What is the Fitting Advisor?
Every golf shop will sell you a fitting — most start at $150 and go up to $500 or more. The honest truth is that fitting is genuinely worth the money for some golfers and a complete waste for others. The shops won’t tell you which group you’re in. This tool will.
It asks seven quick questions about your handicap, how long you’ve been playing, the age of your current clubs, your swing speed, and what you’re actually trying to fix. Then it gives you a direct yes or no answer, with the reasoning.
If yes — it tells you which kind of fitting you actually need (single club, full bag, or tour-level), what it should cost in your region, what to bring, and the red flags that suggest a fitter is just trying to upsell you.
If no — it tells you what to do instead. Sometimes that’s lessons first. Sometimes it’s a specific piece of equipment you can buy without spending $300 on someone testing your swing.
Should you actually get fitted — or are you wasting your money?
Every golf shop will sell you a fitting. We’ll tell you the truth: when fitting is worth it, when it isn’t, what kind you actually need, and what it should cost in your region.
