    Course design you dislike.

    A lot of people will jump into a driver straight away and it can be detrimental. Longer clubs with lower lofts are harder to use correctly. A 3/4 wood is a good starting place to gone your skills before stepping up.

    Fitting... who and what to believe

    Margin on the Wilsons is considerably larger than most and thus their spiv. Doesn't mean it was why you were pushed in that direction but it is fitters discretion etc. If they perform well it doesn't matter ?

    Motocaddy S1 vs Powakaddy FW3

    I'd go for whomever has the nearest service agent to you. Used a motocaddy chap for me and was worth his weight in gold when it went wrong. Which unfortunately all trolleys do.

    Fitting... who and what to believe

    Go back to the decent course with the decent pro and see what he thinks. You never know he might be a Taylormade stockist ? Fitters can be irregular wherever they work. Not just AG (their retail processes don't help the situation at times).
