Callaway Golf National Fitting Centre

Last Friday myself, James and Luke had the day off work and made a trip up to the Callaway Golf UK Headquarters in Chessington, Surrey.

The reason for our visit was to have a full custom fitting session with one of 'Callaway's Tour Fitters' and use some of their new products for 2018. These products included the new Rogue driver, Mack Daddy 4 wedges and the new X Forged irons. We also had the opportunity to be assessed and custom fitted for Odyssey putters which produced some interesting results.

Overall it was a very worthwhile trip to Callaway, we all now feel we have a better understanding of what we require to help enhance our game, we were able to learn some new information regarding the latest products and how these products will help to improve your game.

The trip has definitetly shown us the importance of custom fitting and how important it is to be playing with golf clubs that have been custom fit for you, for more information regarding the latest Callaway products or custom fitting, please speak to a member of the professional shop team or click here to send us an email. Below are some pictures from the day...

Putter Fitting Afternoon

Thomas Maggs and James Keitch will be running a FREE Putter Fitting Afternoon on Monday 5th March from 12:00pm until 5:00pm. This is a great opportunity to come and try the selection of putters we currently have available.

The Professionals will be looking at a range of key aspects that are extremely important when being custom fit for a putter and some of these aspects include putter length, head style, stroke type, grip size, lie angle, loft and head weight. We currently have the latest range of putters from Odyssey, TaylorMade and PING, therefore finding that perfect putter for the upcoming season will not be an issue.

A feature you might not be aware of...

Nowadays, distance measuring devices are considered vital pieces of equipment by many golfers. We think that it’s only once you regularly use one that you begin to appreciate just how useful it can be in helping you play your best golf.

More than front, middle and back
The main reason you’ve probably considered a GPS device is for the distances it gives you to the front, middle and back of the green, but Garmin’s products offer a little bit more.

Course Illustration

This Approach S20 GPS watch has Green View that reveals the shape of the green for any blind approach shots, plus it can keep score and discreetly receive messages. The feature we find most beneficial though is its lay-up distances to hazards and doglegs, which are invaluable when you’re playing new courses and need to plot your tee shots, like in the hole graphic here.

Which grip should you go for?

Different grips offer varied performance benefits, which is why you should pay close attention to which ones you choose for your clubs. It’s also true that you should come and feel a few in person, plus there are other factors you must consider.

Golf Pride Align Grips

Grip size
Size is arguably the most important factor to consider with everything from undersize to jumbo available, as well as additional layers of tape. If a grip’s too small there’s a danger your hands will become too active, which can lead to hooks or pulls. If your grips are too thick your hands might not release effectively, causing blocks, pushes or slices.

Surface texture
If you look at your grips you'll notice they have patterns designed to offer either a smoother or rougher feel. Which one you opt for depends on what you find the most comfortable when hitting shots.

Playing conditions
Both the weather and your hands’ perspiration will also affect your grip choice. Generally speaking, if you play in wet weather or have hands that are prone to perspiring, we’d recommend trying moisture control grips with rougher textures.

One grip we’d certainly recommend trying is the Golf Pride MCC Align that has a raised ridge along the bottom that encourages consistent hand placment on every shot to aid a square clubface.
