June 10th, 2024

The Best 2024 Driver and shaft combinations is based upon our fitting results so far in 2024.    The Best of the Best are Highlighted in Red! The usual suspects were on the 2024 Golf Digest Equipment Hot List , but a the biggest news is the Maximum MOI – 10K drivers from almost every manufacturer.  Various forums, and ourselves as well publish a list of the best drivers.  Some are very independent and some are not.  Doesn’t matter.  What our customers are looking for is what are the best driver and shaft combinations that we have fit so far in 2024, even though it is early in the season.  In addition, we believe that the shaft is the part of the club that has the most impact on distance, consistency and accuracy, so that is why we are including our shaft recommendations in this list. This list will be updated throughout the year as new shaft offerings are released.  We have four distinct categories based upon swing speed and distance.  Swing Speed 106+, Distance > 250 yards Swing Speed 95-105, Distance 211 – 250 yards Swing Speed 80 – 94, Distance 175 – 210 yards Swing Speed Under 80,...

Best Iron Shafts 2024

April 29th, 2024

See our picks for the best iron shafts for 2024 – featuring multiple new steel and graphite iron shafts and removing discontinued shafts. Remember that selecting the best iron shaft or iron-shaft combination starts with knowing your game. For simplicity, we’ve grouped iron shafts by swing speed. However, so much more goes into fitting the right shaft – tempo, transition, release, launch angles, spin, swing path and more. Without a custom club fitting and knowing your numbers, trusting off the shelf or manufacturer suggested shafts often lead to frustration and disappointment. New Enhancements for Iron Shafts The newest irons and shafts in 2024 are producing greater distance, forgiveness and accuracy for our customers because we properly tune the iron and shaft combination to your handicap and swing dynamics. We’ve put the newest iron shafts from Aerotech, ACCRA, Fujikura, Project X, True Temper, Graphite Design, KBS, OBAN, Mitsubishi, Nippon and others through rigorous testing. Choose your handicap range or swing speed to see how each iron shaft stacks up. 2024 Guide to Best Iron Shafts Recommendations are based on distances, trajectory and spin generated within 4 categories of swing speeds. As a starting point, our testing and proprietary BGF Fitting System... Read More

April 15th, 2024

Scottie Scheffler wins his 2nd Masters Tournament in a row!  The number one player in the world solidified his legacy as he played solid throughout the tournament! While his putting has taken some hits this year, no one can take away what he has done from tee to green. No. 1 – Strokes Gained Overall No. 2 – Strokes Gained Off the Tee No. 1 – Strokes Gained Approach to Green So what are his secrets other than unbelievable talent and composure? Tee it High and Let it Fly! In his post round press conference Scottie was candid about teeing it high and letting it fly!  He said, the fairways at Augusta are fairly wide so penalties were not that significant.  And, the longer off the tee you are, the shorter your shot to the green.  That allowed him to hit very select shots into the greens.  Most of our golfers want to hit more GIR this year so here are a couple posts to read on getting more distance off the tee!

Get Fit then Shoot Your Age!

March 18th, 2024

If you want to shoot your age, maybe a good club fitting and the right clubs will help!  That has happened to many of our customers but the most recent happened early in 2024.  Tom H. came in for an iron fitting as his irons were a little old and he needed to fill the gaps above his long irons.  We fit him into a new Callaway AI Smoke 4 hybrid and TaylorMade Qi 10 irons with a little bit firmer shaft and properly matched gapping between his irons and hybrid.  Now, Tom is a 10 handicap but plays a lot of golf.  He also is 77 years old!  So when we got the call about his new clubs, we were thrilled for him: “I had to call and tell you how much I love the new clubs.  The consistency and accuracy is amazing!  I shot two over par yesterday and one over par today!  The hybrid is the perfect distance that I was looking for.  Thank you for a great job fitting this new set for me!” Tom H., Colorado Love it when our customers shoot their age!  I am hoping I can live long enough to do that!!...
