A golf club fitting is a process of analyzing a golfer’s swing, physical characteristics, and playing style to determine the optimal club specifications for their game. This includes factors such as club length, shaft flex, grip size, lie angle, and loft. A properly fitted set of clubs can significantly impact performance, leading to greater distance, improved accuracy, and more consistent ball striking.
Historically, golfers often played with standard, off-the-shelf clubs. However, as technology and understanding of the golf swing have advanced, the importance of customized equipment has become increasingly clear. The potential for improvement offered by personalized club fitting can translate to lower scores and a more enjoyable experience on the course. Optimizing equipment to match individual swing characteristics can help address specific weaknesses and maximize strengths, leading to more confident and efficient play.
