On Thursday, I will be having a driver fitting at a Club Champion facility, and I have a few questions for those that have done it:
1)How do you keep the fitting realistic?
I was fitted 4 years ago, but it did not go well because my swing indoors does not resemble the one outdoors. It is a lot more loose and smooth since it is not under competitive pressure, and I am usually much longer because of it. Plus since I get to swing so many times in a fitting, I get into a groove. In golf, it is one driver swing every 20 minutes, and In my case, it is a very timid swing after I have gone OB in my first hole...
How can I keep a fitting realistic?
2)Shaft lenghs!
I tend to hit my 44inch mini driver straight and fairly well. The weird thing is that, in theory, it should be more penalizing since it is a much smaller head than a normal driver, but I get the feeling that when I mishit it, it feels a lot more solid that a normal driver. I know that some folks cut down their driver to 43.5 for better control. However, I am thinking that if I do that, the regular driver will probably end up being about the same lengh/distance than my mini driver.
I seem to remember that THP had an experiment last year about shaft lenghs and concluded that 46 inches was best for most or something along those lines. Does anyone remember?
