I have an iron and driver fitting scheduled to start this Saturday. Diving into this for the past several months anticipating this fitting I have been reading a ton here, watching umpteen videos, talking to a couple friends, including some here, checking out all of the manufacturer websites it has been a bit overwhelming. Pretty sure I have read every single thread on THP on the subject. A couple guys I met who are very low single digit cap players recommended the same fitting shop to me here in CT. They couldn't say enough good things about the guys there. They are brand agnostic and truly invested in helping players improve their games according to them. Talking to him on the phone last week he said we will start with irons this saturday and to driver and fairways next week. He asked me if there was a brand I preferred. I was reluctant for a second to answer but I did tell him I had my eyes on the Mizuno 923s and he had nothing but good things to say about them.
My first question is however, is it in my best interest to just solely rely on him for suggestions and maybe ask him....recommended by Junkyard...to not even tell me what club he gives me and hit them blindly?
Is it possible to spend an hour+ and not find what will work best for me?
Is $2500 enough of a starting budget for irons and driver? I am really hoping to get fit into a TSR driver in addition to the mizunos.
Forgive me that may have bounced around a bit as I am terrible at communicating. Just looking to get the most out of this fitting and would love any advice from you guys. My current irons are 1998 tommy armour 845s and driver is from 2012-13 that was given to me and I absolutely know is the completely wrong shaft for me. I know my current gamers are holding back my game.
