The first part that needs to be taken into consideration is your gender. The industry uses different standard lengths for men and for women.

Your height is along with the distance from your wrist to the floor are used together to determine the length of the club that would be appropriate for you. Club lengths can vary from three and a half inches (for women) to five inches (for men). Just because your taller doesn’t mean that you need a longer club. Most golfers are standard length regardless of the person’s height.

The next step is to take your age, your handicap, self-assessed skill level, the estimated golf swing speed as well as the club you use at the hundred and fifty yard marker. Combined them together to figure the club’s shaft flex that would be right for you.

If you have one of those swings that slice the ball (which means that the toe of the club is leading into the ball), custom clubs can help fix that for you. In some part it may be because of the club being too flat. With custom fitting, the process can make the club more upright to assist you with this. The club is designed so the toe is off the ground at the point of address to compensate.

There are different methods of fitting according to custom golf club manufacturers but ultimately they are all trying to improve your game. To begin with simple measurements such as wrist-to-floor, height and hand size will point you to the right size club and at what angle it should be to the ground. Then you will take a club and hit some balls. One method is to place impact tape on the bottom of the custom golf club and an impact board on the floor. As you hit the ball the board will leave a mark on the tape showing whether the heel or the toe of the custom golf club is striking the floor first.

This will determine if the club face needs to be flatter or more upright. There is equipment that will analyze everything from you club speed to the spin on the ball to help maximize you shot. It will also look at how much backspin you generate as well as impact efficiency. The angle in which the custom golf club approaches the ball and the side spin of it can help fix your game too.
