Custom Iron Fitting: Start with Questions, 7-Iron Data & TrackMan Personalization

Start a proper iron fitting with questions about goals and swing, then benchmark with your 7-iron. Use TrackMan to dial attack angle, launch, spin, speed and height—matching clubs to your target flight, feel and course conditions.

Key Points

  • Initial Questions:

      • Review golfer’s goals, physical limitations, and swing preferences.

      • Ask if the golfer has a preferred brand (e.g., Titleist, Callaway, Srixon) to narrow focus.

  • Iron Fitting Approach:

      • Use the 7-iron from the player’s bag—it's the middle of the iron set, ideal for benchmarking.

      • Have the player hit 4–6 shots to gather consistent data (aiming for 3–4 good strikes).

     

  • TrackMan Data Collection:

      • Focuses on:

        • Attack angle

        • Spin rate

        • Ball speed

        • Launch angle

        • Height/trajectory

     

  • Player Example:

      • Seeks a lower ball flight with high spin rate.

      • TrackMan confirms their preferences and goals are being met.

      • Demonstrates how the fitting is tailored to the specific shot shape and playing conditions (e.g., firm course).

     

  • Goal of Fitting:

      • Match clubs to the desired performance outcome based on data and feel.

      • Create a data-driven, individualized fit for better control and consistency.
