Meet the Pros at Totally Driven

"Hi, my name is Andy Thompson. I had a vision in 2004 about creating a true golf improvement facility. While trying to improve my own game I found that there was really no place to go to that could help me determine where to start. I was a competitive athlete but was unable to attain the same level of success on the golf course. When playing golf I had back and hip pain, an inconsistent swing and I wasn't sure if my equipment was right.
I’m proud of what we’ve put together at Totally Driven. We’ve put together a facility that has all the elements needed to help golfers improve. We have developed through a lot of research a Tour Experience Club-Fitting system for a golfer of any ability. We have in my opinion the best club-builder in the Midwest in Jon Weedman. Through the Titliest Performance Institute training we are helping people play pain free and develop more efficient swings. We have state of the art technology including the K-Vest 3D Imaging, SAM PUTT Lab, two angles of video and Pure Balance as well as various swing aids that we use for teaching. We have the best putter fitting system in the world with EDEL GOLF. But most of all we have fun and we all work together to do everything we can to help you improve. Lynn Anderson, Jon and I are all committed to put our heads together when needed to insure we get the best result for each customer.
	"Hi, my name is Lynn Anderson. I am a certified TPI and ACE Personal Trainer. As one of the owners of Totally Driven, I thought I would give you a little history of how I got here. In 1996 after 13 years as a tennis professional, I decided to see if I could have similar success playing golf. I really wanted to play on tour.
I found a personal trainer and golf pro who were able to spend the time with me and after a couple years I did make it onto the mini-tour. While on my way through Florida I went through the “Ping Fitting System” and ordered some new irons. I was excited, until I started hitting them. Every shot went left, no matter what I did. So here I am, trying to make cuts and I have clubs that I can’t hit straight. I took the clubs to a true club-fitter on the advice of my teaching pro and found out that the flex of my shafts was incorrect as were the lie angles. Their knowledge of golf equipment impressed me so much that I had them build me a set of clubs. These clubs were as different as night and day from the ones I was using before. In fact, the first time I used them in a tournament I shot a 69. Obviously, I had learned the importance of being correctly fit for clubs." You don’t have to be trying to make it on tour to take advantage of our services. We bring all the elements I found to be important into one facility… teaching, personal training, club-fitting, short game, repair and much more. You don’t have to drive all over town to practice, take lessons, get equipment and work with a personal trainer. It’s all here under one roof!
	Hi, my name is Jon Weedman. I am one of the owners of Totally Driven, and have been a professional club maker for 8 years. I am a PCS Certified Class A Club Maker. We are also a certified Rifle Center through Royal Precision, which gives me the expertise to truly customize Rifle shafts to suit your needs.
At Totally Driven our club making process is much different than at a mass production factory. We take the time to build your clubs one at a time.
Attention is paid to make sure your clubs are frequency matched and the swing weights are appropriate for your needs. We do this by "dry fitting" the clubs first to insure we hit the specification the fitter recommended. Loft and lies are adjusted throughout the set. Obviously, clubs that are mass produced and bought off the rack can't be given this level of detail. Our "Brand Name" clubs are given the same custom treatment, as we pull them apart and start from scratch. We won't sell anything to you that is mass produced. I have the ability to customize your Rifle shafts through my training from Precision Rifle. I can change the flex point in any Rifles to suit ability to hit the ball higher or lower. We can create a true "Flighted" set of irons if needed to give you a higher ball flight on your long irons and a more boring ball flight on your short irons. We can also create a full set of irons with a lower or higher flex point if needed. At Totally Driven we firmly believe in customizing your golf equipment to your needs. We don't cut corners. We do things right so that your golf game receives the full benefit of customization. Of course we offer full repair services including SST PURE
