Custom Golf Club Fitting Is A Must
Custom golf club fitting should be mandatory to set golfers up right from the start. Especially if you want to lower your golf score and handicap. Set yourself up for success, remove anything that might work against you.
In reality the golf swing and golf is hard enough to master even with the right golf clubs. Having poorly fitted clubs makes it even harder.
Most golfers are striving to build consistency into their game yet they purchase golf clubs off the shelf or one or two clubs at a time. Let’s face it golf clubs are costly. Rather than a test and measure approach why not save as much heart ache up front as you can. Simpy bite the bullet, you will save money in the end by getting it right, up front.
If you truly want to achieve golfing excellence it just makes sense to go easy on yourself from the beginning.
Custom fitted golf clubs from the start give you a greater chance of building a golf swing that works, pure and simple. Poorly fitted clubs simply make a complex game even more complex. Imagine having clubs that are too long, too short, too flexible or grips that simply don’t feel right. Let’s go further imagine the golf club feels wrong, the weight and balance are off too. A putter or driver that does not feel quite right will ruin your game.
Take the time and effort to get a proper assessment. A professional golf club fitter will assess your golf game and ask plenty of questions. Like what is a normal round like, what works, what doesn’t, where are your strengths and weaknesses.
Issues such as do you slice, hook, duff, hit the ball thick or thin or heel the ball. They will assess your golf swing with each club on camera and on the golf course. They want to check where you are having difficulty with particular parts of your game, your golf swing and certain clubs.
They will also take into account your height, weight, hand size, finger length, arm length, and leg length. The golf club fitter will also look at your physiology and posture at address and through the swing.
Assessing your physiology and your swing is done. Now down to the fitting of each golf club. First the driver, then the woods, irons, wedges and the all important putter.
Hitting poorly from the tee can be costly of course. You certainly need accuracy and distance. Then there are the precision clubs your wedges and your putter. Remember you will use your putter at least as twice as much as your driver.
Your putter is the most important golf club in any bag. Your putter could help you lower your score quicker than any other. Choose your putter for feel, line and precision. It is an important decision test it out if you can.
A professional golf club fitting will fit each club to you and your golf swing. Some of the things considered will the grip thickness and length, shaft length, type and flex as well as the club head including size, and loft.
