How can you identify misfit clubs? A number of things will indicate if your clubs are not corretly fitted for you.
- Do you hit every shot solid? Or do you hit some fat, some skinny or both?
- Do you hit every 7 iron the same distance? Or do you miss short of the green sometimes and over the green on other shots? As well with all clubs in your bag.
- Do you hit all of you shots in the same direction? Or do you miss shots to both the left and to the right at times?
- Do you hit all of your shots towards the target? Or do they go in the woods or deep rough often?
- Do you hit every shot in the center of the clubface? Or do you hit them in the toe? Or in the heel? Or so you hit shots all over the club face?

| If you have been playing golf for a long time and you answer no to any of the questions above chances are your clubs can be fit better for your swing. Take a look at the 9 ball flight laws and you will see most of the typical reasons for hitting most of your misdirected golf shots. Almost Everybody Has a Golf Swing If you can walk and not fall down you probably can swing a golf club. If you’ve ever played any sport at any level well enough to even try out for a team you probably have enough athletic ability for golf. If you can shake hands with someone and get your hands aligned, and if you can give someone a high five and put your hand flat on their hand you have enough hand-eye coordination to get the club face square at impact. So, why can’t you? For the same reason a track star can’t run as fast wearing 10 pound track shoes, bad equipment. Try to visualize a 6’8”, 250 pound golfer and a 5’2”, 120 pound golfer. OK, got it? Do you think they will both hit a 50 inch driver the same? How about a 42 inch driver. Picture both of them with each club and you will get the picture of why clubs need to be fitted just for you. 1 inch in length and 2 grams (about the weight of a $1 bill) in weight can make a difference in how solidly you hit a golf ball, how accurately you hit a golf ball and how consistently you hit a golf ball. Accuracy Accuracy is the result of getting your club face pointed at the intended target at impact. If you make an air swing with only your hand, can you point your hand at the target at the impact position of the swing? So, if you can the only thing preventing you from hitting straight shots is having a club matched to your swing that allow you to point the club face at the target at impact.
