Decisions
Every fitting method has real strengths and real limits. Here is an honest account of where TruePath fits, what it costs and what it can and cannot tell you.
01 / AI fitting vs traditional fitting
A traditional fitting evaluates the heads and shafts present in one location on one day. TruePath evaluates a modelled equipment universe — 150,000+ combinations with Pro, 1,000,000+ with Elite — using a consistent method for every golfer. Traditional fitting tests what you can hit; TruePath analyses what you could play.
02 / Online vs in person
In person, you feel the club and a fitter watches you swing. Online, you trade that immediate feedback for breadth of analysis, unhurried full-bag consideration and no dependency on the swing you happen to have on the day. Many golfers use both: analysis first, then confirm feel before ordering.
03 / Independent vs manufacturer fitting
A manufacturer fitting selects the best option within one brand's catalogue. TruePath evaluates major clubhead and shaft manufacturers together, with no requirement to buy clubs from NORBU Golf and no inventory to move.
04 / Full bag vs single club
Replacing a single club can create a gap or a duplicate distance elsewhere. TruePath designs the bag architecture first, then fills each slot — which sometimes means keeping clubs you already own.
TruePath™ independence
Tour professionals often have contractual equipment relationships. Most recreational golfers do not. A golfer choosing equipment should have the freedom to evaluate what best fits their game, and TruePath is designed around that principle.
This is a point about consumer freedom and brand-neutral methodology — not a judgement on any fitter, manufacturer or professional’s equipment.
What it costs

Competitor prices are the providers' own published standard rates, checked September 2026, and are subject to change — check each provider directly before deciding. PXG's $125 full-bag price is for a fitting into PXG equipment only, not a brand-agnostic fitting.
