This year I started trying to golf. Well as one would expect I was terrible. I went out quite a few…read moretimes and couldn't really hit the ball very well. Someone I know asked if I wanted to go to a driving lesson. It was only a couple hours and it was affordable so I went. I literally learned how to hit the ball with my driver in that one class. I was so impressed with how much I learned that I paid for two more women's lessons. I'm good enough now that I'm actually going to sign up for a real lesson. If you like golf and are looking for somewhere to take lessons....this is the place!!!!

As I will be moving to Michigan soon, I really needed a place to consider as a practice range…read morethroughout the winter months. This range will do nicely!! The covered tees are heated for winter use. The heat is welcomed but you will still want to practice in a light jacket during the winter months. Gloves on both hands will be welcomed too. The range is a franchisee of Toptracer Range Systems. Although the games on this computerized range radar system are a bit "gimmicky" for my personal taste - I can see where they would be fun if I hadn't driven 45 minutes to practice. Time is limited!! However, the stats captured by the system seem to be reasonably accurate and certainly provide for a worthwhile practice session. The store is also full service and carries all of the major brands. If they do not have it in stock, I am sure that they could order it for you. 4 stars as I wish the mats were a bit softer/of higher quality. I personally use a mat from Country Club Elite at home. Although I realize that they are expensive - they are the best mat I have used and I believe that being of commercial quality, they will last long enough to justify the cost. The addition to the customer experience would certainly be helpful. Lots of parking, but take a moment to figure out how to go behind nearby businesses to turn on Carpenter Road with the traffic light! You will thank me later!! [smile]

It all depends on what you want. I had a driver shaft fitting on February 16th, with a delivery…read moredate of a week to ten days. I put down a deposit of 50% of the total cost as requested by the fitter. On February 23rd , got a call from the fitter telling me MOG couldn't order the shaft without 100% of the total cost prepaid. The new delivery date was a week to ten days from the 23rd. I waited a week and called to check the status of my order. I was put on hold for about 10 minutes while the person checked. She came back on the line and said the person whose job it is to order shafts had forgotten to do so. At this point the fitting was over two weeks ago, without any action by MOG. The young woman apologized and said the shaft would be ordered the next day, with an expected delivery in a week. Of course, that didn't happen. Long story short and over a dozen phone calls to MOG I was able to pick up my new driver shaft on March 19th. Remember how I said I'd paid 100% in advance for my order? The counter guy apparently didn't know the process and couldn't read the computer properly so he tried to charge me again for the shaft. I said I'd already paid for it. He said, "How do I know that?" Fortunately, he managed to figure out the MOG computer system that showed I had indeed paid 100% in advance. The good news is the MOG fitter did an excellent job and I'm extremely happy with my new driver shaft. The bad news is the MOG retail staff is poorly trained in how to get answers to questions regarding special orders. The bottom line, for me, is that after a couple of decades of doing business with MOG, including getting fitted for a set of irons and a complete driver fitting prior to my latest purchase, I'm not going back to MOG for anything, not even to hit range balls.

This facility is has everything any golfer could want or need. The selection of clubs, clothing, balls, bags, and so much more will keep you busy for hours. What I like best is the range to test your equipment before you buy. I was lucky to work with Bradly Dolski. Bradly did a good job of making suggestions on clubs and supplying me with complimentary balls to try out my clubs on the range. The selection of clubs seemed endless but I found the set I liked and my son found his club choice as well. The prices are reasonable and you can get your some clubs adjusted to your swing style. Great service and amazing selection of everything golf will keep me coming back. Give Carls a chance and you'll be happy you did.
