Regripping
It is a good idea to have your clubs regripped at the beginning of each golf season. Grips lose a significant amount of their feel, and are difficult to hold onto once they have become worn or hard and slick. We have the professional knowledge to help you choose the right grip in regards to material, texture and size.
Reshafting
We have the proper tools and equipment to reshaft all types of steel and graphite shafts. We can remove and install bore-through shafts, shaft adaptors and shaft extensions. We can also adjust a player’s club to a swing weight of their preference.
Ferrule Replacement
We can replace worn and damaged ferrules to improve the look of your club. We can re-epoxy loose or unattached heads, and remove annoying rattles caused by small pieces that can come loose inside the clubhead.
Loft and Lie Adjustment
Lie angle has a significant effect on directional control. A lie angle that is too flat will cause shots to go right of the target. A lie angle that is too upright will cause shots to go left of the target. We use our dynamic fitting method with each player, then use our Mitchell Steel-Club Angle Machine to adjust your equipment to the exact loft and lies.
Putter Loft and Lie Adjustment
40 percent of your total strokes in a round of golf are with your putter. Making sure your putter has the correct lie and loft for your stroke is essential for consistent putting. We use our Mitchell Tour Gage Putter Machine for precise adjustments based on your address and putting method.
Shaft Frequency for Shaft Matching
Frequency is a measure of the flex of a shaft, and is defined by how many times per minute a shaft oscillates. The units of frequency are known as cycles per minute, or cpm. A shaft with a higher frequency is stiffer than one with a lower frequency. By using frequency as a method of comparing two different shafts, it is obvious which shaft is stiffer and by how much. Typically, there will be 10 cycles difference between shaft flexes. It is important to realize that there is no flex standard in the golf industry. One company’s Stiff may be another company’s Regular. Frequency offers the ability to duplicate a favorite club or a friend’s club that a player hit well. We use our Mitchell Digi-Flex Frequency Machine to match a head/shaft combination best fit to the player.
