I've lurked on the forum for awhile but this is my first post, I'm trying to purchase some RAZR X HL irons and RAZR black driver. Irons are new and driver is slightly used. The guy wants 350, I'm assuming this is a great deal based on the prices i've researched. I'm currently hitting Cobra Pro CB's and a Cobra S3, just wandering if its worth the money to upgrade. I'm shoot around mid 80's to low 90's. I'm pretty stong off of the tee with a little slice, my iron/wedge game is suspect though.

Price seems too low, I'd be concerned they clubs are fakes.  If you know the guy you might be less concerned but I'd still verify the serial numbers with Callaway

Just wondering why you think this would be an upgrade.

That is a great set of irons that you have and a super forgiving driver.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

STAY AWAY STAY FAR AWAY! Those fake as hell.

Do not buy brand new clubs off Graigslist. Asking for trouble there.

Save your money and go to Goflsmith.

Driver: Callaway Big Bertha 10.5* 

3WD:  Callaway Big Bertha 15* / X2 Hot H4 Hybrid
Irons:  Callaway Apex 4-PW Project X 5.5 shafts

Wedges: Callaway MackDaddy 2  52/58
Putter: Odyessey Metal X Milled 1

As Shorty said, the Cobras are better than the Callaways you're looking at, and most likely better suited to your game given your handicap.  HL's are marketed towards beginners and high handicappers that need help getting the ball in the air.  Plus at that price, those clubs are probably fakes.

    • Did the 'club' conform to the Equipment Rules?
    • I was there just for sunday, and it went smoothly. Thanks @Hardspoon for helping in setting this up. 
    • I say this in believing the guy should just pay you and he's a d**k for not.  Do you guys play by the USGA rules strictly? If so, then the claim is valid. It sucks, but it is. Again, he is a d**k for being that nitpicky over it. If he wants to play the game of waiting for you to finish to have his ah-ha moment, again he's a d**k. Though, if the putter is non-conforming, you maybe able to claim that it is not a club?  Just talk to your group and don't invite him back.     
    • Couple of added points.  It was pink and maybe 18 long.  I am 6 1   And he waited until the round was over to say something when he was in my 4 some in the other cart. 
    • I would have paid you. I think it's a reasonable assumption that the extra putter was not in play.  Having said that "Did you declare the extra putter out of play?"  This person seems like a bit of a weenie and he is also setting a dangerous precedent. Let's say he wins next month. Then when it's your turn to pay up, you could refuse. Telling him "I timed you on hole 8 and you searched for your ball and found it at 3 minutes and 1 second. So, you should have taken stroke, plus distance and didn't." You could then show him your stopwatch feature on your phone where you timed it out to 3:01 and say "See."  I actually would just let it go and assume the guy is a weenie. Because doing stuff like that takes the fun out of friendly bets. If he can't afford to pay up, he shouldn't bet.
