The Performance Factors of Clubfitting

Tom Wishon said: After spending over 30 years in golf club design and clubfitting research, I am absolutely convinced that every golfer can play better and enjoy the game more by being accurately fit into golf clubs which are custom built to offset the swing mistakes and enhance the correct swing moves of each individual golfer.

Since 1981, I’ve taught thousands of clubmakers the correct principles of custom fitting. In turn, I have received countless phone calls, letters and e-mails from clubmakers as well as their clients who realize the best set of golf clubs will never be bought in standard form, off the rack from a golf retail store.

Real improvement through custom clubfitting requires consultation with a trained clubmaker who knows how to translate each golfer’s need for game improvement into direct changes in the specifications of the golf clubs which address each area of improvement.

Tom states in his book, Common Sense Clubfitting: - that all of the possible game improvement desires of golfers can be summarized in the following ways:

I want more Distance

I want to improve Accuracy

I want to improve shotmaking Consistency

I want to change the Trajectory of my shot pattern

I Want to Improve the Swing and Impact Feel of my Golf Clubs

An Qualified AGCP professional clubfitter will approach the custom fitting session by first determining which of the areas of game improvement are most important for each golfer – Distance, Accuracy, Consistency, Trajectory or Feel. Then by measuring the “Primary” and “Secondary” effect specifications on the golfer’s existing set, the clubmaker can reference these specifications for the desired game improvement areas above, and know how much improvement IS possible for the golfer to achieve in an accurately fit set of custom made clubs. The clubmaker then proceeds to guide the golfer through a series of measurements and tests which combine with the clubmaker’s assessment of the “Primary” and “Secondary” design specifications, to determine the exact specifications for the new custom fit set. Only your qualified AGCP fitter and builder can build to the exact specifications you require. You can’t buy this degree of custom fit clubs off the rack or from any catalog. You will find that your AGCP fitter will have the quality products to equal or surpass any on the market. Most of the quality products you are familiar with are manufactured in the same foundries that your AGCP fitter’s products are manufactured. Your AGCP fitter and builder will spend more time and build a better set of clubs than the assembly line building of the mass produced products that are so highly advertised. They are simply built to a higher standard, just like the NASCAR Chevys are built better than the mass produced versions made on the Chevy assembly line.

That’s real custom fitting, and that is a major reason why custom fit is better than standard off the rack clubs every day of the week, and for every single golfer.
