Jim McLean Club Fitting?

[golfnuub]

i was looking to get fitted for everything (driver/3wood/irons/wedges/putter), and came across this after i was at the doral wgc-ca golf tournament this weekend. Has anyone done the ultimate Session fitting they offer?  Here is what the website says comes with the package offer:

looking for any feedback (good/bad) that you can provide. i am in the market for a different driver and possibly a new putter. 3wood i like but probably needs a shaft that fits my swing. right now its stock.  irons  i love and dont plan on changing just a lie adjustment and possibly new grips and shafts for the wedges.

thanks

I'm a little suspicious of these sorts of things, although Jim McLean is a sufficiently good name that I can't imagine this is bad. That having been said... do you know which driver(s) you're considering? Most OEMs will do a free fitting if you expect to purchase theirs. Back in September, I replaced my iron shafts, and Mizuno did a complimentary fitting for them, even though I wasn't making a purchase through Mizuno (I was putting new shafts into my existing MP-57s). For the wood, I see it's a Burner. If you find a TaylorMade demo day, they might be able to suggest a shaft for you. Alternately, find out which shaft they'd suggest putting in a similar 3-wood for you now (if you were to purchase this year's model) and get that put into your Burner. As for the lie adjustment, your local golf shop probably does a dynamic lie adjustment for irons in a fairly easy (and inexpensive) manner, typically based on each iron individually (by determining where each strikes the ground).

they also offer these services separate but will cost more to do them separate ($150 more). i really started thinking about getting fitted after i read the right sticks book by Tom Wishon, great book.  i want the best driver that fits my swing and will give me the best results, both in distance and accuracy. i have a few ideas of what i would want but really want to see what the club fitters  recommend based on what they see.  everyone says go get fitted before purchasing so thats what i am trying to do.

i guess i just put in my OP that i needed a lie adjustment, i didnt mean i was going to have them do it exclusively. i had golfsmith adjust them originally, and have had edwin watts adjust some of my wedges too. sorry for the confusion. there was a demo day a few weeks ago, but i had an injured wrist so i was unable to attend and demo/test clubs..
