Take them, along with any old clubs you might have, to the nearest First Tee chapter. I promise that the satisfaction you get will be worth far more than the couple of dollars you'd get from selling them used.

Just bought a Four 5 yesterday and I love it.

That is the best idea I have heard in a long time. I plan on looking this up and taking in an old Ping hoofer and some old clubs i no longer need.

I donate all my used clubs and bags to youth golf thru either First Tee or what ever program is in need. When i was n the pawn business I use to clean out golf bags when they came out for sale. I would take all the golf balls,gloves and misc items and donate them too.

i have one very nice cart bag that really probably has no use at first tee.  i hope that doesn't sound rude, it's just nice and bulky and i can't see any kids wanting it.

the walking bag is a different story.  i've tried CL with no results, but maybe i'll put it on ebay.  it's just going to be a bia to ship.  i was hoping maybe someone would know a place that accepts them as trade ins or something.  a pawn shop might be a good option.

either way i pulled the trigger on the four five.  closeout sale and it was only $120 so i didn't really feel like i had a choice, and my other bags don't completely suit my needs :)

I love this idea, and have never thought about it before.

I have a couple bags, drivers, hybrids, and a bunch of wedges that aren't worth anything in trade in value, and I'm never going to use them again.  They're just sitting in a spare bag collecting dust, this would be perfect for them.  They're not old or crappy looking, I just have no need for them.  I'll have to call them and see where I can drop them off.

      However, have you ever considered using small summer houses for such setups? They offer a great solution for creating dedicated practice areas, especially for an affluent audience looking to enhance their outdoor living space.

      I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.

      Honestly, unless there's something about that rough there that makes it abnormally penal or a lost ball likely, this might be the play. I don't know how the mystrategy cone works, but per LSW, you don't use every shot for your shot zones. In that scatter plot, you have no balls in the bunker, and 1 in the penalty area. The median outcome seems to be a 50 yard pitch. Even if you aren't great from 50 yards, you're better off there than in a fairway bunker or the penalty area on the right of the fairway. It could also be a strategy you keep in your back pocket if you need to make up ground. Maybe this is a higher average score with driver, but better chance at a birdie. Maybe you are hitting your driver well and feel comfortable with letting one rip.  I get not wanting to wait and not wanting to endanger people on the tee, but in a tournament, I think I value playing for score more than waiting. I don't value that over hurting people, but you can always yell fore 😆 Only thing I would say is I'm not sure whether that cone is the best representation of the strategy (see my comment above about LSW's shot zones). To me, it looks like a 4 iron where you're aiming closer to the bunker might be the play. You have a lot of shots out to the right and only a few to the left. Obviously, I don't know where you are aiming (and this is a limitation of MyStrategy), but it seems like most of your 4 iron shots are right. You have 2 in the bunker but aiming a bit closer to the bunker won't bring more of your shots into the bunker. It does bring a few away from the penalty area on the right.  This could also depend on how severe the penalties are for missing the green. Do you need to be closer to avoid issues around the green?  It's not a bad strategy to hit 6 iron off the tee, be in the fairway, and have 150ish in. I'm probably overthinking this.
