Best club fitters in California

[r32]

Let's hear them. I want to know if there is a 'Tom Wishon' of California? Your experience and how much did it cost?

 

Looking for the full club fitting experience from driver to putter and ready to drop cash this Spring. Willing to drive anywhere in the state for a true fitter, but closer to Bay Area than LA area. The places in my area consist of a lie-board and a few swings on a computer to get 'fitted', but after reading other posts here, I know that's not a true fitting where you try different shafts, etc.

 

Also, I'm a lefty so should I ask ahead of time to see what clubs they have available for lefty? I'd like to try Mizuno and Titleist for irons and pretty open on the driver side and putter side of things so long as it's not Nike.

You're in the Bay Area?

Go see Joe Kwok... He's a sponsor here and is in Daly City, I believe.

I've not had a fitting with him but had a few conversations with him (I wanted a driver fitting) and he was more than happy to talk about my game and what I needed (I needed to practice hitting my driver is what it came down to... Haha.). I'm down to a 6 but when I first talked to Joe I was a 16 and couldn't hit the driver if my life depended on it. He told me to get some lessons to work out my swing issues... I didn't do that but I figured out most of my issues.

Good guy.

Nor Cal wise, for fitting if you want to stay on the SF side of the bay, go see John Taylor in SF - 415-587-9815 or 415-334-4550. If the east bay is more convenient, then go see Michael Lee Clark in Berkeley - 510-841-0972. I've known them both for many years from many of the fitting and clubmaking seminars that I have taught in the past at various clubmaker conventions and trade shows that they attended.
