Custom Club Fitting, Club Building and Repairs Module
In our continuing mission of educating true professional golf teachers, this module is separate from the primary syllabus. Not only will this module increase your knowledge; benefit the player himself or herself, but also to afford the golf pro an ancillary income generating opportunity.
Available only for the 5-Day On Site Course and Business & Marketing Module attendees.
A minimum of 6 students per class is required. $100.00 – 4 hours
Take a walk up and down the driving range, and a few things immediately are observable:
- Not All Golfers Talk the Same
- Not All Golfers Swing the Same
- Not All Golfers Dress the Same
Only when you can put the same swing on every golf club, can you compete at the highest level and achieve results truly commensurate with your ability.
Probably the best example of this commitment to precision tuned and precision manufacturing, was when the great Ben Hogan invited Jack Fleck to the Hogan factory in Fort Worth to be fitted a set of precision Hogan golf clubs. The difference to Jack Fleck’s game resulted in his winning of the 1955 US Open over none other than Ben Hogan himself in a playoff.
Today all tour players today are precisely fit and most equipped with precision golf sets. There are 14 different considerations to include when custom fitting a set of clubs. On the other hand, the majority of the general golf public is stuck with off the shelf, mass- produced, inferior sets of clubs that do not match their swings.
So what’s the point? Custom Fitting is BACK. BIG TIME and we are not talking about the major manufacturer’s “Golf Fitting Carts” found on ranges and country clubs. Another favorable consideration – custom fitting runs about the same price as off the shelf clubs and if one has access to custom fitting, it would be well worth the time and effort.
Benefits:
- Taught by Professional Clubmakers’ Society members in their shops
- Learn to build, repair and fit golf clubs
- Offers student total service under one roof
- Lucrative cash generating option
Learn to build, repair and fit golf clubs. You will be taught how to determine loft, lie angles, shaft types and shaft replacement, shaft flexes, length, grip size and grip replacement, kick points and head designs and refinishing that will allow your customer/student to obtain the best possible clubs suited for his game.
