One of the newest yet most important aspects of custom fitting for a golfer is putter fitting. When you think about it, par consists of 50% putting. The better you do with putting, the better your chance for improving your score.

Tee to Green Custom Clubs is proud to utilize a state of the art putter fitting process from Tomi. Below are the details behind it - call for an appointment to get fit for improved putting!

Alignment at Address When the system is calibrated before the first stroke, zero becomes the intended target line. In any given stroke, a negative value displayed on the Tomi interface infers that the golfer was aiming left of the intended target line. A positive value infers that the golfer was aiming right of the intended target line. The golfer's goal is to execute five strokes in a row with an alignment at address as close as possible to zero, the intended target line.

Alignment at Impact The golfer's goal is to execute five strokes in a row with an alignment at impact as close as possible to zero, the intended target line.

Path at Impact The impact zone is defined as 4 inches before and 4 inches after impact. Path at impact refers to the direction in which the putter head is traveling through the impact zone. The values in the Tomi interface are directly related to the calibrated target line. A positive value infers that the path at impact is inside out; a negative value infers that the path at impact is outside in. The golfer's goal is to have a stroke path at impact as close as possible to zero, the intended target line.

Stroke Path and Rotation The top view of the stroke path is important to determine whether the golfer has a loop in his/her stroke and to see the ratio of backstroke to forward stroke. The values in the Tomi interface are directly related to the calibrated target line. The tour average of the total rotation on the forward stroke is 11 degrees for a twelve foot putt.

Shaft Angle The shaft angle value displayed in the Tomi interface refers to the shaft angle in relation to vertical. A positive value infers that loft was added; a negative value infers that loft was taken away. The tour average is to add 1.5 degrees of loft to their putter; the golfer's goal is to consistently add 1.0 to 1.5 degrees of loft at impact.

Impact Spot The impact spot should consistently be in the center of the clubface from stroke to stroke. If the impact spot is on the toe, the resulting putt will be short and right. Impact on the heel will result in the putt being short and left. The golfer's goal is to execute five strokes in a row with overlapping dots as close as possible to the center of the cross hairs.

Speed at Impact Speed must be consistent from stroke to stroke no matter what the number is. The number will always differ with the different green/carpet speed.
