Improving Quality with Custom Fitting

Man behind the gun, might be used as a term in golf since as good as or as expensive as any stick you have, in the end the quality of the golfer will determine the final outcome of the match. In addition to practicing diligently, there is other effort which can improve the quality of the golfer and is considered effective by doing Custom Fitting on the golf stick used.

Custom Fitting is adjusting stick used to really fit the characteristics of the golfer such as speed swing, height, aggressive playing style, or safety, and so on. Basically, it is a process of analyzing the swing of a golfer to find out which golf stick is suitable for him/her.

In the Fitting process, it is necessary to pay attention to Swing Speed, when using both driver and iron. This is needed to find the right flex Shaft. Generally, Indonesian swing speeds range from 70-110 Mph, even though there are also more than that. Golfers whose swing speed is between 82-94 Mph should choose regular shaft, swing speed 94-106 Mph is more suitable for Stiff Shaft (S), swing speed 66-82 MPh more suitable for A (Average/Senior)shaft, swing speed 45-66 MPH is more suitable for L/LL (Lite or double Lite/generally lady)shaft.

Then, the tempo of the swing is taken into account, fast or slow, since it can affect rounds or twists. Professional golfers tend to use stiff flex shafts, so the torque gets smaller. In contrast, amateur golfers use flexible shafts, so the torque gets bigger. The height of the wrist from the floor also matters since it can affect the distance control of the ball.
