What is the recommended time window for a follow-up evaluation after a club fitting?

• A. 1-2 weeks
• B. 4-6 weeks
• C. 2-3 months
• D. 6-12 weeks

Answer: (B)

After a club fitting, you want to verify the setup once the player has had time to adapt to the new clubs. The best follow-up window is four to six weeks. This gives enough time to practice and play real rounds, allowing swing changes, shaft feel, grip, and overall setup to settle. By then you’ll have more reliable data on ball flight, dispersion, and distance, plus the player can report comfort and consistency. Checking in too soon can reflect only initial adjustment rather than true performance, while waiting too long may delay needed tweaks and muddy the assessment with other factors. In the follow-up, the fitter can confirm or fine-tune loft and lie, shaft choice, grip size, and overall weight distribution to ensure the clubs truly support the player's usual swing.
