Most AGCP members will tell you they got their money\u2019s worth in the first month they were members and the rest of the year is a bonus. If you want first hand information why they are members go to our member directory and find a Master or a Level 10 Certified member and give them a call and ask them. We are not right for everyone and everyone is not right for us. Read the Mastermind Principle first. If that is what kind of person you are this is the place to be. We are not a scientific organization, we are a people organization. We seek success, not science. We teach and learn practical ways to be successful and be the best at our craft. Although one of our members is actually a rocket scientist that is not all there is to clubfitting or club making. You have to know people and you have to know a good bit about the golf swing too. We also discuss business, marketing, advertising and pricing for profit. If that sounds good scroll down to Join the AGCP and apply for a membership.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

#1 Benefit \u2013 AGCP Members only Email List<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013 The Members Only Email List is without doubt the most valuable asset in your AGCP membership with its passive learning function. Many of our members tell us they learn more from other member questions and comments than from the questions they ask themselves. Many members tell us they do not participate but reading their email is the first thing they do each morning when they get to their computer. We do strongly recommend that all members get a separate email address for your subscription as there are routinely 50 or more emails per day. We recommend a Gmail account at www.Google.com\/gmail because the Gmail has an unlimited mailbox capacity and you can save and organize all of your emails at Google because we have the email list subscribed to Google and all emails are archived there so you can go there and search for any topic the AGCP has talked about in the past. Other groups have online Forums as we do but nothing compares to our Email list for information and education. Our motto is \u201cThere are no dumb questions\u201d the only dumb questions are the ones that are not asked. We all realize that no one knew everything to begin with and we all continue to learn everyday of our lives about new techniques and ways of doing things so no question from beginner to Master is off limits as long as it is about club making, clubfitting, or how to run our business.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
