As everyone knows, when you are pickig a new set of golf clubs, you want to make sure they are perfect for you before you go and invest hundreds of dollars into it. Sadly, i do not know the first thing about fitting golf clubs, but i was wondering if anyone knows where to go to get them fitted? Can you just go down to a golf club and ask to get someone that works there to fit them for you? Or is that abit far-fetched? Also, i dont live in one of the major cities of my country so i dont have the executives from taylormade and callaway walking the streets. Thanks guys, any help would be appreciated! (: P.s i am looking to get fitted for a set of irons, and possibly a hybrid.

Most any reputable golf store has the ability to perform a good fitting.  I purchased my clubs at Golfsmith and they took a lot of time getting it right for me.  But, other places such as Golf Galaxy, Golf Headquarters, or even Dick's if they have the clubs you want.  Personally I would go to a place that specializes in golf, like I said Dick's is okay, but they wouldn't be my first choice.  It is important that you get fitted, so even if you have to travel a little ways it will be worth it.

      How Much do You Exercise?

      By mdl ·

      I was laid off two months ago. Good severance, a 90 day layoff announcement regulation the company wanted to avoid so technically I'm still on the payroll for a few weeks, and a bunch of banked PTO, so I'm in a great spot and working on a startup idea I've been batting around with my brother for a while. That means I've got time to get to the gym! I'm at like 60-75 minutes 5x a week of strength training, and either a run or a bunch of time playing soccer or tennis with my daughter on the weekends. Stronger than I've been in forever. Up ~5 pounds of (noticeable!) muscle!

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      Do you have examples of exceptional scores versus their established handicap indexes?

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By Big C ·

      A bit of background. The Southern California Golf Association (SCGA) runs an annual event known as "Team Play." It is a wildly popular match play competition where Men's Clubs across the region put together teams of 20+ golfers together to compete against other clubs in a 16 vs. 16 match. In any given year, approximately 80-100 clubs will participate. Each club is grouped into "pods" of 4, and will play 6 total matches - one home and one away match against the other 3 clubs. The winning club from each pod advances to the Team Play Playoffs - a single elimination format - until a winner is crowned.  Antelope Valley Country Club just advanced to the championship match for the 3rd consecutive year. They won the championship in both 2022 and 2023.  Based on my review of the match history from the past 3 years (linked below), they have won 21 consecutive team matches. Keep in mind, these are handicapped matches, so this is not just a case where a group of sticks bands together to dominate the poor amateurs other SoCal clubs. Even if these guys are grinders who never quit, play their best under pressure and routinely putt the lights out, the law of averages still say that a streak of that nature is mathematically impossible.  Is there any plausible explanation beyond institutionalized sandbagging throughout the club?
