Fairway Wood Fitting
A fairway wood has to handle two jobs a driver never worries about: launch cleanly off a tee and come through turf without twisting on you. We measure and build for both.
Turf Interaction Gets the Same Weight as Ball Flight
Most fairway wood fittings stop at launch numbers on a screen. We add a real turf mat to the session, because how a sole glides through grass changes which head actually performs for you — a design that looks perfect on paper can still dig or bounce in a way the numbers alone won't show.
We compare your current fairway wood against demo heads across loft, offset, and sole grind, then trim the winning shaft to length and set swingweight on our own bench before you leave.
What Actually Changes in a Fairway Wood Build
Sole Design
A rounded, shallow sole tends to glide through turf; a squared, aggressive sole can dig for players with a steep angle of attack. Matching this to your swing prevents fat contact.
Loft & Face Angle
Off-the-tee and off-the-deck lofts often diverge slightly for the same head. We test both scenarios rather than one launch condition alone.
Shaft Weight & Launch
A heavier shaft can settle down an overly active face; a lighter shaft can help players who struggle to get fairway woods airborne consistently.
