	Golfers Near and Far Loved Their Custom Fitting Experience at CGC. Click here to read letters.

If you're not playing with equipment that is fit to your swing, you're not playing to your potential. Imagine how easy golf could be if the problem is with your clubs, not with the way you swing them!

CGC offers the most extensive outdoor, on the driving range custom-fitting capability in Southern California. It is vitally important to see ball flight - and you can do that on our 300+ yard range.

You'll team with a certified clubfitting professional to determine your personal specifications for shaft length & flex, grip size, loft, lie & head style using a FlightScope golf ball tracking and information system for analysis and verification.

NEW for 2008!

More than a launch monitor, the FlightScope (Kudu model) not only determines the launch conditions of a golf ball but also tracks the ball during its flight to provide unsurpassed data about the launch and resultant ball trajectory.

We have hundreds of fitting woods and irons so that, in most cases, you’ll get to hit and see the ball flight of the club(s) fit to your specifications. This applies to the many brands we fit for men, women and even hard-to-find left-handed clubs. In addition to fitting new clubs, we also offer Retro-Fitting Services for your existing clubs to determine if you would benefit from adjustments or a club change.

In order to make sure you get the personal attention you deserve during your custom-fitting or retro-fitting, all sessions are BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. Walk-ins will be accommodated only if one of our fitters is available. You’ll be fit by a certified clubfitting professional, plus all custom-fittings include verification with the FlightScope system. Call the pro shop to check appointment availability: 760-720-4653.

All brands except Lange, which are specifically designed for women, may be fit for both men and women. For any of the brands we stock, our state-of-the-art technology will make sure the irons and woods you've chosen are the proper ones for you and your swing.

Why should you be fit for clubs?
If the clubs you're currently using are inappropriate for your swing, an array of errant shots may arise. The wrong shaft length or flex may cause lack of distance, hooks or slices. Playing with the wrong lie will have an effect on your trajectory, or can cause pulls, pushes, hooks or slices. The grip size can affect the way you hold the club, and may cause hooks or slices or too much tension in your hands.

Think you're not good enough?
Actually, it's just the opposite. A highly-skilled player can compensate for ill-fit equipment better than a lesser-skilled player. In fact, it may be the equipment that is holding you back from reaching your potential. Many players see significant improvement in their game with new equipment or adjustments to their existing clubs.

Aren't custom-fit clubs expensive?
Contrary to popular belief, it does NOT cost more to have clubs that are fit to you. Whether you choose in-stock or custom-made clubs, you'll get our 30-day guaranteed low price and we'll stay within your budget. CGC custom-fits many brands and price ranges of equipment for men and women so that we have something for everyone. Saving money on clubs is never a good reason to play the wrong equipment. Remember, we take trade-ins for your existing clubs to help you offset the cost of new ones.

Who should fit you?
Trust only those who are certified club fitters. These professionals have been trained to collect and analyze data about individual swings and translate the information to proper specifications for customized clubs. Major manufacturers such as the ones CGC sells provide hours of training on each of their specific products and fitting systems.

What happens in a custom fitting session?
A custom fitting session usually takes about a half-hour, although we'll work with you for as long as it takes for you to be satisfied. You'll team with one of our certified fitters to find clubs that feel good to you. You'll test a variety of styles and shaft flexes from different manufacturers, using face and sole tape to indicate your points of impact and swing path. We use the FlightScope system to compare individual club performance, calculate ball spin rates, launch speeds and angles, and verify what you feel and what we see in determining the clubs with optimal performance for you.

Why is club-testing better at a driving range?
Unlike stores where you hit directly into a net, testing clubs at a driving range like ours allows you to actually see where the ball goes. Ball flight results are extremely important in determining proper club fit. Many times it appears you've hit the ball straight, only to see it hook or fade before landing. You simply cannot see this hitting into a net or cage.

How do I schedule a fit?
In an effort to provide the proper amount of time and individual attention, we offer clubfitting by appointment only. Walk-ins will be accommodated on an open slot basis. Please send an email to info@carlsbadgc.com, or call the Carlsbad Golf Center pro shop to check appointment availability at 760-720 GOLF (4653).

What happens after a fit session?
You'll never be pressured to make a purchase. We keep your personal specifications until you're ready to make a decision. Even after you buy, we keep your specifications on file so that you can add or replace a club to your set at any time. If you choose in-stock clubs, you're out practicing on the range right away. Custom-made clubs are usually shipped within five days from order placement at the manufacturer.

We know you'll be thrilled with your new equipment, however there are no returns on custom orders.

Warm up Mug Ogg Don't rush to the first tee or just start pounding balls at the range. Give yourself time to warm up and your body will thank you because the muscles you use in golf need to be stretched. Stretching can improve your game, especially if you stretch properly. If your muscles are tense, it can lead to an injury. A few stretches to try before you hit balls or go out and play: Put a club behind your back and just turn slowly to each side. Then, put the club overhead and tilt to each side. Stretching your shoulders, take right arm across chest, take left a hand and pull right arm towards chest. Switch and do left arm. Tilt neck to each side of shoulder. Never bounce when you stretch.
