Hamish Blair
National Training Manager (PGA)
I turned professional at 17 and joined Golf Warehouse in 2003, spending years fitting and helping golfers of all abilities. In 2008, I headed to Auckland where I managed several key stores, but fitting golfers and improving their games has always been the part I’ve loved most.
Over the years I’ve worked closely with leading brands like TaylorMade, Callaway, XXIO, Srixon and Cleveland, learning how different equipment can genuinely make the game easier and more enjoyable. I’ve helped thousands of golfers find setups that suit their swing — not someone else’s.
These days I’m back in Wellington with my wife Natalie and our young family, and it feels great to be back where it all began. If you’re just starting out, struggling a bit, or looking to fine-tune your gear, come say hi — I’m always up for a chat and helping you enjoy your golf a little more.
