THP Experiences
A few years ago we did a great THP Experience where 24 THPers got to head to AZ and play some fun team golf and also tour PING HQ.

 
That putter room tho...
 
I’d easily go vault first. I’m sure getting fit and demoing at an OEM is an enhanced experience, but you can get a version of good fittings elsewhere. There’s only one vault…😍
 
The fitting and demoing can wait; the vault is calling!
 
Many have wine rooms, THP'ers have putter rooms.
 
You know.. I think the vault is cool. But it honestly does not do much for me at the moment. Maybe seeing it in person would change that.
 
One room that I would absolutely love to step foot in for just a few minutes of my life.
 
I had to back out of that event 😢
 
That would be so neat to see in person.
 
That vault is awesome and would (or could) be a once in a lifetime experience. Something like that would be amazing to see in person. It would just be a fond memory as much as anything else.
 
First thing would be to tour the custom builds shop. Always interested in the way they adjusted lies with a mallet and the camera used to make measurements.

Touring Ping would be a dream! Vault would be the highlight.

It’s not the most visually appealing or inviting HQ but definitely some cool stuff to see.
 
That vault is super cool and would be a first stop for me. Great history in there!

Having toured one of the most technologically advanced golf companies (Callaway) and then comparing to this tour (Ping) was night and day.

It was kind of like comparing this

To this

I kind of like the old school approach that Ping has to an extent but it's pretty amazing how different there are.
 
That was a fun time.
