    Team Titleist Members; Would like any input you may have concerning getting fit for a new 915D2 driver. I know a authorized fitting is the best way to go, but the fitters at my local city courses have one fitter that I don't really trust that he knows what he doing, and the other fitter (as I've heard from other players) seems to want to only put his clients in Ing products, so I don't want to spend my money for a fitting like that. Maybe if Cathi, Will, or Bubba might weigh in and give me their opinion on some fitters in the Springfield Mo. area. Also, do you have any info about Demo Days in my area? That would be a good place to get fit, if we have one. I've had several folks tell me to go to our local club repair shop for a fitting. I went there and talked to the owner, and he told me he would put me on Track Man with my present driver, and sent the numbers to Titleist, and they would recommend the head and shaft that I need. Does this sound like a good idea. I'm not that great of a player but I do want the best set up I can get. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks in advance; Norris:

    Hi Norris,

    After reading your post I contacted our Sales Rep in Kansas City and I have some great info to pass along. Here are your 3 best options…

    1 Our Midwest Performance Fitting Van will be in Springfield April 9th-11th. They will be at Hickory Hills on Friday April 10th. Glenn Mahler is one of the fitters on the Midwest Van and I was able to spend a week with him last year. I learned more just watching him fit than I could have ever imagined. You would need to contact Rick Neal at Hickory Hills (417.866.4384) to schedule a time with Glenn.

    2 If you aren't able to go get fit by Glenn then Rick at Hickory Hills is also a very good fitter.

    3 Brian Maloney at Highland Springs CC (417.886.0408) is a prominent fitter for us that would also do a great job.

    Personally I wouldn't pass up an opportunity to get fit by Glenn Mahler. He is an incredible fitter and an even better person. I can't say enough good things about him. You have three great options and you can't go wrong with any of them. Best of luck and keep us posted!

    Will; Can't thank you enough for your help with my dilemma about finding a club fitter, and taking the time to make the contacts for me. I will defiantly contact Rick at Hickory Hills, and set up an appointment with Glenn on April 10th. So much looking forward to the fitting. I'm so very thankful that I am a Team Titleist member, and have such great folks like you that will work so hard to help your customers, and members. That's another reason why I'm a Titleist guy forever. Thank You again Will, and I'll be sure to keep you up to date on the fitting. Norris:

    Just wanted to say thank you so very much Will, for all the help, and info you gave me for my fitting set up here in Springfield, Mo. It took a while with the bad weather, and snow because Hickory Hills GC has been closed, and Rick was out of town, but I got with him this week, and I have a fitting set up for my driver, and fairways on April 10th. Can't say enough to express how much I appreciate you and all at Team Titleist. Titleist guy forever. Norris:

    Thank you for the compliment Norris, it's a pleasure to assist you and other Team Titleist members when I can. I wanted to take this opportunity to let you and the rest of Team Titleist know that I will be starting a new position with the company. I am moving to Houston TX as the National Account Sales Rep for that area. I will be calling on some of our off course accounts like Golf Galaxy, Golfsmith, Edwin Watts and Dick's Sporting Goods. It has been wonderful getting to know many of you and I hope our paths cross again someday. For all the Houstonians, please let me know if I can assist you in any club related questions or fitting opportunities.

    Sincerely,

    Will

    Congratulations on your new job, Will. I'm sure you'll do well in it, and you'll enjoy living in Houston, although it's a really big place. I'm from the Dallas area, and we always thought of Houston as the "Big City". Thank you so much for all the great help, and advice you have given us, and we will sure miss you. You are a big part of what Team Titleist is today. Good luck in all your endeavors, and thanks again for all you've done for us. Norris:

    Update; I'm hoping that Will sees this update, and I wanted to thank him again for setting me up with Glen Mahler from Titleist. I had my fitting for my woods with Glen and Rick Neal, head Pro at Hickory Hills CC in Springfield, Mo. on Friday 4-10-15. I must say that it was the most informative and fun experience I've ever had. Glen and Rick treated me so well, and I learned so much from them. They walked me through the whole program, and explained each step of the way. They not only gave me a great fitting for the right equipment for me, but they also told me they were there to help me make my swing better. They didn't try to change my swing, just make what I had better, and Glen and Rick sure did help me with that also. I can't say enough good things about Glen, Rick, and Chad Homsey, Titleist's Sales Rep. I hope everyone at TT gets the opportunity to have a fitting from a Titleist fitter, and I know you'll never regret it. Thank you again Will, Glen, Rick, and Chad. So, glad to be a Team Titleist member, and get to know the great folks at Titleist. Norris:
