Used Golf Clubs Are A Superb Value
For Your Golf Dollar!

Buying used golf clubs will be the single biggest savings a frugal golfer can make! And the bonus is that with these savings you can afford to buy better equipment!!!

If you read the golf magazines or watch golf on TV, you know the marketing of the newest & greatest golf clubs is big business. Each year all the major club manufacturers unveil their new lines promising quantum leaps in performance & distance (I can't understand why we're all not consistently scoring in the 60's with 350 yard drives by now!). While it's a given that the equipment of today is a big improvement of that of 10 years ago, the difference from any one year to the next is marginal.

Remember that state of the art driver you bought two years ago? It's still a great club, isn't it? But there is a huge number of golfers out there buying new equipment every season or two in the continual search to improve their game. The result of this eternal quest is a massive stock of outstanding used golf clubs and golf equipment on the market. And in the last few years, the internet has literally exploded with opportunities to market these clubs.

The first decision you need to make is "what club(s)" to buy. There is no substitute for experience in swinging a golf club, so use every opportunity to check out different models. Borrow your buddy's club at the driving range or go to a second hand golf store (many have hitting areas where you can hit balls). Professionals and low handicap golfers rely on the results of launch monitors, which provide a wealth of information but can be expensive to use unless you are being fitted with a new set of clubs (normally included in the price). Typically the mid to high handicap golfer has not grooved a swing sufficient to get the maximum advantage of a launch monitor, so you may want to spend your limited golf dollars elsewhere.

Excellent sources on the web to identify quality equipment based on real life experience include Rankmark and various golf forums like Golf Rewind . You'll also find a handy club fitting tool at Pinemeadow Golf .

So now you know what to buy, the next step is where to buy. Personally, my first step over the years is to check out eBay. At any given time you will find thousands of used golf clubs available & large numbers of specific clubs available (e.g. over 400 Cleveland Launcher drivers the last time I checked). Wary of online auctions? eBay's outstanding Trust and Safety Program will help to ensure a positive auction experience.

Regardless of whether you check out eBay, you owe it to yourself to explore Callaway Golf Pre-Owned . In addition to having a huge inventory of reasonably price used Callaway clubs, there is an extensive number of other top brand name golf clubs. You literally cannot go wrong here with the selection, shipping, guarantees, return policy, & superior customer service.

Other established and reputable sites to find your used clubs are The Golf Warehouse , Golfsmith , and Golf Galaxy .

Keep in mind that the first time you hit your brand new club, it then becomes a used club, worth much less than just a few minutes before. The frugal golfer realizes how much savings there can be by buying used golf clubs. It simply makes sense!
