callaway x-forged irons

[asianpsuation]

ya my friends brother plays for ohio Wesleyan, and he gets HEAVILY discounted golf equipment just about whenever he wants, but im pretty sure its not free. i dunno the ncaa rules regarding this, but it would sem to make sense that i a school can give out clubs and stuff to its team members.

Sorry to beat a dead horse, but you can hear it straight from the source on this one. I am a college coach (not golf) and its not a violation of any kind to receive free equipment as a student-athlete. A car is a violation, but that is comparing apples and oranges. As one poster wrote, Snowman, I am quite sure you did not pay for your helmet and pads when you played D 1 football. Things have changed in the way that equipment goes out of "style" much faster, so instead of refurbishing it, the athletes are allowed to keep it at the end of the season. Golf and lacrosse are two sports where I know this happens.

for instance my friend who runs track for BU is allowed X amount of throwing shoes, uniforms, warmups for the season.

Correct, and the amount of equipment received is only limited by the school policy and/or contract with the equipment supplier. The NCAA does not limit the amount of sport specific equipment or team apparel that student athletes can be given.
