So I had been fit before at club champion and wasn't impressed. Never really got in a groove with their selection for me.

I went and got fitted at Bebu in Gretna. What a drastic difference. Totally different club suggestions, shaft choice, and weight.

I will never buy a set of clubs again any other way. I can't believe the difference in my miss hits, consistency, and still feel fresh at the end of a round

I am shocked how much a proper set of clubs changes everything

Shout out to Buddah, that was a heck of an experience!

No, actually CC had me in Mizuno though and every expensive shaft they could find. What a rip off

What was your handicap when you went to get fitted?

I've been fitted for my titleist set, but just curious at what point everyone thinks is appropriate for a fitting. I'd say if you're consistently shooting upper 80s maybe lower 90s, you could benefit from a fitting.

I did a putter fitting with him about a month ago, would definitely recommend. Fairly new to the game and had no idea of all the different options associated with putters. He went into great detail about what type of putter was right for me based on my putting stroke (used SAM putt lab technology) and my typical miss. He went so far as to show me which alignment line was best for my dominant eye etc. He showed me examples of the ones he had on the shelf that matched my stroke and told me I can have the info to purchase one to the specs that are best for me if I didn't want to purchase from him.

For contrast, I also had a putter fitting at the pxg in Houston a few months prior and that wasn't even in the same ballpark. It was more or less here's what we offer, which one feels the best.

I typically shoot low to mid 80s, occasionally in the 70's my major score killer was miss hits

The clubs have drastically changed my miss hits completely

Im consistently low 80's and am thinking of finally pulling the trigger on fitted clubs.

My Instructor uses the SAM Lab and it’s amazing as to the info you get. I went for a putting lesson, practiced everyday and my numbers improved. Then I bought a LAB Golf DF3 putter and eventually went back for another lesson and my numbers were even better. My coach said that I don’t need to come back anytime soon unless I want to work on reading greens etc

Do it!

At my fitting, they only sold me driver and 3 wood.

Said the rest suited my game.
In fact the wedge session was 5 swings.
He said, “we could go through a bunch of different heads, but you are not going to hit anything I hand you better than those.”

I’ve bought new clubs since then bc I am a club ho.

It was short and left so I aimed at it and visualized a stinger. So I hit 5 shots that
Rode up the face and faded right.

Nobody double crosses a wedge better,
But I did not want to show off.
