As I said in the first post, not everyone can afford to buy brand new clubs every year or two years so this is when people start searching for discount golf clubs. Finding discounted golf clubs can be a challenge, especially when searching on the web. By challenge, I mean finding true discounts on golf clubs. The big boys Titleist, Callaway, etc. do have their own sites where they sell discount golf clubs so you can definitely trust them although I do find some of their "discounts" still too much for someone on a budget. For other sites, you may want to search and look around and see what their prices are and compare them. Always shop around for discount golf clubs. Don't jump at the first deal you see because there is always a chance that there could be a lower price out there for that golf club you're searching for.

As for the newer golf clubs (less than a year old) you may not be able to find a deal lower than $100 from original price. For example, the new drivers from Titleist, the 905T and S, they will run you about $400 brand new. I would say that if you find a discount golf club place that is selling it used for around $300, that would be a good deal. That's still pretty expensive, but it's better than paying the $400 right?

Now newer or more recent clubs don't always mean better. By this I mean it depends on what type of golfer you are. If you are just learning the game and are a beginner, you may not want to pay three or four hundred dollars for a new Titleist driver or putter. Don't buy top of the line until you are ready. Not saying that you can't do it, but it doesn't make sense. Especially considering you if you are new to the game and you're not even sure if you're going to keep playing or get frustrated which a lot of people do. Ever see those TV shows where the parent pays for expensive lessons and instruments for pianos, violin, etc. and the kid quits within one week? Don't spend money like that until you get to that level. A nice set of used clubs from a discount golf club place will do you good. To sum it up, follow these steps:

-Always search for the best deal. Don't go for the first deal you see because there could be better ones out there

-Keep in mind that discounts for newer clubs that are used, will be deals, but still may put a dent in your pocket.

-Buy discount golf clubs that are suitable to you playing ability. If you're just starting, you don't need top of the line. A good used set will do just for you to get the hang of it and to decide if you're going to stick with golf.
