Best range promotion:

In the summer of 2020 we tried for the first time a ‘Vokey Wedge Experience’. The experience was limited to the first 12 members to register and was centered around the topic “Do your wedges fit your game?” The event sold out. Titleist supplied their regional fitter to do gap distance fitting, my Lead Assistant was in the green side bunker to fit for bounce and I (Head Professional) wasgreen side to fit for short shot turf interaction. The clinic was 90 minutes long priced at $170 and included one new vokey wedge. The ‘Vokey Wedge Experience’ was a huge success leading to 23 total wedges sold! We offered similar experience events with other vendors as well.

Special programs:
