Bought a Super Fast Driver today! Woo Hoo:banana:
Yesterday I demoed a few clubs at a local pro shop at my local driving range. White Mountain Pro Shop in Orland Park, IL.
Orland Park claims to be the golf capital of the world. It's on the water towers, "Golf Capital Of The World"
I did not buy yesterday because I wanted to do some research and bring in some old clubs for trade in. Decided to stop at Dick's and Golf Galaxy. Nobody waited on me! At either store. I even to full swings in mid isle. They saw me. I look like I want to buy stuff. Wear expensive clothes, drive a BMW in case they would have watched me pull up.
So I went back to White Mountain. Traded 3 old clubs for $85. Got 10% off the Super Fast. $250 - 10%. Had a gift card for $100 :clapp:
AND, then I realized why I like my local pro shop. The owner remembers what I bought over the years, is a pretty good golfer, not a teenager or a housewife working the sales floor, AND I get to demo clubs there on a range with grass tees WHENEVER I want to!
I asked my guy about getting the TP over the regular Super Fast. He knows my game and watches be on the range occasionally and we agreed that I do not need more open, 3 degrees, that the TP provides.
He had the best price on top of the best services. I asked about the concern over the Winn grip wearing out. He told me he will re grip my driver free anytime within the next year. Worn out or not.
