I would really enjoy a follow-up video of Josh playing a round out on a course with his new clubs.
100% would love to see this.
yes please!
Do you recommend a place to get fitted in CANADA?
@@eddieray8095Check out TXG. I think they fall under the Club Champion umbrella now.

I paid $60 to get fitted with wedges at pga superstore, and he re-worked all my iron angles for free to do a proper gaping. I also bought $600 in new wedges though.
Heard good things about pga superstore.
3 $200 wedges. they cashed out on you
@@krusher74 the zipcore wedges are like 160 a piece, plus the fitting
Love this type of video. I’m a first year golfer and got fitted from the hand me down set I started the season with. HUGE improvements in all aspects but most importantly my confidence levels are so much higher with clubs that are tailored to my needs
Yes.....self confidence goes a long way and with decent clubs it's less stressful.
I didn't get fitted until 8 months into taking lessons because I wanted the fundamentals down to produce a relatively repeatable swing. I did gain about about 15-20 yards per iron and at least 30 on the Driver. I feel like if you don't have a somewhat repeatable swing when fit, you might have to get refitted again if and when you eventually take lessons and your swing changes (for the better hopefully) lol
Exactly this! Idk why she's telling people who've just picked up the game to get fitted. It's just a waste of time and money until you have a decent swing.
@@Nobody2day553 well she works for them lol. She might get commission for people who go to that location.
@@noahbrown9708 that's what I'm saying.. if any other UA-camr done this...they would have paid for the clubs because they would have made double or more from UA-cam.
@@Nobody2day553 I was waiting for them to hook brother up with an entire bag of clubs. ofc not. Also so typical of club champion to fit into fully custom shafts instead of stock offerings from manufacturers. Also if he knew the price of the grips vs getting the free tour velvet... he would probably prefer that too lol.
Paige how many times have we told you, never bring back stray golfers!!!! Thanks I am here all week.
I went to Club Champion for a putter fitting. They are great. I did tell them they should thank you since that is how I found them.
My first new set was northwestern from venture dept store, they were blades and I loved them.
I like how Paige is such a thoughtful ambassador for her sponsors. This is a great video to demonstrate the value of a company who believes in Paige.
Damn mid 90’s is impressive with that swing
Yup! He must be a putting wizard!? Ha!
Good stuff Paige. I’m an advocate for club fitting as well. It’s nice to see the process for an average golfer rather than just seeing people get fit that swing 110 to 120 mph. Keep these coming!
Always an advocate for club fitting. About to start the process for new irons for the upcoming season. currently playing Wilson Staff C300 forged irons, but looking for a bit more of a players iron now as my game as improved significantly since I was fit into these. Hopefully I can find something that I can play for the next 4-5 years
Great Video, Paige. I have never seen a club fitting session. Very Informative. Thank you!
Definitely useful information for dialing in your shot! Many golfers miss out on these key steps when buying clubs.
This is wildest display of showmanship out of a club fitter I’ve ever seen 😂
Great video. Everyone should get fit if they can. It makes a huge difference. Josh did a great job maintaining custody of his eyes. I'm sure he'll enjoy the new clubs.
Great video Paige and very timely for me! I'm going to Club Champion next week for a fitting. Very excited! I had a fitting done 5 years ago but after watching Club Champions process I'm convinced the fitting I had missed a lot of key components.
Where are the comments on Josh's miss at 2:58 ? 😂
I laughed for a good minute after it 😂
I cut my handicap in half by changing from stiff shaft to regular flex and using all 14 clubs and adding 3 hybrids. I'm sold on fitting clubs to your swing now.
That’s awesome!
Thank you Paige. I watch a lot of videos about fitting and later this year I am going for my first ever fitting. However, as a mid to high handicap player who can only get out once a week I've always wanted to get fitted instead of just buying second hand clubs.
This was great for me to see. I went to a PGA store & asked to be fitted for clubs & I was taken through a process of trying clubs but nothing like this. I bought a great set of Taylor Made Stealth's but I still find myself compensatig with certain clubs especially the driver! I wish I could go through this process with my current clubs (I never tried Mizunos, shame) to see if there is a better fit. Thanks for the education. I will visit the Club Champion store in Charlotte!
I just saw that there's a new Club Champion around 2 hours away from me, up here in Canada (actually just a few blocks from where I grew up in Calgary). I will definitely have to pay them a visit next time I'm in town. Thanks for that demonstration!
Loved the video, I'm playing with 15-20-year-old irons and a mish mash of hybrids some with steel shafts some with graphite. I will be 60 this year and never have had a fitting. I really need to do it and get what would probably be my last set of clubs before I retire. Love your video's keep the great work. I'm glad you had a chance to do a video with Bryson and clear the air, and yes, he's not a good caddy lol.
Thanks Paige for the content showing how a high handicapper can benefit from a fitting. I have never been fit because I wondered which "me" would show up for the fitting, the "hit a few good shots in a round" guy, or the "nothing goes right during a round" guy.
I like it Page, Josh needed this fitting a lot and the outcome was really great. I saw some fittings on the internet and many people need more a head fitting than a club fitting...keep going
Great Video. Been playing for under 2 years and just started with Edge set. I am working to develop a consistent swing before buying a custom set. This video does a great job of setting expectations for this experience. Would have liked to see a little more detail about the final bill, doing this in stages. Can you do a fitting and not buy clubs etc.. Thank you
Appreciate your invite beautiful🏌🏼♀! Happy New Year,🤘🏼!
Great content, love seeing these types of videos. Love to see a follow-up video where you give him a few lessons.
Paige you're doing the Lord's work, Josh really needs a modern set. I mean, northwesterns? I am currently going through a whole bag fitting in sessions and have to say, I'm really enjoying the process.
Was a TM guy all my life. Went to a fitting and hit P790's the furthest but the Srixons felt way better and were more accurate. Ended up with a ZX5/ZX7 combo set and I couldn't be happier!
Same here. I walked out with t150 2023s.
Same here, l went in looking for Titelist T200's and came out with Srixons Z Forged MKII's love em.
Not a big fan of Club Champion. I had a terrible experience with one of their locations in Winston Salem, NC. Not sure if it’s the site or the company but this location was only concerned about revenue and refused to cancel an order for grips that had not delivered and had no expected delivery dates. Wasn’t a custom set of irons, just plain grips and they refused to help me out.
I need to get fit because I had a quadruple bypass a few years back and my swing is very different now. I never really got fit before, but used to play and score pretty well. Now I struggle to break 90 and have only once in the last two years broken 80. I need to be more consistent.
Pretty cool you took time to help a keen golfer out. Hope you threw in a pair of them cracking kicks you were wearing😊. I have t been fit in a few years so if your ever in Australia I’d be keen🤙🏽
Paige, great insight on how getting fitted will suit someone's individual necessities in building the whole golf bag. You should do a WITB of 2024, if any changes are made since you last filmed with Ian on the Club Champion channel. Have a great golfing year in 2024!
As a fellow lefty, club choices are tough, manufacturers don't make the same skews for lefties as they do righties, so getting fit is the best option for me, it just hasn't happen yet so I would be happy to get fit for an upcoming video. Definitely overdue regardless for new clubs.
Great Show Darling. Nice to help Josh "Find His Game" with good equipment.
Great video, and nice to see an obvious change. Also appreciated getting a ballpark estimate of the cost of doing this type of fitting/club selection. Given that I haven't had the time or money to even play in the last 10 years, this is not likely a process I would go through to get started again, but maybe one day before I'm gone. LOL! HAPPY NEW YEAR Paige!
That actually happened to me as I was really excited to hit the Srixon new irons and after about 5 swings I just said I cannot hit these irons and ended up getting the JPX 923 HM and just love these with the lightweight shafts.
I'm your huckleberry if you're ever in Indiana and need a Hoosier to fit clubs to ;) Have a hodge-podge set of clubs from 2010ish-2022 (none of which were fit to me; mostly from early college days in 2010ish). Currently handicap around 20, and could definitely benefit from the confidence of knowing how each club is gapped and that they fit me correctly.
Love the content! Looking to make this the year that I finally get fit/get a proper set of clubs :)
Great advise. Looks it could really help my game
Nice video Paige I knew a guy many years ago who had a brand new Ping golf set.At the end of one of his rounds he left his bag,buggy and clubs outside the clubhouse as he wanted to have a drink.When he returned his golf set was stolen. He recently bought a racehorse but was struggling to find a name for it.He named it Dapingsaregone after his stolen golf clubs.
I have upgraded my irons and Driver over the past 2 years so I am looking to move on to Fairway wood, wedges and putter. Wedges would be priority to help my gapping issues.
In my pretty broad experience playing golf, golfers with the most 'ragtag' seemingly mixed up set of clubs that look like they were purchased at a garage sale, they were the hardest players to beat. Those where everything sparkled and matched, were generally high handicap players and easy pickings.
Swingweight, length, lie, shaft flex and loft...don't dispair newbies, not that hard. Most production clubs can be adjusted to optimize your game.
Happy New Year.
if i was scratch with any old bag of shit i would just go with it, but you cant blame us boggie golfers for trying to get our bag to give us the best help it can.
Northwestern's were on my wish-list when I was playing the Little Cougar brand. Passed on them when Ping Eye 2s hit the market, which I still play today. Loooooove winning $$ from my friends using 1986 technology :) Oh yeah, Burner Bubble and a T.M. Tour Spoon complete the set. I'm almost convinced that I should upgrade soon.
Nice work getting him into the fitting bay. Good luck to him!!
Impeccable timing Paige. I am starting my fitting this week at 2nd Swing. Thank you!
-Max
Getting back to golf after a long time off. Irons are about 12-15 years old and driver/fw woods over 20 years. Did recently get fit for 2 wedges and putter but really need to upgrade everything.
I appreciate the video. But the main difference in the distance is the less loft in the irons. The i525 are great but a 7i is 30.5 degrees. The clubs he had was probably closer to standard 35… that’s a whole club difference.
Awesome video! I have had this question forever whether I should spend money on a fitting or lessons as I shoot around 90. I am leaning towards a fitting but for that $$ there's no way! There are enough videos out there to figure my swing out, but unfortunately, I will have to make my swing fit my clubs: (. Maybe one day I'll pull the trigger and just get fit! Great video and very informative! Awesome seeing you help out a stranger! Keep up the good work!
Paige, I really enjoyed the informational video about getting fitted for a full set of golf clubs.
My regular golfing group which consists of 16-20 players, 2 to 3 times a week. We kid each other about the cost of golf equipment. We will say are we crazy to spent $500. on a Driver just to win a $2.00 bet? And, I think you know the answer. I personally don't have confidence, that even with all of today's technology, that spending $3,000. to $5000. on custom golf clubs would improve my golf score. You know if you have question about the IRS or Social Security and you talk with 5 different agents or clerks you get a different answer each time. I may be wrong but I don't see a clear and correct method to be custom fitted for golf clubs. From my experience, it is subjective to the fitter and the brand of golf clubs he pushes.
I hit a few drivers today with my PGA teacher and got a Mizuno, tried a few shafts out and a few different heads, including the Titleist I had with different shafts. Need to get irons, got rocket bladez tour that are nice but getting older, they do work tho great still and a good fit for me. Wedges are vokley sm6 sm7. Cameron putter
So not a horrible bag overall but could be upgraded a bit, I shoot around the same as Josh in the video, sometimes a few more pars, getting better lol 90/85 best was 80
still playing a 99 USD set which brought me down to an 18 HCP.
After playing for 30 years and buying many sets of clubs, most fitted, id suggest buying a standard basic set and then having many lessons. Good clubs will not create a repetitive swing. Fit better clubs when you get sub 15 handicap.
I'd love to see how his golf game has changed since then. Getting fitted for custom clubs is on MY list for 2024.
That was great to see the process. It's a dream of mine to one day get professionally fit for a whole set!!
Had my fitting on the 26th. Got t150s. Expected ship date is feb 7. My oh my is titleist selling irons right now.
I need to stop into a golf champion and actually get fitted for clubs. I've never been fitted and I'm looking to take my game to the next level.
No camels were harmed during filming
Just picked up my new Ping G430 Max from Club Champion today. What a wonderful experience all the way around!! Next pick up will be irons.
That's great to hear!
I need new clubs because I can't hit my driver. I've recovered from a torn rotator cuff and during that time lost more weight and got stronger and I don't think my current clubs fit me any more. ALso, love you Paige. bring back the PaR Podcast.
Would love to get fitted as I am a senior golfer now and not quite as athletic as I once was. Still love to golf and enjoy the idea of getting fitted.
Looks like an excellent service, I could do with this! I think however a beginner would be better off working on their swing first before launching into quite an expensive option.
was always curious of the process. thanks
Can you go into a fitting with them knowing you have no intention of buying clubs? I’m 6’7” and currently are using Ping G Series that I picked up used and used the Ping color chart and their online fitting app to have the adjusted by Ping directly. I’m fine paying whatever the base fitting fee is but would feel like the person fitting me wouldn’t be to helpful knowing he wasn’t getting a commission off of me.
I would give them a call and ask about your specific situation! Generally, you aren't required to make an equipment purchase and would just pay a fitting fee, which is different depending on what you want to get fit for. I've heard from lots of people that they have never felt pressured to make a purchase.
Sooo, am I wrong for preferring this channel over an actual tournament? Golf has truly come a long long way, and it's a beautiful thing.
20 yards because the lofts are more powerful on his new clubs 👍
Great video, it's really refreshing to see a fitting with a true high handicapper. By the way, you look great in that navy blue color.
At 6'7" 250 lbs. custom fit / built clubs are not just an option but a necessity. There are a few in the Chicagoland area so I'll have to consider them next set. Question? Do they have a trade in program? I have Callaway top line gear right now
I have had numerous injuries from my job still enjoy the game but could definitely benefit to help have clubs adapt to my limitations
North western is a brand from Kmart When they were open, 7 iron was the first club I had and that’s where I got it
Big fan of a couple of things on this video!
Got my whole bag fitted. All brand new mizuno from top to bottom
Not a fan of this company due to bad run-ins with them in the past, but I loved the video and the concept. The guy says the clubs they provide are “custom built”. Not true. They are custom fit/assembled from branded parts. They can only give you branded parts they are supplied with, which is another limit. True Custom made/built clubs are a whole different level of custom. In addition, I had my clubs custom assembled without the additional premium quoted in this video.
Can't wait to get fitted myself. Thanks Paige!
Wow ... Josh hits from the right side of the ball (like me)!
I have a March 2nd appointment with Club Champion. I would prefer to be fit and to play with a pro. Like if Paige took Josh to play. Their insight helps so much. Not lessons sou much, but how to utilize clubs on the course. Strategy or what have you. Josh would clearly benefit from this as far as how to move around a course in work related golf outings and so on. I need a pro. My coach has never done this with me.
I also don’t care for the attitude of some of the comments. She is pretty but it doesn’t open the door for the awful things Ive read. Maybe I am sensitive as a dad of 25 year old twin daughter that are equally beautiful.
Nice of you to do this for someone. Have a day!
How lucky is Josh, advice from Paige and Club Champion.
I don’t know how he could concentrate with Paige being in his presence, I wouldn’t be able to hit the ball all
You can just pay for the fitting then go online and order the stuff the fit you for and save yourself $3000. Also fitting a guy with that swing into one of the hardest to hit drivers is crazy. I went to club champion and got fit. I had a horrible experience. The guys just were trying to sale sale sale. It was like going to a car lot. I really wanted a good experience instead I got fit by a used car salesman.
I sure as heck couldn’t concentrate on golf with Paige standing behind me looking so fine.
Paige your fittings are free. No bashing but everyone can’t afford it at those prices. Senior golf on fixed income. Love your videos. I have managed to learn a lot by working PT at my local golf store. Fitting is important.
Happy new Year Paige and everyone here in the channel................... :) bye
Paige your such a shiny star 💫 in the industry keep up the good work
Paige thank you so much for this video. I’ve been wondering what Club Champion fitting would be like. I have tried to get fitted for clubs 3 times at well known golf chain stores in the past. However they just didn’t work for me, although I really bet I should be fitted (I’m only 5’3”).
my dad had some north westerns as well lol. I feel like he bought that from Sports Authority. And he's a lefty too lol
If this dude shoots in the 90s then I'm a blue haired unicorn.
Informative video. When I've bought clubs at a Golf Galaxy, the fitting was only superficial. A more in depth fitting could have had different results.
Club fitting is the way to go looking good Paige all the best.💕
I ceertainly need to go through the fitting process i had two very serious injuries so i have no idea if I’m even close to the right combos with my current set up. I haven’t played serious for 6+ years and my gamers are from the 2000s. Add in the broken limbs and missing thumb and I’m positive I need massive tweaks to my setup to shave strokes
The biggest issue I've had with fitting (from a proper fitter) is cost. Add another $3-500 on top of the $1500-$2k and it adds up. Worth it in the long run so long as your swing doesn't change, but a risk for those of us who can only get out a few times a year
If you love golf and want to improve, getting fit is a must. If you only play 2 to 3 times a year, stick with hand me downs or garage sale clubs.
They have promos or had them 100 for a full bag.
@@nicholasthorstensen6213 not sure about US, in Canada, what they advertise is $500 for a full bag.
I have some Northwesterns passed down from my grandpa!
Morning Paige. I trust you had a great Christmas!
You’re looking awesome as usual. Another great video. Thanks!
Looking forward to your videos in 2024.
Great Vid. I bet with a short coaching session before fitting could of helped. 😊
You rock! What are your thoughts on Puring? Can you do a video to explain and maybe do a comparison?
Would love a chance for a full bag fitting. A 6 handicap with not a precise fitting such as this video demonstrates. Hit em straight.
Very informative. Are there follow-up days after using a new set? Revisions?
Thank you for the video Ms. Paige. I enjoyed the process and explanation for fitted clubs.
I just back into golf 2023. I’ve had my iron set and putter for about 15 years now. I spent some $$$ in 2023 upgrading my driver and woods. I hit the 50 years young club as well, lol… there’s a Club Campion in Colorado Springs where I recently moved.
My question, what is the longevity for fitted clubs? How long will my $$$$ fitted clubs last??? Thank you again for any advice or insight. It’s much appreciated!
Blessings…
They should last forever, or until you decide you want a change! You can also take them back into Club Champion for a touch up if your swing happens to change a little.
@@PaigeSpiranac thank you again…
Happy New Year!
LEFT HANDERS RULE!!!!!!!! Go lefty
I need new clubs to beat you next year or only playing a round together with you. 😘😅 But i am not sure if i can do it without getting fit professionally… ☺️🤔
