Same Loft, Different Head, Completely Different Ball Flight

Ask most shops what decides launch and they'll point at loft. Loft is only half the answer. The other half is center of gravity — how high a clubhead's mass sits and how far it sits from the face — and almost nobody measures it before recommending a build. We do, on a balance fixture, before a single demo swing.

CG Height × CG Depth Live Rig Read
Matched Zone: Low & Back Forgiveness Priority: High Cross-Reference: Same-Swing Launch Data
The Core Idea

Two Numbers Most Fittings Skip Entirely

Inside every clubhead sits one point where its mass balances. That point can be described with two coordinates — how far up from the sole, and how far back from the face — and both move independently of loft. Drop that point lower and the ball gets airborne with less effort. Push it back and the head resists twisting when contact isn't dead center. Ignore the point entirely and you're fitting off a spec sheet that only tells half the story.

L

Low, Back

Mass pulled down and rearward raises launch and forgiveness together — usually the answer for anyone who struggles to get the ball off the ground.

M

Centered

Height and depth split evenly, producing a flight window that works across a wide range of swing speeds without leaning hard on any single trait.

H

High, Forward

Mass pulled up and toward the face flattens launch and cuts spin — typically the fix for a player who already launches high and wants more shot control.

Six Clubs, Six CG Reads

Whatever's currently in your bag gets mapped first. Then we bring alternatives to the launch monitor for a direct comparison against your own baseline — not a spec pulled off a wall chart.

D

Driver Fitting

Loft, head, and CG placement matched against your attack angle for maximum carry with a controllable miss.

F

Fairway Wood Fitting

Confidence from the deck with heads whose CG position matches your turf interaction and typical lie.

H

Hybrid Fitting

Close the long-iron gap with a hybrid whose CG placement launches high and holds greens.

Learn more →
I

Iron Fitting

Lie, loft, and length mapped alongside a CG progression so every club steps evenly through the set.

W

Wedge Fitting

Bounce and grind selected for the turf you actually play, gapped cleanly off your pitching wedge.

P

Putter Fitting

Length, lie, and face balance checked against a captured stroke arc, not a guess at setup.

Rack Head vs. CG-Matched Head

The Difference Shows Up on the Numbers

A rack driver is built around an average swing that may look nothing like yours. Match a head's CG position to your real attack angle and delivered loft instead, and dispersion tightens fast — launch stops drifting toward whatever happened to be sitting on the demo cart.

A Few Notes From Recent Sessions

★★★★★

Two prior fittings, neither one mentioned center of gravity once. A lower, deeper head cleared up a low spinny miss I'd basically given up on fixing.

★★★★★

Seeing my old irons on the fixture next to the new set on the monitor made it click instantly. No chart could've explained it that fast.

★★★★★

Went in for a full bag check expecting to spend money on a driver. Left with a gapping fix around my seven iron instead — way cheaper, way more useful.
