I just ordered a new cart bag from Golfsmith. I went with last years Adidas Prevail cart bag in red. Sharp looking bag and seems functional. The bag was not supposed to ship till 04/27/11 but shipped yesterday and arrived today. Now when I opened the bag on the tag it had 3 different prices none of which I paid. 1st price was $149.99, than there was an orange price sticker with the date of 01/04/11 and the price of $109.97. Than there was another orange sticker with the date of 02/22/11 and price of $49.96. I contacted Golfsmith via email to ask for a refund of the difference. I paid $119.99 and had a 15% off free shipping code, so it came to $101.97. Should I be refunded the difference? It is marked as clear as day that it is or was $49.96. Why would they ship this item with this price on it when they could have just removed it. Seems like they were just lazy not to remove it. Would love to hear what you guys have to say about this.

I'm not sure about Golfsmiths practices, but my guess is since it was an older model bag, and they offered free shipping they shipped it out of a local store that had one in stock to minimize shipping costs, which is also why you got it so quick.  The local store probably had it on clearance to reduce their inventory, didn't sell it, and never took the old price tags off before they put it in a box.

My guess is they won't honor the price since the online store is separate from the local stores, and you agreed to pay the price they listed, but it's worth a shot.

Yeah, newtogolf is probably right... but, i think it's worth asking about and they might show great customer service and give you a credit for their site.  Keep us posted.

While it's certainly worth asking them to refund the difference in the end you should [b]not[/b] feel upset or disappointed if they don't.  You found a bag you liked and you certainly felt it was worth $102.00, which is what you paid.  If you end up paying $102.00 for it then you got exactly what you wanted!  Enjoy the bag; forget about what it cost or "should have" cost.

update: Golfsmith is going to refund me $56. This bag is now a ridiculous deal $46 shipped for a 14 way cart bag. Awesome.

      Eh. Do your hips back when they swivel like he demonstrates? Or do they tend to go forward as they rotate?

      Uh, that's not what happened. I'm highly dubious about how your results would work going forward, you showed nothing about your setup, etc. I trust the physics (your 3 dB over a meter is off substantially) and sound engineers over claimed "good" results.

      I actually really like the video. I feel like it speaks to my own issues of hip movement (lunge towards the ball). I think he also presents a very good and detailed explanation of the why from biomechanical perspective, not forcing the clubs in position and instead let it work a proper planar path by providing it space (hip swivel) the most efficient way. As far as tech speak/catch phrases etc., that some may not like, it doesn't bother me and even necessary. For eg., the spiral line sounds like it is the same thing as a kinematic chain, but directionally specific along with the set of muscles joints it engages. If the club is not dynamically aligned to the 'spiral line' it will force other compensation like locking joints, etc. That's simple logic, and from my perspective not brought up enough. Good stuff.

      A Decibel Meter as a Free Speed Meter?

      By p1n9183 ·

      Thanks! it was a fun experiment and I hope is going to be useful for people that like to go down the rabbit hole like i do but can't afford a launch monitor or even a cheap speed meter. Of course I'm glad the results were positive, even better than I spected, but it is funny to see that only you took the time to post after the results were given, the only one in the thread that was open minded about the idea. The other posters that daily brought down the idea without proper arguments or proof, disappeared after been confronted with actual data. Maybe they are testing this by themselves and are in shock that they are getting the same results as me!

      It would certainly be a good thing if more people would at least give walking the course a chance, but "great crime" is awfully melodramatic.  On the Faxon end, I think he's probably just speculating that these guys might be new to golf. That position when teeing up the ball normally suggests that. It shouldn't be too much of a surprise that newbies would be riders.
