Bob Vokey Clinic at The Carrick at Cameron House
Having seen that all of the Titleist Ambassadors playing at the Scottish Open at Loch Lomond had the correct set up in their wedges, Master Craftsman Bob Vokey took some time to visit with a number of Titleist PGA Professional customers just up the road at The Carrick at Cameron House.

In splendid weather and against a fantastic backdrop of the hills rising up from Loch Lomond, 16 Titleist customers spent a morning in Voke’s company as he recounted “Tales from the Tour”, his approach to fitting wedges and details of which set up would suit which player. Having been bombarded with questions from the eager PGA Professionals, Bob and the group moved down onto the practice ground – “da Voke” was in his element and spent an hour and a half working with the attendees and providing them with the insight gained over years of working with the best players in the world.
Having dragged Bob off the practice ground and back to the clubhouse for lunch, several of the pros took further opportunity to pick Voke’s brain. Everyone left in great spirits with practical tips and a new insight on club fitting that they would take back to their clubs and customers!
Commenting on the day, Ian Lee, PGA Professional from Haigh Hall Golf Complex, near Wigan in England, said: “I thoroughly enjoyed the day and learnt so much from one of golf’s legendary club designers – I always feel you get more from the man who said or designed it first!”
A big thanks to Bob from all at Titleist in Europe and from the Titleist European Tour Blog Team!
