PGA TOUR Superstore Club Fitting Review: A PGA Pro’s Experience

I recently took one of my students for a full bag fitting at our local PGA TOUR Superstore in Altamonte Springs, FL. In doing so, I thought it would be a great opportunity for me to do a professional PGA TOUR Superstore Club Fitting review.

Our  PGA TOUR Superstore full bag fitting was an amazing experience for us. Our fitter, Charles Moore, was a master fitter with over 20 years of experience. He used high-end technology like the Trackman Launch Monitor and SAMPuttLab putting analysis tools and software to diagnose any issues.

The three-hour session ran through all of the clubs in Lincoln’s bag. Charles started with irons, followed by Lincoln’s putter, wedges, and finally with his woods and driver. The time flew by, and the insights we learned will surely help Lincoln going forward.

After a 3-hour fitting, a few things we learned were:

• Change Lincoln’s 7-iron to a more upright degree to tighten his shot distribution.
• Shorten his driver to gain more control off the tee.
• Minor tweaks were made to his wedge lofts, gapping, and bounce.
• The putter was looking good.

I’ve been a golf instructor for 27 years and have been certified by the PGA for 15 years, and this is my first full bag fitting. After this experience, I’m convinced that a proper fitting is something all serious golfers need to do.

The only drawback could be the cost. Individual club fittings start at $40 to $50, while a full bag fitting at PGA Tour Superstore costs $99 to $300 ( check your local PGATSS stores pricing ). The more expensive fittings use more premium technology to analyze your swing.

If you spend hundreds or thousands on golf equipment and hours at the range or course, I think most golfers will consider this a solid investment. But please read on to decide for yourself, and at the end, I dive into the specific costs.

A PGA TOUR Superstore club fitting uses readings from technology such as Trackman  and SAM PuttLab  to recommend the best way to improve issues with your game.

That was exactly what our Studio Fitter, Charles, did as we went through the fitting, starting with Lincoln’s irons and then moving on to his putter, wedges, woods, and driver.

Here is a quick bit about our Studio Fitter:  Charles is originally from Gainesville, Florida. It was clear he had a true passion for golf. In talking with him, we found out he began his golf journey at 7, and today, at age 45, he is still just as passionate. He originally got his start in the golf industry in 1995, where he worked as a caddy, and then moved into the retail space in 1999, working for a store in Myrtle Beach. Charles has been a master fitter for over 20 years  after becoming certified through major golf vendors, including Callaway, Taylormade, PING, and Titleist.

I was thoroughly impressed with the Studio Full Bag Fitting at the PGA TOUR Superstore, and I know that my student Lincoln was also. The following are the positives and negatives we both took from the experience.

• It can help you get a good understanding of your swing tendencies
• It can help you see where your equipment is helping you
• It can help you see where your equipment is hurting you
• It can instantly help you improve your game with equipment modifications
• A fitting is not a cure-all for an ailing game, but a compliment to lessons as well as practice
• It could be considered too expensive for some (I’ll cover the full costs below)

Lincoln and I will remember the Studio Full Bag fitting at the PGA TOUR Superstore in Altamonte Springs, FL, for years. Our fitter, Charles, shared his decades of experience and sincerely wanted to help Lincoln reach his full potential.

Additionally, all the various reports from tools like Trackman and SAMPuttLab provide a great deal of valuable information after the fitting. As a coach , that information is great for me to go through with my students after a fitting session and when we are at our next session together.

I would absolutely recommend it to anyone to go through a fitting, even if it’s not a full-bag fitting.

Lincoln will work with a 7-iron with a more upright degree to help balance his contact on the face. After looking through the SAMPuttLab reports, it was good to see that his putting and putter were right on. His wedges also looked good, with some minor suggestions to change the gapping or the distance between clubs. He could also tweak the widget lofts and bounce.

The driver fitting takes the most time, and Charles had some expert insight to share. He noticed Lincoln’s driver was too long, and this is a common problem for many golfers. He cut down his driver right there, which should immediately save Lincoln some strokes.

I’ll go into more detail as I cover each club and what was looked at and share some pictures.

“It was cool to learn about different aspects of equipment and how it can affect your game. It was very helpful and helped coach and I make  some good decisions about equipment changes I should make to help further the work we are doing together. It’s crazy that only a degree or two of lie angle can make such a big difference. Getting a fitting can help a golfer in many ways, and it might be a good idea to consider getting one done.” ~ Lincoln Nascimento [My student who received the fitting]

In our club fitting , Charles had Lincoln warm up and get loose in the hitting bay. After that, Lincoln hit several 7-irons to get some baseline numbers from Trackman . Key areas that were looked at included:

• Where on the clubface strikes were made at impact
• The path Lincoln was swinging as he approached the ball at impact
• Whether his clubface was square, open, or closed at impact
• His spin rate on shots
• His overall shot dispersion

Once these baseline readings were made, Charles measured the lie angle of Lincoln’s 7-iron and its length . These factors often play a key role in the patterns a golfer shows in their shots.

Lincoln’s irons were pretty close to the standards for the club brand he plays.

Result: With all the information gathered, Lincoln hit a second 7-iron that was more upright than the standard . This significantly helped balance out where on the face he was making contact with the ball and tightened up his shot distribution.

Next up was the putter fitting stage of the session. The Science and Motion , or SAM PuttLab, was used in this area. This awesome technology helps take a deep dive into the dynamics of golfers’ putting and how their path and face react at impact.

Putting is very much an individual thing and is as much a feel and comfort thing as anything else.  If a golfer can consistently deliver the putter face squarely into the ball at impact, then how they accomplish that does not matter. What you are looking for with poor putters is issues with face control   at impact  and things like distance control.

Lincoln’s putting is consistent regarding how his face comes into the ball at impact. While there were some suggestions for putters to try, we were both pleased with how his baseline numbers looked .

Result: No changes were made to his putter.

Following the putter fitting, Charles worked with Lincoln on his wedges. With a wedge fitting, like with the irons, the fitter looks first to see a player’s tendencies.

Charles had Lincoln hit several full swing, half swing, and open face lob shots with each of his wedges . Things that are being looked at with the wedges include:

• The bounce on each wedge
• The grind on each wedge
• Gapping a player has between wedges
• Club length, shaft type, and grip

Result:  Based on the findings of Lincoln’s tendencies and performance with his current wedges, some suggestions were made to slightly modify his gapping, lofts, and ever so slight changes to his bounces.

The final stage of Lincoln’s full bag fitting focused on his woods and driver. Most of the time spent in this area was focused on his driver.

Once again, the process is pretty much the same as was the case with the irons and wedges. Lincoln started by getting warmed up and then proceeded to get into capturing data with his current driver.

Again, a baseline is set to see his tendencies, and then the actual fitting or suggesting of changes is made.

Key Takeaway: The biggest insight with this portion of the fitting was the massive difference between the length of a driver on the PGA TOUR vs. what the average amateur carries in their bag. The PGA TOUR average driver length is 44.75”, compared to the average amateur’s driver clocking in at 45.5” to 46.5”.

Charles quickly pointed out that most drivers are simply too long for the average golfer , which is a big reason why control is such an issue.

Result: Lincoln and I agreed, and he chopped his driver down to help gain more control off the tee.

Now, this may sound great, but what is the cost of a PGA TOUR Superstore Club Fitting? Well, types and pricing may vary depending on the store location. The following is pricing at my local store in Altamonte Springs, FL.

At stores using technology like the Trackman and SAMPuttLab, most individual club fittings range between $49 and $99. The Full Bag Fittings cost $300.

Here’s a quick breakdown:

• A 25-minute performance evaluation for any club: $49
• A fairway, hybrid, or wedge fitting: $59
• A driver, iron, or putter fitting: $99
• A Studio Full Bag Fitting (3 hours): $300

At stores that don’t use as expensive technology, you’ll pay around $40 for an individual club fitting. The Full Bag Fittings cost $99.

Club Fittings to Consider:

Our fitter, Charles, walked us through a prioritized list of clubs you should get a fitting for if you couldn’t afford a full bag fitting or just need help with one or two clubs.

Each store has varying options and prices, so check the offerings and prices at your local store . You can book a reservation now if you’re ready.

I always believed that combining regular golf instruction and club fitting could pay big dividends to any golfer. After going through a full-bag three-hour fitting session at the PGA TOUR Superstore, I am now convinced that a proper fitting is something that all serious golfers need to do.

Golf equipment off the shelf or purchased online is not one-size-fits-all.

• Having clubs that are too long, too heavy, or don’t have the right lie angle can absolutely cost you strokes.
• Having a toe-hang putter, when you are better off with a face-balanced one, can cost you strokes.
• Having wedges with improper gapping or an incorrect bounce can also cost you strokes.

Getting a proper fitting done can truly help your game.

“Regardless of your level of play, getting custom-fit golf clubs offers some key advantages. From drivers to putters, it’s important that each club in the bag adds to a player’s skills while compensating for their tendencies. It is far better to improve your game using golf clubs that match your swing characteristics and don’t impede your improvement.” Alyssa Hockenbury, General Manager of PGA TOUR Superstore in Altamonte Springs, FL

The PGA TOUR Superstore brand is owned and operated by Arthur Blank . In addition to the PGA TOUR Superstores, Blank is also the co-founder of Home Depot and owner of the Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta United FC.

Founded in 2003, the PGA TOUR Superstore is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, and currently has 76 locations throughout the United States. Florida has the most locations with 10, followed by Texas with nine, and California and Illinois with six locations each.

In addition to being one of the country’s largest “big box” golf stores, offering a massive selection of golf equipment, apparel, and more, PGTSS offers other great services and benefits, including:

• Club Repair
• Fitting Services
• Numerous Lesson Programs and Packages
• In-Store Special Events

PGA TOUR Superstore uses varies types of high-quality launch monitors by Trackman and Foresight GC2s. Both are premium launch monitors professional golfers use to track and improve their swing. Trackman is the leader in the launch monitor sector of the game. The data from the Trackman monitors at the PGA TOUR Superstore are very accurate.

PGA TOUR Superstore is owned and operated by Arthur Blank, the co-founder of Home Depot. Blank is also the owner of the Atlanta Falcons and Atlanta United FC.

Employees of the PGA TOUR Superstore do not make commissions. Sales associates won’t try to pressure you for a sale to make a commission. Glassdoor.com says they make between $40 and $63K annually regardless. Indeed.com states Retail Sales Associates make around $14 per hour.

You can try out a large selection of irons and other clubs at the PGA TOUR Superstore. The best way to truly see what clubs may be best for you is to get a fitting while there. If you are buying clubs, you can get a basic fitting for free as the associate helps you find the right clubs.

You can get free fittings at PGA TOUR Superstores if you are buying clubs from them. A rep will let you test out the equipment in the hitting bays and help you find the right clubs to fit your swing tendencies. But it won’t be as in-depth as a full-bag club fitting. Pricing varies by location, but you can review the prices at your local PGATSS and book a reservation online.

I hope this PGA TOUR Superstore Club Fitting review has proven helpful for you. It is crazy to me, after 27 years working in the golf business and the last 15 years as a PGA Professional, that I have never watched a full bag fitting in its entirety.

When I left the fitting my student Lincoln went through at the PGA TOUR Superstore, my appreciation for the work club fitters do to help people enjoy the game more grew by leaps and bounds. I sincerely appreciated my experience at the PGATSS and know my student also gained a great deal from it.

If you have been on the fence about getting professionally fit for golf equipment, I will say this… don’t hesitate any longer, as a fitting can be what your game has been looking for.

PGA Tour Superstore Plans To Open At Least Eight More Stores in 2022

After a very successful 2021, the Blank Family of Businesses is set to open at least eight more PGA Tour Superstores in 2022. The first new location of 2022 is set to open up tomorrow, February 5th, in Tampa, FL.

The company is also eyeing new markets to target this year including Philadelphia, PA, Rockville, MD, and Charlotte, NC.

            View this post on Instagram                         A post shared by PGA TOUR Superstore (@pgatoursuperstore)

President and CEO of the PGA Tour Superstore told HBSDealer.com:

“We did more business in the first half of 2021 than we did in the full-year of 2019 which was a record year for us at the time. It has been incredible to see new people having fun and enjoying the game, and our business is uniquely equipped to meet the needs of that audience through our in-store and online experiences.”

Women’s soft goods were on the rise as well in 2021 as women’s apparel was up 59% and women’s footwear was up 67% compared to 2020.

In-store lessons were also up compared to 2019 by 64% in 2021.

This does not come as a surprise to me at all. The PGA Tour Superstore is like heaven for any golfer. They have basically anything that any golfer could ever need there. They carry all the top brands and have a huge in store stock.

Adding more stores in different locations will allow for more golfers to experience just how great the PGA Tour Superstore truly is.

Golf Galaxy vs PGA Superstore: What’s the Difference?

When you look at the price of golf clubs and other equipment, it becomes paramount to ensure you’re getting the right one.

Because, if your tool is not the right fitting, you will not only waste money but can also injure yourself while playing.

No wonder there are dozens of club-fitting stores; more keeps opening up.

The most popular right now seem to be Golf Galaxy, PGA Superstore, Club Champion, etc. Unfortunately, fitting into these clubs can sometimes be hit or miss.

And while they have different names, they all look to be similar. So, how can you differentiate?

By considering the experience of other golfers who have gone there to fit as well as the pricing model for each.

In this article, we’ll be looking at and comparing both PGA Superstore and Golf Galaxy. Keep reading.

Golf Galaxy vs PGA Superstore: Which is Better?

The truth is that the experience of each golf at each fitting store may differ. While some prefer GG over PGASS, others find the opposite to be true.

The most important is the employee that fits you.

If you meet the right employee, both can work for you. Unfortunately, it can be the other way around too.

It can also depend on the location too since that can affect the tool available and ultimately the performance.

However, that doesn’t mean there can’t be one that is universally better than the other. Fortunately, that’s what this article aims to give you.

To let you know what most people feel more comfortable with between the two.

Pricing Model

In terms of pricing, they are pretty similar. However, PGASS actually offers a free fitting while GG starts at around $100.

That means you will be able to try the clubs on a club monitor and see where you go from there.

Another service that PGASS also offer is Tour Van Experience where you work with a professional to try out different stock shafts until you find the right feel, look, and performance.

That makes them cheaper than GG, which would make sense for anyone looking at it from a pricing point of view.

Recognition & Miscellaneous Features

Golf Galaxy has a greater brand recognition than PGA Superstore in general.

PGA is reported to have more convenient customer support and also offers zip financing and international shipping policies which Golf Galaxy doesn’t.

PGA also doesn’t accept PayPal payments and modification of policies which Golf Galaxy gives the liberty to.

Both brands offer frequent discounts and promotions during holidays or festive sessions, one might watch out for those.

Locations to Fit

The main difference between Golf Galaxy and PGA Tour Superstore will be the number of locations they’re available in.

Golf Galaxy has 35 stores and PGA has 22, both brands are spread around the States – but they also have online stores.

This means you are more likely to come across a Golf Galaxy store than a PGA Superstore, and Golf Galaxy probably has more exposure and a higher chance of risk than PGA.

The retail brands also offer fitting services at their various locations but Golf Galaxy also gives you the option of scheduling an online session.

Service Variety

PGA Superstore provides fewer fitting services than Golf Galaxy: putter, golf ball, wedge, iron, and driver fitting, and an upgraded fitting experience via the PGA Tour Superstore studio.

Golf Galaxy has a more flexible range of choices which includes the services offered by PGA Superstore and a bit more: hybrid analysis, shaft fitting, grip fitting analysis, club comparison, and a virtual club advisor.

Club Champion vs Big Box Stores

The advantage of Club Champion is that their testing option is limitless, compared to both Golf Galaxy and PGA Superstore and other big box stores.

These stores are only able to use the shaft options that are available to them through the manufacturer.

And the branches vary in what is available to them.

The only advantage is that they are cheaper than Club Champion. So, if you can’t afford the expensive club fitting, then you can go with PGA Superstore.

At least, they have more goodwill than their counterpart.

Final Thoughts on GG and PGASS

The general thought of both box stores is that their services are generally poor.

A lot of golfers who have gone fitting for both GG and PGASS have complained of extremely poor fitting, which eventually affects their club pricing.

Most recommend Club Champion, so if you have one in your location, you may want to consider that.

Book with Greg Enbusk for fittings or lesions!!! I scheduled a 3hr Full Bag fitting with Greg Enbusk and it was absolutely incredible. Not only was Greg extremely knowledgeable and helpful, he was just a great guy to be around. He started off the fitting ensuring I knew there's no judgements or need for me to feel self conscious about skill level or my swing and that we're here for one simple purpose and that's to improve my game. There was also no sales pitch or eventual attempt to set me up with gear that fit a bottom line more than it fit me. He led with "I don't work on commission so let's just find you the right clubs for you." Now apart from how personable he was, the session was even more insightful and helpful to my golf game. I learned things about my swing and habits that I never realized were the contributing factors to how I hit the ball. Specifically understanding where my club face is making contact with the ball and how I and upgraded clubs can help that situation. I walked away with recommendations for each club type in my bag and ended up upgrading my irons the following week based on his recommendation. I've played 2 rounds with my new irons and have dropped about 10 points of my game. Without a doubt I'm just hitting straighter and father as well. Also, my wife had done a mini-fitting with him the day before. She had never golfed before and was very unsure of what she should expect but was immediately met with the same warm and comforting approach I received. She's also got a starter set on the way courtesy of Greg's recommendations and has high enthusiasm for getting started with golf. I obviously had a rough idea of the positive experience I could expect with Greg based on my wife's but those expectations were exceeded for sure. Do yourself a favor and if you're in need of a club/bag fitting or a lesson, book time with Greg Enbusk! He's the absolute man!!!

Greg Enbusk helped me with a full bag fitting and it was an amazing experience! The visit took 3 hours and I learned so much about my swing and what works best for me, thanks to Greg's guidance and experience. His knowledge, patience and fun personality helped us design clubs that have improved my game tremendously. I'll be going back in for some quick lessons and a putter fitting. Thanks Greg for your assistance and I look forward to coming back in soon!

Greg Enbusk is the man! He was able to help me get fit for my current irons and adjust the lie angles all in one session/day. Highly recommend! This location is inside the Five Irons golf store!

My birthday present from my husband was getting fitted for clubs. Greg Enbusk was amazing because he was super knowledgeable, patient, and most importantly, he didn't make me feel bad whatsoever about how good/bad I was at golf. He used the data of my swings but also asked me how I felt since he wanted me to be confident, feel good, etc. He helped hone in which clubs are the best for my swing and thought about the future instead of my current level. I really enjoyed my club fitting and I would 100% take lessons from him.

I recently visited Seattle and had a full bag club fitting with Greg Enbusk. He assisted getting me all set up for the fitting by providing me a brief overview of what information would be looking at and how we would move through the bag to evaluate all the clubs. After getting the diagnostic swings with my irons out of the way we looked at the fitting options available for irons and then he selected some shaft options that best fit with my swing speed. He helped dial my irons in and we saw improvements in distance, club striking, and consistency. We repeated this process for drivers, woods, hybrids, and wedges, seeing continuous improvement from my clubs to the fitted clubs. After we got all the clubs dialed in Greg provided me with a print out of the custom clubs he was recommending. Greg provided me with a lot of knowledge about how the fitting process worked and I saw the improvements not only during the session, but on the course after I received my custom fit clubs. I highly recommend getting fit for clubs as they can drastically affect your golf game.
