Premium Golf Equipment Nassau County
You’re not looking for just any golf clubs. You want equipment that actually improves your game, feels right in your hands, and gives you confidence on every shot.
That’s exactly what happens when you get properly fitted clubs designed for your swing. Your ball striking becomes more consistent. Your distances become more predictable. Your misses become less punishing.
Nearly half of golfers expect to buy golf clubs within the next year – but most make the mistake of buying off the rack without understanding how their swing characteristics should influence their equipment choices. We’ve been helping Nassau County golfers avoid that mistake for over 60 years.

Located in the heart of Long Island’s golf community, we serve players who regularly play courses like Merrick Golf Course, Eisenhower Park, and Bethpage. We know what works on these courses because we’ve been fitting golfers for them since 1980.

Custom Golf Club Fitting Process
First, we analyze your current swing and discuss your goals. Are you looking to add distance? Improve accuracy? Play more consistent golf? Your objectives guide our recommendations.
Next, we evaluate your swing characteristics – tempo, release point, attack angle, and ball flight patterns. The trend of personalization has significantly impacted the golf club market, with golfers increasingly desiring equipment tailored to their unique preferences and swing characteristics, including adjustable hosels, various shaft options, and clubhead designs.
Then we match you with the right combination of clubhead design, shaft flex, lie angle, and grip size. We don’t just hand you clubs – we build a set that works specifically for how you swing.
Finally, we fine-tune everything and make sure you understand how to get the most from your new equipment. Our team works closely with you to fit you with equipment that’s the perfect match for your style and needs, with lessons targeted to help you perfect your game.

What golf clubs should I buy as a beginner in Merrick?
Start with a basic set that includes a driver, 6-iron through pitching wedge, and a putter. There’s growing demand for equipment that strikes a balance between quality and affordability, with golfers looking for clubs that offer decent performance without breaking the bank.
For Nassau County courses, you’ll want clubs that are forgiving on mishits but still give you room to grow. We typically recommend cavity-back irons with regular flex shafts for most beginners. The key is getting properly fitted from the start – it’s much easier to develop good habits with clubs that fit your swing than to fight equipment that’s wrong for you.
Don’t buy a full 14-club set right away. Learn with fewer clubs first, then add specialty wedges and hybrids as your game develops and you understand your preferences better.
How often should I replace my golf clubs?
Unlike the durable nature of clubs, golfers frequently refresh their equipment, but replacement timing depends more on your game improvement and equipment condition than arbitrary timelines.
If you’re improving rapidly, you might outgrow beginner-friendly clubs within 2-3 years. Advanced players often keep quality clubs for 5-10 years or longer. The real indicators are: grooves wearing smooth (especially on wedges), shafts losing their feel, or your swing characteristics changing significantly.
Technology improvements can be tempting, but the latest golf clubs offer superior features, including adjustable hosels, high-speed face inserts, and technological sensors. However, these only help if they address specific issues in your game. We’ll evaluate your current clubs and help you decide if an upgrade makes sense for your situation.
Do I really need custom fitting for golf clubs?
Yes, especially if you’re serious about improving your golf. Consumers are increasingly seeking customized golf clubs, balls, and accessories tailored to their preferences and playing style, spurring demand for custom fitting services.
Standard “off-the-rack” clubs are built for average measurements that might not match your height, arm length, swing speed, or swing characteristics. Even small adjustments in lie angle, shaft flex, or grip size can significantly impact your ball flight and consistency.
Companies like Ping focus on providing golfers with equipment perfectly matching individual swing characteristics, offering fitting technology and customizable clubs. The investment in proper fitting typically pays for itself through better performance and fewer future equipment changes.
What's the difference between cavity back and blade irons?
Cavity back irons have weight distributed around the perimeter of the clubhead, making them more forgiving on off-center hits. The hollow back design moves the center of gravity lower and deeper, helping get the ball airborne easier.
Blade irons (muscle backs) have weight concentrated behind the sweet spot. They offer more feedback and shot-shaping control but are less forgiving on mishits. Professional players often prefer blades – as one PGA Tour player noted, “These might be the most stable golf clubs I have ever hit”.
For most Nassau County golfers, cavity backs or game-improvement irons make more sense. They help you play better golf more consistently. We only recommend blades for low-handicap players who prioritize feel and shot control over forgiveness.
Should I buy new or used golf clubs?
Both options have merit depending on your budget and goals. The middle price range dominates with 48.1% revenue share, as golfers seek equipment that balances quality and affordability.
New clubs give you the latest technology, full warranty coverage, and the ability to get exactly the specifications you want. Used clubs can offer excellent value, especially for beginners who aren’t sure about their preferences yet.
Some facilities offer trade-in programs where you can trade qualified used golf clubs based on fair-market values, making it easier to upgrade when you’re ready. We’ll evaluate your budget and playing goals to recommend the best approach for your situation.
How do I know if my golf clubs are the right length?
Proper club length affects your posture, swing plane, and contact quality. Clubs that are too long force you to stand too upright or swing too flat. Clubs that are too short make you hunch over and swing too steep.
During fitting, we measure your height and wrist-to-floor distance, but we also watch how you set up to the ball naturally. Your arm length, posture preferences, and swing characteristics all influence optimal club length.
We’re dedicated to providing personalized service and expertise in golf club design and fitting, ensuring that each product meets the highest standards. Length is just one factor – lie angle, shaft flex, and grip size all work together to optimize your equipment for better golf.
