What's Actually Sitting Behind the Counter

A build is only as consistent as the equipment behind it. Here's what we run, and how we check it stays accurate.

Measure

Swingweight Scale and Lie Board, First

Before any part gets pulled off the wall, your current clubs go across a calibrated swingweight scale and a lie board with impact tape. That gives us a real baseline instead of a guess based on handicap or height.

The same scale gets used again at the end of the build, so the finished club is checked against the exact number the ticket called for — not just eyeballed as "close enough."

Staying Honest

Three Checks That Keep a Build Accurate

Two-Pass Bending

Loft and lie get bent once, re-measured on the board, then fine-adjusted on a second pass instead of assuming the first bend landed exactly on spec.

Scale Calibration

The swingweight scale gets checked against a reference club weekly, since drift over time can quietly throw off an entire set.

Final Ticket Cross-Check

Every finished club gets compared back against the original build ticket before it's handed over, catching anything that drifted mid-assembly.

Finishing

Paint-Fill and Stamping Happen at the Same Bench

Numbering, paint-fill on cavity backs, and any custom stamping are done in-house rather than shipped to a separate finishing shop. That keeps the timeline shorter and means the same builder who bent your irons is the one finishing them.

It also means a re-stamp or a color touch-up after the fact doesn't require mailing your clubs anywhere — just walking them back in.
