Scott Gourlay - SGGT - My custom fit.

Thank fook that worked out for the Craw. I’m glad, I have every faith in Scott as I’ve known him since he was junior at my old club. You might say I’m biased but I have went to other people and returned to Scott for him to fix it.

KZG….they make superb equipment as do United…just have a look at these mothers.

KZG don’t really throw money at tour pros that way we pay for the clubs we buy not the tour pros.

Crawford……..wait till the better weather, a game and a bite to eat at Dunbar GC…all on Tommo.
 
i knew it would be worth it and not a drive wasted:D

i'll definately be back to see him aswell and hopefully that will be soon to try out the 2 shafts that were recommended.

Hope it continues to perform well once you have parted with your hard earned Crawford.;) Sounds like you had a great day and have been properly custom fit. No excuses now !!

One sheet shy of 300 was shelled out today!

She better work hard for her master!
 
i would have thought 399 so it has got me thinking. i hope it works infact i know it will work because you know it is the best fitted club (sorry shaft as surely everyone has worked out that its the SHAFT) youved had or will ever had. hope you post more about the details of the fitting ie other shafts how did they perform and the forgotten about grip, tape etc.
 
KZG have been making pretty good gear since mid 90s. Lots to be said about the component companies like them and Nkashima. And, of course, Wishon.

Most of the innovations and quantum leaps have actually come from the component component companies rather than the major OEMs - then somehow the majors have utilise he concepts and make it their own!

Great to see you're now set up with something that suits you. Was thinking that the distances were a tad low, but I'm sure the current temperature would lose 10-15 yds of overall length, even in balmy Edinburgh!

I'm happy with that sort of distance, I'm not a big hitter by any stretch of the imagination. The trajectory was miles better than the Tit. Should work well.

I'm impressed that the craw was open minded enough not to go with a mainstream brand. But knowing he's a shaft pimp I do wonder if this shaft will end up in something else.

Good luck with it craw, hope it rewards the investment
 
Looks a nice Club old boy.

As long as you are happy with it that's all that counts.:)

PS
I give it till the end of the season before he changes it;)
 
Great write up thanks. What other heads and shafts did you try that came close?

I used Scott for my reshafting last week and its an awesome job and he was highly professional. There was an issue with shipping and he mailed me on Monday and offered me some money back. Superstar!!

Scott will happily fit you into a shaft. If you have a head you like he'll fit a shaft for that head.

In my case I didn't. I therefore saw no advantage in getting fitted then put a shaft into a head that could potentially change the launch, spin, distance, ball speed etc. The KZG head is a classic pear shaped clean looking head. I'm happy with it.

It's cost me a lot of money which I'm comfortable with as I needed to do it, therefore it wont be going anywhere. It'll still be in my bag next season. That is 100% certain.

What concen is it of yours anyway? Apart from cheap digs is there any point to your posts? From someone who has changed irons more than their underpants in the last few seasons I find it rather rich! Bottom line is that I've had a professional fitting, one which I'm happy with and chosen a club which has given me ideal launch etc for my set up? Please explain the problem?

I'm not shallow enough to think Ping, Titleist, Mizuno or whoever are better because they're a household brand name. KZG are the brand that the fitting identified, I tried others like United as in Thommo's post, again I would have happily accepted that as well. Whether you want to accept that is really none of my concern I'll stick with it. As for your other pish about Easter, geez a break. Go and get your kicks and digs in esle where.

The ribbing aside, I can understand if you want to have a complete open mind on the name you have on your driver. It's not all about having brand names, its about having a proper fit and trust in your fitter. He says that's the best for you AND you are comfortable with the look, then for me, any respectable brand is fine. On my fit at Precision (another thread), I was head fitted using a Nakashima head with variable weights. Nope, I'd never heard of them (or KBZ - KillerBallz ?, ;) ). I didn't get a Nakashima head as I preferred the look of the 910 D3 head, so we worked on setting the 910 D3 head like the Nakashima one.

The very best of luck with this new stick. I think the beauty is that if you aren't happy you can keep going back for professional tweaks. That's what I plan to do!
