A Family Fitting Surprise with Emma Carpenter | Fit for a Surprise

5 min
Added on July 29, 2026
A day at the Titleist Performance Institute becomes something Kris and Mike Carpenter never saw coming, as Emma Carpenter surprises her parents with a fitting experience made just for them.

Golf has been part of the Carpenter family for years. Kris and Mike were there through the tournaments, lessons, travel, college visits and everything else that helped Emma build a life in the game. At TPI, she gets the chance to give some of that back.

With new GTS drivers, fairway metals and SM11 wedges ready to test, the fitting gives Kris and Mike a closer look at their own games - their swings, their preferences, their numbers and the clubs that help everything feel a little more natural.

Their old clubs carry plenty of history, from hand-me-downs to classic woods that have stayed in the bag for years. This time, the focus is on what comes next: more confidence off the tee, better options around the green and a fitting experience centered entirely on them.

More than anything, the day is a thank-you - full of laughs, a few emotional moments and the kind of golf memory that means more because of the people sharing it.
