Custom Fitting at TM Golf Shops
Ever wondered why those tuition and equipment testing articles never did much for your own game?
The good news is: It’s not your fault. The articles are to blame, in particular their methodology.
The equipment tests in particular use testing protocols that invariably involve comparing seemingly similar clubs yet with vastly differing shaft and club head specifications. Secondly, the use of human testers (or, indeed, mechanical robots) necessarily makes great assumptions about a golfer’s launch conditions that are usually irrelevant when it comes to advising other specific individuals.
The point being that your golf swing is unique - and your clubs should be, too. Buying either ‘off-the-shelf’, or from following tests and tips, could cost you as much as 30 yards on every drive or turn your best swings into poor results.
Why not book a custom fitting session at TM Golf Shops, equipped with the latest digital analysis technology and fully qualified PGA Professionals, will confirm what serious players have known all along. Just as your golf swing is ‘as unique as your fingerprint’ (to quote the accurate cliché), so the choice and set up of your golf equipment depends crucially on your personal swing profile. And yours only.
The Concept
Custom fitting your equipment takes many forms and processes but the end result is always to only include in your golf bag equipment that works for you and your swing. This could lead to the disappearance of long irons or types of wedges or even the “best” golf ball in the world.
All fittings, whether for a driver right down to a putter, follow the same format
1 – Find out about you, your limitations, your history and your ambitions
2 – An analysis of your current equipment and its suitability
3 - An assessment of your ball flight and technique
4 – The appliance of fitting technology to your game
The Process
One of our PGA Professionals will take your static measurements and use them and some low tech impact stickers to ascertain length, lie and head type.
Meanwhile digital technology such as Vector Pro Launch Monitor or SAMS Puttlab put meat on the bones of how you launch and spin the ball to back up the ball flight (All fittings are done in a real outdoor situation). Then, using systems from industry leaders such as Callaway, Titleist, Taylor Made, Cobra, Nike, Ping, Dave Hicks and Golfsmith we can adjust the clubs to optimize the most vital performance parameters.
