The recorded image is analyzed to determine an optimal geometry of the club. The information is used to determine an optimum length of a fitted club. A system for fitting a golf club includes a camera positioned with respect to a golf ball supporting surface for recording an image of a person hitting the ball. A monitor interconnected to the camera displays the image and a grid generator generates a grid on the monitor for use in making measurements to fit the club. | |
