I’m looking for recommendations in Sydney for which Drummond store to go to for a driver fitting.
Has anyone had any good experiences (or stores to steer clear of) using Drummond for a new driver ?.....and before I get rubbished for using Drummond, I have around $500 in vouchers I need to use and don’t want to buy just bits and pieces of you know what I mean.
Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

I've hardly ever set foot in a Drummonds Humphrey but one of the younger guys from my club runs one at Dee Why, a bit of a hike from Quakers Hill but their reviews are good (assuming you take that into account)

I’m open to all suggestions, thanks for your input Perry. I’ve heard positive feedback from the Penrith store as well but just wanted to see what people think.

You might be better off going to a few demo days run by manufacturers then buying the driver from Drummond.

The Pacific Golfer magazine and Golf Grinder weekly newsletter both have lists.

Drive to Drummonds in Canberra, Craig Carmichael is the fitter (former touring pro), he was brilliant with me, I was fitted into the new Titleist and very happy with it.

My recent purchase (full bag) was the first time I have purchased clubs from DG, I will happily recommend to all. The MiMatch system isn't bulldust, manufacturer agnostic, they get your correct specs and then they will send your specs off to the manufacturers to build what you want.

Very different to what I have had with House of Golf Bondi Junction and Golf Mart York Street (both appalling experiences)

Ping, Callaway, Titleist & Mizuno all have demo day listings on their websites:

The fitters at these days may have a better range of shafts to try than a retail store.

Thanks for the info guys. I’ll look into them and see what I can organize.
