Wait for them to come out on Ebay????   I am wanting to buy a set of

mint or NEW Cleveland HB3 irons left handed. I have been religiously checking ebay and other sites but these don't seem to be popping up very much. Either people are hanging on to them, or they are just downright rare!!! These are also holding VERY STRONG at 699.00 for the graphite shafts (which is what I am after) at all the major retailers.  Not sure when they will come down in price....or by how much!

Anyways, one online vendor (well known but won't post name) is offering 100.00 off coupon......+ free shipping....and if you put everything on their credit card....interest is deferred for 12 months and have to just pay minimum payment. Only other real negative is they charge sales tax. If I go through ebay, will probably be awhile before a new or mint set becomes available, won't pay sales tax but will have to do shipping charges.....and I have no idea about whether iron is legit or not......plus I would imagine that the bidding will be pretty popular on these so may not get them anyways!!!!

What would you do? it works out to 699 - 100.00=599.00 + 39.00 sales tax!!! Need your help in deciding here!!

Well, finding left-handed clubs in general is tough... finding them in your specifications (whatever that is) is tough too.  If the seller is reputable, and will sell you to your specifications (not just whatever the stock shaft is), I'd suggest going with that.

Do yourself a favor and contact Discount Dan's in Oregon. You won't be disappointed by their prices or their service. You can find their website online but you need to either call them or email them for their prices. It's the only place I buy my equipment.....and I buy a lot!

Hope that helps.

It's likely Golfsmith, they offer deals like this quite often and push their high interest credit card with deferred payments to make it more attractive.

      I’ll just stick to the basics for now - got enough to work on… this is my home practice range. The little clearing in about the center of the photo is roughly 200 yards.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By Clemsonfan ·

      Played Musgrove Mill today. 72.3/155. +9 for 15 official holes as 2 holes are closed, and the par 5 16th plays as a converted par 3. We played the first three holes over to finish 18, and parred 1 and2 amped bogeyed 3. The good: hit every fairway. 1 less than normal for the converted par 3, but the second time I have done that this year. My sand wedge approach on 10 after a monster drive hit the pin in the back left corner hit he pin and spun away to 9’, and I missed the putt.   The great: hit 8 GIR and 7 were inside 10’. Needs work: Missed every birdie putt. No lip-outs. Just struggled on fast greens. Three-putted the par-5 9th with the pin on the back tier and jut missed hitting my approach to the proper level and it spun all the way to the front of the green.
