Buying Golf Clubs for Less
Posted May 29th, 2009 by adminGolf clubs are essential tools in order to play the game of golf, and golfers understand that having a good set of clubs can dramatically lower scores and improve enjoyment of the game.
The harsh reality is that golf clubs are expensive, and the more game-improvement features a set of golf clubs has, the more expensive they are. This creates a diabolical catch-22. Those players who could use the most help are usually the ones who have less money budgeted for the sport and therefore can least afford to pay the high prices. On the other hand, golfers who take the game more seriously usually budget more money for the game but don’t need those super-game improvement features.
The way to win this game is to stop thinking the way the marketers want you to think. Big name golf manufacturers want you to think that they are the only ones with the new technology in their equipment. The fact is, you can get all the latest golf technology by buying your golf clubs factory direct from custom golf club manufacturers. One such US-based company is Gigagolf. For more information about this company and what they do, here is a Gigagolf review that will fill you in.
The great thing is that you save a lot of money by buying factory direct. The clubs they sell are all made from top-notch components and assembled according to your measurements. That way you get a set of custom-built clubs at a fraction of the price of the big name-brands. Unless you are a PGA tour pro, you will not be able to tell the difference, and even if you are an advanced player, you will love how these clubs play.
The company makes their own line of clubs that stand on their own, but if you want comparisons, those are not too hard to make either. The Ping G10 irons have won Golf Digest’s Hot List gold award for 2 years in a row, and now you can get a set of Ping G10 clone irons for less than $150 a set. That’s an amazing value considering that Ping G10 irons cost over one thousand dollars for a set.
Another popular big name golf brand is Callaway, and they have some of the best selling clubs on the market. Their new X-22 irons are very easy to hit and forgiving. If you have twelve hundred dollars you can get a new set. Or for under $170 you can get a brand new set of custom made clubs from Gigagolf that look and perform just like the X-22 irons. You may want to see the GX922 irons review to see just how similar they are.
Golf is an exciting and fun game to play. Don’t get caught playing inferior equipment just because you can’t afford new clubs. Check out the many different golf club manufacturers that sell directly to the public. You will get some great clubs and save a lot of money at the same time.
