Edel Putter Fitting Shaft Weight
Edel Putter Fitting The Edel putter fitting system has multiple interchangeable parts so that each part contributes to your proper aim, distance control, comfort and eye appeal. Finding the correct putter is a process. Much like choosing the correct tool you need for any job, it is important to look at all the variables before making a decision. Head Shape There are currently 6 head shapes. Head shape influences aim. Mallet styles tend to cause your aim to be to the right and thin blade styles tend to make you aim farther left. We use a laser to show where you aim with each head shape. This is a starting point and is also influenced by your personal preference – by what looks right to you. Putter Loft Each head has 5 interchangeable faces with lofts from 1 to 5 degrees. The angle your ball starts from the face of your putter determines how soon and how well it will get rolling smoothly. Heavier greens require more loft. In addition, if your putting style has your hands ahead of the putter head at impact, that effectively reduces the loft of your putter. It increases the amount of loft your putter must have. Edel putters have optional changeable faces with various lofts. Interchangeable Hosels There are over 40 hosels with offsets ranging from none (a straight hosel) to almost an inch. There are multiple lies from 4 degrees flat to 4 degrees upright so your putter is flat on the ground at address and you stroke the ball in the way that is most comfortable to you. Offset also influences direction. Lie is how vertical the shaft is when the putter lies flat on the green. Head Weight The weight of a putter affects the speed of your stroke. The heavier the putter head, the slower your stroke will be. The speed of the head at impact determines the length of your putt. Faster greens require a heavier putter so you hit the ball easier. Slower greens require a lighter putter for a fast stroke. If you play on many types of greens, Edel has optional changeable weights in the sole of the putter so you can change the putter weight to suit the greens you are playing (before you tee off). Shaft Weight Shaft weight affects balance and feel of your putter. Weights placed inside the shaft at various points or at the grip end affect hand action and greatly improves distance control (lag putting). Shaft Flex Another factor affecting feel and distance control is the flex of the putter shaft. Edel offers several different shafts to enhance feel. Angle of Your Stroke When your move your putter into the ball, it can be moving level to the ground, on an upward angle, or hit the ball with a downward motion. Each of those affects characteristics your putter should have. We fit your natural stroke. The Edel Custom Putter Fitting System Where we start with your putter fitting. Best Putters (cont'd.) Putters are a unique club in your bag. Putting technique is different from any other club. There is room for creativity & personality when you putt. Certain principles still apply to maximizing your putting consistency and accuracy. We test your equipment, aim and stroke mechanics to help you make your putting dependable and save you strokes. Extensive studies have determined the way you aim a putter is as individual as you are. Everybody processes the way they see the putter aim differently. In the golf industry's attempt to create a solution for putter sales, they have mass produced putters that are sold off the rack and not properly fit to the way you see aim. No other club in your bag is used as many times in a round as your putter. It is where you can save the most shots. Edel Golf has created a proprietary fitting system for putters much like it has for wedges, to ensure you are playing with a putter that aims the way you see as well as moving the ball where you want it to go with good distance control as well as direction. Why struggle to adjust your stroke to your putter when you can have a putter that fits you?
