Why You Should Get Your Golf Clubs Custom Fitted
If you've ever wondered whether custom golf club fitting is worth the investment, you're not alone. It's one of the most common questions we hear at Billericay Golf in Essex and the answer might surprise you. Custom fitting isn't just for tour pros or scratch golfers – it's a game-changer for players at every level.
The Primary Reason: Enhanced Performance and Goal Achievement
The most compelling reason to get your clubs custom fitted is simple: to enhance your performance and achieve your specific golfing goals. Whether you're looking for more distance off the tee, better ball striking consistency, tighter shot dispersion, improved accuracy, or a combination of these benefits, custom fitting provides the roadmap to get there.
During a fitting session, we start with an in-depth conversation about your goals. This interview process helps us understand exactly what you want to achieve with your new equipment. Come prepared with a clear idea of what you're looking for – it makes the process more efficient and effective.
The Cost Factor: It's Not What You Think
One of the biggest misconceptions about custom fitting is cost. Many golfers assume that fitted clubs will cost significantly more than off-the-rack options. The truth is, custom fitted clubs cost exactly the same as standard clubs.
At Billericay Golf, we charge £40 for the fitting session, which typically takes 30-45 minutes (though we allow up to an hour if needed). Here's the best part: if you decide to purchase clubs after your fitting, we apply that £40 directly to your deposit. Essentially, the fitting becomes free when you buy.
