Myrtle Beach - Pawleys Island, South Carolina

Is proud to recommend Dr. Golf Of Pawleys Island for your Golf needs.

Dr. Golf (Lanny Correll Sr.) named one of the World's TOP 100 Golf Club Fitters! Pawley’s Island club guru honored for “superior knowledge, skill, and commitment” in custom club fitting. Lanny Correll Sr., owner of Dr. Golf in Pawley’s Island, has been named to the “World’s Top 100 Club Fitters for 2006 and 2007" list. The honor recognizes the golf industry’s most skilled, most knowledgeable, and most committed to the process of custom fitting golf equipment. The 2006 & 2007 Top 100 list includes club fitters from all over North America, as well as countries as far away as Taiwan and The Netherlands. Custom-fitted clubs have long been the norm on the professional tours. By analyzing a player’s size, physical characteristics, and ball launch conditions, club fitters are able to build golf clubs with precise specifications that maximize each individual’s performance. Lanny Correll Sr. has brought his twenty five years of unique experience of custom club fitting service to golfers in the Pawley’s Island & surrounding areas. A Certified Master Club Fitter by KZG, Correll plies his trade in a facility best described as a high tech country club. Dr. Golf features an area for testing and analysis, a putting green, a workshop for building and repair, and a complete showroom of clubs and accessories. Visiting customers are exposed to the entire custom fitting process. Correll employs the equipment industry’s latest technology to make the fitting experience as comprehensive as possible. In addition to a quick-connect system that allows customers to test virtually any combination of shaft and clubhead, Dr. Golf uses launch monitors to gather precision data – spin rate, launch angle, ball speed -- about how customers hit the golf ball. Correll also employs a special device to measure shaft performance during the swing. This information helps him make accurate recommendations about what shaft and head specifications best fit his customers’ swings and physical attributes. “At the end of the day it’s all about expectations – meeting mine means exceeding the customers’,” says Correll. “If the clubs aren’t right or don’t look perfect in every way, they’re dismantled and I’ll start over. Being a perfectionist has been a real blessing to my business.” Correll no doubt brings that perfectionism to his own golf game: Along with his son, Lanny Jr., the Corrells have won the National Father-Son Golf Championship twice and the South Carolina title five times. “We’re thrilled to be associated with a professional club fitter of Lanny’s caliber,” said Jennifer King, President of KZG. “Much of the golf world operates under the false impression that custom fitting means simply taking a player’s static measurements, or testing a handful of demo clubs for personal preference. Real custom fitting is one part science, one part craft, and one part understanding people. A great fitter not only harnesses the latest ball launch monitors to build high-performance equipment, but possesses the intangibles to create a meaningful and successful personal relationship between the golfer and his clubs. Lanny Correll couldn’t be a better example of that ideal.”

The Q-Fit Process All customers fill out a custom fitting form. The information on this form starts the process of providing Dr. Golf with your present game, equipment, and the areas we need to study to make improvements. We look for information about strengths, weakness,yardage,inconsistencies,etc. We then sit down for a personal interview that allows us to learn more about yourself, and your game, by discussing the information from the fitting form in more detail. This conversation can take as little as 1 hour, or as long as it takes to put everything on the table about your game. Here is where we do a static Pre-Fit. We have learned enough about your game from the fitting form and personal Interview, that we have a good feel for what your game is needing, and what new clubs would be a good fit, or hoe we can re-construct your old clubs for the "Perfect Fit". Dr. Golf’s philosophy on club & shaft design led him to customized and design his own shaft utilizing all knowledge he has gathered throughout the years. With his custom shafts and customers’ correct frequencies, higher handicap golfers should play cast heads for forgiveness of miss hits and lower handicaps should play forged for consistency of distance and accuracy. Players, with low club head speed, which forces the inability to hit distance and height should play graphite irons. Players with more swing speed will have immediate feedback to miss hits with steel shafts. Therefore, all good players should play steel shafts. Regardless of age all players should have graphite in woods. Dr. Golf’s Facility Walking into Dr. Golf’s facility, a customer enters the showroom which displays retail items one can purchase to enhance his/her game. Many lines of golf accessories and training aids as well as a custom fitting putting platform. Next, is the testing room where the present equipment is analyzed and frequencies are checked and recorded. Displays of all the golf heads and shafts sold are featured here also. Lastly, is the manufacturing area which carries the loft and lie machine, tour gauge putter machine, frequency analyzer plus cutting and sanding facilities. Dr. Golf is able to utilize each sq. ft. to the best of his ability to fulfill each customer’s needs by customization of each club. Business at Dr. Golf Dr. Golf‘s business revolves strongly on the fact the quality of work must meet his expectations.
