Inside Mizuno’s high-tech club fitting experience

Brad Clifton from Australian Golf Digest heads to the Mizuno Performance Centre in Melbourne to experience a full professional club fitting powered by Mizuno’s 3D Shaft Optimiser and advanced SwingDNA analysis. Rather than relying on traditional shaft flex labels, the fitting captures key swing characteristics, such as tempo, clubhead speed, release factor, and detailed shaft bend profiles, to build a truly personalised equipment recommendation.

Throughout the session, Brad tests multiple shaft options while also being precisely fitted for club length, lie angle and grip size to suit his swing mechanics and physical build. The process extends beyond irons to cover set makeup, loft gapping and even golf ball selection. The result is a clear, practical look at how modern fitting technology removes guesswork and helps golfers get the most out of their equipment through data-driven, tour-level customisation.
