Hello, I was wondering if anyone knows if the set mentioned in the title has serial numbers or not. Thanks alot!

Yes, they do. Just about every major manufacturer puts serial #s on their clubs.

This is weird because I just purchased a set from a reputable seller on ebay with close to 2000 feedback and the set doesn't have any serial numbers. I went to the local Golf Galaxy and their set didn't have any either but when I asked a few other sellers on ebay they said that their sets do have them. So what do you think I should do? Is there any way to check if they are authentic? I've hit with them and they feel nice but now I'm paranoid that they are fakes!

Ive been looking for the exact same set on ebay and this very issue has kept me from hitting "Buy Now" a few times.

Im usually not one to worry about fake sticks but do let us know what ends up happening.

could you maybe post a pic of where on the club the serial # should be? (and where it obviously inst on your set?)

Thanks in advance and sorry to hear about the clubs.

Demo sets for reps and large retailers don't have serial numbers to the best of my knowledge.

If the guy on ebay has 2000 positive feedback, I wouldn't worry about them being fake.

Alright, now I feel like an idiot, but the serial # is on the 7 iron and not the 5. TM did say the 5 iron but after asking around to a few more people, everyone said the 7 and I rechecked in better light and yes it is there. So all that worrying for nothing! Thanks for the help everyone. And to JamesDuncan, I guess the best advice I can tell you is find someone with a lot of feedback if you were interested in buying from ebay, which I'm sure you already figured out. I did take these out to the range yesterday and I hit some very solid shots. I haven't played a lot lately and for musclebacks they are pretty forgiving. You can definitely tell if you don't hit it squarely but it'll fly fairly straight.

have the same clubs and also bought them on ebay, i didnt even think to check the serial, shaft labels are intact and they play solid. Finally Found it on the 5 iron. I've bought 6 or so clubs on ebay and none of them have been fakes that i know of, id just be weary of buying new clubs. Seems more likely to be real if you buy it from a guy who owned and played the club, thats usually what i look for. Then you can get his review on it aswell.

    • Garcia hooked a drive on the second hole, slammed his driver into the ground and snapped the shaft. I don't mind. 🥳
    • Day 364: About an hour and a half practice session. Spent most of it at the range. Did a solid 30 minutes of work on my priority piece, with filming. I think it's improving, but will probably check in on Evolvr to make sure. Then spent the last ~20 minutes putting, working mostly on short putts.

    • Day 79 (19 July 25) - Band rehearsal this morning - got home midafternoon, opted to work more with the magnetic alignment tool with the wedges.  Used it to work on face position at the bottom of the swing arc - followed up with easy pitches up to 50yds.  Seeing better face control and over improved accuracy toward target…session was cut short with pop up rain showers.
    • This is a great discussion. Other parts of the course where there are houses have white stakes and signs. This keeps people from trespassing and hitting shots on their property. There is another county road on the east side of the course that does not have white stakes like the hole I described. I checked the score card and there is nothing to indicate these roadways are OB. I think a county drainage ditch would be considered government right-of-way so it is the peoples land 🤣. But you are in the power industry and know more about those sorts of things than me.
