Why Next Gear Fitting Studios?
Three questions every serious golfer should answer before spending another dollar on equipment.
Just any new equipment isn’t the answer. The right equipment is.
Many golfers have been playing the same clubs for years. They just never knew when - or how - to change them.
Most clubs are built to fit a statistical average, not your actual swing. They may work reasonably well for a wide range of golfers, but they’re unlikely to be optimized for you.
That’s what a professional fitting changes. Our fitters observe your swing, then use Trackman data to confirm what they see and find the right combination of head, shaft, weight, and profile for your game. The result is equipment that works with your swing, not against it, and gives you measurable improvement.
Not a feeling. Numbers.
“I honestly can’t believe I put this off for so long. I just kept playing with clubs I picked out years ago without ever knowing if they were actually right for me.”
Not all fittings are the same. Not even close.
Most golfers’ clubs were built for an average swing - not yours. Big-box fitting bays add another problem: mats and screens can’t replicate real turf or true ball flight. Brand-sponsored fitting centers have a different limitation: they only fit their own equipment. (Of course you need what they are selling…)
At Next Gear, we do it differently. We fit outdoors, on real grass, with premium range balls and on real putting greens and in real bunkers. We use our fitting expertise and Trackman to find the right clubs for your swing - not the brand we’re trying to sell.
- Mats and rubber tees
- Simulated ball flight on a screen
- One brand's equipment only
- Real turf, every club in the bag
- True ball flight outdoors
- Every major brand, no bias
The question isn't whether it's worth it. It's whether you can afford not to.
If you play golf, you invest in golf. Maybe it’s money. Certainly it’s your time. Make the most of both.
Play clubs that fit you - not clubs designed for the masses.
A fitting costs less than a round of golf or a lesson with a pro - and a fraction of what you’ll spend on clubs. It costs far less than trying the latest driver or trendiest putter to see if that fixes things, honestly. It’s the difference between buying clubs that might work and knowing the clubs in your bag are right for you.
The fitting isn’t an add-on. It’s the part that makes the equipment purchase make sense. It helps ensure you’re getting everything you can out of the money you spend on new clubs - and, just as importantly, keeps you from wasting time and frustration trying to make the wrong equipment work.
“At first I wasn’t sure about paying for a fitting, but it was absolutely worth it. Getting the club selection right before spending money on new clubs made total sense.”
Every fitting in the catalog
Driver, irons, wedges, putter, or the whole bag - we fit it all. We help you figure out which 14 clubs make the most sense for your game. We watch your swing and ball strike, test different equipment, use Trackman to guide the process, and keep refining until you’re excited about the clubs in your hands.
The full bag
Every club, fitted together over two sessions.
- Full Bag Fitting Part 1 1h 50min
The first of two sessions covering every club in the bag. We map where your game is now and start working through the clubs that matter most.
- Full Bag Fitting Part 2 1h 50min
The second half of the full-bag fitting. We finish the remaining clubs and check gapping across the whole set. Included with Part 1.
Long game
Driver, fairways and hybrids - together or one at a time.
- Driver Fitting 1h
Dial in the longest club in the bag. We test head, loft, shaft and length against your launch numbers until ball speed, spin and dispersion line up.
- Driver Shaft Fitting 50 min
Keep the head you like and find the shaft that suits it. We test weight, flex and profile against your launch and spin numbers.
- Fairway and Hybrid Fitting 1h
Fill the gap between driver and irons. We test heads, lofts and shafts off grass until turf contact and distance gapping line up.
- Long Game Fitting (D, F, H) 1h 50min
Driver, fairways and hybrids in one session, fitted together so the top of your bag gaps cleanly instead of overlapping.
Irons and wedges
The scoring clubs, fitted for turf interaction and gapping.
- Iron Fitting 1h
Heads, shafts, lofts and lies tested on real turf. We fit for strike, launch and consistent gapping through the set.
- Iron and Wedge Fitting 1h 45min
Irons and wedges in one longer session, fitted together so the scoring clubs gap properly into the set above them.
- Wedge Fitting 50 min
Grinds, bounces and lofts tested off grass and out of real bunker sand - the shots you actually face around the green.
Short game
Wedges and putter, on real sand and real greens.
- Short Game Fitting (Putter and Wedges) 1h 50min
Wedges and putter in one session, on real sand and real greens. Everything inside a hundred yards, fitted together.
- Putter Fitting 50 min
Length, lie, loft and head style matched to your stroke and setup, rolled on a real putting green.
Also offered
- Yardage Calibration 1h
Know exactly how far you hit each club. We log carry distances across the bag on Trackman and hand you a gapping chart.
