When you get a new club(s), what do you do with the old one(s)?

  1. 1. If you get a new club or clubs, what do you do with your old ones?

    • Trade them in on the new ones. Makes the cost of new shiny things a lot easier to justify.
      1
    • Sell them on ebay or other sales site. No reason they shouldn't get a new life in somebody else's hands.

    • Keep them, you never know when you may want to go back to an old flame.

    • Donate them to a charity. Two words "Tax Write Off"
      4
    • I only replace clubs which I've snapped over me knee.

Not got enough to have started to sell, but one thing I have learned is not to give up on a new club too quickly. 

I've made a few purchases that haven't seemed to initially work out (5 hybrid, Mini driver, 5 wood) which have at times cycled out of the bag, only to come back in and later do the business. My mini-driver was the best club in my bag this spring, and my 5 hybrid has been invaluable to me the last few months while my iron game has been off - both clubs I'd initially wrote off as bad purchases. 

In future, I'll probably sell when I get a like-for-like replacement, but hang onto clubs that have something different about them.

Generally, at least lately, I have traded several in. I have accumulated too much over the last couple of years and needed to thin the stockpile. I am holding on to my Titleist 915D2 for now, but the TS2 is getting about as reliable, so I may trade it or pass it down to my son. Or it may just hang around as a safety. I have a 52* Vokey that may get traded for something, but I really don't need anything else right now.

    • Day 76 - Pretty sore today, so I opted for putting over my Stack session. Primary focus was on starting line, as my putting has been pretty poor this year. 
    • Been a bit of delay in updates but I needed to come back east as my mom's health has taken a serious turn for the worse. In a 3 day span we learned she had a tumor to she has stage 4 cancer and stopped eating and drinking for the most part. She has had a rough 3 months but certainly didn't think we'd be at the point of setting up hospice for her. My mom was never into any sports really other than following the Red Sox because my dad was a big fan. She always cared about what we were involved in including asking about how golf went.  I have kept up with my 5 minutes of daily practice and will go to the gym here in NH tomorrow morning. Despite the somber nature of this trip my family has commented more than a few times about my weight loss so it's important to me to keep it up. I know my mom always wanted us happy in whatever we did so I'll continue with my fitness journey keeping that in mind. 
    • Day 109- Putting drills on a putting green for 20 minutes. 
    • Day 252: did a stack session. Did some slow rehearsal swings during breaks. 
    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting.
