Putter Fitting

The putter closes out the matrix, and it's the row most golfers have never had checked at all — picked off a rack for looks rather than fit to their stroke and posture.

What We Capture

Length and Lie Come From Your Posture, Not a Chart

We use a dedicated stroke-path capture system to log your putter's arc shape, face rotation through impact, and tempo, alongside a posture check at address. Length and lie angle are set from where your eyes and hands actually sit over the ball — not from a height-based chart that ignores your setup entirely.

Toe hang and face balance are matched to your stroke arc: a face-balanced head generally suits a straighter stroke path, while more toe hang complements an arcing stroke.

The Variables

What Actually Changes in a Putter Fitting

Length

Too long or too short changes your eye line and posture at address, which shifts start line before the stroke even begins.

Lie Angle

An upright or flat lie tilts the face relative to the ground at address, independent of how square your stroke path is.

Head Weight & Balance

Total head weight and toe hang shape how much the face naturally opens and closes through the stroke — matched to your tempo, not a generic model.

Common Misses

What a Putter Fitting Can Fix

Pulling Short Putts

Often traced to a putter that's too upright for your posture, pulling the face left of target at address before you even start the stroke.

Inconsistent Face Angle

A face-balance mismatch against your stroke arc can leave the face open or closed at impact even when your path feels repeatable.

Distance Control on Longer Putts

Length and grip weight both influence how consistently you control speed — two variables most golfers have never had adjusted.

A Putter That Doesn't Match Your Set

We check your putter's specs against the rest of your matrix for posture consistency, the same way we check every other row.

Finish the Matrix With a Putter That Fits

Bring your current putter and we'll capture your stroke, check your posture, and compare the results against alternatives in one session.
