Going to a resort with a Callaway fitting center.

Wondering if it is worth paying for the one hour fitting. Has anyone done it or is it going to be a sales pitch

I do play Callaways now

I've done it and it was worth every penny!  I also play Callaways and I didn't get a hint of a sales pitch at all - he actually recommended the same irons I am using but suggested a stiffer shaft.  Same with my driver.  I don't know which one you're planning on visiting, but the one I went to (Concord, Ontario, Canada) gave me full printouts with my fitting info and recommendations and photos, links to videos of my swing compared to several pros to view side-by-side (pretty cool!), a Callaway Golf hat and a sleeve of Tour i(s) balls.  I'd do it again just to try out the new gear even if I didn't need a fitting!

+1 - I went to the fitting center at their head office in Carlsbad and it was a really great experience.  If you are interested in playing Callaway equipment, I certainly suggest going to the fitting center.  ENJOY!

    • Tale of two swings.  Swing 1: Slightly outside takeaway (hands move outside of target line) only to allow trail elbow over collapsing at P4. Doesn't take much to overdo it for the trail elbow collapse to only further exaggerate. That's death. Swing 2: Hands stay slight in at takeaway for a much better trail elbow condition at P4. This is a hard sell from an instinct perspective. More focus on un-weighting and re-weighting of lead foot to unlock a bit more mobility of hips and torso. A major flaw that creeps up often is me swinging flat footed and becoming overly armsy-collapsy as a result. Got reminded of this the hard way during my 2nd round match for club net championship. Was cruising along 2up until I made the turn. Then lost the swing for next five holes. Andy was playing good enough to capitalize. By the time I regained my swing on 16th, it was too late. Even Andy was like "That was a gift". Obviously that stings because have played well enough lately. Should have closed him out of the game comfortably with a few holes to spare. Shoulda woulda coulda. Tough lesson. Damn. P.S. I know the swings look very similar but trust me there is a difference.
