What types of golf club fittings can you get?

Club Fitting FAQs

Not all club fittings are the same. Depending on your needs and budget, you can choose to fit your entire bag or focus on the clubs that impact your game the most.

Below are the most common types of fittings. What they cover and why each one matters.

Full Bag Fitting

This is the most comprehensive fitting experience. It includes:

Driver
Fairway woods
Hybrids
Irons
Wedges
Putter

Best For: Golfers getting a brand-new set, serious players, or anyone who hasn’t been fit in several years.\

What You’ll Get: Gapping analysis, full shaft optimization, lie/loft adjustments, grip fitting, and putter fitting.

Driver Fitting

While getting fitted for a full bug is nice, many don't necessarily do that due to the financial investment. Instead, they get fitted for a specific club, or a group of clubs.

While a new driver can make a big difference in your game, try not to fall for the marketing hype. While the drivers today are dramatically different than drivers five years ago, a specific brand or model might not necessarily fit your swing compared to another. This is where focusing on a fittings data can not only make a substantial different, but potentially save you a lot of money.

A driver fitting is a dedicated session focused on maximizing performance off the tee:

Dialing in loft and launch angle
Finding optimal spin rate and carry distance
Matching shaft flex, weight, and profile

Best For: Golfers struggling with distance, accuracy, or inconsistent tee shots.

Fun Fact: The average driver swing speed on the PGA Tour is 114 mph, but the average amateur is just 93 mph — making shaft selection crucial for maximizing ball speed.

Iron Fitting

Fine-tunes the scoring clubs in your bag, typically 5-iron through PW:

Determines correct shaft flex and length
Adjusts lie angle for more accurate ball flight
Analyzes spin and launch for proper gapping

Best For: Golfers who pull or push irons consistently, or who struggle with distance control.

Wedge Fitting

Focuses on loft, bounce, and grind — the short game essentials:

Ensures proper gapping (e.g., 52°, 56°, 60°)
Matches bounce to your turf interaction and swing style
Tests spin rates and feel around the greens

Best For: Players looking to sharpen their game inside 100 yards.

Putter Fitting

Often overlooked — but potentially the most valuable:

Determines ideal head shape (blade vs. mallet)
Matches toe hang to your stroke arc
Measures loft, lie, alignment, grip size, and feel

Best For: Golfers who 3-putt too often or feel inconsistent on the greens.

Quick Takeaway
You don’t need to do it all at once. Start with the part of your game that causes the most frustration, whether that’s missing fairways, chunking wedges, or struggling on the greens, and build from there.
