DIY Fitting Guide
What You'll Need:
A friend to help with measurements
Your current putter
A golf ball
Tape measure
Smartphone with an angle measurement app (or an angle gauge)
Tip: If you don't want your spouse to know you're getting a new putter, don't ask them for help. It's better to keep it a secret for now! 😉
Step 1: Measuring Lie Angle
Stand in your normal putting stance with your current putter.
Grip the putter as you would for a typical putt.
Using your smartphone app or angle gauge, place it on the shaft of the putter.
Record the angle, rounded to the nearest degree.
Take at least three measurements for accuracy.
Step 2: Measuring Length
Identify the crease line where the top of your wrist meets the palm of your hand.
Mark this crease line on the grip of your current putter.
Using the tape measure, measure from this mark down to the sole of the putter.
Repeat this measurement three times for consistency.
Calculating Your Measurements
Lie Angle Calculation
Add all measurements together and divide by the number of measurements.
Round to the nearest whole degree.
Example:
First Measurement: 70.1°
Second Measurement: 68.9°
Third Measurement: 69.2°
Average: (70° + 69° + 69°) ÷ 3 = 69.3°
Round to nearest degree: Final lie angle = 69°
Length Calculation:
Round each measurement up to the nearest half inch.
Add all measurements together and divide by the number of measurements.
Round to the nearest half inch.
Example:
First Measurement: 34 5/8" (Round to 35"
Second Measurement: 34 3/8" (rounds to 34.5")
Third Measurement: 34 3/8" (rounds to 34.5")
Average: (35" + 34.5" + 34.5") ÷ 3 = 34.66". Rounded to nearest 1/2" = 34.5".
