Club Fitting

Tour-Level Club Fitting Built One Club at a Time

Stop guessing with off-the-rack specs. Every club at MB Custom Golf is fitted and built precisely for your swing — using tour-grade tools, launch-monitor data, and one consistent set of hands from start to finish.

Why Fitting Matters

Benefits of a Proper Club Fitting

Properly fit clubs can improve your accuracy, distance, consistency, comfort, and confidence by matching length, lie, shaft, and grip to your body and swing instead of forcing you to adapt to off-the-rack specs.

Improved Accuracy

Lie angle, length, and shaft flex are tuned to your motion so the ball starts on line more often.

More Distance

Optimized loft, launch, and spin help you pick up extra yards without having to swing harder.

Better Ball Flight

Get a flight window that fits your game instead of fighting ballooning shots or low knuckle balls.

Real Consistency

A set that’s matched from top to bottom so every club feels and performs like part of one system.

Comfort & Less Strain

Length, weight, and grip size tuned to you can ease stress on your back, hands, and joints.

More Confidence

When you trust your tools, you swing freer — one of the biggest performance gains in golf.

Comparison

Why MB Custom Golf vs. Off-the-Rack

Not all fittings are created equal. Here’s how a tour-level, one-on-one build studio compares to a typical big-box or manufacturer fitting experience.

Big-Box / Manufacturer Fitting

  • Built to “standard” specs for an average golfer.
  • Multiple people touch your clubs on an assembly line.
  • Limited time per golfer in a net or sim bay.
  • Incentive to move certain brands or clear inventory.

MB Custom Golf – Tour-Level Custom Build

  • Every club is built by one set of hands for true consistency.
  • Brand-neutral recommendations based on launch data and feel.
  • FlightScope Mevo+ and All-Fit system for precise head/shaft testing.
  • Mitchell Golf & TPT certified fitting and build process.
  • The club you’re fit into is built to the same specs you tested.
Ball Flight Data

Understanding Descent Angle in Your Fitting

Descent angle (also called landing angle) is how steeply your golf ball is coming down at the end of its flight. Along with launch angle and spin, it’s one of the key ball-data numbers we use to make sure your shots are carrying the right distance and behaving properly when they land.

Launch vs. Descent

  • Launch Angle – how high the ball leaves the face.
  • Descent Angle – how steeply it lands back down.

How Swing Speed Influences Descent

All else equal, more club speed means the ball climbs higher and tends to come down steeper. Slower speeds don’t send the ball as high, so the natural descent angle is flatter.

During a fitting, we don’t leave everything “all else equal.” For faster swings we often take a little spin and loft off to stop the ball from ballooning. For slower swings we usually add launch and spin to help keep the ball in the air. The goal is the same for everyone: get you into the right landing window for your speed and shot type.

Quick fitting rules of thumb

  • Too steep (very high descent) → usually too much spin / loft, ball can “float.”
  • Too flat (very low descent) → bullets that don’t carry or hold greens.
  • • We balance loft, shaft, head, and ball to get your landing angle in the right zone.

Target Descent Angle Windows (Ball Data)

These are ball-flight targets we reference on the launch monitor. Exact numbers will vary by player, but this is the window we’re generally trying to land you in for each club type.

Club TypeSlower SpeedAverage SpeedTour-Level SpeedFitted Target Window
Driver~38–42°~34–38°~30–35°≈ 30–40°
7-Iron (benchmark)~42–48°~45–50°~48–52°≈ 45–50°
Full-swing Wedges~48–52°~50–55°~52–58°≈ 50–58°

Driver Fitting

We’re looking for a landing angle that gives you the right mix of carry and roll. If your driver is coming down too steep, we’ll trim spin/loft. Too flat, and we’ll open up launch and spin so it stays in the air longer.

Iron Fitting

With irons we’re focused on controlling where the ball stops, not just how far it flies. The descent angle tells us whether your approach shots can actually hold the green.

Wedge Fitting

For wedges, a steeper descent gives you that tour-style drop-and-stop. We’ll look at your ball, loft gapping, and shaft to dial in the right peak height and spin for your scoring clubs.

During your MB Custom Golf fitting we don’t just look at swing speed — we look at your full ball-flight picture: launch, spin, peak height, and descent angle. That’s how we build a setup that works on the course, not just on a launch monitor screen.
