Golf Club fittings
dialed in performace ...
A club fitting can take your clubs (and game) to the next level. Using Doppler Radar based golf ball launch monitor equipment we can evaluate your swing characteristics and then match them against objectives you have for game improvement.
Scope of a Fitting Session:
Measure your physical (static) grip size, floor to wrist length, lie angle (irons), shaft flex, current swing weights
Using radar, we record your Club Speed, Ball Speed, Ball Spin (V&H), Angle of Attack, Launch angle, Club Face Direction, Shaft Loading Profile and more
We chart Shot Type including Direction, Shape, Height,
We can video your swing from various angles (additional costs may apply)
We ask you about improvement objectives such as Accuracy, Precision, Distance, Feel
We provide a report showing your performance with the current clubs so you can use the gapping data (full iron fitting) and zero in on shot tendencies
The information can tell us if your current set is matched to you or if you might benefit from alterations such as lie angle changes, lengthening/shortening, grip size change, shaft flex change.
What's not part of the session
You won't be swinging dozens of shafts/club heads, we focus on what your current clubs and swing are doing.
If you're searching for a new set of clubs we'll suggest a specification for head type and shafts plus grips.
Under no circumstances (unlike most fitting sessions) will we push you to expensive heads or shafts. In fact we'll provide a list within your swing parameters and let you decide what you want to do (no selling). Armed with the information you are free to shop where ever you like and with the swing information you can seek out a coach knowing you can provide factual info about your current swing.

Shaft Load/Acceleration Profiling
Shot Dispersion & Gapping
The above two images reflect a) a shaft loading for a player with a slower swing speed who loads the shaft just before impact and b) shot dispersions as a result of the shaft showing a tendency to pull shots.
As a result it was recommended that the player look at a stiffer shaft that would keep the shaft loading more uniformly helping to promote the club head being more closed thus helping to straighten or draw the ball direction back towards the middle target line.
In the images below we observed a classic over the top swing with the golfer coming outside in and then adding an open face ... yup.... slice. A correction in swing plane plus grip and a stiffer shaft help turn the swing into a baby fade.
To help with distance a lower lofted club head with higher kick point shaft was suggested so that the launch angle decreased below 15 degress.
