Paige Spiranac's big urgent warning to golfers this Christmas: 'Please, please, please...'
Social media sensation Paige Spiranac posts a lengthy message to golfers about the benefits of being custom fit for their golf clubs.
Golf social media sensation Paige Spiranac - and GolfMagic for that matter - is urging all golfers to go and get custom fit for their golf equipment not just this festive season, but all the time.
Spiranac, 31, took to her Instagram Story to post a lengthy message to her followers about the key benefits of being custom fit for golf equipment instead of just simply buying clubs from off the rack.
The beauty of being custom fit for your golf clubs is that they will be custom fit to your game and your game only.
From length and lie to shaft and flex, golf brands can build golf clubs to your own desired specs to help you lower your scores.
When you buy clubs from off the rack, everything is in standard and potentially very different from what you need to be able to hit the ball straighter and longer on the golf course.
Buying clubs from off the rack is not just a big no, no from Paige, but also from us here at GolfMagic, especially if you class yourself a slightly better player or even someone that wants to become a better player in the future.

Golf equipment, as we all know, costs a lot of our hard-earned money so it's important to get everything spot on before punching in your digits.
Some golf brands offer custom fitting for free as part of a deal for buying a set of clubs, while others will charge for such a service, it all really depends on where you shop around.
But either way, Spiranac's message is exactly the same one that our very own Equipment Editor Alex Lodge constantly discusses on the GolfMagic YouTube Channel - go and get custom fit because it will be more than worth it to help improve your golf game.
Spiranac, who plays off an incredible +3.9 handicap right now, spoke at length about custom fitting via her Instagram Story on 25 November, a full month before Christmas Day.
Paige very much wants Santa to wait to fill his sack until golfers have been custom fit for their equipment should they be in the market for new clubs this festive period.

"Okay so I want to talk about something because I know holidays are round the corner and I'm sure that golf equipment is on your wish list, but please, please, please instead of that, get a club fitting," said Spiranac to her 4m followers via her Instagram Story.
"This is so you can get equipment that is fit for you. I see so many people throwing so much money away, buying clubs from off the rack that doesn't fit them and then they are disappointed.
"Everyone that you are watching on here, club professionals, teaching pros, Tour players, influencers, good players, they have all got fit for their equipment. No one that you are watching on here that is promoting something has got that club from off the rack, it has been fit and perfectly tailored for them so it helps their game.
"It's just so important because there are no bad brands out there right now. All of the golf brands are doing a fantastic job, the equipment is amazing, but you need to go and get fit to see what's perfect for you and that's a better bang for your buck.
"And I know what you're saying, no that's actually not a better bang for my buck going and buying clubs off the rack is, it's not true. Yes, more money up front to get fit, and the total number can be daunting, but think about it this way... you are investing into your game and investing into this equipment instead of buying from off the rack which is not going to work perfectly for you. It might be slightly better for you, but you're not going to see the big gains you are looking for, so go and invest in a club fitting. That way you are going to find the equipment that works perfectly. The next time a new driver comes out, you don't have to keep upgrading and upgrading, you already have a set that you can have for a very long time. You don't always need to upgrade to the best new equipment, the best equipment is the equipment that is fit for you. Yes, it's more expensive but it is so incredibly worth it so please, please, please go get fit."
Spiranac then spoke about her admiration for Club Champion, a brand she has had an association with since 2020.
"I'm not just saying this because I work with Club Champion, but I work with Club Champion because I truly believe in the fitting process ever since I have played this game at a high level," continued Paige.
"I have always got fit for my clubs as you see masses of improvement. Like I say, the equipment out there right now is crushing it, they are killing it, so finding the right combination of the head with the shaft with the grip you like is going to make a massive difference, and if you don't think that that is worth it for you and your game where it is right now, then just don't get new clubs. Don't invest in club fitting, don't buy off the rack, you can just get a second hand option, and then when you finally feel like you want a better set of clubs then save that money and invest in getting fit and instead of wasting your money buying off the rack. Please do it."
For those golfers interested in a custom fitting, they can head over to Club Champion now and use code PAIGE for a discount.
"Yes, I still have my discount code with Club Champion," continued Paige.
"I don't promote it that much, I probably should do it more because I get asked about this a lot, but you can go use that [code 'PAIGE].
"But seriously, go and get fit. If you are looking at getting new clubs this holiday season just trust me it is so, so worth it.
"I think you will also be surprised too about what brands you get fit into, because most people are like 'I'm team this brand or I'm team this brand', and then you go and get fit and you're like 'oh, this brand actually fits me best'. So going through the process, you're going to see a massive improvement. I hope that helps, and you can use my code."
