JB disagrees with JP... what are the odds?

(that's meant to be funny, JB)

Perhaps my analogy wasn't as clear as I intended, but the point I'm trying to make is that the more skillful a player becomes the more he or she benefits from delving into the deeper and more detailed aspects of the swing and the equipment they use.

A beginning golfer has enough trouble bringing the clubhead to the ball in the first place, so what type of shaft they have in their driver is of little consequence. The more a player develops, the more they will benefit from specific types of shafts and specific types of clubs. Finally, if and when that player rises to a level at which their swing is nearly perfect (or at least extremely consistent), then optimization is the final "step" in dialing in their equipment and specifications to draw the last few decimal points of performance from that swing.

That is so far off it's funny. Getting fitted can reduce 4-5 strokes.I'm sorry but fitting a 4 handicap isn't going to make him scratch.

Getting fitted is designed to help make every single club feel the exact same.This gives the golfer confidence to make good swings/shots

Being fitted helps reduce the margin of errant shots.

a scratch golfer can just about play with any set out there.He/she has the talent to adjust to them.But, why should a person have to adjust to their golf clubs.- this is the part most of you are missing

Obviously you are not in the industry and you have no intention to help others with their game. I'm unsure why you have such hatred toward the industry that is trying to help golfers play their best game.
