Mike Bednarcik - Maryland's only 4 Time Clubmaker of the Year
 

 WOW!

    Marylands only:

      4 Time         Clubmaker of the
Year

Will your Clubmaker skip any steps in putting together a graphite shafted club?     We Don't!

What are:

Countersinking – Deburring – Sandstone Coning

• Unlike many Internet Clubmakers, CUSTOM CLUBS OF FREDERICK takes that extra step to insure your graphite shafted clubs will resist premature breakage and therefore perform with superior quality. When we put a graphite shaft on a club head we perform three additional steps that most of our competition does not do, or does not want to take the time to do. Those steps are:

1. Countersinking: This is a process that is essential and highly recommended by graphite shaft manufacturers and may in fact void some shaft warrantees. The top 1/8" of an investment cast iron or metal wood hosel is countersunk at a precise 20-degree angle to prevent the sharp edge of the rim from cutting into the graphite fibers and causing shaft failure.
    
2. Deburring: This step removes the residual burrs that remain after the countersinking process.
    
3. Sandstone Coning: This is the final step which is performed using a sandstone coning bit that removes the remaining edge that is left after the deburring process. This leaves a very smooth surface allowing the epoxy to effectively form a cushion between the graphite shaft and the hosel rim creating the optimum graphite shaft installation.

This is a necessary but often overlooked process in the clubmaking industry. It is a more time consuming and precise procedure that requires advanced training and experience.

• What else do we do? We hate to brag, but we also take the time to weigh each and every component (club head, shaft, and grip) before assembly. Not every component comes from the foundry or manufacturing plant weighing exactly the same. Even the best club heads come with a +/- 2 to 3 grams each. Once we know what the weight makeup of each of the components is, we can adjust each finished club to swing weight the same. All of our clubs will swing weight to within +/-1 swing weight point. This insures that each club will feel and swing like all the rest.  Another important feature that is often overlooked.

In conclusion, the clubs you get from CUSTOM CLUBS OF FREDERICK are made by hand, and by a professionally accredited craftsman who truly cares about quality and our reputation. We have been in business for years and enjoy a great referral business.

That is the trademark of quality.  

Quality you can be a part of by having CUSTOM CLUBS OF FREDERICK custom fit you for your next set of clubs.

Does your Clubfitter have this in his / her shop?

We do.

Zelocity Purelaunch Swing Analyzer - Perhaps the ultimate in swing analyzers and ball launch measurement machines on the market.  We have it.

Distance Caddy - Another Ball flight and club performance analyzer.  We use this machine for our outdoor fittings and also set it up at Golf Outings as a long drive hitting station. 

Frequency Machine - A must for any clubmaker.  This allows us to measure any raw shaft or completed club to determine it's relative stiffness and to determine shaft-to-shaft consistency.

Demo Clubs - Of course we have them.  We have at least 30 - 40 demo clubs that out customers hit to help determine which head - shaft combination is best for them.  We have them in both 6 irons and drivers.

Indoor Hitting Station - We have a complete indoor hitting station to complement our Swing Analyzers and to allow our customers to hit virtually any club indoors.

Professional Shaft Extractor -  The professional method for pulling graphite shafts.

Mitchell Professional Loft / Lie Machine - STATE OF THE ART - To make loft and lie adjustments allowing a custom fit for any golfers swing.  The Mitchell machine is the most advanced and accurate of its kind.

Dust Collection System - We developed and built our own dust collection system to attach to the following machines: Shaft cut off wheel, Scotch-brite wheel, Buffing wheels, Tip prep and ferrule turning station.

Spine Finder - We have a "Spine Finder" which allows us to locate the natural  bending point of each shaft.  This allows us to custom fit each shaft to make them play as consistent as possible.

Club Specifications Machine - This machine measures virtually all clubhead specifications to precise tolerances allowing me to maximize current technology.

Digital Weight Scale - To accurately weigh component parts, such as clubhead, shaft and grip prior to installation permitting us to obtain the most exacting specification possible.

Motorized Shaft Cutter - The quickest and most efficient way to cut individual shafts accurately and without residual burrs.  We have a Mitchell shaft cut off wheel attached to a motor.  A must for the quantity of work done in a shop my size.

Buffing Wheel - We have a dual buffing wheel set up to polish and shine club heads.

Digital Dial Calipers - Measures either inside or outside dimensions on anything up to 5", calibrated in 1/64" increments giving me exact measurements on grips, shaft butts and club extensions.

These are just a few of the many tools required for a competent work shop.  We are constantly adding and upgrading my workshop to have the best technology available to meet the changing needs of the golf component and repair industry.

CUSTOM CLUBS OF FREDERICK is classified as a medium volume shop and plans to stay this way in order to continue to offer  first rate quality service in a timely manner.
