Why page 10? Because there are only ten pages on this website, now that you know my mindset, here goes. You would be amazed or not, on the questions I get asked, or things that I am told,---- here are some of my all time favorite.
Hey buddy (go figure he thought my name was Buddy) where is your used glub-bin, silly me I thought he said club, so I showed him the few used clubs we had, wrong he wanted the used glove-bin, so I showed him where the trash can was, yea you guessed it he went dumpster diving.
I had one gentleman bring in his own grips and asked me to install them, we gladly will do this for you for a fee, which I told him up front, he was either deaf or he thought I was stupid, after I was done he dug around in his pocket and tried to give me 28 cents for my trouble, I asked him if he took his own eggs to the Waffle House, I don't think he became a regular customer. Another guy came in with a name brand club (from a big box store) and said he hit just fine in the store, but when he got to the course it was a different story, he wanted me to install one of my premium after market shafts for no charge and I could keep the stock shaft for my trouble------we have another winner.
One guy came in, nice & friendly sort of fellow and asked me to look at his clubs, he explained to me that he likes to tinker in his garage so he decided to install his own grips, but he had trouble controlling his clubs, they seem to turn in his hand, after checking his equipment yes they did turn in your hand, I asked him what he used for solvent to install his grips? Are you ready KY Jelly he said, enough said!
One over-inflated-opinion-of-his-talent golfer came in and wanted a free fitting so that he could go to the big box place and buy himself a set of clubs that I would guarantee, Yea right.
Another man dropped in, literally. It was a Sunday afternoon and he fell thru the front doors he had his clubs on one shoulder and a beer in his hand (he did not spill the beer and was not driving), he asked it I regripped clubs? Yes I said, there they are he said and left. I picked up the clubs and put them away. About two months later I get a call from a young man asking if he left some clubs there, I asked him to describe them and he told me,he also told me they were is bosses clubs, but could not remember where he left them, and his boss wanted them back because he got fired today for drinking on the job.
Lessons-guys if the only shot you know is hosel rocket don't bring your buddy in and start giving lessons in one of our hitting bays and then tell your friend he needs to buy his clubs on the internet, used clubs are like used cars, no one ever got rid of a used car because it drove too good. And if I give you a lesson you will pay me my fee, whether I help you work on your game or spend an hour listening on how good you are and what you saw on TV.
Custom fitting on the internet? WHAT! Unfortunately we @ sg Sport are not that good, besides my "way-back" machine is in the shop, they are waiting on parts, should be in by Tuesday. Mr. Peabody will stay on top of this.
This page will change from time to time as new things come up and trust me they will, as always spelling and punctuation don’t count on this page.
And if you recognize yourself lets keep it a secret, because if you yell and fuss at me, I will tell on you!
Think-about the equipment you are about to buy and why?
Challenge-yourself to play better, practice with a purpose!
Succeed-you will, failure is not an option!
