New set of Custom Fit clubs for Christmas?
"I'm not good enough to get custom-fit" is the refrain of so many golfers who buy their irons off the rack. Convinced their swing inconsistencies override the potential benefits of clubs built just for them, these modest souls don't allow that sometimes the chicken came before the egg. Fitters say the reason a lot of people hit it sideways is because they haven't been custom-fit. Trying to figure out the swing with clubs whose length, weight, lie angle, shaft flex or grip size don't match the body encourages players to make unnatural compensations that prevent them from developing proper mechanics.
"If a shaft is too stiff for a player, he'll hang back on his right side to get the ball airborne," says Randy Henry, co-founder of Henry-Griffitts, a pioneer of interchangeable head-shaft fitting systems. "And if the length and lie angle are off, then their posture is doomed from the start."
"The higher the handicap, the more necessary it is for that player to get fit," says Bob Van Sweden, TaylorMade's 2009 national clubfitter of the year.
Only during a complete fitting are factors such as face angle, launch angle, spin rate, ball speed, attack angle and club path scrutinized to discover the head-shaft combination that optimizes distance and consistency. Plus, an experienced fitter will likely recognize swing flaws stemming from ill-fitted equipment and consider intangibles like a player's level of fitness and tempo.
Often I see golfers get tired at the end of a fitting and start to stand more upright, This reflects what likely happens on their back nine. One solution is to put slightly longer shafts in their shorter irons.
Another of the most overlooked problems of buying off the rack is set makeup, When I fit, I use the launch monitor to get the person into the mix of irons, hybrids and fairway woods that gives them the exact right distance gaps. Sometimes getting custom-fit can be cheaper because I won't sell people long irons they don't need.
Many fitters believe it's worth measuring launch conditions once a year, like going to the doctor for a checkup. You likely won't need new irons, but if your swing has evolved significantly, the specifications might need to be tweaked.
At the end of the day what a fitting gives you is peace of mind, that when you hit a bad shot it's nice to know 100 percent of the problem was down to the swing.
Book your fitting now and get your brand new clubs for christmas!
Why get custom fitted?
John Knock did here he is with his new PING G30 Driver.
He even said "I could see the difference straight away" John enjoyed the fitting and by trying some different shafts suggested by Josh he ended up gaining 20 yards from his original driver a well worth investment.
Good luck John! I will be keeping an eye on your handicap in the near future!

Putter Sale!
As the winter is coming and the conditions of the greens change it is a good idea to have a different putter in your bag. For the slower greens a heavier larger putter will create more forgiveness and more power off the face resulting in better lag putts and more positive short putts. Why not have a look at our putter range? Our putters are currently 20% OFF so whaat are you waiting for?
