A recent study commissioned by Sports Illustrated Golf Group and Golfsmith found that 90% of US golfers may be playing with the wrong equipment for their swings. Sports and Leisure Research Group's study reported in recent GOLF Magazine and Sports Illustrated Golf Plus.
What's the good news? First, to get custom fitted for new equipment, 92% of golfers realized immediate benefits to their game. In addition, 80% of custom-fit golfers hit the ball more accurately and consistently. As a result, the ten guinea pig golfers whose progress was tracked for the first few months with new clubs can be found here.
Is Clubfitting worth it?
As a result, my belief in the value of club fitting has led to my use of the Flightscope Launch Monitor. And also the Mizuno Performance Fitting System at my golf school in Pawleys Island, SC. These computerized measurement devices have raised club fitting to a fine art. Several of my custom-fit students have dropped five strokes per round, gained distance, and now hit the ball much straighter. These golfers can continue to improve their games following their lessons. Yes, they produce better swings under close supervision at my academy; but they need every advantage possible to keep the momentum going once they leave us. Playing with clubs that fit their 'swing DNA' is a huge advantage.
Please leave me a comment below. How was the experience? Did the clubs improve your game? Or if that is still on your bucket list, as one of my students reported.
Free Club Fitting.
We offer FREE clubfitting with our regular-priced schools. Club fitting is only $80 with discounted schools. We will waive the fee if you purchase the clubs. You’re under no obligation – it’s just a good idea to get all your specs if you wish to purchase in the future. I’ll set aside extra time for you. So please let me know in advance if you’d like to do a fitting.
