    I am getting ready to be fitted and buy a new set of irons for the first time since...well the 80's. I want to know what the best questions to ask and what information was most important to others from their fitting experience.

    I feel sure I want the AP1's but am open to what is the best fit.

    Thanks in advance for your response.

    Questions for me come naturally as I go through with a fitter. I don't have a list ready ahead of time.

    I let the fitter know what I'd like to try and then we rule out any options that just dont feel right. Don't be afraid to speak up. The fitter might see a shot that looks great to them but it just doesn't feel good to you. Thats ok. Tell him. Results aren't the only thing. You have to enjoy the clubs too.

    Good advice. I always let the fitter know what Titleist equipment I want to be fitted for up front. Driver, Fairways, Hybrids, Irons, Wedges or Putters. He or she then asks questions and it just flows from there. Enjoy the fitting and your future rounds.

    Relax. Enjoy. And let the fitter do the fitting. It's like going to any professional. You don't tell them what to do. Listen. Be patient. And let the pros do their job.

    just go there, don't think too much and hit some nice shots.
    The fitter will do his part of the job and suggest the right club head, shaft and setting for you.

    enjoy it

    Before you get fit put some duct tape from ear to ear then you won't have to pick up your jaw from how awesome of an experience it is!

    I say do your research and see what you think you would like but try everything the fitter hands you. Don't look at the type of club or shaft, just swing your normal swing. Most definitely provide feedback on how it feels. The fitter will get the right head/shaft combo!

    BH,

    A few questions that come to mind are what are the distance gaps going from club-to-club of the new iron set your are considering. Also, I would want to know how to transistion from my iron set into my wedges. What wedge lofts and bounce would the fitter recommend. What type of shaft is best for my swing? Also, as there are so many choices now, what long distance clubs are better for your swing? Is a metal wood better suited for you than a hybrid, or maybe a long iron may be better for you? What lofts would the fitter recommend for your long game. Also, if you think you finally have your set nailed down, find out exactly what grips come with your clubs and see if there is something more comfortable for your grip. Also, do you need a large, medium, or small grip due to hand size. Ask if they have a free service, where they will periodically check your lie angle and will adjust if necessary. Lie angles over time do change especially if your a range rat. These are just a few questions that come to my mind.

    Best Wishes,

    DV
