I live in Western, TN and I am looking for the best place to get a good club fitting. The only thing I have ever actually been fitted for is my driver. I basically got on the launch monitor and tried a few different drivers and found the one that I hit the best. I am looking for a more complete fitting session. I want to make sure that my driver, shafts, irons, lie angle, ball, etc...are the best possible for my swing patterns. I really want to concentrate on taking my game to the next level this year, and the clubs are the last thing I want to worry about. There used to be a place in Memphis called "Z-golf" but I don't think they are in business anymore. Anyone in here from the area have any suggestions? I don't mind driving to Nashville or Memphis. I am about 30 minutes south of Jackson. Thanks in advance

It's not a stupid question. They aren't that popular. They make clubs that are custom only, they have no stock clubs whatsoever. They will also fit your clubs too.

Cool. Thanks man. One thing I am looking for too is somewhere I can go to not only get fitted, but try to find out which driver would be best for me. I went with the old Cleveland HiBore the last time because I hit it the best on the launch monitor. After hitting it for a year, I don't like it. I would like to try all of the drivers on the launch monitor. The Cleveland just does not fit my eye at all!! I definitely want a different driver.

Well, it looks like I have some good places to try.

I would try to call Z GOlf and make sure they aren't in business anymore. I got fitted there and it was great. They have the Trackman radar system that monitors about 15 different factors. (Most companies use the Trackman to fit their pros) Also, you hit out into the range, not a simulator.

I have. It says their number has been disconnected. That is where I was really wanting to go. I even tried to call the number to their headquarters in Chattanooga with no luck. I'll try again today.

Update on Z-golf Okay, I finally got someone at the Z-golf in Chattanooga. I was told that the Z-golf in Memphis closes down for winter. They will re-open in April. That is where I wanted to go in the first place, so I will wait and go there. I have tried this same number for 2 weeks and just now got someone. They may have just opened back up as well. Thanks for all of the help though.

Are there any other good fitters in Memphis? I would like to get fitted sooner than April. What do you think about Double Eagle Fitters in Cordova? Also, about how much did it cost you to get fit at Z-golf?

Double Eagle is good, or the Edwin Watts on Poplar and Perkins. I know the staff at both places well.

I just called Double Eagle and they told me that it only costs 50.00 if you don't buy a club from them. That seems very reasonable!

Well, I am going this Friday to get a complete fitting. I talked with a guy at a local shop here in Jackson (I thought he had went out of business) and he uses the Vector system. He is going to do a complete fitting...woods, irons, putter, etc...for 25.00. And if I buy a club from him, he will do it for free. So, that is where I am going. You can't beat 25.00 for a fitting!

    • Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip. 
    • Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
    • Caution for the seniors on weight training: Listen to your body. (I'm 75) I got a recent session with an orthopedist after a training-related injury. I put too much weight on a new resistance machine at the gym and ended up with bursitis in my left hip. Of course, it's the hip I dislocated back in 2023. I have my first physical therapy session tomorrow. I remarked that some days I can do 45 lbs. chest press - two sets - without much effort. But other days it drops down to 30 (😩) with just one set. (Complicating factor: I had digestive problems in this fall and lost about 20 lbs., with slip in muscle tone.) Orthopedist said that I want to feel some resistence, but that I should go with lots of reps with manageable weights rather than trying to set some sort of lift-pound record. I'm sure I'll get some refinements on lifting during tomorrow's PT.
