Question about meter speeds ...

  If I have clubs with a 3.5 meter, and I buy balls with a 3.0 meter, is my swing is timed to the 3.5 meter clubs? Inversely, if I have balls with a 3.5 meter and clubs with a 3.0 meter, then my swing is the longer meter ... 3.5 from the balls? Or if I have clubs with a 4.5 meter, and balls with a 3.5 meter, my swing is timed to the clubs at 4.5? Right?

  Thanks in advance.

  From my experience you can add the 2 numbers together to get the combined meter speed. I don't believe the meter speed corresponds to a linear calculation, but the larger the combined number the slower the meter speed.

  example 1: clubs 3.5 meter speed + ball 3.0 meter speed = 6.5 meter speed

  example 2: clubs 3.5 meter speed + starter ball 0 meter speed = 3.5 meter speed

  ... and WGT rarely if ever confirms any question posed in the open forum.

  Ok, since you're the only one who answered, thank you. I'll assume this to be correct. Much appreciated.
