The information on these forms will be enough to enable me to make you a set of Custom made Clubs. The lie of the clubs will be close or perfect, but depending on your swing the lie may need a minor adjustment.

A. Like buying any golf clubs, you would need to purchase your golf bag. I can order and you with a golf bag, but that is like sending someone to buy your new luggage.

As for a good golf bag, there again it is like buying good luggage, you generally get what you pay for.

Q. How long will it take you to make me a set of Custom Made Clubs?
A. It depends if I have the proper shafts, grips and a set of iron heads, wedge heads, hybrid or fairway wood heads, driver head and a putter head, in stock, that are appropriate for you. I have in stock approx. 25 – 30 iron sets, and a good selection of wedge head sets, hybrids head sets, driver heads and putter heads as well as 300 plus shafts and a good selection of grips. If I have to order components that usually takes 2-4 weeks, depending on the supplier and delivery method.
