Hello!

Im headed to San Diego next week for 6 days 4-9 Jul, and looking to get a couple of fittings done for some new sticks.

I’m looking at maybe a wood/hybrid fitting, a wedge fitting, and a putter fitting for now. I’m not as interested in a driver or iron fitting at this time. 

Does anyone have any recommendations for places to go that are thorough, professional, and (if possible, but least important) cheap? 

Also not fully booked up at that time would be a requirement!

Thanks!

Thanks to all for the recommendations! I went to ADS Golf, and they were professional, nice, and thorough. Got a fitting for fairway woods and hybrids, though I didn’t buy any while there. They did send recommended specs to me via email, and said I can email them if I want to pick up some clubs later from them. 

They do have a limited selection of companies that they sell, and they specialize in higher end stuff like Miura, PXG, and Wishon clubs and aftermarket shafts. They were upfront about this prior to my visit when I called to make the appointment. You won’t be able to get Callaway, TM, PING, etc. from them. 

Thanks again for the recommendation. I’d recommend them as well.

    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
