That is totally different........

$2 for a 12" sandwich, large fries and a soda, might be about cost only......

I would guess shipping costs for 4 hybrids to be at least $15 ....... besides that $1.75 for a hybrid, can about only be a mistake ...... even throwing them in the wastebin makes a better margin......

If you're looking strictly at the one sale itself, you're absolutely right.

Suppose the ad hadn't been a mistake, and they had sent him the clubs at that price.  You want to be he - and a sizable fraction of whoever he tells about the deal - watches their ad regularly?  I bet they sell some things at a good profit after the fact to some of the people watching their email blasts.

Yep if I would have been the shop, I would have updated the mistake, but still have sended the hybrids or I would have contacted the buyer that something went wrong........

...and so this adventure is about to end.

To recap.

I purchased a set of hybrids from the website of Golf Outlets USA.

As it turns out, yes it was a mistake.  However, Dick...i mean Gerald ...LISTEN UP>>>>they declined to answer my e-mails after the refund....LISTEN DICK>>>>>that is how thy do business...I found reviews on the internet of this action with other customers.

DICK!  I filed a complaint with the BBB of California.  Communication opened and after negotiations they sent me a FREE hybrid.

DICK!!!! FREE!!!!!!!!!  Better than 1 cent!

Now get this-the freakin shaft was put on backwards!

I now have a new towel rack!

Meanwhile at Sports Authority I pickued up a killer 5 wood....I think it's the one Elin used!

Swing Happy My Friends!

The print, which ID's the flex, the make, etc which is on the front of the shaft, is on the back.  No biggie, it won't change the swing, but just sloppy work in assembly.

Perhaps I should have used  "on the back side of the shaft." (see pix to the left)

Swing Happy My Friends!

    • Yeah.  As far as remaining still, I was thinking body rotates around the spine like an axis.  Instead of pivoting, some like me, sway, come off that axis, leave weight on back foot, etc.  
    • I apologize on behalf of… idiot men. Sorry about that. Next time, tell the guy to shut up. 😛  Day 553, May 8, 2024 18 holes from the whites with @rwolfe. Windy AF today, but hit some good shots. Slid back a little from where I was the previous two days, but… I can get it back. Made a pretty nifty birdie on 12 from some pretty odd places. 😄 
    • The angles look fine. Get as much light as you can on the area — you want the highest shutter speed you can get. Less blur.
    • Snap @ Tour Spoon! Birdied 11 yesterday. Hit a poor iron ,stopped on edge of bunker , pitch with my lob wedge landed about 6’ away and went in. Only 12 & 14 to go, long par5’s into the prevailing wind. Might be waiting a while although I did have about 15’ on 12 after the birdie on 11, didn’t miss by much.
    • Tested the Maxfli TourS yesterday. Compared to my former ball, the Titleist AVX, I got an extra 10 yards off the driver and half a club (5-7 yards) off the irons. The combined extra yardage from the driver and fairway wood meant that on par-5s where I usually hit an 8-iron third shot, I hit a PW. It's just a smidgen softer than the AVX and seems to spin well. Some of the reviews indicated a low ball flight, but I did not notice it. I also did not observe any problems with the paint quality, which was an issue with previous Maxfli models up to and including the U series.  My previous round I tested the Bridgestone E6, a two-piece ball with a different cover. It was OK; the same distance and feel as the AVX but with less spin.
