Hey everyone! I have a 2011 set of Cleveland CG16 irons that other than wear on the sole and sweet spot were in great shape. Grooves are pretty good and shafts are immaculate. I wipe them after every shot. Yet...I broke three of them this week. Turns out there is a ton of rust under the plastic piece covering the hosel connection to the shaft. I was struggling with consistency of my irons after a 2 week hiatus due to a sprained finger and chunked a couple like we all have and off went the club head! The pro I work with for swing lessons walked by and figured all would have rust so he thought I should have a fitting. My 4 iron broke (barely used anyway) as well as my 7 and 8 irons (lifelines!)

Does anyone do quick or emergency club fitting? I have a club tournament on Friday and Saturday of next week and fly to Florida and SC for golf on the following Tuesday.

I will assume your swing pro doesn't do fitting. Does he know anyone?

Perhaps a quick check in the local telephone book will list a club fitter, or Google for a club fitter in your area.

A quick Google search shows 

  1. Ace of Clubs
  2. Club Champion
  3. Golftec

I would definitely give each a call and explain your situation.   Good luck

I can personally vouch for Frank at Ace of Clubs for being the best I've ever dealt with.

Hey guys thanks for the info! I appreciate the searches and help. I was able to get a fitting squeezed in tomorrow from Cool Clubs. They have a facility in Natick, MA. Most places in MA, Club Champ and Ace of Clubs are booked solid a few weeks out.

Let's see what they fit me in! I am probably more curious to see the shafts than the club heads. Looks like Callaway, PXG, and TM have some good new offerings for heads

Sorry to hear you couldn't get in to see my buddy Frank at Ace of Clubs.  He is amazing and does all the brands you mentioned.  I know he is crazy busy year round but that happens when you're the best.

Didnt know there was a Cool Clubs in Natick.  Best of luck!

Glad you got your fitting in, be interested to know what they put you in. As far as your clubs breaking, I can't believe a seven year old set would be that rusty that the heads are breaking off, weird.

    • I've been putting whilst looking at the hole and it's definitely helped my distance control
    • I wonder if that is why my home course basically have no stakes now.  Not even markers.  It’s completely up to golfers to remember what is OB and hazard and how things used to be marked.     Even in tournaments, there is no marking and certain areas are played differently by different golfers who either don’t know better or use it to their advantage funny reading thru this with courses that actually have markers 
    • is it though?????? "Millions of fans"?????
    • Great post, thanks for the informaiton. I try to avoid adding salt to anything I eat. I tend to add pepper on to my meals as opposed to salt. And I am trying to eat as clean on possible. On golf day, I eat 3 eggs for breakfast (pepper NO salt) and a salad for lunch, with grilled chicken thigs (pepper, garlic, no salt). I have been trying to avoid processed food, but we all slip. I also should have mentioned that the electrolyte packet calls for mixing with 16 oz of water, however I mix in 32 oz of water, so I dilute the electrolyte powder.
    • So if I read the news correctly, the PIF will not fund LIV after this season.  LIV is trying to find new funding and a number of players there are now asking about getting back to the Tour.    I am very, very concerned that Taylor Gooch will not have a place where he can make a jackass out of himself soon
