Club Fitting Chronicles

Your golf clubs may be affecting your swing more than you realize—and we’re not done yet.

In Part 2 of our look at how golf equipment can create swing problems, Gene breaks down more common compensations golfers make when their clubs don’t properly fit their body or their swing. From lifting instead of turning and poor weight shift to swaying, disconnected arms, posture changes, and limited wrist hinge, the movement you’re trying to “fix” may actually be your body adapting to the equipment in your hands.

Gene also shares real-world examples of golfers whose club weight, shaft stiffness, length, or swing weight pushed them into movements that made consistent contact almost impossible. Before you completely rebuild your swing, it may be worth finding out whether your equipment is helping you—or forcing you to compensate.

In this episode of Club Fitting Chronicles, Joshua and Gene dig into something Gene has seen repeatedly through thousands of fittings: golfers subconsciously change their swings to compensate for equipment that doesn't fit them.

From unusual grip positions and open shoulders to closed feet, linked hips and shoulders, extreme takeaways, and collapsing at the top of the swing, Gene explains how club weight, shaft weight, driver face angle, length, and lack of head feel can quietly teach golfers movements they were never trying to make.

Before you spend another season trying to “fix” your golf swing, it may be worth asking a different question: Is your equipment causing the problem in the first place?

This is Part 1 of the conversation, with even more equipment-induced swing issues coming in Part 2.

Is your putting stroke really the problem—or is your putter making the game harder than it needs to be?

In this episode of Club Fitting Chronicles, Gene and Josh break down the most important variables in putter fitting, including grip size and weight, counterbalancing, putter length, shaft weight, head shape, alignment aids, toe hang, face milling and inserts. Gene also explains why many golfers are using putters that are too long and shares a simple way to estimate the proper length for your natural setup.

You’ll also learn why a larger grip does not automatically improve your putting, how a small counterbalance adjustment can completely change head feel, and why the most expensive putter in the shop may not perform any better than one found at a garage sale.

The right putter is not necessarily the one being used by the best player in the world. It is the one you can aim, control and confidently use under pressure.

Are you chili dipping, chunking, skulling, or avoiding your wedges altogether?

In this episode of Club Fitting Chronicles, Joshua and Gene break down why your wedge problems might not be entirely your swing. From grip size and choking down, to wedge length, lie angle, shaft weight, bounce, sole width, and turf conditions, they explain how the wrong wedge setup can make the short game way harder than it needs to be.

You’ll learn why some golfers need bigger grips on wedges, why standard wedge lengths may be too short for taller players, how lie angle affects direction on short shots, and why bounce needs to match the ground conditions you actually play in.

Most golfers think their irons are “standard” — standard grip, standard flex, standard length, standard lie angle.

But according to Gene, that’s exactly where the trouble starts.

In this episode of Club Fitting Chronicles, Josh returns to talk with Gene about why iron fitting is one of the most misunderstood parts of the bag. They break down why “regular flex” can mean wildly different things, how shaft weight affects tempo and feel, why lighter shafts are not always easier to hit, and why many game improvement irons may actually make it harder for slower swing speed players to launch the ball properly.

They also cover grip size, lie angle myths, low center of gravity irons, offset, club length, dirty grooves, and why your clubs may be forcing you into compensations without you even realizing it.

If you’ve ever wondered why your irons feel inconsistent, why your ball flight is too low, or why your “forgiving” clubs still don’t perform the way you hoped, this episode is for you.
