Abstract:
1. A method of custom fitting a game implement, said method comprising the steps of: a) selecting a fitting implement having an elongated shaft with a club head at a lower end of said shaft; b) attaching a pointing device to said shaft, said pointing device defining a projected point aligned with a centerline of said shaft so as to extend said centerline to be substantially flush with a sole of said club head; c) placing a mat on a flat surface, said mat having a baseline, a fold line, a target line and a lie angle protractor, said target line and said baseline defining a base point and said target line and said fold line defining a fold point; d) aligning a club face of said club head with said baseline while pointing said projected point at said target line and having said sole of said club head against said mat on said flat surface; e) folding said mat upward to dispose said lie angle protractor generally parallel to said shaft before or after said aligning step; and f) viewing a lie angle of said shaft on said lie angle protractor and determining said lie angle of said game implement.
