Temper Isn't Optional Here
Most shops sell you a forged iron and trust the heat treatment behind it sight unseen. We don't. Every head that reaches our bench goes on a Rockwell tester first — the certificate we hand you is built from a real reading, not pulled off a catalog page.
Six Categories, One Instrument
Every category starts with a reading before anyone talks shaft, length, or lie. A head outside our accepted band never makes it to the build bench — no exceptions for what the box says.
Driver Fitting
Cast titanium skips the Rockwell, but shaft, length and swingweight still get built from real numbers, not a demo-tent guess.
Driver details →Fairway Wood Fitting
Chosen to feel continuous with the driver ahead of it, not picked off a rack at random.
Fairway wood details →Hybrid Fitting
Closes the long-iron gap by matching feel across the transition, not just a printed loft.
Hybrid details →Iron Fitting
Every head tested and logged before the build, so nothing in the set is out of step with its neighbors.
Iron details →Wedge Fitting
Groove edges hold up longer off a properly tempered head — tested the same as the irons, then matched to real turf.
Wedge details →Putter Fitting
Length, lie and head balance matched to how you actually release through impact.
Putter details →An Untested Set Can Feel Uneven for Years
Test seven irons from a mixed production run and it's not rare to find three or four hardness points of spread between the pitching wedge and the four iron. A softer head reacts differently at impact than the harder one next to it in the bag, and most players never trace that inconsistency back to its actual source.

Hardness Check
Every head gets tested first, before shafts or spec ever come up.
Strike Read
Live swings on the monitor — contact pattern and strike sound both get watched, not just numbers on a screen.
Demo Testing
Every option on the wall is pre-tested and logged before you ever swing it.
Narrowing Down
Length, lie and shaft adjustments once a couple of options separate from the pack.
Spec Lock
Full sheet, signed off together, before anything's ordered.
Build & Recheck
A second tester reading before pickup — what left the forge matches the sheet.
Notes From Actual Sessions
Didn't know a hardness certificate was something you could ask for. Two of my irons were noticeably softer than the rest, which explained the dead feel I'd been living with.
They pulled the reading on my old wedges before touching anything. Grooves looked fine — the heads had softened enough to quietly cost me spin for a year.
Full bag rebuild, hardness certificate for every head. First time my irons have actually felt like one set instead of fourteen separate purchases.

Nothing hits the wall until it's already been through the tester once.
What Does Your Bag Actually Read?
Sessions run sixty minutes to three hours. Every one includes a printed certificate, and the fee applies toward anything you build with us.
