Disagree totally. Nothing wrong in telling a high handicapper that his backspin is far too high or that he should look to compress to improve AoA. High handicap doesn't relate to low intelligence

Apologies I wasn't suggesting handicap related to intelligence. I just don't get to hung up on numbers. Each to their own tho.

I have been using my swingbyte 2 that arrived on Weds, it provides some really useful data that I can put to use as I look to improve my swing, its already confirmed my AoA is to steep with the driver.

Back on topic, I wouldn't really care what the stats said if I was hitting a 6 iron 212 yards. Christ my 5 wood is only about 210 with a fast enough swing speed to require a Fubuki stiff shaft.

It may not relate to low intelligence, but surely the more technical things like that the high handicapper (including myself) is told, the worse it would make it? We are high handicappers due to our inconsistent swing and such, surely overloading with more technical technique tips would just make it worse?

I wouldnt limit it to high handicappers TBH. Some people love learning the technicalities of the swing, and thrive on implementing them into their game. Others prefer just to empty the head of excess thoughts and trust the swing they've grooved. I prefer the latter, plus it's quite easy for me to empty my head....

I agree. Though lower guys probably have a better awareness of the various attributes too.
But saying 'You need to lower your spin and launch' or 'you are flipping' or 'hit down (or up) more' and here's the evidence can actually work. And when an adjustment is made, the evidence is again there!
Of course, others can see/feel what is happening by the flight, but the technical world is encroaching everywhere nd it's another tool, so if it's available, why not use it (properly and appropriately).

212 yards with a 6 iron and you play off the same as me and I hit a 6 iron about 145, your putting and short game must be rank ?
