CUSTOM FITTING

One of the areas we’ve become most recognised in Peterborough for is our custom fitting experience. 

A FREE 60 or 90 minute session that allows us to understand your specification, recommend and customise new clubs to your game. The process includes hitting golf balls into an indoor swing studio simulator, operated with a Trackman radar. Once hit, the radar will immediately show data surrounding the balls performance and certain club characteristics.

With this data our expert fitting team can understand what actions to take to customise new clubs to suit your game. This can include the head model of which each brand offer 3-4 models, all offering different factors such as forgiveness and stability. It could also include changing the shaft, of which we have hundreds to enable us to find the right specifications for you. We will also adjust the lie and length of a club to encourage better turf interaction and improved results. 

To ensure each and every customer is recommended clubs that best suit them, we offer over 10,000 head, shaft and grip combinations! Fortunately our team can narrow this down quickly!

As well as the brands of head we have a fantastic range of shafts from stock options to premium, inlcuding LA Golf, Graphite Design, Fujikura and many more.

Peterborough Club Fitting

Where many of our competitors charge for this service, we choose not too for one simple reason! 

IF YOU BUY WRONG, YOU’LL BUY TWICE!

Most golfers find it too easy to buy clubs straight off the shelf, however, all clubs off the shelf are standard specifications, and we are well aware no two golfers are the same. Customised clubs are going to give you performance gains, in fact, in 2022 our Trackman data shows a collective average of 21 yards gained with a custom fitted driver over their old clubs in our Peterborough studio.

So, we don’t want to charge and restrict any golfer from finding out their true specifications.

THE BUILD CENTRE

Something we are incredibly proud of at AFGolfStore is our build centre. Located at our Peterborough store, our build service gives you the option to have your clubs built by us.

Although this service is about quality and care as well as peace of mind by ensuring the clubs you order are the exact same as the spec you were fitted for in our studio, we love giving our customers the option to guarantee their new clubs are delivered on time. 

Our builders are in constant communication with your fitter to ensure everything meets your expectations. We want to give you an experience unlike anything you’ve had before, that’s why our builders are trained and tested by the lead manufacturers to ensure our build tolerance is to standard.

HOW IT WORKS 

Once you’ve had a custom fitting, you will be given the option (should you choose to purchase) to have your clubs built in store. Our build team will:

Most importantly you will be kept up to speed with your clubs development.

We also offer this service to customers not requiring a custom fitting , who are aware of the clubs they need. Our RetroFit service also allows you to have your current set re-fitted with any adjustments being made in the build centre, including new shafts, paint upgrades and more. 

VISIT US

So if you’re looking for a golfing experience where you can feel like the pro’s, then head to Yaxley, where we will happily welcome you to Peterborough’s biggest golf store, fitting and build centre!

Meet The New Titleist TSR Driver

FIND YOUR FASTER

This years tag line from Titleist is ‘find your faster’ as they have worked hard to increase ball speeds with their new driver on the market. Meet TSR.

With new face technology and aerodynamic features, Titleist have found speed without hurting performance. 

Titleist TSR Product Range
Pictured: Titleist TSR2, TSR3, TSR4

Evolving from TSi, Titleist have introduced 3 new heads, featuring the TSR2, TSR3 and TSR4.

All looking for faster, longer and straighter ball flights through an improved aero dynamic look and advanced face technology. 

TSR 2 and 4 feature variable face thickness , which allows for a thicker centre spot with a thinner perimeter, allowing for increased ball speeds in any location of the face.  While the TSR3 offers ring variable thickness. This is centred more around precision, with better golfers benefitting from centre face strikes. 

WHAT DOES R STAND FOR?

At its core, the ‘R’ in TSR stands for refined. A declaration of TSR as the ultimate expression of the Titleist speed project. It could equally stand for the repeatable distance TSR provides with speed that shows up on every swing. Or reputation, for the legacy TSR builds on as the latest in a Titleist driver line that has

been #1 on tour for three years running. However, what matters most is that TSR is the right driver for more players than ever.” ~ Titleist

Each head is slightly different in size and appearance, to showcase a driver for every player.

  • TSR2 has the biggest head with an elongated profile for more speed and forgiveness. 
  • TSR3 is built for precision, with the COG position for optimal ball speeds from players who can offer repeatable centred strikes. 
  • TSR4 is the lowest spinning driver with a weight track to alter MOI and effect the spin. 

In comparison to TSi, there are increased ball speeds through the aerodynamic improvements and better placed COG for optimal speed. Our very own AFGolfStore,  Titleist ambassador, Ollie Fullerton saw the results for himself as they he was fitted at the Titleist national fitting centre.

SHAFT OPTIONS

  1. HZRSUS RED CB – MID SPIN, HIGH LAUNCH with counter balance (CB) for face stability. 
  2. HZRDUS BLACK 4th GEN – LOW SPIN, MID LAUNCH.
  3. TENSEI BLUE XLINK – MID SPIN, MID LAUNCH.
  4. TENSEI 1K BLACK – LOW SPIN, LOW LAUNCH.

There are 4 stock shafts on offer with a new custom option too. 

        5. GRAPHITE DESIGN UB (Up & Beyond) – LOW SPIN, MID LAUNCH.

OUR VERDICT

Our fitting at the national fitting centre was a fantastic eye opener to the product and the changes made since TSi. 

The three heads all gave impressive results, speed being the obvious improvement.  And with 5 shafts to work with it was great to narrow down to the one that gave each player their optimal performance, i.e. longer, straighter, faster shots. 

Every player will find a spec to help their game, as the beauty of modern technology is that each new model now comes with a variety of options, from head shape multiple shaft choices. 

It is a must try!
