Whenever I played the thirteenth or fifteenth hole at Augusta, [my dad] had a habit of kneeling down, cupping his hands and yelling, “Lay up, lay up!” He was just beside himself every time I got near the water. BEN CRENSHAW

#ASKMYGOLFSPY – Driver Fittings
A quality driver fitting provides the best opportunity for quantifiable performance improvement. Whether that’s super important or just kinda important is golfer dependent but, short of a comprehensive speed training program, moving from an off-the-rack driver to a properly fitted driver offers the best opportunity to gain significant distance (and improve consistency).
As with most fitting questions, the right answer is “it depends.” Most fitters (and particularly fitting chains) like to boast about the number of combinations they offer. Typically, it’s around 50,000. I wouldn’t suggest you try them all.
If we’re talking about a driver fitting, three or four heads is sensible. You might be able to get away with more but a good fitter is going to be able to figure out what type of driver is going to work for you and then start dialing in things like loft, weight settings and shaft specs before you get tired and your swing degrades.
With irons, fatigue will be less of an immediate concern so you may have an opportunity to try a few more options but, again, a good fitter should be able to narrow the field pretty quickly.
If you’re looking for a place to start, take a look at this year’s Most Wanted Driver test to see which clubs to put on your radar.
