Warm up properly
Cold numbers are not your numbers. The session starts once your speed has settled.
Fitting session
How far you actually hit it.
Ninety minutes, every club in the bag, on TrackMan. Not the number from the one you caught flush on a summer evening five years ago — the number you can plan a shot around.

Who it is for
Book a distance analysis if…
Find the gaps. We measure every club you carry, so you know how far each one actually goes rather than how far you hope it does.

- You are always between clubs That is the definition of a gapping problem. Two clubs going the same distance means another distance is not covered at all.
- You club by feel Feel is calibrated by your best shots, which is why approach play comes up short far more often than it goes long.
- You have changed something New shafts, new lofts, a lesson that changed your delivery, or a year older. Distances move and nobody re-measures.
- You want the cheapest useful session No equipment decision, no sales conversation. Just the numbers, which are the foundation for every other decision.
Step by step
How the session runs
Ninety minutes, full bag, on TrackMan 4.
Every club, enough balls
One good strike is an anecdote. We take enough shots per club that the average means something and the outliers are visible as outliers.
Carry, not total
Carry is what clears the bunker. Total distance depends on the ground, which is not the same in July as it is in January, or at the coast as it is on the Highveld.
Map the gaps
The set is laid out end to end so the overlaps and the holes are obvious at a glance rather than buried in a spreadsheet.
Decide what to do about it
Some gaps are a bending job on the bench. Some need a different club. Some need nothing but knowing the number.
Why gapping
Two clubs doing one job means one job nobody is doing.
A bag has roughly fourteen slots to cover the distance between your driver and your putter. When a 4-iron and a hybrid both carry the same, you have not gained a safety net — you have lost a distance entirely, and it usually shows up as a shot you have no club for.
The overlap
Two adjacent clubs within a few metres of each other. Common at the top of the iron set, and almost always fixable on the bench rather than in the shop.
The hole
A stretch of distance with no club that covers it, so you are choosing between a soft one and a hard one. Both are shots you will not hit well under pressure.
The cliff
An oversized jump — often between the last iron and the first wedge — that quietly costs strokes on par threes and second shots all season.
A gapping report often points at a bending job rather than a buying decision. Bending lie and loft is R70 a club on the bench.
What gets measured
The numbers behind the recommendation.
Every session runs on TrackMan 4 with Optically Enhanced Radar Tracking. These are the parameters the decision is built on, and they are yours whatever you decide to do next.
- Club speed
- How fast the head is travelling. Everything else is scaled to it.
- Ball speed
- The energy that actually got into the ball.
- Smash factor
- Ball speed divided by club speed — a direct readout of strike quality.
- Launch angle
- The angle the ball leaves at, set by loft and delivery together.
- Spin rate
- What keeps the ball up, and what makes it climb and stall when there is too much.
- Dynamic lie
- The lie angle at impact, not at address — the one that decides start direction.
- Impact height
- Where on the face you struck it, in millimetres.
- Impact offset
- How far towards heel or toe the strike sat.
- Carry and total
- Where it lands, and where it finishes.

Questions
Before you book.
Do I have to buy clubs at the end of it?
No. The session is paid for on its own and the numbers are yours to keep. If the honest answer is that the clubs in your bag are already right for you, that is the answer you will get.
What should I bring?
The clubs you play now, and a golf glove and shoes if you have them. Measuring your current set is how we prove whether anything actually improved.
I am a beginner. Is this wasted on me?
It is the opposite. A beginner learning on clubs that are the wrong length and lie spends years building a swing that compensates for the equipment.
Which brands can you fit me into?
10 of them — Mizuno, Srixon, Cleveland, XXIO, Ping, GG Putters, TaylorMade, Cobra, Titleist, Callaway. The studio is brand-agnostic, so the recommendation follows your numbers rather than a stockroom.
How do I book, and what about availability?
Pick a time in the live diary on the booking page and the slot is yours straight away — the diary is Danie's own, so a time you can see is a time he has. If you would rather talk it through first, message him on 082 776 6750 or email danie@golfconcepts.co.za.
