TaylorMade Canada announced the opening of Canada’s TaylorMade Performance Centres (TMPC), which serves as TaylorMade Canada’s home base for custom fitting across Western Canada.
Under the skilled eye of TaylorMade Master Fitters Kris Farley, Mike Langin and Andy Johnson, golfers of all abilities will now have access to test and be fit for the entire line-up of TaylorMade’s vast range of custom and stock options. Set up in a weather sheltered environment, each TaylorMade Performance Centre features TaylorMade proprietary fitting software on FlightScope’s X2 Launch Monitor to analyze ball-flight and club-dynamics.
“We can dial in any club in the bag, from drivers and fairways to rescues, irons, wedges, the putter and golf ball,” explained Andy Johnson, a native of Australia, and past player on the PGA Tour Canada and Australasian Tours who has overseen TMPC operations in Vancouver for the past year. “Providing the player with data such as spin rates, launch angles, swing speed, ball speed, we are able to illustrate the ideal set-up for a player’s bag and recommend the best fit for a player’s game. At the end of the fitting process, clients will be provided with customized specifications from which they can place an order for their new set and a point of contact to follow up with any fitting related inquiries.”“TaylorMade Performance Centres slot into the upper echelon of our Tuned Performance franchise, and help consumers to access our staff of Master Fitters in a way that is convenient for the golfer,” said Cameron Jacobs, Manager, Custom Fitting for TaylorMade Canada. “One of the challenges we’ve seen in Canada is that players can’t always attend a demo or fitting day at their club, nor can our reps transport the full-line of custom options from event to event. Setting up shop at a fixed TMPC location and offering high-level fitting to all golfers is not a fad, it’s the way we see the business evolving to suit the needs of today’s consumer. We couldn’t ask for better venues in Calgary, Vernon, Kelowna and Vancouver – they’ve been phenomenal hosts – this is our stake in the ground for Western Canada.”
The TaylorMade Performance Centre serves as a hub for pro-shops and golf retailers from all corners of Alberta, British Columbia and beyond. Appointments for fitting sessions at the TaylorMade Performance Center may be booked by PGA of Canada Professionals, TaylorMade Authorized retailers on behalf of their clients, or golfers may book directly with TaylorMade at each location. Upon completion of a fitting session, the Master Fitter will be able to assist consumers in placing an order and ensuring quick delivery for any custom product built at the head office in Carlsbad, California.
