“We believe if you purchase a new golf club, you should have it custom fit to you and your individual swing”.
We know that every golfer is unique – your swing is as individual as you are, so for you to play to your potential your equipment needs to be properly fitted to you. “You would not dream of purchasing a new suit without making sure that it fit your build”
That’s why at South Leeds golf club we have the facilities to assess your individual needs as a player, and measure and fit your golf clubs to suit you.
We aim to ensure that the time spent with us selecting your new clubs is both valuable and enjoyable and ultimately rewards you with equipment that gives you the optimum chance of playing your best golf.
‘’The next time you purchase equipment, there are a few important issues to remember. Spending a little extra time customising your clubs is going to make a difference; a lesson or two before and after a club fitting will ensure the best result; even a small change to your existing clubs can have a major impact; and lastly, the technology is there for you – take advantage of it!’’
THE ‘7’ CUSTOM FITTING CHECKS
- Shaft length – determines where on the clubface the ball is consistently struck.
- Lie angle – the angle between the ground and the sole of the clubhead. This influences your shot shape.
- Shaft flex – determines trajectory, accuracy, distance, and consistency.
- Shaft type – Graphite shafts help you to get distance and height. Steel shafts are more controllable.
- Grip size – The thickness of the grip determines how quickly you release the clubhead.
- Club head design – determines the amount of workability and forgiveness.
- Set make up – do you use hybrids instead of long irons and how many wedges do you carry?
PUTTER CUSTOM FITTING
The Putter is the most commonly used golf club in your bag, so investing in a properly custom fit one is a wise move. Every players putting stroke is unique, every stance, set up, every routine, so don’t settle for off the shelve putters, built for ‘the average’. When we custom fit a putter we fit it to you and no one else, so that you can be sure you are giving yourself the best possible chance of making each putt.
THE ‘5’ PUTTING CUSTOM FITTING CHECKS

- Grip size – the thickness of the grip determines feel and comfort,
- Club head design – your compatibility to the head design determines the amount of forgiveness.
- Weight – vital, depending on the speed of the greens you play on.
