Ranked as the leader in custom fitting

in a recent consumer survey by a 3-to-1 margin, PING has trained thousands of fitters in order to bring the benefits of custom fitting to all golfers.

Factory-trained PING club fitters

spend three days at our plant in Phoenix, learning about PING products, how they are manufactured, and how to fit golf clubs "Karsten's way." The result is that every authorized PING Fitting Cart Account is staffed with knowledgeable, factory-trained personnel who are able to custom-fit a golfer for a complete set of PING golf clubs.

Every year, PING selects a fitter

whose commitment to club-fitting and service deserves special recognition. Selected from 65 regional finalists, the PING National Fitter of the Year for 2006 was Massengale Golf Academy in Spring, Texas.

“Under the guidance of Chris Mile and Casey Baker, the staff at Miles of Golf has earned a national reputation for its approach to custom fitting,” said John A. Solheim, PING Chairman & CEO. “They’ve invested in the training and technology required to bring golfers the most comprehensive fittings available. Their team embraces the value of custom fitting and its effect on lowering scores and leading to more enjoyment of the game. They are leaders in every respect as they provide the expertise and service that makes us proud to honor them as PING’s National Fitter of the Year.”

Along with the expertise of the 10 club fitting specialists on staff, led by Director of Fitting Brent Norton, Baker credits PING’s commitment to innovation and quality for making the relationship so successful.

“PING provides us the tools to fit every club in the bag, from driver through the putter,” said Baker, the facility’s general manager. “We know every PING® club we fit is going to perform for the golfer. That helps further validate the custom-fitting process in the golfer’s mind and leads to loyal customers for our shop and PING.”
