Why get custom fit golf clubs?

The benefit of having your golf clubs custom fitted is that they will be perfectly suited to your measurements and game. Every aspect will be tailored to your game - not just your measurements, but your ball speed and launch. Buying a club which isn’t perfectly fit to you could leave you struggling to reach your potential, and no matter what level of experience, we would always recommend being custom fit before committing to buying. 

87% of all golfers who are custom fitted are able to reduce their handicap by at least 10% (GOLF.com, 2022).

How custom fit works

  • 1. Consultation

    Get started with a friendly conversation with one of our expert fitters to help us get an in-depth understanding of your game, and agree on how we can improve it through our simple 6-step fitting process. 

  • 2. Measurement

    This is the starting point to finding your perfect fit, where we will confirm your height and wrist-to-floor measurements to give us the initial specification of the clubs that will best fit your game.

  • 3. Model selection

    Now that we have the starting specification of your club, we will move into the dynamic part of the fitting, where we will use state-of-the-art launch monitor technology to determine the best head design to improve your game.

  • 4. Shaft selection

    Using the latest shaft optimiser software, we will confirm the best shaft type and flex that will maximise distance and improve accuracy.

  • 5. Final specification

    We will confirm the final specification for your perfect club using our launch monitor technology to analyse ball speed, accuracy, and flight to ensure the correct length, lie, and loft of your custom fit club.

  • 6. Grip

    With 8 out of 10 golfers using the wrong size grip, we believe this to be one of the most important steps of the custom fit process. We will consider size, texture, and feel to ensure you have the perfect grip when you walk out of the door.
