Custom Fitting
Hi,
I've just purchased brand new R11 irons, driver, 3 wood and putter.
Can I still get a custom fitting or should I have done this before I bought them?
Advice would be greatly appreciated.
Tom

Slawomir, What exactly did "golf direct" do for £30? Were you present, and what info did you give them about yourself ? What was improved after tweaking?

I had my clubs checked at Direct Golf.
What they checked is the loft and lie of the clubs, they then adjusted them if required.
The good thing is that you pay the £30 on the first visit and you can go back as often as you want to have the clubs checked again. As long as you have the same clubs they will keep checking and adjusting them for you.
Seeing as my irons are Mizuno MP68's, a blade club made from a soft metal I was advised to go back at least three times a year. This was because I play three or four times a week.

Tom, so you play off a handicap of 14 and hit your old 5 wood 275 yards and straight everytime?
Congratulations!!!!
Based on the current European Tour Stats that means you hit your 5 wood further than Miguel Angel Jimenez, Colin Montgomerie, Matteo Manessero, Simon Dyson, Soren Keljdsen, Thomas Levet, Ben Curtis, Jose Marie Olazabel or Michael Campbell can hit their DRIVERS!!!!!
That really is impressive given that three of those named have won majors.
You must tell me what I'm doing wrong, When I was younger I played county golf but would be doing well to hit a 5 wood 200 yards these days.

Tom you really need to work on your short game. With distances like that and hitting it straight all the time there is no way you should be on a 14 handicap!
My husband is scratch team captain and one of the longest and straightest hitters at the club and he hits his PW 130 yeards.

Tom, Have you got your swing downloaded? Id like to see it, I might learn something as distance is an area i could do with help on.
Cheers, Dave CAC handed Geordie.

Fantastic round Tom, is that your 1st sub 80?. 3 over after 14, 4 over last 4, What happened? Did you start counting the shots?. Great all the same. Dave CAC handed Geordie.

Hi Tom You went round with 8, 9 and wedges and hit +7 ? You are destined for a very , very low handicap !!!!! how many shots with 8 iron to reach long par 5' s ?
