Custom Fitting Single Length Irons

All human beings share the same skeletal, muscle, tendon, and joint functions and from a mechanical standpoint are the same regardless of height or sex. Non-mechanical differences arise in custom fitting however, for instance: the height of a bicycle seat needs to be greater for a taller person than a shorter person even though the mechanical design of the bicycle remains the same. By the same token, there is only one true fitting variable in the building of golf clubs and that is club length. Based on your wrist-to-floor measurement, we adjust your club length to correspond to our clubheads' lie angle to ensure a proper fitting.

Wrist-to-Floor MeasurementTaking your Wrist-to-Floor Measurement:
  • The wrist-to-floor measurement should be taken while standing on a hard surface.
  • Wear jogging/gym shoes (not golf shoes) not in excess of 1.5" sole.
  • Stand with your back against the wall at strict military attention. Place your shoulders and head against the wall, your feet together, and your arms rigid and straight down at your sides.
  • Hold a pencil in your right hand (right handed golfer). Back your arms against the wall and then take the pencil and make a mark where your left wrist joint hits the wall. Just the opposite for a left-handed golfer.
  • Measure from this mark to the floor.
  • Important: Do not round-up the measurement to the next higher inch increment. For instance, if your measurement is 34 and 7/8″, do not round up to 35″.

NOVA and GRIA Hybrid Club Lengths


How to correctly measure your clubs:

Club length is properly measured by placing the golf club in the address position with the scoring lines on the club face parallel to the ground and then measuring directly alongside the shaft from the butt end of the grip to the point where the shaft would intersect the ground if it extended through the heel of the club head.

Very Important:

Do not order based upon what you consider to be your favorite iron (ie: #7 iron), and do not use that corresponding wrist-to-floor measurement when placing your order. When ordering you need to specify your actual wrist-to-floor measurement to ensure a proper fitting. This chart reflects club length based upon our club-head lie angles. Consequently, our fitting process does not apply to any other brand.

For the taller golfer:  based upon your wrist-to-floor measurement you may be concerned that your irons would be a typical #3 or #4 iron club length; however, do not compare your measurement to your current #3 or #4 iron. The lie angles of your “long” irons are much flatter than ours which, at your size, requires you to bend over excessively and reach out for the ball at address. The club head lie angle of our irons is 63.5º which is far more upright and allows you, for the first time, to stand upright and much closer to the ball at address resulting in the ideal upright swing posture and swing plane. The taller golfer benefits the most from our fitting formula since they have never played golf clubs that have even come close to fitting them properly. The result being that they have had to develop a very inefficient posture and swing where they are bent over excessively and reaching way out for the ball with every iron in the bag.

How Does the Wrist-to-Floor Measurement Work?

It is based upon trigonometry. At the point of ball impact in the downswing, your wrist, the ground, and the clubhead, form a right triangle. Assuming an ideal swing posture, there is a non-linear mathematical relationship between your wrist-to-floor measurement while standing at attention and your wrist-to-ground distance at ball impact.

The clubhead lie angles are known for the irons and fairway woods as well as the length of one side of the right triangle based upon your mathematically factored wrist-to-ground distance at impact. This gives us the measurement of two angles and the length of one side. We then use trigonometry to solve for the hypotenuse or club length. This is somewhat oversimplified as we factor in shaft deflection and numerous other factors. The fitting formula that we developed produces the ideal golf club length for anyone regardless of height or arm length.

To our knowledge we are the only golf club manufacturer in the entire industry who offers a full money-back return policy on golf clubs after they have been played which should tell you volumes about our commitment to our customers.

A return authorization must be obtained before we can accept a return of merchandise. Contact us for this authorization on-line through the Contact page of this website. Shipping/handling charges are not refundable. All contents listed on the original Packing Slip must be included for a full refund. Return shipping charges are the responsibility of the customer. Our return policy is only valid once per customer. Any alterations to the original golf club voids this policy.

Also, be sure to make clear that you (the shipper) are responsible for all shipping charges and any brokerage/storage/handling/duties and taxes incurred. We will not accept any return package where a payment is due - the shipment will be returned to you at your cost.

Limited Warranty

We warrant our golf clubs to be free of defects in material and workmanship for a period of one year following the original ship date. We will, without charge to the original purchaser, repair or replace the club if it proves to be defective during normal use within this period (normal use does not include misuse or abuse and the associated damages ie: dents on the top, side, rear, or sole of a wood club-head). This does not cover grip or cosmetic wear and tear due to normal usage. Any alterations to the original golf club voids this warranty.

Absolute game changer.

I absolutely love my Blackstone 1 iron clubs and how easy they are to swing. Initially I was a little worried about how I would "cope with" the degrees on the clubs instead of the club number. The distance clips have taken the worry out of the equation. I check my range finder and see what distance I need for my next shot, then I simply grab the club with the distance clip that matches that number. It is as easy as having the right tool for the job.

Distance at the ready

These distance clips fasten directly to your clubs where they provide instant distance reference each time you pull a club. You'll never confuse the 9 and the 6 irons again. Just an added touch of confidence added to your game.

Nice visual to aid in club selection

Nice visual to aid in club selection. The clips ride nicely on club shaft, and will help with selecting correct club, sometimes can use the clips when the need to choke down is present.

Great distance reminders!

These clips are easy to install and don't get in the way of anything. I changed from one set to an older set that had very different lofts, and therefore different distances for each club. These clips provide a quick reference for the distance for each club.

No more guessing!

Worked as advertised. As I get more into golf shape I know that my distance will increase, these will help me to know what distance I'm hitting my clubs as I start to hit longer as the golf season goes from the cold spring to the warmer summer months. Can't wait! No more guessing.

Helpful!

As I am getting use to my 1 Iron/Gria single length clubs (I love 'em!), the distance clips have been helpful in determining which club to use. My only wish is that they were a little more "snug" around the shaft so that they wouldn't slide when putting a club bag in the bag.

Ralph C. (Redding, US)

I stopped using the clubs and went back to my old clubs I don't like the degrees I like to know what number my club is, I could never figure out the yardage I stopped hitting greens I'm going to sell the clubs at a big loss

Disappearing numbers

After only one round of golf, some of the numbers have rubbed off, or chipped off, my Distance Clips. Kind of defeats the purpose, but otherwise a great idea.

The writing on them wore off in a week.

Hi! Thanks for letting us know, we are assuming it was a bad batch and have sent you a new set. We all have been using the same original set for years without this issue, so please let us know if you have the same issue with the replacement set. Thanks again!

So cool

I have a hard time recalling my typical club range. These little clips are just the ticket. An added bonus is, they are just as easy to move as they are to install. Now I can check the clip and decide the loft that I might change to. Just one less thing I have to concentrate on.
