I'm new to golf and was recently given my dad's old clubs. They are Titleist DCI's Gold oversize, with stiff flex steel shaft. Every time I play with my buddies who have played for a while they tell me how these clubs are extremely hard to hit. I was looking to get some new clubs but wanted to know if I could even get some trade in value for these clubs. Money isn't exactly flowing in right now. Or should I just stick with these.

I would do a search on ebay, and see what they are selling for.

Try selling them on Ebay first, you might get more than trading them in. I recently traded in my Odyssey XG Rossie at a local Golf Galaxy last week and was told by the salesman that it was in great condition and should consider selling it on Ebay; he then proceeded to mark it as "good condition" on the trade-in form, so I didn't get the top trade-in value for it.

Hope you are able to sell/trade your clubs! Good luck!!!

The pgavalue site always seems off to me. Ive checked out clubs before on there, and then on ebay they sold for a lot more money consistently. My old set of clevelands on pgavalue sold used for $200, but then I sold em for almost $120 more on ebay. So id just say look at Ebay for a good idea of what they go for.

I'm afraid I can't comment on the Titleist clubs you have, but if you are having trouble with them I would recommend trying out used Callaway irons. I have Big Bertha X-12's that I bought new several years ago and they are great clubs for a high handicapper. They are very forgiving clubs, although better players say they lack feel. You can find a set pretty cheap on ebay, but you should definately try before you buy. If you have a Golfsmith or similar store near you they will probably have some used X-12's you could look at.

I think the most important thing is to decide if you are having trouble hitting your current clubs or not.

    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
