Rey: I'm still enjoying success with the Zero Tolerance driver that you built for me a couple of years ago.

Greetings Rey, I've been meaning to send you a note to thank you for the clubs you made for me. The Wishon head's and Project X shaft's work wonderfully together. The ball actually goes where I'm aimed. Something I'm not used to. I've passed your name on to many friends and colleagues who are contemplating new clubs. I'll be contacting you soon with regards to a new driver and possibly new putter. Thanks again.

Rey, thanks very much for the new driver it is proving to be a great addition along with the 22 degree hybrid, I would very much like to have you put together the 19 and 25 degree hybrids with the IROD shaft for me.

Just a short note to say the "New Driver" is working really, really well. Have tried it 3 times now, 2 outdoors. Once I got the hang of it, it really launches the ball straight and far. Very pleased ... Thanks again for all your help and knowledge regarding the clubs. Have a good day. Heading to the Okanagan at Easter and will put it to the test for sure.

I wanted to say Thank You for making me the driver and 2 wedges. Last Saturday at our Mens Day Opening, I won the +13 handicap longest drive and attribute this success to the driver, not my swing.

Dear Rey,
I just started golfing last Year, about halfway through the season. I got out quite a bit, not near as much as I had wanted to though. The game grew on me and I decided to try it out he next year as well. I quickly found out that although you may hate the game on-day stick with it because golf is an extremely fun and challenging game, and it makes you grow in many ways. Last year I was hitting around the 110 range and Arnold suggested that if I break one hundred that we would look for some new irons, I was using an old handed down set.
Well, I finally shot a 99. I had heard about you through Joe Marquise and decided to check it out the rumors. It turned out to be a very good decision.
You gave me an amazing deal for some incredible clubs! Not to mention the helpful lessons that improved my swing. I just wanted to say thank you for what you have done, it means a lot to me that some one other than family would care and be that giving. I also wanted to thank you for making my friend Cody his irons. I know he will enjoy them as much as I do.
The irons that I got from you have improved my game tremendously. I dropped about 8 - 10 strokes and added about 20-25 yards on all my irons. You are a great role model. It is always nice to see some one helping out the juniors the way you do. I hope to do the same when I am older.
Now I just have to work on the putting!
Thanks again Rey.
Sincerely,
Jordan Kilcommons
I had the pleasure of meeting Rey Erickson through a chance encounter with a mutual acquaintenance of of ours. I was lamenting to this mutual friend of how dissatisified I was with my new big name irons (complete with Graphite shafts). He suggested that I go visit a guy who was the best "Club Maker" in town that would analyse my clubs for me. As luck would have it, Rey was a close neighbour of mine, living not five minutes away. I called him up, introduced myself and asked if I could visit with him. Rey invited me to come over the next evening and said, "bring your clubs". When I got there the next night, after exchanging pleasantries it was right to work.
Rey ran me through a battery of drills and exercises to assess if the clubs I had were indeed the correct fit for me. After an extensive analysis, it was determined that my new shiny clubs (complete with Graphite shafts) were absolutely not the proper fit for me.
The testing confirmed that I should not be hitting clubs with a stiff shaft (as opposed to the extreme and irregular flex of the Graphite shaft) and that I should not be hitting clubs with a 2 degree flat lie. I was so impressed with this analysis I even had rey assess my putter. It came as no surprise that as I stood over the ball the heal of my putter was at least 1/2 inch off the surface. I was putting off the toe of my putter.
To this point all Rey had offered was to look at my equipment for me and provide his professional opinion. I then asked Rey what he could do for me and he politely said "I can help you" by fitting me with the correct clubs. There was no pressure to sell me anything. In fact he did not charge me for the 2 hours that I spent with him that evening. Impressed with this credentials and being thoroughly comfortable with his non-pressure approach to business. I phone him up a couple of nights later to arrange for a fitting. The detail and thoroughness of our next meeting resulted in the birth of a new set of clubs with the "Rey Erickson" quality written all over them. I would highly recommend Rey to anyone who is determined to buy a new set of clubs to visit him first before they make a big investment in golf equipment.
Sincerely,
Dwight Ostrosser
Works wonderfully. At D'Arcy Ranch at the Great Northern tournament, on the very first shotgun hole I had to tee off on, was the men's longest drive, which I had my name up on the pin until well past the halfway point when someone finally out drove me by about 10 yards.
Today at the MCA Sylvan Lake wrap up I was within 10 - 15 yards of the longest drive.
The toaster sized head is working great, however do you have a Volkswagen size driver head as I need another 20 yards and I don't think that my understated amateur talent is going to accomplish this. (Just kidding as I do need to weak my game a little more).
Thank you
Bruce Kirkwood
