So I have a son-in-law that I really like, and he plays. Not great, averages 100-110 on a normal course. For his birthday I got him a series of 5 lessons (he's never had lessons before) from a well-regarded local pro. He hasn't started them yet. For Christmas I am getting him a fitting and clubs from a local clubmaker with credentials and equipment out the wazoo: And following the fitting I will be having the clubmaker make him 13 clubs (he already has a putter he really likes and putting is one of the better parts of his game). I'll let the clubmaker and him work out how many 'woods', how many and which hybrids, how many and which irons, and how many and which wedges. Other than paying I don't want to inject myself into the process. So my question for the board is which should happen first, the fitting/building of the clubs or the lessons? I can see arguments on both sides and I just thought this would be a good place from which to get some input. Thoughts? -
