   Notes on video:
   • M3 – 10.5º – weights forward (and CG forward) for lower spin
   • Twist Face – tighter spin rate cluster between toe and heel hits
   • “I don’t hit in the middle of the face!”. “CLINK” – 123/186mph 2100rpm!
   • “Right miss is okay, left miss no!”
   • “Lifty” to outside in backswing… try to keep it low back and wide thru.
   • “Subtle differences in golf swing.”
   • Arched left wrist at top for closed/square clubface at impact.
   • Speed & Control. No full out swing -85-90% of max speed.
   • Cutting ball last 2 years… before drawing ball!
   • Can’t overdo it… open chest to cover ball especially with irons.
   • Swing at 8:40 — 121/180/2108 … smash factor = 1.48 wow!!!
   • Swing at 12:07 with vicious left knee flexing up through impact!!!
   • Swing at 14:00 – Augusta 18th hole… 120/179/2725rpm for a big fade and likely an open face high toe hit too … 🙂

     Ooops… got the last point wrong where I said “… a big fade and likely an open face high toe hit…”.
     Here’s the correction taken from a previous WRX/JD/TM article:
     ““Twist Face” is TaylorMade’s new design that makes the high-toe area of the face more open and more lofted, and the low heel portion more shut and lower lofted. The goal here is to reduce the slice off the low heel and reduce the hook off the high toe. For Dustin, he seemed most excited to get relief on his high-toe miss.”
     So it was a “slice off the low heel” that we saw on the video.
