FTF has various meanings in the Golf category. Discover the full forms, definitions, and usage contexts of FTF in Golf.
Fingertip to Floor (FTF) is a key measurement in golf club fitting, used to determine a player's ideal club length based on their arm length and posture. This measurement helps ensure that a golfer's clubs are suited to their stance, swing mechanics, and comfort, maximizing accuracy and consistency.
FTF is measured by having the golfer stand in a natural, relaxed position, allowing the club fitter to assess the distance between their fingertips and the ground. This data is combined with height, wrist-to-floor measurement, and swing style to customize club specifications. Proper FTF fitting can enhance ball striking, reduce unnecessary adjustments, and improve overall playability.
GolfFine Tuned Foam (FTF) refers to advanced foam technology used in golf equipment, particularly in club grips, putter inserts, and ball construction, to optimize feel, cushioning, and energy absorption. FTF enhances a golfer’s ability to maintain control, reduce vibrations, and improve overall comfort during the swing.
Common applications of FTF in golf include:
- Club grips – providing a softer, more stable hold for improved traction.
- Putter inserts – enhancing responsiveness and reducing harsh feedback on impact.
- Golf ball cores – fine-tuning compression for better spin and control.
Manufacturers use FTF technology to refine performance characteristics in clubs and balls, helping players achieve more consistent feel, enhanced shock absorption, and optimized energy transfer throughout their game.
