The third of three Shaft Up Events gets underway with two lucky THPers winning an all expenses paid trip to Chicago to play Olympia Fields with UST Mamiya and THP.

The itinerary loosely looks like this.

Wednesday
Arrivals in the morning
Afternoon Golf at Olympia Fields
Check into Lodging at Olympia Fields
Group Dinner

Thursday
Breakfast and UST Mamiya Education
Player Fitting
Golf at Olympia Fields

Every participant at Shaft Up in 2018 receives
New Cobra driver
Airfare
Hotel Accomodations
Food
SWAG
And of course the chance at a SECOND FREE TRIP called the Grand Finale that takes place later in the year. The odds of getting into the Grand Finale are 50%, so not too shabby.

Its time! After a great night with Danny and Ryan, we are up early and will head towards the airport to pick the guys up upon their arrival in the 9:30am time frame.
 
Can't wait to follow along with this one and see how these guys get fit.
 
I can’t wait to follow along! Great info on fittings and how different shafts effect the ball flight and spin. It has really helped me as a less experience golfer.

Travel safe guys. I did a club fitting at Olympia Fields back in 2014, but never had a chance to play it. You're in for a big treat.

Safe travels its ShaftUp time!!!
 
Oooo this is gonna be fun!!! Rain or shine, golf must go on (Strikes a Celine Dion pose)

If I had won, you all would be bombarded with Americana pictures of stuff seen on the interstate - I'm a sucker for "10,000 Hubcaps at next exit" signs. And there would be tons of pictures of me stuffing my face at Lou Malnotti's.
