John Sawatsky - Fitter
John has experience in the golf industry dating back to 2000 when he began working at Canadian golf retailer Golf Town and worked there for 13 years off and on, while attending the Humber College Professional Golf program. John then turned professional in 2004 and became a member of the CPGA, which opened the door for him to work at many of the top courses in Toronto including Magna and St Georges.
In 2013, John began working as a custom fitter, when the need for properly fit equipment began to take precedence in how the game is played. Fluent in Trackman, Foresight GC Quad, and with more that 7 years of experience using Quintic Ball Roll, John has sharpened his tools and has become one of the best club fitters in Canada. In the last few years, John has become a Putting Coach and Specialist and aspires to work with the top players in the world.

Paul Koubridis - Fitter
Paul’s favourite component to fit is irons, as they make up the vast majority of your bag. Now-a-days iron categories have been sliced up like different sub-genres in music. There’s a ton of new and exciting technology available and different specifications to specialize a player’s set to make a considerable improvement in their game.
His favourite golf related trip was a week spent at The Old Course in St. Andrews, Scotland playing courses such as Carnoustie, Kingsbarns & Crail Golf Society. Aside from golf, Paul enjoys listening to music and attending as many concerts as possible.

Ian Fraser - CEO & Founder
During 8 years at TaylorMade Europe — working in various Club Fitting roles — Ian helped golfers from all walks of life, from PGA Tour Players to complete beginners picking up a club for the first time. Some notable players Ian has worked with include Colin Montgomerie, Gary Woodland, Eduardo Molinari, Chris Wood, DA Points, Paul Broadhurst, Steven Gallagher and Paul Lawrie. In his final role with the company, Ian designed and operated the Taylormade Performance Lab at the world famous Turnberry Golf Resort on the west coast of Scotland.
In late 2011, Ian was recruited by a Canadian Investment Group and was tasked with starting up a company called Modern Golf. In addition to being a minority shareholder, Ian was Head Club Fitter and Chief Technical Officer at Modern Golf. Four fantastic years were spent growing Modern Golf to become a prominent club fitting facility in Canada.
Ian left Modern Golf in late 2015 to begin creating TXG. The goal envisioned by Ian was to deliver the same type of experience to golfers of all levels and to demonstrate that all golfers can benefit from proper equipment that is fit to their requirements and abilities. With this vision of becoming the industry leading experts in club fitting and building, Ian and his team opened their first store in Burlington Ontario. Shortly following that came the opening of the company’s flagship store in the northeast part of Toronto.

Dean Fry - Fitter
The driver is Dean’s favorite component to fit for, because like most of his colleagues, he sees the biggest gains and most improvement for most players. His favorite course played to this point is on the other side of the world, Cape Kidnappers in New Zealand.
It’s appropriate that his favourite course is in New Zealand since much like the island nation Dean once made an elusive albatross. In the winter, Dean can be found on the slopes snowboarding.
