I was impressed with their honesty, really.

Really neat though, I was wondering why I was pulling the ball so badly, and it turns out I have a negative face angle and negative swing path (both about -2 degrees). This meant a square club face, but swinging outside-in and directly to the left at contact. My driver attack angle was also negative, meaning I am swinging down on the ball not up, which means mis-hits on the top of the face and the occasional pop fly. I was swinging around 105+mph and hitting driver about 200 yards (all carry), so it made sense.

Those 2 things (straight pull on the irons, pop fly driver) add about 10 strokes to my game, so if I can correct them (in theory) I should be breaking 80 this year.

Of course, I look forward to now forgetting how to putt or use my wedges lol.
What was your spin rate and launch angle on the driver? At 105mph...and Calgary elevation you should be closer to 270yrds+ if you can get the spin rate below 3000rpm and your launch angle down to 11degrees. Also the $10 can of foot spray to see where you hit on the clubface should be in the bag. It's a good thing to have that speed, just gotta get it working
