Nation’s #1 Club Fitter Eclipses 80 Stores In Q1

Willowbrook, IL — Custom club fitter Club Champion announces the opening of three new fitting studios this month, located in Williamsville, NY; Myrtle Beach, SC; and Tucson, AZ. The brand now has 82 stores nationwide and is looking to continue their expansion later this spring.

Club Champion fits, sells and builds custom golf clubs using brands like Callaway, TaylorMade, Titleist, Cobra, Fujikura, Golf Pride and many more. The company delivers a Tour-quality fitting that produces longer, more accurate shots with a nearly 100% satisfaction rate for golfers of any ability level. Their highly trained master fitters use a unique coupling system used to combine any head and shaft together, so golfers hit the precise combination to be custom built for them. They are the only fitter in the country to offer over 50,000 interchangeable head and shaft combinations on-site, at all locations.

The new studios feature two indoor hitting bays with TrackMan launch monitors for analyzing performance, a SAM PuttLab system to find the perfect putter, and a build shop for repairing and assembling golf clubs by hand. The roughly 3,000 square foot spaces also include a demo matrix to display the head and shaft options that make up their 50,000+ hittable combinations.

For a limited time, the new stores will celebrate their grand openings by offering 50% off fitting fees with an equipment purchase of $500 or more. Putter fittings are the only exception; they are 50% off with the purchase of a new putter.
