Due to the high demand for The Golfworks Schools, and because there are many people that lack the time to commit to a full week school, we have designed a rewarding two-day course on Golf Club Fitting and Assembly. This two day school is an introduction to Golf Club Fitting and Assembly. It is designed for the beginner and briefly covers all topics involved with golf club fitting and assembly. Each student will go through the fitting process and then build three golf clubs to their evaluation results. The procedures for assembling and repairing golf clubs will include everything from a hobbyist building clubs at home to a large volume repair shop. This course discusses theory while being very hands on.

The most comprehensive training program available in clubmaking today. This course has set the standard for complete clubmaking and repair instruction for two decades!This is an intensive four day program designed to cover the design principles of golf club components, modern golf club fitting and assembly techniques of custom club making.
This presentation involves lectures, textbook, team exercises, practical demonstrations, personal swing testing and club fitting. Each student will go through a complete personal fitting.

BACKGROUND
The GolfWorks has been conducting professional golf club repair, fitting and assembly schools since 1982. We have hosted thousands of students from all over the world. Unlike other companies who teach club repair and actually repair very few clubs, we repair thousands of clubs yearly. Among the people who have placed faith in us to provide them with the knowledge of golf club repair, fitting and assembly currently work for companies like Callaway, Titleist, Nike, True Temper, UST, Golf Galaxy, Dick's Sporting Goods and more.
Our premier technical experts provide you with the most comprehensive clubmaking instruction offered in the industry today. Our classes qualify for the PGA and LPGA Continuing Education Programs. The academys instruction manuals are written by Ralph Maltby, who is the leading authority on club design, fitting, and repair.
Hundreds of golf professionals from the PGA of America have also attended our schools. Why? Because the teaching manuals used in our schools are also used by the PGA of America in their seminars and workshops. In fact, many golf professionals choose to supplement their PGA-based education by visiting the source of golf club repair, fitting and assembly.
