The three largest online dealers are:

TGW.com

Budgetgolf.com

They are all reputable.

If you are getting new irons for the first time in 20 years, you might want to test them out first. You probably want something in the Game Improvement / Super Game Improvement band (see Golf Digest HotList for ratings).

If you buy some irons online and don't like them, you could be out more than $200 "saved" if  you have to re-fit twice in the same year.

I got my irons through Callaway Pre-Owned, but I had already hit that model with those specs a couple of years before. I went with a more SGI model at first, but then switched to my currrent irons.

Bottom line: If  you get lucky on your online buy, you save money. If you get unlucky and need re-fit #2, it costs you more than just going to a store and getting fitted in the first place. After all, this an event that happens only once every 20 years!

I would definitely test out as many clubs as you can. Maybe test them out at a golf store, or if there is a demo day near you somewhere that would be good.  I bought new SGI irons about a year and a half ago because I was playing with 20 year old knock off clubs. Just having the new technology or in my case just having technology helped immensely.  Just like WUTiger I also bought some of my clubs through Callaway pre-owned and they were just like new for 20-30% off of the brand new price and they play just fine.  I think when my game gets better I might look to get some new irons, but that might not be for 5-10 years.  I would stay away from online shopping unless its from a golf store or manufacturer because sometimes you are not buying real clubs.  Good Luck.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.

      Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026.

      Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
