    Hello,

    Early next year I will be turning 40 and  to celebrate this milestone birthday I'm looking to visit the Titleist facilty in Carlsbad, CA for a fitting.  Where can I find pricing for something like this?   I need to give it to my wife now so there is no misunderstanding of what I want for my birthday :)

    1. Are there any packages offered at this time?  For example I read somewhere in past there was an Iron Package or a Driver Package for those not interested in the 14 club packages..
    2. I’m a left-handed golfer; will that be an issue for a custom fitting?  Will I have an opportunity to try different equipment just like a right-handed golfer?
    3. How far in advance do we need to schedule our appointments?
    4. What is your cancellation policy?
    5. What happens if there is bad weather during our visit, will we have to reschedule or will the fitting be done in an alternate location (indoors)?

    Thank you in advance for your time.  I look forward to hearing from you.

    Regards,

    Garrett

    TT Concierge will need to contact you about the use of the Carlsbad facility. I used, quite by accident, an Advance Fitting Center, and they had more shaft options in stock than a big box cart/bag next to all the other vendors equipment. The AFC had the 2012 stock shafts in December and the big box did not have them yet at the end of February. At the time of a driver fitting they didn't have the 12 degree, yet, but later for 912 AP1/AP2 and 910F/H they had all the heads. Only 2 makers come close to supplying full lines to left-handed golfers, whereas the more off the rack vendors only ever have 2 driver/fairway/hybrid lofts and not all iron sets come left-handed. I never thought I'd even look at Titleist until I found out how limited my options were off the rack elsewhere. The quality was an after thought to getting what will work for me. Tom Wishon is a big advocate of custom fitting, but only offers a very limited number of custom heads for lefties. ...Thank you Titleist.

    Garrett,

    If you decide not to make the trip out west, I am up in Chicago.  I have all the left handed heads available and about 4 guys from St. Louis have come up already this year.

    Thank you very much.   I have actually played the Glen Club the week before a Nationwide Tour event to celebrate my birthday a few years ago in May  and that was a wonderful experience.   I will see you soon
