Hey all, I'm visiting Atlanta from New Zealand from Saturday 6th April through to Wed 10th and am looking to play a few rounds with a friend visiting from the UK. As I'm not able to bring my clubs I'm wondering if anyone has a decent spare set, or is out of town for a few days leaving their set behind that I could borrow for a few days. It's also looking very expensive to rent at each place too. I'm a 12 handicap player so will obviously look after the clubs and give them my upmost respect. We're staying out at Camp Creek, west of the airport but are able to travel around Atlanta to pick some up and drop them off afterwards. Any help finding a set to borrow for a few days would be very much appreciated. Thanks for reading.

Just rent at the course. Most area courses near atlanta have nice rentals. Can't imagine someone lending you clubs for less than $50 anyway.

I would imagine there is a PGA superstore in the Atlanta area. They will rent you a set of clubs for about half of what it will cost you at the course. You can sign up for the players club for free right on the spot and they will actually let you demo 2 drivers for free for 3 days to take and try on the course. If there's a PGA superstore near where you are playing, look into that option.

    • Fantastic selection! And very little driving between them. Fingers crossed the weather is good to you.
    • Day 20: 2026.01.22 Hit about twenty balls at the range. Quietly pleased with how the changes are bedding in, surprsingly consistent ball flight. Hoping to film over the weekend to capture new movement.
    • You might also consider a tune-up lesson. Check and see if anything in your set-up or basic swing is holding you back. I have been playing for more than five decades, but on occasion I've had to make swing tweaks due to age, loss of flexibility, etc. You don't have to reinvent your swing. A couple of static set-up changes might really help out.
    • Good advice. In general, you want to take whatever weight you are lifting to a couple of reps before failure, for muscle growth. There are other tactics for PT related stuff. I would trust your PT person.  For muscle growth, you can go like 30 reps to failure. It is tougher to gauge. Also, it takes 2x as long to do the same number of working sets per week if you are doing 15 instead. It is way less efficient, but your case is special because of the injury/aggravation to the hip. 
    • Several years ago I got paired with a twosome of golfers, one of which had a maybe 5-year-old son with him. The kid had a putter and a 7i with him, and on some holes he would drop a ball near the green, chip on, and putt. If the kid started to get distracted, the dad would ask, "Do you need to rest?" The kid would nod yes, and then take his dad's seat riding in the cart for a couple of holes. It was a slow day, and the kid was polite and friendly. We got through 18 just fine. (If it had been a crowded course day, I'm sure it would have been less pleasant.)
