For an experiment, I tried playing a shovel over the weekend for 9. I don't usually play wide sole ultra game improvement heads. Heads I put in play were S...

scotts33 The local component store has them. Migawd they look ridiculous. Bigger than the front bumper on my truck! 😲
If you can take a divot with them, you are moving some earth.

Par4QC You have a local component store? Do tell.

DonM Mostly Hireko toys, along with some Swing Science. Various overpriced OEM shafts also. They now carry Tour Edge also. They have a full service shop, and have been in business quite a long time. They also had a deal with big chain stores that sell complete sets and used to build them in the old Farmall factory. Out of that biz now that the OEM prices are lower. Still, they do a ton of local business.

I'm treated like Norm, from Cheers, when I walk in!😄

We just purchased some a couple nights ago. My goal is to have a good sized pole barn on the property for all my toys and to do my side work. One large area will be dedicated to my equipment repair/car repair area. Then a area for a clubfitting studio and club repair.

Swing science sounds like something I may take a look at. I was actually thinking of being or doing the Tour Edge thing but not sure. If I do a online search for Tour Edge you won’t find any fitters in my area.

Tour Edge has a more brand name presence than SS. I like SS 1 day shipping from Indy is a plus and free shipping over $100. I don't worry about other brand fitters in my area. You are selling your expertise not some brand. Once you realize that in the long haul you will succeed. I've been doing club fitting and custom build out MoI heft match and TLT which separates myself from industry std. 1/2" length graduation and swing weight. Define your business and golfers will seek you out as you are different than others/majority.

Sell yourself not some brand. Over 35+ years now and majority of brands have come and gone. Tieing to a brand is a mistake IMO.

I use their shafts which play very well, steel and graphite, and are consistent in specs. In the past, I've also had their hybrids and driver heads. All were of excellent quality and performance. Pricing was in line, or more reasonable, of other component companies. Never tried any of their irons, iirc.

I have used every Swing Science product in the past 10 years or more. If you want to know what's good and what isn't lmk.
