Here are a few important factors to look into when buying new or used golf clubs. It is important that you do a considerable amount of research before actually making this all-important purchase.
Fit – the golf clubs you purchase should fit you well. This should include the length, swing weight and the lie. Other factors to consider are the kick point, shaft flex, MOI and shaft material. Since golf clubs are made for players ranging from beginner to pro, it is important that individual handicaps be considered as well.
Seller – golfing equipment might be priced better online, however it lacks the all important ingredient when being purchased: the experience. When buying golfing equipment online you cannot see the equipment, touch it or even try it out. To make the best of this drawback, online sellers will give you a money-back or exchange policy.
Shipping – you might find a really great deal online, but do not forget to check on how much the shipping cost will set you back. Otherwise, you need to keep looking online. Some online stores offering free shipping or discounted rates on shipping.
Manufacturer Replacement Policies – before you buy a new set, ensure that you know what the replacement policy is like or if it exists at all. If it does, it could vary. Some policies require you to send back the malfunctioning golf club first, while the others will just send you a replacement and then request for the damaged club.
