Custom clubs, properly fitted and made, are
tailored to the individual golfer. As such, there are many variables considered
in the price. Much like a Rolls
Royce costs more than a Ford because of the custom design, fit and finish
of the automobile the same sort of consideration should be extended when
pricing the custom set of golf clubs. Remember, QUALITY and FIT are preeminent
in custom clubs just as they are in fine, tailored clothing.
There are several measurements and
steps taken in personal club fitting. Each full fitting session will take
one to one and one half hours to complete,
properly.
Swingspeed, swing tempo, launch angle, angle of attack, club loft, club
lie, shaft flex, shaft bend point, grip composition, size and style and individual
club features are just some of the measurements and issues taken into consideration
when custom-fitting clubs.
While
the OEM clubs, for the most part, are excellent pieces of equipment, they are
all made “regular” – whatever that means. There is no industry
standard for golf clubs. One manufacturer’s R flex shaft may be another’s
S flex or even another’s A flex. With custom clubs, you know beforehand
exactly what you are getting. As a bonus, Custom Crafted Clubs will work with
you after the sale to insure that your new clubs are “tweaked” to
your total satisfaction or your money will be cheerfully refunded.
In many cases, the quality is not only the same, but even better. The steel foundries that make the vast majority of clubheads for the OEM companies (Titleist, Cobra, Callaway, etc.) are the very foundries that make the components for the custom clubmaker. The suppliers that Custom Crafted Clubs buy from have used these foundries for years and maintain an extremely strict level of quality control. Many of our component parts are inspected numerous times before ever arriving at our shop and are rejected for even very minor variances from acceptable. For example, our clubhead weights are certified to be within stated weights by +/- 2 grams. For the exacting golfer, even those variances can be eliminated by the professional clubmaker. Custom Crafted Clubs fully warrants each club for 30 days from your receiving it, under normal playing conditions and each clubhead is warranted by the manufacturer for 1 year, under normal playing conditions. There is no warranty for mistreatment, attempted changes to the club’s characteristics or normal wear and tear. Grips have no warranty period.
