As a 12 handicap I’m playing for fun, and I don’t have an equipment contract with anyone.I dont need to meet new people! Post anything golf related!
You just have to get over the fact that used or older components will be part of your game. You can still play the game with decent equipment. So I can build 3 new hybrids for $300, and not the $1200 (yes $1200) that 3 new PING G400 hybrids would cost me. I’ll match them up with new UST Mamiya SMACWRAP shafts and Golf Pride grips. I recently found factory wrapped and unused 2014 Adams Pro hybrid heads online for $16 each. Don’t think I could find a fitter who could improve on that, but I’m sure a couple lessons could. Average 270 off the tee, and I’m very happy with that. I scored a Titleist driver head and a HZRDUS Yellow shaft online for less than $300 total. So what do you do?Ĭomponent clubs, or local and online Buy/Sell ads. So there is no discount cycle any more unless you are looking 4-5 years down the road or the club is a dog like the Triton for $219 or a Cobra King F6 for $199. Something new from Callaway? Epic or Subzero? A mere $650. Even the 2015 version of M1 is still selling for a ridiculous $350! These by the way are ‘big box’ store retail prices. I live in Canada where a new driver requires a personal loan at the bank. Worthy of note is the ‘discount cycle’ mentioned in the article. They are definitely selling some glamour appeal here, but I think it’s more than window dressing. I think the target market is the casual off-the-shelf buyer that may have some sense of equipment offerings, wants higher quality, but wants a lower price point and ideally something that looks good.

The Kuro Kage shafts on the drivers are not the same level either. The hybrid shaft was a UST Mamiya Recoil, but I’m pretty sure not the same model number as the one Callaway is using. They are eyecatching heads, with that same crimson red that Wilson, TM and even Callaway have gone with. The irons are a closed cavity type that I’d say compares to other standard cavity backs, but not on the level of a Mizuno JPX Hot Metal, but similar to a TM Rocketbladez iron. The hybrid was on the same level as say a TM R14 or the Wilson C200. I tried the 7 iron and the hybrid, and I was pleasantly surprised by them. They look and feel about as on the level with the big names as you could expect.
I had tried some TA clubs before that were runny and hollow, and that’s not what these are. I just saw the whole TA-1 roll out at Dicks, and with nothing more than feel to work off of (their GC2 was broken), I have to say, they didn’t seem to be shabby clubs at all.
Just don’t expect to see any commercials or other advertisements for it.Īs rapid discount cycles have all but disappeared, these big box specials provide manufacturers with a means to satisfy the demands of a cost-driven market without compromising the integrity of their mainline offerings. There is a segment of golfers whose primary interests lie in playing name brand gear without paying a lofty price for it. These clubs speak to the reality that as much as OEMs may want golfers to get fit, not everyone will. Often these clubs are powered by several-years-old technology hidden under small cosmetic changes.

With no adjustable hosel, no movable weights, no Jailbreak technology, and a generally understated design, every indication is that X Series, like the X Series 416, is what we’d call a Big Box Special.īoth TaylorMade and Callaway have, from time to time, created clubs specifically for their big box retail partners. Fresh to the USGA’s Conforming Clubs List is a new Callaway X Series Driver.
