Wish I knew this was a possible career back in the day
@trottiegolf8 ай бұрын
Worked my 🍑 off for this to be a career, I wouldn't say it was something our careers advisor had in mind back in high school 🤣 I know it's cliche but honestly I just love golf and always wanted to be a part of it and when I couldn't do the whole playing deal well tour and either coaching or fitting was gonna be the next goal. The fitting came first, that's the route I took. As for the social platform and what this has become that was all seeing a change in the market and exposing what I've done for the last two decades. Again a cliche and not wanting to tell you what you already know but this was just year on year, work on work and then we ended up here. Kinda cool and certainly enjoying the process..... for now 🤠

@@trottiegolf yeah, my advisor would have never mentioned this. I've built some of my own clubs, do my own regripping and make adjustments to my woods based on my current game. Technically, this would have been something I feel I would have been good at. Love these videos, they've re-peaked my interest in club fitting. I'm going to get back into building for myself.

How does an average low handicap guy get a fitting like this? If you’re somebody that actually has higher swing speed, shoots low single digits and could actually benefit from this, other than spending an insane amount of money assuming thousands of dollars to come out there is there a way to get fitted even close to the level? I would kill to go through this.
