The Club Champion Durham, NC facility is top notch, and Michael was great to work with.
He is very knowledgeable and patient, taking the time to pace me not only through the fitting but also providing pointers to bring more efficiency in my swing and overall game experience. I scheduled a full bag fitting and would recommend the same to anyone considering the service even if you're only looking to upgrade part of your set. You will get to play with the best of the best in combinations available on the market to date and even if you don't buy, the experience is well worth your time.
Being a newer golfer, I went into the experience a little hesitant, not confident that I would be consistent enough for the metrics or if I needed this much attention to my recreational playing style. Michael assured me in the beginning that at any level the fitting is necessary for new golfers, pros, and players in between, to assess if your current set up is working for or against you, as your skill develops, technology improves and as we all do; age.
Had I bought a new set-up from stock selections without coaching I would have selected a max driver, game improvement irons with standard flex shafts and a completely different styled putter. I ended up with a much more player series set up with custom length stiff flex shafts. Hitting them consistently better and noting performance increases within the metrics as well the ability to have a set I can grow with as my skill improves vs. something I would have to replace after outperforming them.
I am 100% convinced that a custom set up is hands down without comparison better than any off the shelf set up out there. The head, shaft and grip combinations are endless and psychologically knowing that every time you take your bag out at the course you can look down and know it was custom built just for you.
Great experience. Highly recommend!! read more
