Hi Folks, Can anyone recommend these guys in Edinburgh, I have read that Scott Gourlay is one of the best club fitters in the world and that Pete Arnott is a top instructor... Cheers.

Gourlay is very good but he's not cheap anymore that's for sure.

75 knicker for the actual fitting... im guessing he adds a premium to the clubs and shafts too.. or are they similar price to other golf shops.

It depends on what you go for. He does a lot of bespoke stuff as well as main stream brands. Shafts can be expensive as well by the time he adds his wizardry!
I'd personally speak to them and set a budget that you're comfortable with.

thanks very much for the advice jacko.... im doing so much work on my fitness and swing that it would maybe be nuts to spend a fortune at this stage.. maybe hold on to my current clubs.... its a tricky chicken and egg scenario...

Contact him, he's very approachable.
There are others on here who have had fittings with him who may advise differently.

I had a fitting off Scott few year back and got some vega irons. The bloke knows his stuff. I travelled from Sunderland up to Craigmillar where he was based before.
Moogie has recently had a fitting off him although I believe a different Scott does the fittings now.

Scott Fraser but also a knowledgeable guy himself.

I've been having lessons from Pete now for 4 years and can highly recommend. The new set up they've got at Swanston is nearly complete and looks like it's going to be class too.

My brother went to him and got fitted a few months ago for new Srixon irons and woods. He says it was top notch and he gave him a good trade in price on his old irons too.
