He asked me what I had done to snap the shaft in 2 .. I said it was in my back swing .. he immediately knew my game .. too tight of grip and too much power coming from the wrong place .. he had me hit some balls in the simulator and adjusted 2 things and explained 2 things and in 3 swings I was straight down the middle .. I was blown away when I went to the range.. 30 balls and only 2 went right !! I have played a fade on good days and a banana ball most days for 25 years !! For the first time I was hitting a draw off the tee ! This place might not look like Gold but it is!!

I recently visited Ken's Quality Golf and was very impressed with the service I received and the…read morequality of everything I purchased. I had needed a set of golf clubs but didn't want to pay the price of the name brand or sporting goods stores. A friend recommended Ken's Golf and I am so glad they did. I bought a great set of clubs that were almost identical to the Callaways I had seen online. Ken made sure the sizing was correct and even recommended specific grips that more properly fit my hands. He told me he could put the new grips on in a couple of days, which he did after I purchased the clubs. Ken has a practice area right in the store where I could swing my new clubs and get a feel for how great they would be on the course. I also ended up purchasing a gently used golf bag and pull cart for a fraction of the price of what they were new. I'm looking forward to using all of my new golf equipment and taking some strokes off of my game. Thanks Ken ! - so glad I found your shop.

I walked into Bay Golf Exchange fully prepared to confirm my long-standing belief that golf is the…read moreabsolute worst. For context: I hate mini-golf. Hate. Five lifetime attempts, five exits thinking, "If this is golf, burn it all down." Topgolf? Even better--nothing like slamming a club into the ground, rattling your entire skeleton, and wondering if you're about to yeet yourself off a balcony mid-swing. Hard pass. I'm a motorcycle-riding, scuba-diving, ripped-jeans, tattooed "this seems like a bad idea, let's do it anyway" kind of person. Plaid pants and polite clapping? Could not be me. Golf people? I had my doubts. But I made a deal with a friend: they'd ride motorcycles with me if I tried golf with them. They're now on a bike. So here I am, betraying my entire personality. Enter Matt. Before I even showed up, his messages were funny, patient, and--annoyingly--welcoming. So I went in, fully expecting to hate every second of it. Three hours later... I'm out here questioning my life choices. This man didn't just sell me clubs. He basically performed an intervention. He taught me how to hold a club (turns out I was doing... whatever chaos that was before), explained why Topgolf wrecked my shoulder, and somehow made sense of why mini-golf made me irrationally angry. Then he had me swing different clubs until we found ones that actually felt right--which, again, was new information to me. And just when I thought we were done, he starts adjusting everything. Cutting clubs down. Fixing my stance. Watching me swing. Adjusting again. Demonstrating. Repeating. Encouraging. Over and over until I went from "this is stupid" to "wait... I want to try that again." And here's the thing that stuck with me--his passion is clearly not in retail. After all, he asked me what my budget was in the beginning and stayed right in my paltry budget. His passion is in getting people to feel this sport. You can tell he genuinely wants you to catch whatever this is so you'll just... go. play. Not buy more stuff. Not overthink it. Just go be out there hitting a ball around and somehow enjoying it. I left with clubs that actually fit me, a swing that doesn't feel like I'm dislocating something, a bag, balls, tees and--this is the worst part--I'm excited to go back. It's taken me way too long to write this review because I've been busy turning into the exact person I used to make fun of. If you need me, I'll be at the driving range, voluntarily, like some kind of addict. Matt is the real deal. If you think you hate golf, if you just need a good person to explain it all- who won't make you feel like you don't belong, congratulations (!) you're exactly the person who should go see him. I'll never buy golf equipment from anyone else.

Was told that the clubs now are worth only $250 trade in value towards store credit. Seriously! Only worth $250 when they bragged about how good the clubs were the week prior. Shame on me for not seeing the tiny return policy sign but they were dismissive of me and did nothing to work with me. It felt like a used car experience. Not what I expected from a well known national chain. Will never step foot in their store again and will tell this story to all of my golf buddies and members at my club.

Had a completely disappointing experience recently which involved the owner of "Your Golf Shop", a…read moregentleman named Jeff Webster.. my son was just in town, and while golfing we noticed that his driver head was cracked, so after the round I called "Mike" at the Port Charlotte location, as he's been my guy for years there, and personally fitted my son for his Mizuno 243's, and me for my Callaway ai Smoke HL irons (4-SW).. and Mike told me that they couldn't do anything, as it was well outside of warranty, but suggested that I contact PING personally, as in his words, "sometimes they will work with you", so I did.. and after speaking with PING's customer service people, THEY made the decision to replace my sons G410 Plus, with a brand new driver free of charge.. I never asked for anything free, and simply wanted either repair options through them, or fair trade in value towards a new one.. I was in fact blown away by what they chose to do, as was my son.. Well apparently PING's decision to replace the club outside of the warranty period didn't sit well with the owner of "Your Golf Shop", as when I called him for a tracking number for my sons driver to reference with PING, who claimed to have not received it yet, he unloaded on me with all of his opinions related to this case.. I'd add that none of his opinions were informed, or asked for in this particular instance to be quite honest, as his only role in this as an authorized PING retailer was to initiate the club swap by shipping it back, and opening the repair case with PING, which direct consumers apparently cannot do, so they directed me to go to the golf shop.. but those facts didn't stop Jeff from weighing in with his own baseless version of what he obviously convinced himself had happened, and telling me essentially all about myself, as in his mind I was "gaming the system", and unworthy of such a gesture from PING.. He even accused my son and I of altering the club, claiming that the shaft in it didn't belong to that particular model, which again is nowhere near true, and another of Jeff Webster's many fictions, as my son was fitted for it by PING at a demo day in New Jersey at my home golf club, Battleground CC.. his club definitely didn't have a stock shaft, as he requires x-stiff, and the PING club fitter shafted it for him that day.. so not only did Jeff think we were somehow scamming PING out of a new driver, who once again made the decision to replace this driver themselves after I asked for repair options, or fair trade in value, but he also basically called us liars with regards to how the club is currently equipped, versus how Jeff believes it to have been originally equipped.. but in his mind.. I plan to speak with PING today to let them know what the FedEx tracking number is on what Jeff sent to PING, albeit quite begrudgingly, and will also see if they can ship the new club directly to me rather than to his golf shop, as this once loyal customer hopes to never have to set foot in either of Jeff's shops again, which is a shame, because his guy Mike in the Port Charlotte store is the guy you want to see if you're in the area and in need of clubs.. Absolutely ridiculous behavior for anyone in business, least of all an owner, specifically for a transaction where he stood to lose absolutely nothing until he continued to run his mouth and eventually lost a customer.. and a paying one at that, as he was able to quickly quote exactly what I had spent in his shop, so this guy is clearly reckless, as he knows that I spend money, but he couldn't care less when his feelings are involved.. In my most recent conversation with him he actually play acted using a crying voice, insinuating that I called PING and cried, but believe me, he came to the first call I made to his shop looking for tracking information loaded for bear, so clearly this had been eating at Jeff for well over a week.. Quite honestly one of the most insane customer experiences ever.. Michael T. Langan
