About Doug Mael

Doug Mael has been a Certified Professional Clubmaker / Fitter for more than 25 years.

Over the past two-plus decades, Doug has performed virtually every type of clubfitting and clubmakingjob for golfers of all ages and abilities, including touring and club professionals, and professional athletes from the NBA, NFL, NHL and MLB. He has also done fittings and built golf clubs for beginner-level golfers as young as 9 years old.

Satisfied customers include a wide range of golfers, from youth and adult beginners to touring professionals. Services provided by Doug's Custom Clubs include: swing analysis leading to custom clubfitting, professional clubmaking to fit the golfer's individual swing characteristics, club customization and modification, and a variety of club repairs. Having affiliations and dealer relationships with a variety of major golf equipment and component companies, a wide array of custom fitting options are available to golfers of all abilities. Doug is also highly experienced and accomplished in the art of custom wedge grinding to fit the golfers' short game needs.

In 2013, Doug formed an affiliation with Tour Quality Golf, an Oklahoma-based clubmaking/clubfitting organization specializing in premium Tour-level and Tour-issued golf equipment and components. This affiliation enables Doug's Custom Clubs to offer its customers a broad range of golf equipment that is normally available only to the world's best professional golfers.
