Went
for
a
club
fitting
here
last
week,
and
it
was
a
wonderful
experience.
Shortly
after
arriving,
I
was
sat
in
the
car
park
surrounded
by
expensive
cars
and
beautiful
scenery,
asking
myself
"what
am
I
doing
here".
As
a
mid
handicapper
who
lacks
confidence,
I
suddenly
felt
a
lot
of
apprehension
about
my
fitting
session,
and
started
wishing
I
had
just
gone
to
my
local
range
and
booked
a
bog-standard
fitting.
Knowing
the
kind
of
elite
pros
they
usually
fit
here
(search
through
YouTube
if
you're
interested),
all
I
could
think
was
"I
don't
belong
here".
Well,
I
needn't
have
worried,
because
from
the
moment
I
left
my
car,
it
was
a
wonderful
experience.
The
setting
and
the
course
along
with
all
of
the
facilities
were
stunning,
and
every
single
member
I
walked
past
was
warm,
welcoming
and
said
hello
(they
probably
recognised
that
I
wasn't
a
member!).
The
team
in
the
pro
shop
were
also
very
friendly
and
welcoming,
and
were
kind
enough
to
give
me
a
lift
in
a
buggy
down
to
the
range
seeing
as
I
didn't
know
my
way.
The
practice
facilities
here
are
top
notch,
with
a
really
nice
driving
range
with
free
balls,
tees
and
alignment
sticks,
and
a
lovely
short
game
facility
outside
with
bunkers
and
greens.
Being
able
to
warm
up
on
the
range
and
get
my
bad
shots
out
of
the
way
without
anyone
watching
was
very
comforting.
The
fitting
bays
are
up
there
with
the
best,
fully
kitted
out
with
walls
full
of
shafts
and
heads,
and
trackman
equipment
too.
It's
no
wonder
Mizuno
chose
this
as
their
performance
centre,
and
why
so
many
pros
come
here
to
be
fitted.
Luke,
my
fitter,
was
superb.
He
made
me
feel
at
ease
straight
away
and
was
a
great
guy
to
talk
to
about
my
game.
He
really
knew
his
stuff,
and
whilst
he
let
me
lead
the
session
in
terms
of
what
I
felt
most
comfortable
with,
he
supported
every
decision
with
data
and
his
expertise,
and
was
able
to
direct
me
to
the
right
set
up
with
time
to
spare.
We
ended
up
with
a
head
that
I
didn't
think
I
would
be
'good'
enough
for,
but
thanks
to
Luke's
experience
and
support,
he
directed
me
down
a
different
route
to
what
I
imagines
and
made
sure
I
didn't
end
up
with
something
that
wouldn't
benefit
my
game
and
give
me
room
for
improvement.
There
was
also
no
pressure
to
purchase,
and
Luke
followed
up
after
the
session
with
an
email
containing
the
specs
we
had
agreed
on.
I
should
also
note
that
the
price
I
paid
for
the
clubs
was
in-line
with
the
going
rate
at
most
online
retailers,
so
there
was
no
sharp
mark-up
like
with
some
golf
shops.
If
I
am
being
really
critical,
it
would
have
been
nice
to
have
had
a
little
more
visibility
of
the
data
from
my
shots,
but
Luke
was
happy
to
let
me
take
a
look
when
I
asked,
and
he
talked
me
through
what
he
was
seeing
as
every
stage
of
the
process
to
help
me
come
to
the
right
decision.
All-in-all,
I
am
so
glad
I
booked
my
fitting
session
here.
Yes,
I
probably
still
don't
belong
there,
but
I
won't
get
too
many
opportunities
to
experience
the
facilities
and
customer
service
of
a
private
members
club,
let
alone
one
that
is
trusted
by
some
of
the
best
golfers
on
the
planet,
so
I
would
strongly
recommend
to
anyone
else
considering
it
to
just
go
for
it.
You
won't
regret
it,
and
it
is
well
worth
the
fitting
fee.
Until
next
time...
