Take a look at my swingweight article on the resource page of Clubmaker Online. I mention that, for a swinger (as opposed to a hitter), a set of clubs is well heft-matched if the ratio of the MOI to the first moment is the same for all clubs. Well, that is identical to saying they all have the same pendulum frequency. So if you're fitting a swinger, that sort of "swingweight" match might be a good idea. Cheers! DaveT
