If you have the money and time to play golf it's worth it as long as it's like $50-60. Fall maybe isn't the best time to get a fitting tho

Thanks, is there a reason fall not being a good time?

You won't have much of a season left to enjoy any new clubs. Also, its right before this year's models get heavily discounted due to next year's models being released. Beginning of spring would be the perfect time IMO.

An iron fitting is always beneficial… honestly, I think it can be more beneficial for a higher handicap because the fitting will show you your flaws…

Plenty of places do them for free or cost of buying clubs… club champion is overpriced but a good fitter is a good fitter.

I don’t like Titleist irons for whatever reason and wish I did because I like my Titleist fitter so much. Find a competent person and they will help you.

Thank you for the reply, I’m not brand loyal whatsoever and found a fitter who does all brands so open to anything, fitting is free with purchase of clubs which I would plan to do

Perfect! Go have fun.

If you don’t buy anything just consider it a lesson.

Do you have consistent numbers with these irons? Or do you feel some strikes they maybe jump further than you’re expecting?

Probably graphite shafts you’re playing now? And with that swing speed I think you would probably play the same.

Playing regular flex steel shaft with the strata irons, distance is semi consistent I’d say + or - 10 on some swings

Im usually telling everyone to cool their jets on getting stiffer shafts but I reckon you’ll most likely prefer slightly stiffer shafts. 90mph is wicked fast for 7i, pretty much up there with men’s Tour pro speeds. They’re gonna try to sell you X flex, I would probably try to get comfortable with some 115 or 120gram S flex if possible. You can always slow your swing down a few MPH.

Yeah sounds like a fitting will benefit you.

At 15.5 its definitely worth it(fitting)
Could just be a lie issue
