Even if this was standard fare at AG stores - which these days I don't think it is - do you think they'd do that with all the coverage they're going to get in the Mag and on here...?
The boat would be pushed out and filled to capacity.
i was making a comment on the treatment i received at my local AG store not on any other store and not all AG stores have the latest fitting systems.as for not supporting the sponsors does that mean we cant pass comments on bad service

ive never had a problem with AG. when brought my irons i hit off a strike board. when ever buying clubs have as many balls as i want and always face tape and also some tips.
Also to be fair to them i went in the other week with a mate who brought new irons i was looking at drivers and explained why i was looking and was suggested a driver lesson with my pro as a driver just doesnt stop working overnight but setup does.
Since that i went to my pro and had adriving lesson turns out it was me in the wrong not the club lol

Couldn't agree more. AG are trying hard to get into custom fitting and as such are investing big money into stores aswell as advertising which includes support our forum.

From the 4 local ag's I have, 3 are on ranges and now have trackmans fitted with mizzy DNA fitting carts available so they have Definately stepped up their fitting process,

New Malden has an indoor trackman where you use current market quality balls, for my fitting after hitting on the range I was using ad333, Bridgestone and nxt on the indoor trackman.

Long lane Croydon has a trackman fitted to a range bag, again with a mizzy fitting cart and when being fitted there you use different balls to normal range use

Sidcup I beleive is like long lane with trackman bays onto the range.

The ag Croydon does not have trackman as its only a small store, but it dies have flight scope and does have a DNA/fitting cart.

AG I don't think are looking for the specialist full on c/f work, what they seem to be doing is upgrading their stores so people can try a selection of clubs and with the aid of trackman advise which is best for them and why, almost half way between online buying and full on specialist c/f. What's great is they have chose to promote this through our forum ..... Which is ace!

What a wonderful slip of the fingers OS :) :)

Seriously, totally agree with your post, it does look like AG has realised that the golfers are getting more knowledgable about the sport and hence they are improving their in store services.

I'm glad you located your shoulder I've been looking for mine for ages lol
Serioulsy though take your time coming back and do all the physio,you don't want this to happen again,I recommend a weight training regime to strengthen the shoulder joint.

Thanks shewy. your right. its funny because i didnt think i was that bad but its quite painful and has kept me off for 2 weeks now.

Cheers for the advice. I've got to get one of those resistance bands and work on those smaller muscle groups so that it doesnt happen again.

But unfortantly my love of rugby gets in the way of that!
