PING Golf Club Fitting

If you want to play your best golf, your golf clubs must fit you !

Golfers don't look athletic. They are tall, short, stout, thin, strong, weak, fast, slow, young, middle aged, senior, very athletic, somewhat athletic, beginners, occasional, experienced, avid, professional, good, bad and everything in between.
A mid handicap golfer can't effectively use the same equipment as a scratch golfer. A beginner would find it difficult to learn to play with the same clubs as experienced players. Woman won't be able to use the same clubs as a 100 kg man. A 60 year old will find it hard to play with the clubs used by a 25 year old and a person that hits a ball 230 meters can't use the same equipment as a person that only hits it 130 meters.

Golf is the most difficult sport in the world to play. There is no reason to make it harder by using poorly suited equipment. It doesn't matter what brand of club you buy, just make sure the equipment is suitable for you before you buy it. While this may sound complicated it really isn't if you know a few simple thing about golf clubs.

Start out by having your swing speed and tempo measured. Swing speeds are measured in miles per hour just like any other speed and will range anywhere from about 50 to 120 MPH unless you are the world long drive champion or Tiger Woods. Our club fitter at the Academia de Golfe and Nevada Bobs Golf have a device to measure your speed and tempo. This takes about 30 minutes. Then we will apply this information to the clubs you want and you will have a good start to the correct equipment.

PING CUSTOM FITTING:

How the chart works Find the row with your wrist-to-floor measurement. Find the column with the height range that includes your height.

The color bar at the intersection of this row and column indicates the color code, or lie angle, that best suits your build. Club length is indicated at the bottom of the height column.

Lie Angle
The angle formed between the centerline of the shaft and the sole of the club. The lie angle for PING irons is commonly referred to as its "color code". More accurately, a PING color code is a combination of the length of the golf and its lie angle.

Loft
The angle formed between the centerline of the shaft and the clubface. Loft has the most influence on the launch trajectory of a golf ball, although there are other factors that contribute significantly. Due to the design features of various iron models, each has slightly different lofts to optimize spin and lift.

There is also a  grip chart that calculates the proper grip size based on the length of your hand and longest finger.
