Texas Business reports: DALLAS— Gleneagles Country Club, a member of the ClubCorp family of clubs, opened a TaylorMade Performance Lab, one of only four locations across the country to provide golfers of all ages and abilities a state-of-the-art fitting experience that uses 3D motion capture technology, which is then analyzed by a full-time certified TaylorMade Clubfitting professional.
The two-hour fitting experience, which features TaylorMade's MAT-T System, uses reflective markers positioned on strategic points of the body, as well as on the grip, shaft and head of the specially designed MAT-T club, to do a full swing analysis of the golfer and club.
The 3D swing image and information help the TaylorMade Clubfitting Professional recommend drivers, fairway woods, hybrids, irons, wedges, and putters to match each golfer's swing and needs. Golfers receive a copy of the 3D swing image, swing information and recommendations to keep or share with a golf instructor.
“We are very excited about having the TaylorMade Performance Lab on the premises of the club,” said Gleneagles golf director Brent Halvorson in a prepared statement. “This is a great benefit for the members at Gleneagles as well as members of clubs in the ClubCorp family, and will be a one-of-a-kind attraction for all golfers in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, allowing us to showcase Gleneagles – including the recently enhanced driving range and new short-game practice facilities – to the local community.”
Members of clubs in the ClubCorp family receive a preferred rate of $250 for a fitting session, and the cost for non-members is $400
Gleneagles Country Club is a private club located in the community of West Plano.
Established in 1985, the club has a 36-hole golf course designed by the team of Von Hagge and Devlin, a driving range, a short game practice area, and three putting greens. |
