Iron Fitting
Irons get hit more often than any other club in the bag, which means grip wear and hand fatigue show up here first. We check grip diameter and texture at both ends of the set, not just the middle iron most fittings default to.
Why We Check Grip at Both Ends of the Bag
A grip that's correctly sized on your 7-iron isn't automatically correct on your pitching wedge or 3-iron if wear, wrap count, or aftermarket tape have drifted between clubs over time. We measure grip diameter across the full set before touching lie angle, since an inconsistent grip feel between clubs undermines even a perfectly gapped set.
From there, dynamic lie angle gets checked with impact tape on a lie board, and shaft flex is tested across the set to confirm gapping holds up under your actual tempo, not a generic chart.
What Actually Changes in an Iron Fitting
Grip Diameter
Checked club to club, not assumed uniform — wear and buildup tape drift over a season more than most golfers expect.
Lie Angle
A flat lie tends to push shots right (for a right-handed golfer); an upright lie tends to pull shots left. Dynamic lie, checked at impact, is the number that matters.
Length
Longer irons add distance potential but reduce center-strike consistency for most golfers. Correct length balances both against your actual strike pattern.
Shaft Flex Across the Set
Flex tested across every iron, not just one club, since tempo can shift noticeably between a short iron and a long iron.
Set Makeup
Where irons stop and hybrids or fairway woods take over should follow real carry-distance gaps, not a traditional numbering convention.
Head Category
Forged blades reward precise strikes with feel and control; game-improvement cavity-backs add forgiveness for off-center contact.
Get Your Full Set Mapped
Iron fittings run 60–90 minutes and include a full carry-distance gapping report.
