Driver Fitting is a detailed process. It involves the customization of all the major aspects of a driver that can affect the playability, feel and overall performance of the driver. Length is fit to optimize the best combination of consistency and distance. The best loft choice is determined to maximize launch angle and spin, key ingredients to optimizing distance. Shaft flex and type are determined to optimize trajectory, distance and feel. The proper face angle optimizes directional control and weight to improve the balance of the driver. Grip size, style and type are customized improving shot consistency and provide the player with the comfort, security and feel they desire from address through impact.

Distance & Optimization
Distance
Discover how the proper loft, shaft, weight, launch angle, spin rate and clubhead speed can deliver more distance off the tee during a proper fitting.
Optimization
For a lot of people, optimization is synonymous with adjustability. And many of the latest drivers have incredible options for adjustment – from face angle, to shot shape, to loft. Weight and aerodynamics play an important role in optimizing a driver to your game. Our certified fitters take these factors into account when fitting you for your new driver, turning you into a fairway-finding machine.
- Clubhead speed is a critical factor in achieving distance. It's a product of good swing tempo, balance, shaft weight, flex, aerodynamics and weight distribution. More clubhead speed means higher ball speeds, and that means longer drives. We match the driver to your swing and find extra ticks of clubhead speed for those few extra coveted yards.
- Spin rate can maximize your distance. Those with a lower clubhead speed need a higher spin rate to keep the ball in the air. Those with a higher clubhead speed send the ball screaming through the air, and a lower spin rate is needed for you to launch it properly. Our certified fitters take spin rate into account during the customization process, ensuring that your ball flies far.
- Launch angle is impacted by shaft characteristics, the loft of the club and even the impact zone on the clubface. All of which can be influenced by your swing and attack angle. Through the use of launch monitoring during the driver fitting process we make sure that your ball flight realizes its distance potential.
