2004-09-17 - The GolfWorks Welcomes New Clubmakers

NEWARK, Ohio — The GolfWorks welcomes several more custom clubmakers who have successfully completed The GolfWorks Fitting, Assembly & Repair School, one of the clubmaking industry’s premier technical certification programs. The newest graduates include: Garry Arai of Wayne, Mich.; Stephen Clarke of Amherst, Va.; James A Fullarton of Havana, Fla.; Jerry Folkerts, Springfield, Va.; Michael Prasco of Salem, Ohio; and Pentti Railasto of Chicago.   
 
“The GolfWorks Fitting, Assembly & Repair School is the most comprehensive training program available in clubmaking today,” says Britt Lindsey, vice president of technical services for The GolfWorks. “The GolfWorks founder Ralph Maltby literally wrote the book on custom fitting, golf club assembly and repair, so our training staff is extremely dedicated in providing attendees with a complete understanding of custom clubmaking and repair skills.”

The GolfWorks Fitting, Assembly & Repair School has set the standard for complete clubmaking and repair instruction for two decades! During the five-day session, each critical element of clubmaking — fitting, assembly and repair — receives extensive individual attention, but only in context of how they combine to provide a comprehensive understanding of complete golf equipment expertise. An added bonus for attendees of this session is a tour of the Maltby Design Golf Club Studio, where they see one of the most comprehensive and elaborate R&D prototype development centers in the golf industry.

Since 1982, thousands of clubmakers, golf industry experts and PGA professionals have visited The GolfWorks design and manufacturing campus in Newark, Ohio, to learn the latest skills and technology from the game’s premier technical staff. GolfWorks classes qualify for PGA of America Continuing Education credits and are approved by the Professional Clubmakers Society.
