I was notified today that I won a Club Champion fitting!  I will be going to the one in Atlanta and once I go thorough this experience, I will post my thoughts in this thread.

My Club Champion Fitting on 4/16/2018   When I arrived today I was greeted with a warm welcome. Rob Anderson took care of my fitting session, who I later discovered was the Regional Sales Director

Well I went in for my iron/putter fitting today and I have to say I was quite surprised.   First the putter fitting...I rolled the 7 balls and made 6 of them. There's a contraption on the shaft to

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.

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.

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!  :wub:

My location did not have a machine for snacks or drinks. They did give me a water, but I brought my own stuff as well.

 

Enjoy the heck out of it! It's a lot of fun.

Thanks for the advice and I'm looking forward to it!   I'll make sure to take my celebrex and a Tylenol on the side as I'm gonna be one stiff old rascal after this session.  :D

My location provided water. I think they also offered me snacks.

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.

Yea this is truly going to be an eye opener for me.  Hopefully I can find a good fit that will last this ole coot for years to come.   I'm not getting any younger so a good solid fitting should suffice for a long time.

I was back at Club Champion today to get the rest of my fitting finished up(Driver, fairway, other). What a day! I have blisters in places I didn't know I could get blisters. But that's what I get for hitting 200 balls.

 

 

 

Happy to see that you had a great experience at the Deerfield location.   I am heading there tomorrow to get the Lies adjusted on my irons/wedges.    Wedges are all stock lies but the irons are 3 up based on my fitting at the PGATSS, but I think that it might be too much as everything is going way left now.
