Babes Golf & True Spec Partnership: A New Swing for Women’s Golf Accessibility
Babes Golf, the rapidly growing women’s golf community, is partnering with True Spec Golf, a leader in custom club fitting, to offer exclusive benefits to its members. This collaboration aims to address a common barrier to entry for women in golf: ill-fitting equipment. The partnership, announced on March 26, 2026, provides discounts on fittings and purchases at True Spec’s nearly 40 locations nationwide.
The Problem with Hand-Me-Downs and Starter Sets
Many women begin their golf journey with hand-me-down clubs or inexpensive starter sets. While these are a excellent starting point, they often aren’t optimized for a woman’s swing. “A lot of times women come to us and they have hand-me-downs from their husband, these really heavy clubs,” explains Babes Golf founder Alex Andersen. “Golf is already hard and it’s just making it harder.” This can hinder progress and enjoyment of the game.
Why Custom Fitting Matters
As women invest more in their golf game – taking lessons and clinics – they often realize their initial equipment isn’t suitable. True Spec provides a brand-agnostic fitting experience, meaning they work with clubs and shafts from all major manufacturers to find the best combination for each golfer. This contrasts with some retailers who primarily promote their own brands.
Membership Perks: From Discounts to Complimentary Fittings
The partnership offers tiered benefits based on Babes Golf membership level. Premier and Elite members receive one complimentary annual fitting (a $375 value), while National members obtain a 50% discount. All membership levels also enjoy discounts on purchases made at True Spec. Babes Golf currently offers three membership tiers: National ($100 annually), Premier ($200 annually), and Elite ($450 annually).
Beyond Fittings: Community and Events
The collaboration extends beyond just club fitting. True Spec will also partner with Babes Golf on promotional events and at flagship events like “Babecation” trips. These trips, such as the upcoming event at PGA West in La Quinta in May, and a sold-out event at Big Cedar Lodge in October, provide immersive golf experiences for women.
True Spec’s Commitment to Growth
True Spec president Scott Anderson emphasized the company’s dedication to growing the game of golf and providing a welcoming environment for all players. “We have always encouraged women to embrace the game, and a big part of being able to do that is by having a welcoming environment to be properly fit for clubs,” Anderson stated.
The Rise of Women’s Golf Communities
Babes Golf, founded in 2017 in San Diego, exemplifies a growing trend of women’s golf communities. These groups focus on creating a supportive and social environment, making the game more accessible and enjoyable for women of all skill levels. Babes Golf members can connect through events, clinics, range meet-ups, and a community app.
Pro Tip:
Don’t underestimate the impact of properly fitted clubs. A professional fitting can add distance, improve accuracy, and enhance your overall enjoyment of the game.
