NORTH HOLLYWOOD, CA – January 17, 2006 – KZG, the #1 Custom ProLine, has begun accepting applications for the World’s Top 100 Club Fitters Awards, to be announced in February 2006.
"When it comes to custom fitting golf clubs, there are pretenders who take a few static measurements, or ask how a handful of demo clubs feel before making a recommendation, and then there are the contenders," says Jennifer King, President of KZG. "The contenders are skilled professionals who are passionate about equipment and equipment design. They understand how valuable launch monitor data – such as launch angle, spin rate and ball speed – is to the fitting process. These professionals care about their customers and want to help them improve. KZG’s dedication to custom fitting makes it natural for us to want to honor those at the top of this very important profession."
The Top 100 Club Fitters Awards is just one of several ways KZG is working to raise awareness of the importance of true custom-fitting when it comes to golf equipment. "Recent polls claim 65% of all golfers believe they have been custom-fit, which is a very misleading number," says King. "If you weed out the pretenders, it’s likely less than 10% of all golfers have had the real experience."
A panel of industry experts will determine the specific criteria by which the Top 100 Club Fitters Awards will be judged. In general, applicants must demonstrate knowledge, skill, and commitment to club fitting, business savvy, integrity, and passion not only for the profession, but the game of golf itself. "Seeing the big picture is really at the core of what we’re doing," says King. "When golfers play with clubs that fit, they play better and enjoy the game. When they enjoy the game, they play more, and the game grows. In the end, it’s a win-win for everyone who loves golf."
With over 2000 dealers worldwide dedicated to proper clubfitting, KZG truly is the #1 Custom ProLine. Their comprehensive selection of premium golf equipment includes the finest drivers, fairway and utility woods, forged and cast irons and wedges, CNC-milled putters, and a wide variety of accessories and apparel.
