My golf trip to Dallas, TX is coming up in like 2 weeks. I would like to have some Mizuno MP 60's fit for me. Can anybody recommend a good club fitter in the area? I will be staying right next to the Dallas Cowboys Golf Club and will be using taxi's/hotel transport, so the closer the better.

The club fitters up here in Fargo, ND are not that great, especially for Mizuno irons. So I figured I could get much better results down south where golf happens much more out of the year than in ND. By the way, we got 7.4 inches of snow today...BOOOO!!!

Well, I don't know if it's really the sort of thing you're looking for, but there is a PGA Tour Superstore in Plano (just off HWY 75) and maybe also in Frisco. (I think the Plano location is bigger.) They definitely fit Mizuno products; I bought a CLK Fli Hi there a couple of months ago. They don't have any outdoor facilities, but if you're set on the MP-60s, you may not care to do it indoors. It wouldn't be a ridiculous trip from Grapevine. And even if the giant box scene/atmosphere isn't what you're looking for in a fitting session, it's a hell of a lot of fun just to walk around that place.

I've never been fitted before. I would like to be fitted outside, but its definitely not a must. If I can get on a launch monitor with a professional that knows what he/she is doing, then I would be just fine with that.

Also, Im not completely set on the MP 60's. Im torn between the 60's and the 67's. As far as shafts go, I would like to go with Project X 6.0. Again, the ending decision will most likely be what Im fitted for.

Also, I will be using either the hotel transportation or taxis to get from point to point. Im guessing a taxi ride to Plano would be ridiculously expensive? Any suggestions?

There is a place called the practicetee, ( www.thepracticetee.com ). Its about 20 miles from cowboys......I've never been fitted, but ive heard from a couple people they do a decent job, plus its outside. Might be worth a look at....

Its gonna get real expensive real quick w/ the taxis. Do you know anybody at all around the area that could give you a ride?

Yes, the taxi expense from your hotel to Plano would be exorbitant; you could nearly rent a car for the amount it would cost you to get there and back.

Sorry I couldn't be more help. I don't live in the Metroplex; my brother lives in Plano, and I've spent some time there with him. I hope some DFW guys can help. Good luck, and enjoy your trip. (My brother played the Cowboys course a few weeks ago and really liked it.)

Been to both, it's like a Cosco for golf.

I live in Flower Mound which is just north of Grapevine. The closest place I can think of would be Golf Galaxy in Lewisville - it's about 5 miles away. I haven't been fitted there, but I've shopped there and the guys I've dealt with (including the manager) seem knowledgeable. And I know they carry Mizuno because I got my wedges there. There's also a Hank Haney Golf Ranch in Lewisville. I've only been there once and I'm not sure if they do fittings, but I wouldn't be surprised if they did. And of course the pro shop at the Cowboys course might do fittings too.

      However, have you ever considered using small summer houses for such setups? They offer a great solution for creating dedicated practice areas, especially for an affluent audience looking to enhance their outdoor living space.

      I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.
