Getting fit the Henry-Griffitts way
When I was a young’un back in the early 1980s, a certain ad caught my eye. Two gents name of Henry and Griffitts had developed a method for precision fitting a set of golf clubs to any individual golfer. Since I did not have two nickels to rub together back then, I pledged to my own self that I would one day acquire me a set of those fine instruments.
Almost three decades later, that day has arrived.
This weekend, I will venture to Bradford, Pennsylvania, a mostly two hour jaunt from B-Lo, to the Penn Hills Club. There, master club fitter Corky Buckham will take my measurements, calculate my angles and create a set of clubs for me…well, at least the wedges. Mr. Buckham is one of a few Henry-Griffitts fitters within a time zone of me and I feel fortunate to make his acquaintance and avail myself of his expertise. These fellows are so few and far between that my contact had me scheduled for a five-hour sojourn to eastern NY, the next closest H-G niche.
I promise to let you in on the specifics of the operation as soon as it comes to pass. In the meantime, cyber-dance over to the company website to learn a bit more about their technique.
