The importance of using the best equipment for your golf game cannot be over emphasised. Consistency, distance, trajectory, control and accuracy are all affected by the use of unsuitable equipment.
Recently, golf club technology has dramatically changed. Club heads are now bigger and more user friendly than ever before, allowing YOU to hit the ball consistently further and straighter.
Using modern day equipment is essential, but it must be suitable for you. Standard clubs are available off the shelf, but there is no such thing as standard anymore, different manufactures have their own measurement of what is standard. For example, take a look at the following specifications for 3 standard clubs.
| Standard Titleist 6 iron | |
|---|---|
| Loft | 31° |
| Length | 37.5 |
| Lie | 62.5 |
| Standard Ping 6 iron | |
|---|---|
| Loft | 30.5° |
| Length | 37.25 |
| Lie | 61.5 |
| Standard Taylormade 6 iron | |
|---|---|
| Loft | 29° |
| Length | 37.5 |
| Lie | 62.5 |
As you can see these specifications really do vary from one brand to another. Here at the academy we fit you to you a measurement rather than 1 deg upright or 1 deg flat.
