PERFORMANCE DRIVER FITTING

$125* | 50 Minutes

Our goal in a driver fitting is to maximize your distance and accuracy. We start this process by measuring your current driver's playing characteristics. Taking into account these baseline numbers, your performance fitter will have you test multiple head and shaft combinations to maximize your launch conditions and ball speed, while limiting dispersion.

PERFORMANCE IRON FITTING

$175* | 80 Minutes

This fitting begins with testing your existing irons to gather baseline data. Your fitter will analyze this data and along with your feedback to select irons for testing. Once a model is selected, your fitter will make sure the iron is fitted properly for length, shaft type, flex, and grip, while achieving the best possible launch and spin conditions given your swing dynamics. The final step is to discuss the optimal set make-up and wedge gapping for the irons you have selected.

PERFORMANCE SET FITTING

$225* | Two 80-Minute Sessions

This fitting is designed for the player looking for a new set of clubs from the driver down through wedges. We will incorporate the Performance Driver and Iron Fittings, along with the testing of fairways and hybrids. Typically, the irons and wedges will be fit first followed by driver, fairway and long game fitting. Because of the volume of golf balls hit and the rate a player typically fatigues, we prefer to schedule these fittings on different days.

PERFORMANCE BAG ANALYSIS

$125* | 80 Minutes

The purpose of this fitting is to analyze the distance gapping and ball flight of your current set of clubs. Through this analysis, we can determine what changes or additions should be made to your current bag configuration. Wedge gapping and hybrid integration are most common. Any loft and lie adjustments that are needed on your current clubs are covered by the fitting fee.

LONG GAME FITTING

$175* | 80 Minutes

This fitting will help you configure your bag for driver + fairway woods or fairway woods + hybrid clubs. Many players struggle to find the best combination of clubs to cover the gaps in distance these clubs create. By testing multiple clubs and gathering Trackman data, we can help you find the best performing products, maximize your distance and accuracy and maintain a playable trajectory.

PERFORMANCE WEDGE FITTING

The Quintic Ball Roll system captures the true roll of the ball, at 720 fps, tracking both the putter and the ball through the impact zone. Quintic measures over 45 parameters that we evaluate to determine the putter specifications best suited for you. We’ll help you discover your strengths and weaknesses, and find the putter that best fits your stroke.
