Putter Fitting
Putter shafts don't get swung fast enough for spine to behave the way it does on a driver — here, the shaft's bend point and your stroke arc take the lead instead.
Why the Putter Fitting Looks Different Here
We're honest about the fact that a putter's low swing speed means shaft spine has far less practical effect than it does on a full-swing club. Instead, a putter fitting on our bench centers on the shaft's bend point relative to the head's toe hang, matched to your stroke arc — the actual variable that determines whether a putter feels like it's fighting your stroke or working with it.
We measure your stroke arc on our putting capture rig first, then match face balance, length, and lie to what that arc actually needs.
Levers We Pull During a Putter Session
Toe Hang & Face Balance
Matched to your stroke arc — a straight-back-straight-through stroke and an arced stroke each want a different amount of toe hang.
Length & Lie
Set against your posture at address so the sole sits flat and your eyes fall in the right spot over the ball.
Loft
Checked against your typical forward shaft lean at impact to keep the ball rolling end-over-end sooner.
Matching Face Balance to How You Actually Stroke It
| Stroke Type | Typical Toe Hang | Common Miss If Unfit |
|---|---|---|
| Strong arc | Full toe hang (face-balanced) | Pushes and pulls off-center |
| Slight arc | Mid toe hang (partially face-balanced) | Inconsistent face rotation |
| Straight-back-straight-through | Face-balanced, zero toe hang | Pulls from over-rotation |
