What Actually Happens on the Bench
Every fitting follows the same four stages, whether you're booking a single wedge or a full bag rebuild.
Deflection Board Testing
Every shaft that's part of your fitting goes on the deflection board first. We load it at several points along its length and mark the plane where it resists bending most — the spine — before any club talk happens.
FLO Confirmation
We confirm the board reading with a flat-line oscillation check, spinning the shaft under load and watching where the tip naturally settles. Two independent readings agreeing is what clears a shaft for a specific orientation.
Live Bay Fitting
With spine orientation decided, we move to the launch bay and work through heads, lofts, and lengths, watching how each combination responds to your actual swing rather than a generic profile. Every swing is logged and compared side by side.
Bench Build & Verification
Clubs are assembled in-house with the marked spine oriented exactly as specified, then checked against target frequency and swing weight before pickup. Most orders are ready within a week.
What We're Actually Measuring
The deflection board captures bend resistance at multiple load points around the shaft's circumference, plotting a stiffness curve that reveals the spine plane. Paired with FLO oscillation data and launch monitor numbers from the bay, we get a build spec grounded in three independent measurements instead of one assumption.
The Variable Most Fittings Skip
Flex, weight, and torque get plenty of attention in a typical fitting because they're easy to shop for on a spec sheet. Spine orientation gets skipped because it requires physical testing on the actual shaft in hand, not a manufacturer's published number. We built the whole bench around not skipping it.
