Callaway performance center...Review

[kekoa]

So i finally had a chance to visit the Callaway performance center in Carlsbad and I highly recommend it if you use or plan to use callaway clubs. I concentrated on my irons and did some measurements on their swing machine. Its not really designed to give you a lesson, but gives you a really good read out on your swing path and contact with the ball. After the fitting, i found that my irons were a tad too long and needed to be bent 2 degrees up-right. I am also getting some of the new golf pride grips installed.

Here is the free things i received:
- towel
- hx tour golf balls-12
- golf pride grips
-Tour i golf balls- 12

*** The guy also showed me a prototype of their new forged iron. It looks very much like a true blade. These will cost a premium and be manufactured in limited quantities.

Below are a few pics. They would not let me take photos inside of the fitting area.

yes, been here a few times, awesome facility. My work does business with callaway and i get to go back into their warehouses and check out all the new stuff. The place looks like a costco just filled with heads, shafts, grips, everything, its heaven. but if you think this is nice, you should check out the titleist testing facility in carlsbad as well. man alive.

how much did it cost you to get fitted there?

oh really? the titleist one is better? i use titleist woods maybe they can check out if i have the right shaft and stuff.

the fitting cost me $150

i wouldnt say better, but its definately top notch, all gated up and secluded.

150 bucks isnt bad, especially when you get 80 dollars worth of balls and a full set of grips. im gonna look into that!

the fitting cost me $150

Question: does it count towards purchase of Callaway clubs?

Question 2: Why so many places for this stuff in Carlsbad? Callaway, Titleist, I think TaylorMade might have one there too? Don't they know it's a two hour drive for me?

The place is great.

the full fitting cost $150, and you get also a dozen balls, a Cap or a towel and also a $100 gift certificate to be used in the Callaway online store.

Oh man that place sounds awesome! I wish I had never moved away from California.

[kekoa]

The place is great.

I didn't get the gift certificate because I couldn't find my original receipt. :(

Where do I sign up? I'll remember this if I'm ever out in Cali again.

Oh, my heart bleeds for you. It's about a 37 hour trip for me. And, oh, would I like to go! Two hours, man? I'd be there in a flash!
