Modules
Each module starts with a free intro. Lessons, worked examples and worksheets are member-only.

1. Measure yourself
Height, wrist-to-floor, hand and finger length, and your current specs, recorded the same way every time.
Locked: Measurement worksheet and step-by-step photos.

2. Static vs dynamic fitting
What a tape measure can tell you, what only impact can, and how to combine the two.
Locked: Worked static-to-dynamic example from my own clubs.

3. Length and lie
Find the length that centres your strike, then check lie with impact marks rather than charts.
Locked: Strike-pattern and lie-check procedure, with decision table.

4. Loft and gapping
Build your yardage ladder, find the holes and overlaps, and decide which lofts to change.
Locked: Gapping worksheet built from my own 12-club model.

6. Shaft: weight, flex, profile, torque
The order I choose shaft specs, and how to test two shafts fairly.
Locked: Shaft test protocol with my October 2024 seven-iron test as the example.

7. Swing weight and MOI
Measure what you have, then match a set by swing weight or by MOI.
Locked: Matching worksheet and my MOI build table.

8. Head selection
Forgiveness, centre of gravity and look, judged by numbers on mishits as well as flushes.
Locked: Head comparison checklist.

9. Reading your launch monitor
Which numbers to trust, how many shots you need, and how to clean a session.
Locked: My cleaning rules as a reusable template.

10. Build and adjust checklist
Bending lofts and lies, cutting and tipping, swing weighting and checking the finished club.
Locked: Printable build checklist and spec sheet.
Free intro: why fit your own clubs at all?
Most of the gains in a fitting come from a few specs: length that centres the strike, lie that keeps the face square at impact, lofts that space your distances evenly, and a shaft weight you can time. You can check all four yourself with a few measurements, some impact tape and an honest look at your numbers. The course shows how, using my own clubs as the running example. Start with Fitting parameters, which is free.
