Custom Fit Golf Clubs

Build a golf club that suits your body and swing

Like every other golfer, your body, your measurements, your arm length, hand size, leg length and muscle strength are uniquely your own. Golf clubs are built to certain standards that will fit the vast majority of people. For the everyday golfer, standard clubs will work very well. Common manufacturing standards say a #3 golf iron will be 39 inches long and each subsequent club in a set will half an inch shorter. But while the length itself may be set the shaft flex [L, A, R, S or XS] for the set might all be the same but different shaft manufacturers can have different specifications for each letter. You can't really look at a set of clubs with an L shaft flex from one manufacturer and be positive it will be the same from another.

So, if you want to be sure your clubs are right every time for you then you need to take the next step and get yourself into a custom fitting.

And here is the neat part. Not only will a custom fitting give you golf clubs that are measured and fitted to both your stature, they will also fit your club swing characteristics!

Note: some manufacturers offer a "custom fitting" service but this is NOT a "custom build".

This custom fitting they do is usually just a method of making what you have already purchased from them in a standard club more suitable for you. All they really do is to bend the head of the club to obtain the correct lie angle for your game. But bending the head will not do a thing to ensure correct shaft length correct and improve your posture. And they can't do anything about the already pre-existing shaft flex. This shaft flex has been described as the "engine" of every golf club and it needs to be set for your game and your swing characteristics. Each of the golf club components [head, shaft and grip] has to be assembled from scratch with you and your measurements in mind!

Custom Fitted Golf Clubs

There are several areas you need to consider when you are having golf clubs made just for your game. Note that these factors will also apply if you are replacing pieces of your existing set. Many golfers learn how to rebuild their own clubs.

Golf club grip

The grip is the only point of contact you will have with your golf club. A grip that is comfortable as well as functional will benefit your game tremendously.

Golf club shaft

The golf shaft has been described as the "engine" of your golf club. It can enhance your game if you choose the proper length but also the proper material.

Golf club shaft flex

Choosing the correct golf club shaft flex is an important part of enhancing your game based on your personal game itself.

Golf club head

The club head is the  component that connects with the ball and transmits the energy you built up to the ball. There are a number of factors to consider when choosing a good golf club head.

Golf club lie

Choosing the proper lie on your golf clubs will add to your ability to hit your shots properly each and every time.
