Iron fitting

Club Fitting

Anthony Schweppe is incredible! His knowledge, and ability to pass on his knowledge on, is second to none. With his tips and fitting I gained 25 yards on my 7-iron. If I had known this experience would have been so powerful, I would have scheduled it years ago. I’m confident that I will go from my current 13 handicap to at least and 8 handicap. I have never been so excited to play the game! Thank you Anthony!!

Club Fitting

I just completed my full bag club fitting with Ricky in March 2021. I hit all the irons blind (without looking at the manufacturer) because I was looking to get the best numbers with my swing. What an awesome experience! Ricky is certainly passionate about the game and enjoys working with the numbers as it relates to the club fitting process. As an accomplished golfer myself and someone who is very particular about finding the right fit, I'm certain that I'll be back to Sittler Golf for any of my golf equipment needs.

had iron fitting

highly recommend Sittlers,

After 50 years of playing golf, I finally decided to get properly fitted with a set of irons. I knew of Sittlers reputation, and the one and a half hour drive there, was well worth my time. Ricky was very patient with this old man, and helped me to correct things I have been doing wrong for years! He was knowledgeable, and made the fitting a fun experience. I am looking forward to getting out there and playing golf with my new set of irons! Thank you Sittlers, and especially Ricky!

Fantastic experience

Full bag fitting with Rick. Rick took such a comprehensive look at my swing and had me hit so many shaft/head combos that we didn't finish the full bag in the time allotted. Rick didn't mind and will schedule another session to complete the rest. They want to do it right at Sittler golf. Rick set me up with extra stiff shafts in Mizuno MP20s. I had some anxiety about X stiff but Rick's thoughtful explanations (even over the phone after the fitting), put it all into great perspective for me. The numbers don't lie. Good news is I trust this family so much that if the order doesn't come in to exact specs, or I don't see similar numbers as I did with the fitting, I know they'll do what they can to work with me to get it right. They are all about serving the customer. As good as Rick and Patty are as operators of this golf center, they're even better people. Can't wait to receive the clubs and get back to finish the rest of the bag (may add to the review then). Do yourself and your game a favor, get fit at Sittler Golf Center.

Outstanding experience!

Iron fitting with Rick

Club Fitting

I was not hitting my driver very well for sometime, it was time I get fitted for a new driver. So I called SITTLER GOLF. I set up an appointment with Ricky and after hitting four or five different drivers with different shafts I decided on the Wilson Launch Pad. I am hitting straighter and longer drives and most of all I'm hitting more fairways. Then I decided to have Ricky fit me with some Irons. I didn't care about brand so we decided on the Taylormade Irons. I'm hitting more greens and scoring better. I recommend SITTLER GOLF for all your golfing needs. Thank you Ricky for all your patience and expertise.

Review

I would highly recommend Sittler for your club fitting. Ricky took the time to listen to my concerns, my game, and where I wanted to be. I was open to any brand that would help. After several hours of trying many head and shaft combinations the final selection of clubs restored confidence in every club. Now I am playing more, and that confidence has led to more fun and incredible results with these clubs.

A Whole New Bag....

After 23 years, my clubs were shot. A total loyalist to a certain brand and many years of good scoring, I felt like I’d jump right into the 2020 version of that brand. However, I was told at the time I set up my Custom Full BAG fitting at Sittler Golf to be open minded about my session. And I was. But even if I wasn’t, the fitting process would have AND DID provide all the answers. After 4 + hours of a completely thorough and entertaining session with Ricky Kline, I absolutely know where I am headed and why it is, in terms of my new equipment, the PinG i500’s are perfect for me. “The numbers don’t lie”, says Ricky, who has a very engaging and unique style where he basically has you start asking your own questions and finding your own answers to what you feel is best for you; of course, he smiles and agrees in excitement as he’s confident he’s done another fine job of determining through trial and error how to get the best equipment for you in your hands to play better golf. Kudos to his professionalism and patience in taking all the time that’s necessary to fit you for the best possible bag set-up. I highly recommend and already have, the Comprehensive FuLL BaG fitting at Sittler Golf with Ricky. Worth the travel if you are not in the immediate area. A ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Experience❗️

Iron Fitting

Masters of Their Craft

I was hesitant to invest the time and money into a full bag club fitting thinking how much could it really improve my game. After spending 3 hours with Scott I became a believer. Scott is a true professional that is passionate about what he does and it shows. At no time did I ever feel like a product was being pushed or like I was being sold something. Scott took the time to listen, observed and ultimately paired me with a club head and shaft that drastically improved my swing, consistency, and distance. This has probably been one of the best investments I've made into my game.

Putter Fitting with Ryan

Very happy I visited Sittler...

I went to Ricky for a club fitting, specifically my driver. After about an hour an half reviewing my swing, ball flight and speed, using several different clubs and shafts, Ricky advised me to stay with my same club but switching to a new (and heavier) shaft. I have now added between 10 - 30 yards per drive. I am EXTREMELY satisfied with Sittler Golf and grateful to Ricky for his professionalism and honesty as he put me into a new shaft and not some expensive new driver.

Driver lesson

I met with Rick to see if he could correct my slice off my driver. We spent approx 30 minutes with Rick taking a video of my swing and making a couple of suggestions. I have been scoring in the mid 90’s over the past several years. The past 2 weeks I shot an 87 and 86, primarily because I kept my drive in play, hitting fairways more consistently and being able to hit shorter irons on my second shot. I am extremely pleased with the time spent with Rick and recommend him highly.

Great experience at Sittler Golf today

I had an exceptional experience with Ricky at Sittler Golf today. What a knowledgeable young man. We went through my whole bag his expertise is second to none. He is not satisfied until he can come up with the best combination of club make,shaft type ,lie angle and overall information for you. I never felt rushed or pushed to purchase anything. I would recommend Ricky to anyone that is looking to get properly fitted for golf clubs.

Fitted for driver

Full Bag Fitting

After a few years of consideration and a thorough investigation of potential club fitting places, I decided on Sittlers. I had a full bag fitting with Ricky today and couldn't have been more pleased. His approach and straightforward comments made me immediately comfortable that I was at the right place. He didn't try to "up-sell" me into a set of irons/hybrids that wouldn't benefit my game any more than what's needed. If you're looking for a family owned golf shop that delivers excellent customer service Sittlers is the place!

A great experience

After 40 years of playing golf, buying clubs off the rack or on eBay, I finally decided to get a customized fitting and get the driver that was right for me. Being a lefty I was somewhat at a disadvantage as to choices. Several of my friends had worked with Rick Kline at Sittlers so I decided to give it a shot. After working with Rick for several minutes I knew that I had made the right decision. Rick spent an hour with me ascertaining which shaft was right for me and then trying various drivers with that same shaft to decide which one was best for me. It came down to Ping or Cobra but I went with the F9 Cobra since it seemed to be more consistent. In all of this Rick was very patient, understanding and helpful with little hints here and there. I'd rate my experience a 10 out of 10. Last night I got a phone call that the new driver is ready to be picked up. I can't wait to get to the next golf course and "humble" it. Thanks Rick for your perseverance and wisdom.

Finally getting it done right

I’m a very high handicapper and had been wondering for a while if it could have something to do with my clubs (not entirely, of course, but at least a contributor). I set up an appointment at the Kutztown location, and went in mid-March for my first club fitting. While I wasn’t really sure what to expect, the other reviews had me pretty hopeful for a positive outcome. I was very pleased with the entire process from start to finish as Rick Kline and the boys at the shop took great care of me over the course of the two hour fitting. All of the results were data-driven and very clear as Rick took me through the process from selecting the ideal shafts to trying out the best of the best clubs available, including the latest from Callaway, Wilson, Ping, Taylormade, Mizuno, and Cobra. I ended up trading in an older set (Cobra Baffler XLs and an F6 driver) toward a full set of Cobra F9 One-length irons and an F9 Speedback Driver. Rick’s analysis found that I needed a significant adjustment to stock settings (1/2 inch longer and 2 degrees up on the irons, big difference...). I’m currently waiting excitedly for delivery in a couple weeks and am looking forward to chasing golf balls with the new set! Thanks to everyone at Sittler for a fantastic experience! I’ll definitely be back for any future purchases; they’re real professionals! Cheers, Mike

Outstanding place to buy your clubs!

I had a great experience with Sittler Golf. After many years of buying clubs off of the rack, I finally was fitted and they did a fantastic job. Ricky Kline knows his stuff and takes all the time you need to feel comfortable with what you are selecting. He knows what you need and gives you the opportunity to be sure you are in agreement with his choices. It was a very good session working with him and I am ecstatic with the results of his assistance. Don't go anywhere else to buy clubs. Sure, they might be less expensive elsewhere but Sittler golf is worth the price and experience. I am very satisfied!

Driver Fitting

I scheduled a driver fitting with Rick after a recommendation from a friend. I was not disappointed with my experience! For someone as experienced in the industry as Rick, I was concerned he would provide me with the driver of the month. I was wrong!! Rick took the time with me, listened to what I had to say and what I was looking for, and guided me to the best option. It wasn't the most expensive driver but it was one that fit my swing and felt good in my hands. During this experience, I have had the opportunity to meet the Kline family and feel at home going into either store. With the new location in Sinking Spring, Sittler will be my preferred golf shop going forward! Thank your Rick!

An investment in MY golf game.

I love the game of golf. I am always trying improve my game. I practice, play and work on my swing. Now I made the decision to have a club fitting & invest in new clubs. I enjoyed my fitting with Ricky, I tried many different brand of clubs, learned why I hit such a low ball and the reason my golf ball likes to fly right. He figured out how my swing and the clubs he recommended for me will work to help me improve my game. Looking forward to a more improved game of golf this season. Thanks Ricky.

Great experience!

Just had my first club fitting with Ricky. I drove a bit to get here because I had read good things, and it was worth it. Ricky looks young (and in comparison to me, he is), but that doesn't mean he isn't chalk full of knowledge. I could tell very quickly that I was in good hands. The fitting was very comprehensive, and he's so good at what he does, he knew how I was going to miss before it happened. Ricky is also incredibly down to earth and friendly (as was everyone else I interacted with). If you're looking for a good club fitter who cares about your game and looks out for your best interests - look no farther.

Iron fitting

Awersome Work By Sittlers

Iron fitting

I’ve been a Sittler golf customer for 20 years, and the reason starts with the Kline family. I’ve taken numerous lessons and bought countless clubs for Sittler golf over the years because Rick has the knowledge, the skill and the patience of no one else in the industry. In my opinion, he is the nations #1 clubfitter, and we are blessed to have him in the Lehigh Valley. I’m getting older so I’ve lost some clubhead speed, i don’t get out much, so i needed some extra forgiveness as well. I have decent knowledge of golf equipment and I’ve read great reviews of the new Mizuno JPX 919 hot metal irons. Based on my data, Rick started out with 6 comparable clubs for me and as patient as a saint, he methodically and systematically fitted me into the best new iron for my swing. I cannot thank him enough for everything.

First Golf Lesson in MY Life

I had my first ever golf lesson today and Rick was outstanding. I started playing golf regularly in the middle of the season last year and to call me a "hacker" would be overly generous. Rick started with the fundamentals of grip, stance, ball position, swing, and follow-through. Amazing results immediately. Have to practice now and apply my corrected technique. Thanks, Rick. I'll let you know how it goes.

Golf Fitting for Irons

I had a club fitting for a set of irons with Rick. The selection of irons I had to choose from was impressive. Rick suggested a few changes to my setup before I demoed the irons and he was spot on which resulted in hitting a higher and straighter ball. I liked the xxio irons best and Sittler is one of a few places you can demo them. I was extremely pleased with the fitting and the detailed attention to the selection of the irons tailored to me. I ordered the xxio and can't wait to get them. I golfed today and the girl I golfed with said she saw a difference in how I hit my irons with the few setup changes Rick made. Thank you Rick! I highly recommend you to anyone with even the slightest need for some golf tweaking!

Testimonial #141

Awesome lesson, putter purchase, and atmosphere

I've been here dozens of times in my golfing life (the last 6 years) and have always enjoyed the facilities that are available, but the last two years and especially the last few months have meant a lot. I work for the First Tee of the Lehigh Valley as an assistant coach, and while Sittlers hasn't been my place of work, Rick Kline has always treated me well at meetings and in general. In addition, when I went there to buy a new putter in June, Ryan Rogers was working there and gave very good advice as to what to pick without any pressure whatsoever. I've since taken two lessons with Ryan Rogers and both have been wonderful. He understands what I'm saying, and then within one swing he's immediately able to identify the issue, and provides the correct combination of words visuals to understand how to do it, practice it, etc. This most recent lesson was only scheduled to be 1/2 hour but went 50 minutes, and you could tell that enjoyed doing it and that he cares about the customer improving their game. Top service all around, for players of all skill levels.

Driver Fitting

After 2 years of procrastination I decided to get a driver fitting. By the numbers I have an “off the rack” body so why not use an “off the rack” driver. Turns out I don’t have an “off the rack” swing. I couldn’t be happier with the time and attention I received (including a setup tweak) in getting fitted for a new driver. Having a club suited to my swing took me from high and right to straight or slight draw and consistently long. Ryan was great to work with and I highly recommend the process. I’ve known Rick for 20 years and he has worked with my sons, fitted me with irons, and obviously employs people with like skill, attitude, and approach. There is no substitute for being fitted with the right equipment and these are the right people for the job.

Great lesson

Golf Club Fitting

As a graduation present for my twins sons, I wanted to get them each fitted for a set of irons. We made an appointment at SIttler's and we had a great experience. Each of my sons had one on ones with the pros (Ricky & Ryan) and they systematically worked thru the process to get them set up with the right clubs and made it fun and informational as well. I highly recommend them both if you are looking to get set up with a new set of clubs!!!

You CAN Teach an Old Dog!

At the age of 70 I am learning to play golf for the first time and attended Get Golf Ready I and II, under the expert guidance of Ryan and Ricky. I also had a private lesson with Ryan which was very helpful. I am steadily improving and thoroughly enjoying this new endeavor. I was very nervous and apprehensive about possibly failing and feeling foolish for attempting this at my age. Right from the start, Ryan and Ricky treated me with respect and professionalism, building my confidence, always encouraging me with praise, and helping me to relax and have fun. Thanks to Sittler’s fantastic program and staff, I will be able to play golf with family members and friends who love the sport, and will no longer be left behind, missing the fun.

Professional Fitting

In April I received my first ever professional fitting for a golf set. My experience surpassed all expectations that I had. The young professional fitter, Ricky, was friendly, professional, patient, and passionate for the game of golf. This is a well run family owned business that I would recommend to anyone for all things golf. I waited until now to write my review because I wanted to see how my new clubs performed. Thanks to Ricky, I am now consistently hitting the ball crisp and closer to the pin more than I ever have in my life. Thanks Sittler Golf!

Lesson w ricky

Great club fitting

On May 10, 2018, I had a club fitting with Rick. He worked with m for nearly 2 hours and let me hit a variety of irons until I felt comfortable with them and made up my own mind as to what I felt most comfortable with. Then it was on to Driver and fairway woods, then to hybrids. Rick was there to listen to my comments and make some suggestions, all leading to what I hope to be the best clubs for my swing. Clubs will be picked up on June 1, and I'm also taking a 1/2 hour lesson with Rick at the time. Overall, it was a great experience

Testimonial #127

Amazing Experience

I have nothing but positives to say about my experience on 512/18. Ricky discussed my golf game with me, strengths, weaknesses, etc. RIcky didn't push me towards a specific club/brand, but rather let me hit and decide based on feel, accuracy, and distance. He knew which club(s) would suit me best, and really made an effort to describe what would benefit me. I left more than satisfied knowing I wasn't just a number, but a valued customer that Ricky wanted to help. I encourage any/everyone to get a proper fitting at Sittler Golf!

Want to Gain 20 to 25 yards?

Go to Sittlers for a great fitting, professional advice, and do test drive an XXIO Driver. As for XXIO irons, I’m hitting those 10 to 15 yards farther. Yesterday I picked up all but three of my XXIO clubs and today played Olde Homestead, (yellow tees) back-nine first for a 39 and the front nine—the harder nine—for a one over par 38, lowest score of the year. And I was not putting well! ( Just wait till I get used to these clubs and get my hybrids!) XXIO’s are for seniors or anyone with a swing speed under 90. I’m going to be 80 years old in September and won the Legend’s Division in 2010 at Lehigh Valley Amateur at Green Pond CC and also was District 11 champion back in 1956 from Allentown High School.

clubfitting with Rick

awesome time with Rick for my first ever club fitting. he won't push you towards a certain brand, but lets you hit them and you decide what looks and feels right for you. he was even so kind as to help with a few minor adjustments to help me swing better and make better contact. ran out of time before we got to check putters, but i can take care of that when i go for a lesson which will be in another review. all the staff was very friendly and courteous and very generous with their time and knowledge if i had any questions. thanks for a great morning

Ryan helped me out a day ago to get fit into some Callaway Woods for next year and boy do I feel confident for the 2018 season. He showed me some very helpful data on how my current clubs were behaving and how my new equipment will make my game even better. Go to Sittler's for ANYTHING Golf !!! Rick and his staff will take great care of you and help you with any of their golfing needs p.s. they have mini golf and ice cream

Frustrated?

I've played for 15yrs..a few times a year. Consistently inconsistent would best describe it..always chasing the last shot, trying to do the opposite of the previous ball flight, zero success. Duffs, bullets, outright wiffs..and then 1 beauty..no idea why. My game to a tee. Rick had me fixed up and hitting straight, lofty shots in a matter of minutes. Just had my second lesson, and I'm blown away. I must've hit 30 balls to a target after this 2nd lesson, out on the range..one after the other. I'm extremely excited for this season.. just booked my 3rd lesson in March. Go see Rick. Go. If you love to play, and are having trouble, GO SEE RICK.

Wish I Had Found This Place Sooner!

For the past couple of months I have been going to Golf Galaxy trying to determine what set of irons I should get. I was starting to get frustrated because I didn't know what ones I wanted. The people at Golf Galaxy were nice and helpful but I wanted to talk to someone that truly cared about getting me into the right clubs. I wanted someone to look at my swing, make suggestions, let me try them out and be able to hit them outside on the range. Rick did exactly that and more. He was awesome. Rick truly cared about getting the right club in my hands. I did the Comprehensive Iron Fitting and it was perfect! After I picked out what kind of irons I wanted he helped me get the right lie, grip size, grip type, and shaft. If you want someone who is very professional, knows what they are talking about, and cares about getting you the right set of clubs and not the most expensive set, Rick is the guy for you. I highly suggest going there if you are looking at getting any new clubs. It's worth the price for the investment that you plan to make! I will be going there from now on when I make upgrades to my setup.

If you love golf...

If you love golf, this is the place to go. Whether you are just beginning or have been playing for years, they will be able to help you take your game to the next level. Went in for a club fitting and within in half an hour Rick helped adjust my swing so it was more fluid and consistent. Full staff of great people willing to help you anyway they can and work with your budget the entire way. I live over an hour away and will continue to give them my business for anything golf related.

Outstanding Facility and Service

I was looking to purchase a new set of irons and scheduled a fitting with Ricky. He was very engaged and had a ton of knowledge about which irons would be a fit for me. I was so pleased with the level of service that I not only purchased the irons but purchased a new ping hoofer bag and taylormade syper tour putter here. This is where i will buy all my golf merchandise moving forward.

I just want to say how much I appreciate Rick helping me out with my swing. As a newbie, I had no form and was getting advice from everyone and nothing made sense until I had a lesson with Rick. He even checked on me one day in between his lessons just to tweak my swing. I can't thank you enough. I left Sittler's on Sunday and went home and immediately took my Driver and Pitch Wedge and walked onto the golf course with 3 balls and hit all 3 balls within chipping distance to the green. I think I'm really going to enjoy this game thanks to Rick.

Perfect fit and extra yards

I went to Rick for a lesson and to check out his approach to both teaching and fitting. A "try before you buy." I based my decision on his endorsements and recognition. In fact, I waited until I came back to PA on vacation from my home in Florida, even though there are plenty of pros in my area. I am so glad I waited. Not only did I get the right bag of clubs for my swing, I added 30+ yards to my drive based on his coaching. If you are thinking about buying a new set up clubs go to teaching and fitting professional. It is worth the investment. Don’t make the mistake hundreds make basing decisions on Golf Magazine reviews and friends advice. Get the right set and the coaching you need to enjoy the game more and impress your buddy’s with long, straight drives. I will visit Rick every six months from now on to get the advice I need to continue playing well. Just an FYI – Rick also serves his community by leading the First Tee program. I like doing business with someone who does good things for local kids.

Club Fitting with Ricky

I had the pleasure of going through the comprehensive iron fitting process at Sittler Golf Center. I had never been fit for clubs in the past, so I wasn't really sure what to expect. Ricky did an excellent job of explaining exactly what he was looking for and why during each step of the fitting. He is a true professional in every sense of the word.Also, when they say they have a "fully stocked" pro shop, they're not kidding. Incredible!And finally, every single person I interacted with at Sittler Golf Center was extremely friendly. Getting my clubs fit was an overall excellent experience. I would have no hesitation to make the over 2 hour drive back to Sittler for any of my golfing needs.

Get club fitting at Sittlers Golf

Just had a comprehensive club fitting with Rick the other day.First club fitting for me so not quite sure what to expect.Rick took the time and explained every step in detail and made the entire process enjoyable.I hit a lot of different clubs, shafts and heads until we came to a final club selection that I'm very happy with.Rick is very good at what he does, he even gave me a few points about my swing during the process.If anyone is thinking about a club fitting I highly recommend Rick. I'm looking forward to getting my new clubs and taking a few lessons with Rick before I head to Florida.

I picked a great spot to spend the day!

Stopped in on 10/24/2015 to kill an afternoon. Based on the web reviews I'd seen and the well stocked pro shop I asked for a lesson with Rick. Although he had three straight lined up he still fit me in after I hit a large bucket. He listened to what I was thinking and working on in my swing; made a few adjustments and I was quite pleased with the results. Even though I'm an hour and a half away I will definitely be coming back for instruction and a fitting when it's time for new sticks. Thank you guys!

World Class!

Top Notch service and fittings

I've now gone to Sittler Golf Center for my irons, driver and fairway woods. All custom fit. Each session was great and every club I have is perfect for my game and swing. This is a direct result of Sittlers helping find what is right for me. Maybe the best part about getting custom fit at Sittlers is that it's basically a free lesson.
By far the best Golf Center in Berks County if not the state. Thanks!

Best of the Best

I've been going to Sittler's for 20 years. Rick and his staff have always treated me like a Tour Player even though I'm far from it. Rick's instructions and technical advice are easy to understand and have helped me tremendously over the years. I've also purchased many sets of clubs and equipment from Sittler's over the years and their fitting services are second to none and their pricing is outstanding. These folks are first class and I know your game will improve if you visit. I know mine has. Thank you for keeping things fun!

The lessons I have had with Rick so far has definitely improved my overall golf game. I previously had a wicked slice and could not figure out how to correct it. With a some adjustments, I am now hitting more straight and consistent shots. One of the best takeaways while working with Rick is that he explains what you are doing wrong and how to correct it. One of my biggest challenges is that I would go back my old tendencies while playing on the course. The fact that I know how to correct my mistakes is vital for myself and golf game.
Thanks for all your help!

Thank You

Mr

After a 20 year hiatus from golf and starting up again two years ago I thought I would invest in a new set of custom fitted clubs. After many recommendations I went to Sittler Golf. I clearly made the right choice. I was extremely happy with the entire process from start to finish. The service I received was excellent and so are the clubs. I had the pleasure of picking them up last Friday and got out on the course Monday. I hit 10 fairways off the tee with my driver!!! No complaints there. Sittler Golf has my business from now on. Thank you very much for everything.

Will Be Back!

Lesson

The lesson made a big difference. I thought I would never be able to swing well befor the lesson. After Rick watched me swing, he saw where I was going wrong. I know now that I was trying so hard to keep my left arm straigh that I was not turning my hips back at the same time as my arms were swinging back. I had always thought that the hips should stay still until the end of the golf swing. Now that I know the correct method, I will practice it. I will come back after I think I have accomplished that.

Hi, Rick,

Your advice and fitting were right on the money once again. The Mizuno MP 54 irons you recommended and then fit me for have upped my game to another level. I picked them up on a Tuesday, and played a round on Thursday with them. I proceeded to shoot one of the best rounds I've had this season. The feel is beyond anything I have ever hit before - the proverbial "feels like butter". I have discovered a new accuracy and consistency, as well. They launch high and come down steeply and softly. No trouble reaching and holding greens. So much of all this is directly related to your skill in club fitting. I was consistently making contact in the center of the club - just like during our fitting session. Thanks for helping to make the game even more enjoyable.

Golf Fiiting - 9/13/14

Drove over 2 hours to Sittlers from Maryland to get fitted for a set of Mizuno irons. Needless to say it was well worth the drive, a great experience. Rick explained every step of the fitting process to me making it both enjoyable as well as educational.I can't remember how many combination of shafts and heads we tried but in the end there was no doubt he found the right combination for me. I would also like to thank his wife Patti for taking the time to answer all my questions over the phone even calling Nike and Mizuno to get club information for me. If you are in the market for a new set of clubs, I would highly recommend seeing Patti and Rick Kline at Sittler Golf.

First Ace!

Hi Rick,

YES, I had a very good experience with the lesson! Thanks, your tips were VERY helpful.

Just as I was leaving the lesson Saturday afternoon, my friend called, and we met over at Rich Maiden.

I hit the ball just great. Nice solid contact, with a nice high draw shape.

I kept calm the hole round, ended +3. One double, a few bogies, two birdies and an ACE! My first one, I bounced an easy 9 iron in from 128!

Wow, when I said I felt I was close to improving a lot, I didn't think I would have a hole in one and my best round ever a few hours later!

Really, seeing the face tape and how much variation in contact I was making, along with you recognizing that I was breaking a little in the back made me face the fact that I need to concentrate more, hit more squarely. Firming up my left hand a bit with the thumb more steady on the club. Tempo and follow through are huge.

I guess I sort of felt I was hitting it a few millimeters from square, not an inch! I can do better than that!

Also played two rounds Sunday at Hickory Valley, had low drama 89 and 91. Definitely striking the ball much more squarely, solidly.

I sprayed a handful of long shots, duffed a few chips or I easily could have been lower 80's.

I'll practice it in a bit more and come see you again,

Thanks again,

Peter

Club Fitting

Golfers: I have played golf for 33 years. Yesterday the sun was shining and I thought it might be time to upgrade my clubs since they are getting older. I play Calloway warbird woods from @1992. I Hit Hogan Apex irons from @2000 era. The reason for this story is to tell you that after all these years, I decided to get fitted for clubs (and just see if i could benefit from newer technology) versus just buy off the rack. I went to

Clubfitting

Had a club fitting with Ricky on Saturday morning. Just wanted to let everybody know what a great job he did â€“ it went much better than I thought it would. He worked with me on club elimination and was very patient until I found the right clubs. Iâ€™m really satisfied with the Irons , Hybrids & Woods I selected â€“ not all the same brand â€“ and that I didnâ€™t

just select clubs to select something. Ricky gave me a few swing tips , which worked well in my afternoon round.

Looking forward to picking up my new clubs, Thanks again.

Thank You

Rick,

Thanks to all at Sittler for your help today. Rick and Kenny were both great. My wife (who is not a golfer) and I both felt like we were treated as old friends on our first visit. I really appreciate Kenny's help with my wedges -- lots of good insight into what I need to do. I'll definitely be back for help on my fairway wood and driver.

Thanks again !

I cannot say enough positive things about Sittler. Staff was friendly, helpful and all done with a smile. The lesson was superb; well articulated with just enough to do but not an overload of information nor gimmicks. Rick is a gifted instructor; again, friendly, engaging and yet professional. I left feeling great about the lesson as well as the established goals. And even though I felt good after purchasing my clubs at Sittler's about two years ago, I felt even better about my experience today. I will highly recommend Sittler's to my patients and colleagues.

Thank You

Rick

Thanks for the continued hard work and effort. You have definitely gone above and beyond on my behalf. Your experience and professionalism has allowed me to have a set of sticks that consistently perform at a high level. This has been by far the best fitting experience I have had to date.

The whole process has convinced me that without the correct fitting you will not be able to perform at your highest potential. This is whether you are an aspiring tournament player or a casual golfer.

I look forward to being a continued customer for years to come.

Your hard work does not go unnoticed.

Thanks for Your Help

Thanks for your help with Timmy. We just found out tonight he made the Schuylkill League Boys All Star Team, with an average of 79.6 for the season. He played first on his team, they just finished an undefeated regular season, and will be in the league playoffs tomorrow.

He finished 11 out of 48 in the Sch League Tournament, with an 88. His best round of the year was a 71 at Mountain Valley. Everyone at the course knew he was under par, and came to 18 to watch them finish. His approach was just over the green, and he used the chip with the sand wedge you showed him to get it close enough to make his par and save his 71.

Anyway, thanks, and see you soon for my follow up lessons. I have put my game on the back burner during Timmy's season. Hope to groove everything before the winter.

Thanks.

Patty & Rick

I would like to say thank you for having demo days and giving me and others to have the opportunity to try out the newest equipment prior to buying.

Getting the chance to see how a club feels and being able to compare it to an other is really important in the decision process.

I bought a Ping G-10 driver and a G-10 utility club at the last demo day and am very happy with both clubs.

I would also like to thank Mike for staying on top of special orders. It took a little longer than expected to get me clubs, but when I called to ask questions Mike already had to answers concerning my order.

Thanks again to the both of you for the services you provide for all of us.

Custom Fitting

Hi everyone at Sittler's 6/19/2011

I want to thank Kenny and the rest of the gentlemen for your courtesy and time spent trying to create the clubs needed for my height, swing, and ability as a novice golfer (even after 6 years)!

After many, many lessons over these years I was able to hit the ball better but the contact with the irons, especially, has started getting worse due to some arthritis in the hands and ill-fitting cut-down clubs.

Kenny was so patient with me and knew what my problems were - my clubs were almost 2 inches too short and the lie was off a few degrees. I can't wait to receive the new custom-fitted clubs, especially the hybrids and the huge Calloway Diablo driver!! I still have a paid lesson with Brad at Whitetail in Bath and he wants to go over all the new clubs at that time. It was his suggestion that I go to you to be fitted properly. He knows that I love the game but was getting more and more frustrated with my results.

Thank you all again -
Hope to see you soon when the clubs are in, Nancy S.

A Big Thank You

Rick,
Just wanted to send a big THANK YOU your way for your time and
expertise last Saturday. Your points really have helped Judy hit the
ball much straighter!

It is a delight to be around someone like you, Rick. You obviously
have a love and passion for the game of golf and have equal abilities
to teach others. That is a rare combination. We feel blessed to
have selected you to become our golf guru and look forward to more
good times with you.

Let me know when you get the Ping G10 fitting stuff in. I felt I had
the best feel with either the Ping Raptures or the Ping G10. I'll
come in for a fitting.

Until the next time,

Aaron

GREAT Service

Rick / Patty

Just wanted to say thanks for the GREAT service I enjoyed at the demo day yesterday. Every single member of your team could not have been more friendly and helpful; I was truly impressed. When I was ready for my fitting and still couldn't decide between brands Rick was decent enough to allow me to keep hitting when really I should have made my mind up. Being given this extra time when I know you were busy allowed me to make my choice in confidence. At no point did I feel rushed.

I'm looking forward to getting my AP1's and lowering my score!

Exceeded My Expectations

Hi Patty 4/13/2011

I wanted to take this moment to compliment Kenny Hugo's personalized guidance in fitting me for my first (and maybe last??) set of clubs at your shop yesterday. I was a "drop-in" client yesterday, on a rainy day. For years, wanted to be custom fitted for "my personalized set of sticks". Ken demonstrated patience, keen observations, presented to me continuous golf balls and clubs, all the while conveying the magical words "what feels good?", while monitoring ball flight from the various manufacturers' clubs. He exhibits knowledge of each manufacturer, and even offered that possibly my "draw-to-"hook" was a result of using standard length clubs (forever!), and indicated I compensate at impact with rotating my wrists! Makes sense..

I look forward to the day "my" set arrives. There's no "rush" - let the system work, and you will call me when they arrive. After all, we're not "exactly" enjoying golfing weather this week!

Thanks! - Sittler Golf Center has exceeded my expectations during this fitting experience!

Sincerely,
Jeff C. Penn Argyl, PA

The Best

Dear Rick,Thank you all for such a pleasant experience in helping me pick out my new driver on Friday. I had heard so many good things about Sittler's and actually going through the experience only reinforced the fact that you are THE BEST!!!!!... Rick, I especially want to thank you for your trust in me by letting me take my new club home and then just calling in the gift card number, saving me another trip out there. I TRULY appreciate your trust. Mark, I will have to take you up on that driver lesson, BUT if I do start launching them over the fence I am NOT going to retrieve them...THAT IS WHY YOU HAVE ANDY NOW..LOL. Andy, we miss you at "The Pond"...but you seem very happy and I can see why with the great people there.. I will always be back anytime I need golf equipment and will tell everyone about my this gem we have in the Lehigh Valley.Thanks again to all.. Harry G

Keep Up the Good Work

I can not thank you enough for the experience of having lesson sessions which taught me more then I have learned with three previous Teachers of the game of golf. The 3 lesson package was worth every cent. I really think it was the way it was presented, with what I needed to work on each lesson, to ingrain in me a new swing thought to offset my old mechanics, which were brought on by many good intentioned people and books etc. I just want to say, keep up the good work.

Thanks Ted N.

Top Notch Facili

Dear Rick and Patty,

I wanted to take a moment to pass on my some of my thoughts about your staff and your establishment. First, your facility is really top notch, from your choice of club manufacturers, to your indoor and outdoor practice areas, to your simulator and especially your staff. Now I have to tell you I have been a client of Mark Csencsits for years and he is the reason I initially visited your facility. On that initial visit I received the professionalism and terrific advice I have come to expect from Mark, but I also interacted with other staff members including the both of you. Everyone was extremely kind and helpful. That initial visit was 2 or 3 years ago.
Just recently I spent time with Mark to get fitted for first new set of clubs in about 8 years. In the past I have spoken to other "professionals" and some have made light about custom fitting. I have heard things from "oh, you are a normal height and weight, the standard club should be fine--most people are fine with the factory setup", to "amateurs' swings change, so most of the fitting numbers are irrelevant". Well, after Mark taking all the time needed, we found the clubs and the proper club setup needed for me and let me tell you that setup is anything but "standard". For those who think fittings are only for low handicappers--- they should think again!! I also believe I benefit from having Mark as my Pro as he has also built my swing and knows my game. I have always recommended Mark to people I know, but now I will be HIGHLY recommending Club Fittings, hitting multiple clubs, and your facility. You are truly a Full service facility and I truly feel comfortable there.
I also noticed that you employ a good number of "younger" adults. I have to tell you that the respect and tremendously helpful nature and knowledge of all of your staff is very refreshing, whether it is the busiest time of the year or a cold day in the middle of December. Kudos too, on your year round hours and indoor facility.
As mentioned, I visited your facility the first time due to the 8+ years that Mark and I have worked together, but you now have my loyalty for all of my equipment purchases. Now when I talk to friends and they discuss buying equipment on the Internet or purchasing used irons---I cannot emphasize to them enough how important it is to have a Pro evaluate your swing, fix you mechanically, and then fit you for your clubs. By doing the fitting we determined that the initial set of clubs I "thought" I wanted were not right for me and that I would benefit from having my new clubs customized--- so much for me being "Standard"!
By having that consultation I have purchased the correct club for my game, adjusted for my swing, from a Pro I trust and a facility that I am comfortable with. Hmmm.... but I possibly could have saved $100 or so on the internet by purchasing the wrong club, with a less favorable lie, a shaft that was not fitted to my swing speed, from a person I never met who may not back up a product that I will probably have for 5-10 years-- hmmmm... some would said I made a smart decision--- 'Ya Think!!

Hello, Rick,

I just played my first round with the new TaylorMade R9 460 that you fitted me with last Friday. The club rigged with the Fujikura Motore 65 shaft performed on the course even better than it did on the range on Friday. Playing a Bridgestone Tour B330 RX ball, I only missed one fairway, and that was on one of the two drives I hit over 300 yards ( I was in the first cut of rough still with a clear shot to the green)! I never expected someone my age to be able to hit it that far, but I did it twice. I was averaging around 260 the entire round with a couple in the 280 and 290 yard range. The best part was that I was doing this while still keeping it in the fairways! This is truly an amazing driver! I've never experienced such instantaneous improvement with a club. My worst drives were as good as my best drives had been up to this point this year. Our little experiment with switching the Motore from the regular R9 has to be judged a success. The little extra shaft weight worked beautifully for me.

Thanks again for your help with setting me up with a great new piece of equipment.

A New Regular Customer

Rick & Patty Kline: (and to all at Sittler Golf)

Hello. Good Evening. My name is Howie and I reside in Mahanoy, PA (Schuylkill County) some 50 miles for the Kutztown Area. I just wanted to take this opportunity to pass along some comments regarding Sittler Golf Center, as I recognize the importance in running and maintaining a successful bussiness. Within the last few weeks, I made several purchases at your shop, all to my extreme satisfaction. I'm a mid to high 70's shooter, however I enjoy the process of keeping up with latest available golf technology and equipment. I usually upgrade most of my equipment each Spring with the latest available models and have discovered that your shop is very much "on the right track" so to speak. In some 23+ years in my golfing past, I usually would travel to all different types of shops in the early season, basically all over northeastern PA in search of what I wanted to buy.
     From my observations--you all WERE the FIRST to carry the new PROV1s, the ONLY place that could QUICKLY find me a kit of older rare-model Winn grips I use, the ONLY place that carried in stock the new Titleist 907D1 Driver with my exact preferred specs (which you also regripped overnight), as well as a Footjoy rainsuit I had not seen anywhere but on the internet..
     Additionally, last year I scheduled an equipment analysis with one of your staff members which also was excellently conducted. If you all are not aware, this type of service is basically "unheard of" up in my area. And it was certainly well worth the travel down there for it.
     Keep up the great work! You've succeeded in providing me with the equipment I needed for my first few rounds of 2007. I'm sure this is what you strive for...so you have earned a new regular customer. Thanks Again!!

Sincerely,

Howie S

Demo Day

Rick, I just wanted to contact you in reference to my email in march.

I attended your demo day and had a great time. It's not often that us lefties get the chance to hit clubs like that.

I think. .hopefully i have the right names.. Ricky and Zack took great care of me once i was ready to purchase a club. It was definitely a positive experience. Those guys were having fun while helping people with their purchases. I did buy that 3 wood that i was looking for from your shop and am looking forward to my new clubs arrival.

That new super quad that i hit from taylor made was pretty sweet and when the deal is right i think i might jump!!

I know that sometimes people only send the negative messages and wanted you to know the flip side. Thanks Rick.

Great Experience

To The Management of Sittler Golf,

     I'm writing this letter to tell you about the great experience I had choosing new clubs (irons) at your shop. As much as I wanted to get fit for new irons, I had several concerns about the process. Where should I go, will I get to try all the l cubs that I want to, will the pro/fitter listen to what I want? After seeing Sittler's endorsements from several top club manufacturers I made an appointment for comprehensive custom iron fitting.
     My pro/fitter was Mark Csencsits. Mark helped me select new clubs with the perfect mix of listening and professional input. I was able to try various brands, some I already had in mind and some I hadn't thought about. We methodically worked it down to the clubs I liked best and then got fitted.
     It was great having a knowledgeable pro help me choose with confidence. I feel sure that I am getting the best clubs that I can get for me, as he not only told me what clubs fit my swing but also why.
     In summary, my fitting was educational, rewarding and fun! The entire staff at Sittler's was courteous and helpful. Thank you very much, I can't wait to hit the course!

Sincerely, David E
