Is Putter Fitting Worth It?
Quick answer
- Yes, for most golfers. A putter at the wrong length or lie angle changes your posture and where the face points at address. A fitted putter lets you set up the same way on every putt.
- At Incred, the fit is part of the order. You choose your build in the configurator on the product page before checkout. There is no separate fitting fee.
- A fit sets eight things: hand, length, lie angle, head weight, shaft, grip, headcover and face material. Loft is set at the standard 3 degrees on every putter.
- Every Incred putter ships in 10-15 days. Custom, Premium and Bespoke putters are built to order and assembled in the USA.
The putter quiz asks 10 questions about your stroke, your miss and the greens you play. It takes about 90 seconds and sends $100 off. For a personal recommendation, message Nakul, the founder.

| Setting | What it controls | Your options |
|---|---|---|
| Hand | Which side of the ball you stand on | Right-hand at every level. Left-hand at the Bespoke level. |
| Length | Your posture and where your eyes sit over the ball | Regular 31" to 38", Counterbalanced 35" to 40", Armlock 35" to 44", Broomstick 40" to 50" |
| Lie angle | How flat the sole sits on the green at address | 67° to 73°, plus 76° and 79°, on every configuration |
| Head weight | How the head feels through the stroke | 350 to 420 g on Regular and Counterbalanced; 450 to 560 g on Armlock and Broomstick |

How fitting works at Incred
Fitting happens online, in two steps.
- The putter quiz. Ten questions, including your handicap, putts per round, biggest frustration, stroke type and green speed. It sends $100 off and opens the builder at the level that fits your budget.
- The configurator. On the product page you pick a level, a configuration, then your hand, length, lie angle and head weight, then your shaft, grip, headcover and face material. Your build is saved with the order.
The lie angle starts at 70 degrees, so you can check out with the standard setting if you have never measured yours. The configurator shows a running total as you build.

The measurements that decide a fit
Three of the eight settings change how the putter meets the ball. They are length, lie angle and head weight. The other five set feel and look.
Length
Length sets how far you bend and where your eyes sit over the ball. A putter that is too long pushes your hands up and your eyes inside the ball line. A putter that is too short pulls your shoulders down. To find a starting length, take your normal putting posture with your arms hanging relaxed. Have someone measure from the floor to the top of your top hand. Regular builds run from 31 to 38 inches, so most golfers fall inside the range.
Lie angle
Lie angle sets how the sole sits on the green. When the lie matches your posture, the sole sits flat. When the toe sits up or the heel sits up, the face points off the line you aimed. Every Incred configuration offers 67 to 73 degrees, plus 76 and 79 degrees for golfers who stand closer and more upright.
Head weight
Head weight changes how the putter moves through the stroke. A heavier head is harder to move with your hands and wrists. Owners often describe the weight as the thing that steadies their stroke. Regular and Counterbalanced heads run from 350 to 420 grams. Armlock and Broomstick heads run from 450 to 560 grams to match the longer shaft.
What the head does once you are set up
A fit gets you to the ball the same way every time. The head design decides what happens when you still miss the center. Incred commissioned robotic testing from an independent lab. A gravity-driven robot struck each putter at a controlled 8 mph, on the center and half an inch toward the heel and toe. Every putt was captured on the Quintic Ball Roll system at 1,100 frames per second, with 36 putts per putter.
| Measurement | Result |
|---|---|
| Face twist on half-inch heel mishits | Incred putters averaged 0.13°. The best-selling field averaged 0.52°. |
| Impact ratio, RFB Black Mallet (center / heel / toe) | 1.71 / 1.69 / 1.70 |
| Impact ratio, RFB SK1 (center / heel / toe) | 1.68 / 1.67 / 1.69 |
| Ball speed half an inch off center | About 99% of a center strike |
Impact ratio is ball speed divided by head speed. A steady ratio across the face means steady distance on mishits. Full tables are on the performance page.
That testing is the basis for our headline claim: the RFB® is 500% more forgiving. Reverse Face Balanced® puts the center of gravity in front of the shaft, so the putter balances face-down. The most forgiving putter page has the full comparison.
Expect three to five putts before the putter feels natural. Play the ball in the center of your stance.
Build yours
The quiz sends $100 off and opens the builder at the level that fits your budget. The RFB Black Mallet is the mallet with the highest forgiveness in the RFB Series. The RFB SK1 is a fang-style head and the most popular Incred putter overall.
