PXG Deploys Game-Changing Mobile Fitting Experience at the Jim McLean Golf Center
Dallas, TX (November 3, 2016) – Six-time Hall of Fame and 2016 World Golf Teachers Hall of Fame instructor Jim McLean has signed an endorsement deal with Parsons Xtreme Golf (PXG). The new partnership seamlessly blends world-class golf instruction with the world’s finest golf equipment.
The partnership has two primary areas of focus: training and club fitting.
“At PXG we are 100 percent committed to performance,” said Founder & CEO Bob Parsons. “It makes sense for us to leverage the talent of top teaching professionals to continue to support our PXG Troops in their pursuit of better golf. Jim is a lights-out instructor and I couldn’t be more pleased to welcome him to the PXG team.”
“No one in golf thought that the iron category could be significantly improved, but PXG’s breakthrough technology takes feel and performance to a whole new level,” McLean shared. “I’ve seen incredible results in my own game and in the performance of my students. I am proud to be part of the PXG team and look forward to delivering world-class training, in addition to exceptional club fitting at the Jim McLean Golf Center in Dallas-Fort Worth.”
The Jim McLean Golf Center, which sits on 30 acres of land and boasts a 14,000 sq. ft. performance center, will act as the home base for the PXG’s mobile Master Fitter. The Golf Center provides five indoor SuperStation Teaching Bays with JC Video swing analysis, TrackManTM launch monitors, a Sam PuttLab putting studio, and a 3,500 sq. ft. fitness center.
“We are very excited about this opportunity to have PXG located at our facility in Texas,” said Grayson Zacker, Corporate Director of Instruction at the Jim McLean Golf School. “This is an incredible opportunity for not only us, but for our students as well. The addition of PXG’s club fitting experience and golf equipment will further enhance the many amenities currently available to our golfers.”
The endorsement by PXG adds to an extensive list of exceptional accomplishments that have helped McLean maintain his top ranking amongst an elite class of golf instructors worldwide.
