I am trying to find a good site or store whre I could get a good deal on a new Full Set. (Irons, Driver, Fairway Woods)  I am looking at getting a set of Rocketballz with the new Bladz coming out the prices are down.

Buying the set in pieces from Golfsmith is a little over $1100 with tax and shipping.

Great Golf Deals has the same set for $985.

Both are more than I really want to spend, I am thinking about waitting till the Spring of 2014 and seeing what I could get then.

Thoughts?

I can't comment on the Great Golf Deals site, but I agree with the others about eBay.  In January, I bought a brand new set of TaylorMade Burner 2.0 irons from 2nd Swing on eBay for $275.00.  2nd Swing is a great vendor and I have also bought off of BudgetGolf as well.  Good Luck with the new clubs

You have to make sure that whoever is selling them is legit.  eBay is loaded with fake clubs from China, if you aren't buying from legit sellers and the price seems really low, there's a good chance you're buying fake clubs.

Very true about the fake sellers and clubs.  The nice thing is that you can usually tell certain vendors on eBay sell A TON of clubs.  Just make sure you check their seller rating and feedback.  Many sellers you'll see has a 100 percent rating at 20,000 or so.  Very reputable but yes make sure you buy from one of those sellers.

I read somewhere that 40% of the clubs selling on ebay are fake so be very careful where you are buying them.  I don't mind paying a bit more if I am assured I am buying authentic gear.  I've bought a lot of stuff from greatgolfdeals and have been very satisfied.  I even had a driver that cracked on me after about 6 months of use and greatgolfdeals helped me get the club replaced under warranty.  the old adage is true in golf gear - it it's priced too good to be true, beware.

If you have doubts about buying from e bay, ask the vendor for the serial numbers from the clubs your interested in, i.e. Taylomade, then call Talyormade to verify them..I've bought from 3 balls, and a couple others, no problems, also check Global Golf, they are a sponsor on TST. and have new, and used clubs.

I had a friend check serial numbers with Titleist and they would not confirm serial #s because they do not want you to buy anywhere other than an authorized dealer. I don't know about other manufacturers though.

I've bought lots of clubs and other stuff from eBay and never been burned. Read the feedback and closely read the ads, and you'll be fine, and save lots of money. It's not hard to figure out who the reputable dealers are. They'll be the ones with thousands of positive feedback and clearly stated, reasonable return policies.

      A Novice Journey to Building a Bag. (Help Appreciated)

      By retoid ·

      First off please forgive me if this is not a proper post or not in the proper location, still learning the ropes around here. Second, it's important that I mention I am very new to the game with only about 10 rounds of golf under my belt, most being 9 holes. Only this year have I started playing 18. That being said, I am hooked, love the game and am very eager to learn and improve. To give you an idea of my skill, the last 2 18 rounds I played were 110 and 105. Not great at all, however I am slowly improving as I learn. Had been having bad slicing issues with the driver and hybrids but after playing some more and hitting the range, I've been able to improve on that quite a bit and have been hitting more straight on average. Irons have always come easier to me as far as hitting straight for some reason. Wedges have needed a lot of improvement, but I practice chipping about 20-30 mins about 3-5 times a week and that's helped a lot. Today I went to the range and started to note down some distance data, mind you I am averaging the distances based off my best guess compared to the distance markers on the range. I do not currently own a range finder or tracker. From reading some similar posts I do understand that filling gaps is ideal, but I am having a some issues figuring out those gaps and understanding which clubs to keep and remove as some gaps are minimal between clubs. Below is an image of the chart I put together showing the clubs and average distances I've been hitting and power applied. For some reason I am hitting my hybrids around the same distances and I am not sure why. Wondering if one of them should be removed. I didn't notice a huge loft difference either. The irons I have are hand me downs from my grandfather and after playing with them a bit, I feel like they're just not giving me what could potentially be there. The feel is a bit hard/harsh and underwhelming if that makes sense and I can't seem to get decent distances from them. Wondering if I should be looking to invest in some more updated irons and if those should be muscle backs or cavity backs? My knowledge here is minimal. I have never played with modern fairway woods, only the classic clubs that are actually wood and much smaller than modern clubs. I recently removed the 4 and 5 woods from my bag as I was never using them and I don't hit them very well or very far. Wondering if I should look into some more modern fairway wood options? I appreciate any feedback or advice anyone is willing to give, please forgive my lack of knowledge. I am eager to learn! Thank you.

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By snapfade ·

      I would think that 3 in a row with the same players might get some behind the scenes examination from the SCGA if they were suspect.  Are there any clubs questioning the results?

      What simple fact? A golf match is not a coin flip — there is a fact for you. I'm trying to help you, and you're throwing out what could easily be called sour grapes. Come with FACTS, not weak analogies. Then you've got nothing. Hopefully they've done a better job of making their case. 😛

      By Big C ·

      It's pretty close. The odds of a 50/50 shot going your way 21 times are greater than 1 in a million!  I guess your point is, that simple fact is not enough to declare these guys dirty rotten sandbaggers. I disagree, but fair enough. I posted it here on the message board to get different perspectives, after all.  I probably won't be digging further into specific scores. I have no dog in this fight beyond a generalized contempt for sandbagging. With that said, it would not surprise if a lot of clubs shared my concern and were grousing about it to the SCGA.
