Well, unless somebody is using their name illegally, then I'd say they are real.  http://www.carlsbadgolfcenter.com/

I used to live around the corner from that place and practiced there all the time.  Bought a 975D from them (in person) in 1998 and used it up until about 18 months ago. :)

The nice thing is you can always check out their rating on eBay. In the event of golf clubs you always have to be careful but if they have a 99.8% rating or higher I typically say you are good to go. Plus you have the example of Golfingdad indicating they are legit. I would also try and contact them through e-mail or however you can to ask them questions. If you ask them questions about the club this should eliminate a lot of concerns and also help you know if they are who they say they are.

Hope this helps.

LOL ... I don't think that it's Carl's Bad golf center.  I used to live near the place in Carlsbad, California. ;)

Huh???  This makes zero sense.    The name is "Carlsbad Golf Center" located in the city of Carlsbad, CA.   There is no "Carl".   And it isn't a he...it's owned by a woman named Susan Roll.

And yes, they are legit.  They're an award winning shop with excellent clubfitting and do have an e-commerce part of their business.

    • Day 66: Played 18! Wasn't really keeping track of score, but guessing in the low 80s. Driving okay, iron play up and down, lagging putting really bad. Overall, it was good to get out and play. 
    • Day 41 - 2026-01-30 More backswing and grip work on the mat / net. Also some mirror time focused on trail weight.
    • Day 12 (30 Jan 26) -  Had hoped the men’s group would be playing, but the cold temps and delayed opening kept them at bay. Spent some time on the range working on loading the trail foot on the backswing (focusing on loading the inner portion of the foot and collapsing the knee slightly toward the ball). Learned too much really brought on a left pull.  Easing back a bit, really helped compressing the ball and overall accuracy.  Took it to the course for a practice round, focusing on this small change.  Saw better dispersion across the bag….guess this will be part of the mirror work drills as snowpacolypse 2 hits eastern NC. 
    • I’d go with the Titleist if you liked the look of the blades but were suffering with distance. They should be a little more forgiving than a full blade and still retain some workability. Also remember to consider the shafts each have as this will be a big contributor to how they feel. Clemsonfan is right though… get fit or spend a bit of time on a launch monitor 🤙
    • Day 28: 2026.01.30 Managed to make time for a few swings out back today. Need a proper bit of range time this weekend.
