I am going to get some new clubs in the next few months and will be getting fit at a local custom club-builders shop.  The question I now have, is whether blueprinting the clubs is a worthwhile investment for a mid to high handicap golfer, especially at $35 - $50 per club depending on the shaft.

Thoughts?

Tough to say if it matters short term, but as you get better it maybe a wise investment.  If you decide to do it, keep us posted so we can hear about your experience.

If the money bothers you at all I wouldn't do it.  Having clubs that are precisely consistent mixed with a swing that is not isn't going to make you a better player.  I did one set a few years ago and I loved them, I thought it was great.  My next set was off the rack and I kinda figured I justified the expense with the first set but I don't think it made that much of a difference.

My thought is that it likely won't make a difference if your game. Especially not enough difference to justify $280(3-pw) extra for your clubs.

Haha, I grew up an Irish fan in Indiana but went to Michigan.  One of the best rivalries in sports.   This years game is going to be awesome, first night game at Michigan Stadium.

This was kinda my thinking hard to justify at that price, and I believe it is probably a fair price for the amount of work that would have to be done.

Does anyone know if you can blueprint the irons later on down the road, i.e. a year or two after buying them?

      Day 3:  I tried to hit a bucket at the range but an 80 year old man (he told me his age, showed me his knee replacement scars, told me all about his chronic low back pain, etc) couldn’t pass up the opportunity to mansplain to me every little thing I’m doing wrong.  Dude, it’s my third frickin day.  I know I need to twist my hips more, I know I need to keep my head/chest down and not pop up, I know I need to hit through the ball and follow through further, yada yada yada.  I know.  That’s exactly what I’m trying to work on.  How about you tell me or show me how to do those things instead of telling me to watch Iron Byron videos?  Rough day.

      Day 132: 5/7/24 Full Speed Spectrum Training session 8/24. 7th training program overall.    Another slow session but 4 mph faster than my last session, which was my slowest ever. Going to the doctor on Friday to check on pulled neck muscle.

      Day 26: Did full swing practice after work. First 15 balls were working on top of the backswing feel, and then tried to incorporate transition feel into the next 15 balls. A's, although this will be my last season of being a fan as they leave for Las Vegas (by way of Sacramento for a few seasons). Hard to see myself rooting for the Giants, but if that's the only MLB in the Bay Area, I guess I might get on board.

      The Golf Swing Being Repeatable…

      By billchao ·

      My two cents? Don't. As a beginner that's interested in learning about the golf swing, you'll find yourself consuming a lot of information, most of which isn't even relevant to your own swing. You need to learn you can't think your way to a good golf swing. Focus on the one thing that you're working on and doing that on every swing, come what may. And remember, mishits happen.
