Hide launch data during a feel player's fitting

During head-and-shaft testing for a golfer who quickly manipulates the swing to fit a club, turn off the screen and hide the launch data. Have the golfer hit a draw, a straight shot, and a fade while the fitter reviews the numbers; this gives a truer test of the club without the golfer overriding the result.

Try it

  1. Turn the screen off and do not allow the player to visually see what is going on.
  2. Ask the player to hit a draw, a straight one, and a fade.
  3. Have the fitter digest what's coming up on the data, and do not let the player override the numbers.
