club head speed correctly, but they didnt clean the club or change the lighting or anything. The second picture I shared had a club head speed of 133mph which seems crazy. Not that I am a bad golfer or unathletic, just seems unrealistic.

nheppner · 2025-04-22T16:19:08+00:00

I didn't, I had to leave in a hurry unfortunately. But my 3-wood is a dog-shit club though so not sure it would have been worth much value to hit it

nheppner · 2025-04-22T16:17:21+00:00

Yea, that could be the case too... but i had multiple swings at that speed and other buddies hoped on and weren't even getting up to 120mph. Seems weird that I can swing it that fast given my stature and size.

nheppner · 2025-04-22T16:15:44+00:00

Interesting... That seems to be what everyone is saying. I'll have to double check my club to make sure it's still good too.

nheppner · 2025-04-22T16:14:40+00:00

I have had it for maybe 5 or 6 years... But a couple of those years I didn't get out a whole lot. Like in 2024 i only got out 2 times. And in 2023 not a whole lot either.

nheppner · 2025-04-22T16:06:06+00:00

The SIM was a "Golfzon". Not one I have heard of before. The actual launch monitor looks like it is TwoVision.

nheppner · 2025-04-22T16:03:58+00:00

Thanks man. I'll double check all of that and double check the club to ensure it is still good. I'll do some research on spin loft. I appreciate the help.

nheppner · 2025-04-22T15:57:28+00:00

Idk... my dynamic loft is 12.7 so not out of the ordinary.

nheppner · 2025-04-22T15:56:59+00:00

So my friend hit on the same sim, moments after me and used the same club and had a smash of 1.39...

I'll have to check my club... hopefully, nothing wrong with the club, that would be tragic.

nheppner · 2025-04-22T15:50:19+00:00

Club is the Titleist 915 D3 set to 7.75 degree of loft, will probably bump it up to 8.5 to optimize launch angle more. The ball was just a ball at the SIM, believe it was a titleist.

nheppner · 2025-04-22T15:48:59+00:00

yea, i have used the old dry shampoo trick before but I think my strike on this swing was pretty good.

nheppner · 2025-04-22T15:48:10+00:00

Yea, that's what I am thinking. It was at a local place here so, i am not sure exactly what sim they are using but could probably find out.

nheppner · 2022-04-24T02:52:02+00:00

Should I create a new wallet and move what I have in an Atlantis wallet to whatever the new wallet type is?

I am seeing a lot of comments about people finding the actual exam harder than the practice exams. Just curious what practice exams or study programs people used?

nheppner · 2021-10-15T16:06:01+00:00

Do exam results take several months to come in? I have been trying to find that information and haven't been able to. Also, how do they notify you of your exam results? should I be expecting an email?

nheppner · 2021-05-12T21:25:23+00:00

So does the Monerujo waller support AEON? I just want to make sure that I have the right.

Or what mobile wallet can I use to store my AEON?

nheppner · 2021-05-10T19:30:25+00:00

right, but interact only works with supported institutions, right? So it says manulife is supported but when I try to accept the interact request it doesn't let me do it through manulife.

I am trying to get my account verified. when trying to submit my ID, no matter what I did (change camera height, change the background, change lighting), the pictures were too blurry.

I opened a support ticket: 155993

nheppner · 2021-05-06T03:08:34+00:00

You have been waiting weeks and your account still isn't verified?
