TRUE GOLF FIT by My Golf Spy Review

WHAT MY GOLF SPY CLAIMS


TRUEGolfFit is the first service in the golf industry to use a scientific compatibility matching system to find the best equipment configuration for your unique swing


We compare your swing information with our database of over 45,000 swings and 10,000,000 data points to find your TRUE Fit.


Longer. Straighter. Lower. Guaranteed.  Know the clubs that perform best for you BEFORE you buy. TRUEGolfFit the world leader in golf club fit prediction. 

DOES IT WORK?

I decided to put the My Golf Spy True Golf Fit system to the test. First of all I love the idea of taking all of the data that My Golf Spy has collected and making it relevant to the individual golfer. Unlike their Most Wanted tests that determine which clubs are best for the majority of golfers. The True Golf Fit system is designed to predict what works for you specifically.

In order for their system to determine what’s right for you. You must answer a few questions first so that their software can match you up with club testers of a similar ability. It begins with your Handicap, then your Swing Speed, then your Angle of Attack, and lastly your Swing Tempo. Based on these parameters it will match you to the two best clubs they’ve tested.

I already knew going in that their software wouldn’t work for me. In order to achieve a correct Driver fitting for a golfer like myself there’s one more question that should have been asked. WHAT IS YOUR SHOT SHAPE? If you follow me on my Cobe Life YouTube channel. You would already know that my natural shot shape is a heavy Draw. A bad shot becomes a slice. Having tested many Drivers over the last three years I already knew that anything other than a specifically Draw biased Driver wouldn’t perform as well. Even an adjustable Driver with movable weights, and a Draw biased hosel setting won’t work as well. It only costs $7 to see their results so I did it anyway.

MY RESULTS

TOP PICK BY TRUE GOLF FIT
SECOND BEST PICK BY TRUE GOLF FIT

ON TO THE SIMULATOR

In order to be totally fair about my presumptions I headed straight to my local Golf Town and had them tape up those two Drivers. I also had them tape up a couple of specifically Draw biased Drivers as well. Can you guess which Drivers consistenyly performed better for me? If you guessed the Draw biased Drivers then you would be correct.

I hit an average of 18 yards further with the Draw biased Drivers, and was an average of 14 yards closer to center with a far tighter dispersion. Something else that isn’t factored into their equation is the set up of your current gamer. Although it wouldn’t have affected my fitting process. A friend of mine tried out their True Golf Fit system as well, and it definitely affected his results.

He currently games a Callaway XR16 Driver with a Regular Flex Fujikura Speeder Evolution 565 shaft that has been cut down an inch. He routinely swings that particular Driver at around 96mph. This places him in the Medium Swing Speed category. He also generates far more Spin than he would like because he has a Downward Attack Angle. The True Fit System selected the Ping G400 LST as his number 1 choice. The idea of testing a Low Spin Driver had never occured to him before because I don’t suggest Low Spin Drivers to anyone who swings below 105mph. We were still intrigued by the idea because we figured that the Low Spin might counteract his high Spin swing, the way a Draw biased Driver counters my Fade. Well that just wasn’t the case. He was unable to swing that particular club at anything more than 92mph. At that speed the ball just falls out of the sky with the LST. He tried a few other Drivers including a Taylormade M2 and was able to swing those at 97mph quite easily.

CONCLUSION

Obviously the My Golf Spy True Golf Fit system isn’t for everyone. If you hit your drives anything but straight your results won’t be precise. If you have been professionally Fit for your current Driver than your numbers might tell an inaccurate story to the My Golf Spy True Golf Fit software. I’m hoping that over time their software will be updated and appeal to a larger number of golfers. I’m a fan of what My Golf Spy is about, and their goal to get the best equipment for you in to your bag. A lot of what I do is for that exact same reason, only I am more focused on the Beginner Golfer. For that reason the True Golf Fit system isn’t something I would suggest you put your trust in until you have a typically straight and consistently repeatable swing.

Looking forward to Cobe Life in 2019

There is much more on the way!

2018 was a great year for Cobe Life. It saw the official launch of Cobe Life on YouTube. The Cobe Life Golf page on Facebook has grown quite rapidly. Cobesports on Instagram has garnered some serious interest as well. As I’ve developed new and more advanced video and sound editing techniques, the quality of the Cobe Life videos have improved significantly. All of this has encouraged me to take on far greater projects in 2019.

For those of you that have shown increased interest in my Sports predictions, product and course reviews, and Beginner Tips you needn’t worry about losing any of that in 2019. I will continue to produce quality content that’s similar to what you’ve come to expect. What I’m most excited about, and hopefully you will be too, is the new content that’s on the way.

A few of the new additions you can expect to see in 2019 are:

  • FULL GOLF COURSE HOLE BY HOLE VIDEO AND BLOG REVIEWS
  • THE COBE LIFE CUP AMATEUR GOLF TOUR
  • THE FIRST SEASON OF THE YOUTUBE BIRDIES & BOGEYS WEB SERIES
  • THE SEASON LONG TAYLORMADE PROJECT A BALL REVIEW
  • THE SEASON LONG WEDGE VS CHIPPER CHALLENGE
  • THE GTA FISHING DAY SERIES
  • THE WEEKLY COBE LIFE SPORTS TOP 8

2019 is a pivotal year

When I made the decision to make Cobe Life my primary endeavor back in June 2017. I gave myself a 3 year window to turn it into something substantial. Now although the Cobe Life platforms have grown, they aren’t at a level that gets significant interest from sponsors or advertisers yet. It’s because of this that 2019 will also see the launch of the Cobe Life Patreon website. In order to continue to bring you the quality content you’ve come to expect I’m going to have to make some of it exclusive to my most loyal supporters. The largest project I will be undertaking this year is the Birdies & Bogeys web series. Now my plans are to make each episode free to watch on the Cobe Life YouTube channel. Outtakes, behind the scenes content, bloopers, and how each episode was made will most likely appear on the Patreon site. My top tips for each Fantasy Football week will be reserved for the Patreon site as well. I will also have special product giveaways that only Patreon supporters will qualify for. Of course the content you have already come to expect across the various platforms won’t change. In fact, with enough support through the Patreon site I’m hoping that my regular content will improve.
