I had my 16 yr old son fitted for a driver at PGA Superstore last week. He tried multiple heads and ended up with the best numbers for a 9 degree TSR3 with the Black 1K X 65G (numbers below). Was relatively happy with the fitting but after the fact I was a bit disappointed that we didn’t try any premium or after market shafts, more weight options, lofts, hosel adjustments, etc. I also didn't realize his dispersion wasn't great (although his shot shape was solid so might just be from not being used to hitting indoors).
Since we only spent about 35 minutes on the Trackman, they agreed to give us another 30 mins or so of fitting.
Looking for some guidance on what to ask to test from a shaft perspective, etc. Also, one thing the fitter said is he thinks his spin should be 2500 or higher. I have heard that he might be optimized at a bit lower rate. Also, is there a benefit to trying the 8 degree? Any thoughts or guidance would be appreciated.
Note: My son is a varsity high school golfer and plays to about a 7 HC. He hasn’t swung a club in about 6 weeks so his speed numbers if anything are a bit lower than usual.
