There will also be an opportunity for those who undergo a fitting on the day, and anyone who currently uses clubs from the 917 family, to win exclusive prizes.

“The Titleist 917 National Fitting Day is a hugely exciting initiative which we are thrilled to be rolling out with our Titleist Fitting Partners,” said Chris Beaumont, Golf Club Marketing Manager, Titleist.

What happens during a Titleist Thursday?

As well as improved Active Recoil Channel 2.0 and Radial Speed Face 2.0 on the 917 driver comes SureFit CG, a weight port in the back of the head that allows the swing weight, launch, spin and shot shape to be dialed in even further. It is positioned at a 30-degree angle to clubface, to keep spin levels low when in the fade position while maintaining forgiveness.

Advanced booking is required by phoning the venue directly.

Under the watchful eye of Titleist’s team of expert fitting technicians, golfers will be fitted alongside some of the best players in the world on the driving range at Wentworth, as the competition for the BMW PGA Championship crown nears its conclusion.

All lucky winners will receive a day-pass for either Saturday or Sunday to watch all of the action, before being invited onto the range to enjoy a custom-fit session with a Titleist Product Specialist, who will help find the perfect Titleist 917 Driver or Fairway combination of head, loft, shaft, Surefit® Hosel and Surefit® CG for their game.

They will also undergo a golf ball fitting to find out which of Titleist’s golf ball models is best suited to their game.
