How important is it to do this outdoors? Anyone been fitted indoors?

I've never been fitted for wedges and am long overdue for a new set. There are so many variables that go into picking a wedge and I don't want to buy off the rack at this point.

Outdoor and anybody who says differently is an idiot. I want all my fitting outside in real world conditions.

I was fitted indoors at Impact Precision, I’m not a great ball striker but I can hit good wedge shots. They had you hit a full shot and then 50 yrd shots. I don’t remember the degree of the fitting wedge but I was fitted into the same shafts as my irons. It’s worked well for me. Really wanted some Vokeys but my numbers were better with Cleveland RTX 6 Zipcores.
I just replaced them with the new RTZ wedges.

I don't understand the concept of doing a wedge fittings inside. Most wedge shots aren't full swings from a perfect lie. You gotta have different lies, different turf conditions, sand, etc.Same reason I wanna get fit for irons, hybrids, or fairway woods on turf, you gotta know the turf interaction.

Definitely do it outdoors if possible.

I hate hitting off of mats
