Putter Fitting
A putter shaft's job is stability, not load response, so it runs on a separate bench entirely — independent of the tip zone rig that handles the rest of the bag.
Reading Your Stroke, Not Your Transition
Where the long-game side of the studio measures how a shaft loads and recovers, the putting bench captures stroke path, face rotation, and impact location instead. There's no swing speed to match here — the goal is a putter that stays square through a stroke that's naturally repeatable for you, not one you have to manipulate to keep on line.
We start by watching your stroke with your current putter, unchanged, before testing any alternatives against it.
What Actually Changes in a Putter Session
Length
Standing too tall or too hunched over a putter changes eye position over the ball, which quietly shifts your natural aim before the stroke even starts.
Lie Angle
The wrong lie angle tilts the face open or closed at address without you realizing it, so every putt starts fighting a small aim error before the stroke begins.
Face Balance
Face-balanced heads suit a straighter stroke path; toe-hang designs suit a stroke with more natural arc. We match this to what the bench shows, not what looks better in the mirror.
Head Weight
Heavier heads can smooth out a jabby stroke tempo; lighter heads suit players who prefer more feel and touch on shorter putts.
Grip Shape
Oversized and pistol grips change how much the hands can rotate the face through the stroke. We test both against your natural tendencies before recommending either.
Loft at Impact
Delivered loft at impact — not the loft stamped on the putter — determines how quickly the ball starts rolling true instead of hopping off the face.
What a Bench-Verified Fitting Can Fix
Putts That Start Offline Even With a Good Stroke
Lie angle mismatched to your setup is one of the most common, least visible causes of a consistent aim error that looks like a stroke problem but isn't.
Distance Control That Falls Apart Under Pressure
Head weight that doesn't match your natural tempo can make speed control inconsistent specifically on the putts that matter most.
Three-Putts From Inside Fifteen Feet
A face balance mismatch to your stroke arc often shows up first as short misses, not the long lag putts golfers usually blame.
A Putter That Felt Great in the Shop, Not on the Green
Showroom feel doesn't account for your actual stroke path. The bench measures what really happens once you're standing over a real putt.
