I started a thread yesterday about gppgolf.com and i received a positive response about the website. But what i want to know is how do they sell for so cheap. For instance these Nike clubs ( http://www.gppgolf.com/gppg/content/...ariantId=67522 ) are $500 at Dicks. Is there something that i'm missing here?

They're definately legit so lets just get that straight. Why their prices are so low is something I don't know, nor would I speculate.

So I wouldn't be taking a risk if I purchased these from them?

Oh, idk about this site, that's just my response to why a site would have ridiculous prices.

they also sell em for $279 BRAND NEW on ebay and $299 at RockBottomGolf. Dicks is just overpriced

Yes Dick's is like the last major golf store on the market too reduce anything. I guess it's because they sell so many other sporting goods that they can let clubs set there for a few years before they mark them down.

Unfortunately the best stocked pro shop near me is a Dick's so I do buy balls and gloves from there, that's about it!

Yeah im in the exact same situation. However my Dick's has a very helpful staff so that is a major plus.

Don't knock Dick's. You can find some really good deals there if you are patient. Yesterday I just bought a Callaway FT-i Tour LCG 9.5* i-Mix with Aldila DVS 60-S shaft for $150!!!

This site you are talking about has the same club (non i-Mix version with the stock Ozik shaft) for $399.

I don't know about this particular site, but might these clubs be old? Perhaps they are selling "model year 2007 or 2008" clubs. When I bought my Big Bertha 2008's, people were still selling BB 2006, new.

Right place at the right time I guess. I had never seen the i-Mix stuff in Dick's. Granted, they were already together and did not come with the wrench, but the components were brand new. They had 4 or 5 of them, but only one was the Tour LCG model. I saw them Monday at lunch, went back to the office and researched them. Once I saw what they were selling for other places and then realized my worst case if I hated the club, the trade-in value of that combo at callawaypreowned.com is $100 I figured it was a no brainer. Buy it, play it, if I don't like it I'm going to get a minimum of 70% of the purchase price in trade for it. Crazy.

I've never bought clubs from them nor do I know anyone that has. That's not to say they aren't completely legit. One reason they may be significantly cheaper than Dick's though is the fact that they don't need to carry a margin anywhere near what Dick's does. Dick's has to pay for millions of square feet of retail space whereas on online retailer can work out of his or her garage or basement.

    • It's not dumb. It's dumb to randomly allow a free drop that provides an advantage you don't deserve. And your committee had the option of determining it GUR. Did you talk to them?
    • A sand trap is not supposed to have 3 inches of water in it. To me that’s temporary, casual water. Just like if your ball lands in a deep rain puddle in the middle of the fairway. I would have gladly hit out of any spot in that bunker. I understand that it’s a different rule. I just think it’s a dumb rule. You are penalized because it rained.  Here’s what I think is the dumbest rule in golf, and all sports for that matter - professionals playing for millions of dollars in a tournament have to carry around a little pencil and scorecard to keep their score and sign it, when there are big scoreboards all over the course and on tv. Can you imagine the Knicks losing because they didn’t count their score correctly? Like I said, I love the game, but it’s time to move into the 21st century already. 
    • Sorry to lose you, thx for letting us know 
    • I have to bow out for the weekend. I was only in for Saturday as it was
    • Could course committee have an MLR option to declare this bunker GUR?
