Tour-Level Club Fitting = INSTANT GOLF SUCCESS

EIGHT OUT OF NINE GOLFERS ADDED AN AVERAGE OF CD YARDS OFF THE TEE

- By Leonard Finkel

With advances in golf club technology, most golfers could easily hit the ball farther and more accurately. Yet an industry study found that 90% of U.S. golfers may be playing with improperly fit clubs. A Golf Digest study found that eight out of nine Club Champion custom-fit golfers lowered their scores by an average of six strokes per round and added up to 21 yards off the tee.

Club Champion is the country’s top club fitter, builder and retailer of the best brands in golf. The company delivers a Tour-quality fitting that produces longer, more accurate shots with a nearly 100% satisfacti­on rate. Their approach is unbiased; no specific vendor is promoted. The only goal – find the best combinatio­n of components to lower your scores.

Ranked by Golf Digest among the top 100 club fitters every year since the award’s inception, Club Champion has a unique coupling system that allows them to combine any head and shaft together, so golfers hit the precise combinatio­n to be custom-built for them. Most golf stores use fitting carts provided by club manufactur­ers; with these options, golfers are unable to mix-and-match from different brands to determine ideal combinatio­ns. Club Champion offers over 50,000 hittable combinatio­ns, including components that are not available through other fitters and retailers.

Former PGA Tour player Jay Williamson said, “I had access to every brand of shaft and head, but I never understood what they did for me. I didn’t have the opportunit­y to experiment like I do at Club Champion. They bring the same level of service players receive on Tour, including the newest heads and shafts and the most advanced fitting technology. If you are committed golf at any level, I highly recommend it.” Incidental­ly, Club Champion was able to add an average of 15 yards to Jay’s driving statistics.

Club Champion stands out because they build clubs in-house to exacting, unrivaled tolerances. Variables such as swingweigh­t, length, lie and flex definitely alter performanc­e and should be accounted for in the building process. The experience and know-how in combining these intricate parts together is what separates Club Champion from its competitio­n. Chuck Thiry, VP strategic partnershi­ps – Cleveland Golf said, “In our experience, Club Champion represents the finest in the art of club fitting and building. We are confident that Club Champion will fit, service and support the most discerning golfers at the highest possible levels.”

Frank D’Angelo (Malvern, PA) revealed, “I was a 12 index before I went to Club Champion and I’ve shaved about six shots off my handicap. It’s a premium store and you get premium service.”

Golfers of every level will benefit from a premium club fitting and this service is imperative for anyone who wants to optimize performanc­e. When Club Champion says you’ll add 20 yards off the tee, they mean it. Whether you are looking to buy new clubs or fix your current set, a custom club fitting is the answer. The company has more than 80 studios across the country. Don’t just buy clubs, buy guaranteed improvemen­t!
