I have nothing but good things to say. This was my second fitting with him and I will be a repeat customer again. I don't know him personally and have only ever seen or talked to him the two times I got fitted. He is extremely professional and knowledgeable in my interactions with him. Laid back and not pushy, and got me into some clubs that really helped me improve my game and make golf even more enjoyable. After the fitting was done, I brought up the other thread and got his side of the story. To me it just sounds like a misunderstanding/miscommunication. After the fitting and our conversation, I had no reservations. He even called the club rep while I was there to confirm shaft availability, expected delivery date and other particulars. I'm very excited about my new clubs.

So you're the one that convinced him to respond

How much of a discount did Buddha give you for posting this thread?

Man, I’ve mentioned this numerous times that i may have been an anomaly because i know many good amateur golfers that have gone to him and praised him. I’ve recommended him to numerous people. A few comments on what you’re stating because your comment is bizarre.

This is your statement on 2/11 on the thread about my experience with bebu golf...

“ I've had one experience with Buddha that I'd rate as pretty good. I did not buy clubs through him, but the fitting information was valuable. I appreciate the heads up about your experience. Your story doesn't surprise me. Thanks again for sharing.”

And how did you have a fitting yesterday and he already helped you improve your game and make golf enjoyable? Did he get you your fitted clubs in less than 24 hours? Cause you stated previously you never bought clubs from him before.

On a side note, i read his comment yesterday stating that his “loyal customers” told him about this thread but in actuality the mizuno rep informed him of this thread a couple days after it came out and him snd i discussed some of the things that were being said on here in detail. He’s known about this thread for a long time.

No discount, there are 2 sides to every story. I have no skin on the game. I just wanted to share my experience as a customer so folks can have a broader pool of info to make a decision on fittings.

The driver fitting I had last year helped and made the game more enjoyable. I'm currently gaming ping isi k's so I think it's a reasonable assumption based on the monitor data that my new irons will do the same.

Is that a strange thing to say? I guess I watch too much YouTube (mostly uk guys and they do say some strange stuff) and it's crept into my diction.

Look, take it or leave it, believe me or don't, I don't care. I had my fitting scheduled before the other thread was even posted. Rawdog's posts actually had me thinking about canceling, but I'm very glad I didn't. I just wanted to provide my experience for those considering a club fitting.

G710, the feel of the apex dcb's was awesome, but based on the numbers there was really only 1 choice. I tried a bunch of different shafts and heads and we found the best combo for me with the right length and lie.

Eta: I'm not good at golf and need all the help I can get, haha.

This thread actually makes me more suspicious that there’s some shady shite happening

This would have been nice in the multiple-page thread that has already been started on the topic...

Good move getting the fitting in before the feds seize his shop and lock him up.

The new driver I got off the shelf at Dick's last month helped and made the game more enjoyable.
