Fairway Wood Fitting
Fairway woods ask more of your hands than a driver in one specific way — you need enough grip security to compress the ball off turf, not just off a tee. We build that requirement into the fitting from the first swing.
Sole Design Meets Grip Confidence
A wide, cambered sole glides through turf more forgivingly than a narrow one on a steep angle of attack, but that forgiveness only matters if your hands stay confident through contact. We test sole shapes on real turf samples while checking that your grip texture holds up on a downward strike, not just a sweeping tee shot.
Shaft weight and flex get tuned to your tempo the same way as a driver fitting, but we also watch how grip pressure shifts between a tee shot and a shot off the deck — for many golfers it changes more than they expect.
What We Adjust for a Fairway Wood
Grip Texture & Diameter
Confirmed under a mix of tee and turf sample swings, since grip pressure often changes between the two more than golfers realize.
Loft Selection
Fairway wood lofts run wider than most golfers assume — matching loft to your typical angle of attack determines whether the club launches or knuckles.
Sole Width & Camber
A wider, more cambered sole resists digging on a steep attack angle; a shallower sole suits a sweeping strike from firmer turf.
Shaft Profile
Weight and flex tuned to tempo the same way as a driver fitting, with tip stiffness checked separately since fairway wood delivery tends to be more descending.
Length & Lie
A slightly shorter, more upright build than a driver often improves consistency off the deck without sacrificing meaningful distance.
Head Design
Deeper faces suit players who tee it up more often; shallower faces with more offset help golfers who play the club primarily from the fairway.
