00sportsman Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 Ok folks Monday is my big day! I'm looking forward to my first ever driver fitting! I've been fit for irons on more than one occasion but never the big stick. If I hit the ball like I did Thursday I will be embarrassed however I guess those folks are use to hackers as well good players.OG, I had my first ever fitting of any kind on Thursday for my G400 driver, and let me tell you it was enlightening. If your fitting is anything like mine, you'll be some glad you did it. But you probably know that already...

No it's only a driver, fairway, hybrid fitting although I may upgrade if they are up for it. Or I may say since you all threw me to the wolves you can check my irons and putter while ya at it. Just kidding of course as these folks have been awesome working with me as I have had to cancel more than once. Not to mention after swinging a driver etc. for three hours I will be hollering Uncle for sure.

ole gray Posted April 16, 2018 Author Share Posted April 16, 2018 That is a long way to go. Then DEFINITELY get some rest. Bring some Gatorade and snacks. Don't take too many warm up swings as they'll throw out some of the ugly swings anyways. And go in with an open mind. Know what you want to accomplish, but don't be set on a certain brand/type. They'll guide you in the right direction. And ask questions.... lots and lots of questions. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk Do they have a vending machine for snacks and drinks? I'll do as you say however it would be nice if they have a drink machine on site. Today is my fitting so I'm pumped to say the least! I'll be heading over to Atlanta around 11:00 today. My fitting is at 1:00 so I'll have time to stop for lunch and get my body fueled up. I hope I find the driver of my dreams today!

juspoole Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Have a great time. I just missed the half off window as I didn't realize that my area had a club champion until mid February and by that point I didn't have the time to book. Been watching the tour experience golf videos on youtube which seems very similar to club champion and it has me itching to try it. I'm like you in I have only really been fit for irons and usually I do change the shaft but just look at specs (low spin and flex and kick point) although I really don't know half of what I need.
