You can find it on their website, just put my postcode in and got it showing a demo day on the 25/5 at Royal Mid Surrey. I think it shows whatever is in the boundaries of the map so zooming out will give you more results.

Alternatively their national centre is in Gainsborough (Lincs) if thats convenient for you.

You at norwood tash ?

They can book you a session at gainsboro, 90 mins costs £30

To be honest ruff-driver that's what I would probably end up doin. The reason I said getting them in August is because I got some vouchers from the club shop for me birthday and have won some since, so all me shop vouchers and winnings from now til then will go towards them. First Vouchers expire in August. Looked at the G and Gmax. But think a fitting would decide which would be best.
Always been a Titliest man, well last two sets but had a smash with a G25 7 iron a few years ago and was hitting it 10-15 yd further, better ball flight and easier to hit, more forgiving. For someone that is not a long hitter 10-15 is massive. Only problem was that night my back was in bits because the club just encouraged you to smash it. Bought the 714 because I got a good deal on them from golf support who don't sell Ping.
Had a lesson at Ping last year for a driver which was excellent. I had at the time the SLDR which I was struggling with. At the end of the lesson, the pro in essence said " your swing is rubbish" not exactly those words but driving down the A1, The penny dropped that's what he was kindly saying. It was the most honest assesment of my swing. The explanation of different drivers, weights in them etc etc was excellent. Odd thing is the club they recommended me getting when I sorted out my swing was the one I managed to buy ex demo/second hand for £110.
Trouble is with me and not Gainsboro was I felt a bit intimidated for the first half hour or so, there is guys there that can place the ball on a sixpence from 200 yd and there's me knobbin it, slicing it and swinging with the finesse of a Tasmanian devil.

I was shanking quite a few at my fitting for wedges at Cleveland/Srixon on Tuesday. Ended up figuring it out with the help of the fitter so it ended up as 40 quid for the fitting, a set up thought that may or may not revolutionise my striking and a dozen Z-Stars.

I would say definately get fitted and ask your pro if you can go to Gainsborough and use your vouchers to buy the clubs through him. Alternatively, I got mine through the pro on a Ping fitting day at my club, but our pro has all the Flightscope kit which you really need to be fitted properly.
And don't worry about all the good players at Gainsborough. if they were that good they would be on the tour. Other than that, they are being fitted just like you. It's all relative and as far as I know a high handicappers money is worth the same as a scratch players.

Been up to the course today with young Bradley Tash for a role up lesson and he was a mare. An absolute three yr old tantrum mare. Dragged him away eventually and he kicked off bigstyle when I never took him in the 19th for his cheesy chips.
Anyway I spoke to rob in the club shop about being sent up to Gainsboro for a fitting and he said yup no probs but they have all the gear there. Which I know they have and Richard who did his best with young Bradley Tash today has done a fantastic job in the fitting room updating it. But and it is a massive but, I want sorting out with my irons and if I have time I hope the Ping guys can giv me 15 mins advice with my driver, and after that I might even ask them to let me have a smash with there fairway woods. but at my pad it would be 30 mins irons only as against 90 mins at Gainsboro. Spoke to Rob and paying with me modern day green shield stamps is not a problem. Happy days.
 
get booked into gainsborough, have a fitting, then take the results to your pro who can order for you, simples.

By the time I have paid in vouchers and flogged my 714s, hoping it will not cost me an arm and leg for my set of new shiny bats..
missis T was even given a showing of new shinys today and she never turned up her nose so Alls looking well.
 
I ve just had a bash with Ping G25 driver that my pp uses

you couldnt custom fit that thing to feel good if you had a $1000000
