Iron Fitting

A single iron can be measured perfectly and still let you down if it doesn't gap correctly against the rest of your set. We measure and build the whole run together, not one club at a time.

What We Measure

Static Fit and Dynamic Fit, Checked Separately

A static lie angle reading — where the club sits at address — only tells part of the story. We also watch dynamic lie on impact tape and camera, since your actual delivery through the ball often reads several degrees different from your setup position, especially at faster swing speeds.

Once lie, loft, length, and shaft weight are locked in for one iron, we build the full set to a matching gapping map, then verify carry distance between every club before we call it finished.

The Variables

What Actually Changes in an Iron Build

Lie Angle

A lie angle even three or four degrees off can push shots consistently left or right, regardless of how square your face is at impact.

Length

Longer irons increase swing speed and distance but reduce control; shorter irons trade some distance for tighter dispersion. We land on the balance that fits your miss.

Shaft Weight & Flex

Shaft weight across a set affects tempo consistency from club to club. We often step weight gradually through the set rather than using one flat shaft everywhere.

Head Type

Cavity-back, blade, and hybrid-style iron heads trade forgiveness for feel and workability at different points on the spectrum — matched to your strike consistency.

Set Composition

Where hybrids or a driving iron should replace a traditional long iron is decided as part of the fitting, not assumed by a standard set makeup.

Grip Size

Undersized grips promote a more active hand release; oversized grips quiet excess hand action. We measure hand size and wind grips to match.

Get Your Whole Set Gapped Correctly

Appointments run 60–90 minutes and cover the full set, not one club in isolation.
