Just been in and got offered £192 for a set of TaylorMade Rocketballz irons which have been sat in the garage for over a year, only problem is I don't really want any clubs at the minute. If anybody is interesting in purchasing the irons so I get some cash to spend on non club items, and they get a deal to get some money off some new clubs Id be interesting in chatting to them.

Went in to our AG today with my wife who wanted a new driver. She was trading in a set of ladies big bertha's from 2008. Unfortunately, the site they use for their process does not list ladies clubs! They would only give her £65 for the 6 clubs as the nearest looking ones on the pga site were 2002 mens ones. We found a picture of hers on golfbidder but no prices there either as they didn't have any for sale, just a picture which did confirm they were 2008 clubs. We took the offer as she liked the driver but we left feeling a bit cheated.

After thinking last night about the offer for my irons, I went back in today to get a hybrid. Something I can rely on when I need to recover from a poor shot. I ended up with a TaylorMade M1 4 hybrid. Was hitting it really nicely on their machine, apparently getting an average of 230 yards so it will also really help me out with getting onto some of our par 5's in 2. All for the nice figure of £7

That seems overly long for a 4 hybrid.

You've not seen Steve hit a 4 iron then.

No. I can only dream of hitting those distances. That only just short of driver length for me. Good on him

I seem to have a reputation for being a long hitter! For some reason I seem to be able to hit my irons a long way, I'm using Taylor Made RSI tp, which have more conventional lofts so they aren't pure distance clubs.
It was interesting as I had a callaway driver fitting yesterday, where I was hitting the big Bertha fusion with the slightly shorter shaft 280, with the longer shaft in it I was quite wayward. I was still generating the same club/ball speed with the shorter shaft though with a smash factor of 1.49

OK back in again tonight there lol
Picked up well ordered a tmb 4 iron price matched to 149.99 got 50 for my 48 588 2.0. The 588's cost me 50 each on a promo last year.
Also possibly the best trade in yet. Got 90 for my g20 and picked up a Callaway alpha 816 for 179.99 cost me 90 to switch but heres the good part. Had to ring the HQ to get the price match as the ticket was 399.99. Only one in store had been laying there under the radar front row centre.
Value of the alpha 816 was 179.99 well what I paid for it but on the pga value its worth 220 lol. Going to try it out if not feeling it will trade it up for a ping g driver. They are 299 so 80 quid on top of the alpha now will see me with a ping g for 170 total in cash terms

In yesterday and ordered some jpx 900 forged, they gave me 386 for my RSI TP, I have to say I thought that was canny! Paid %00 for them about 14 months ago or so.

Got them to price match on some Cleveland 588 TT irons (£299 at AG, but only £199 at Onlinegolf) and traded in my eighteen month old Wilson D200 irons in a straight swop.

Don't know if it's the norm for the PGA website but I have noticed a couple of values dropping, that said I still managed a good deal today.
Traded my G Driver that was the wrong spec for me (std 10o impulse buy) changed it for G SF Tec 12o.
Traded my G30 Driver for a G 4 Hybrid.
With the buy 2 woods get 10% off I had a nett spend of £75 :thup:

Went yesterday with my putter Nike Method Matter B2-01 and was offered 40 pounds. When checked Pga.com value website trade in price was 38 dollars.Double of that works around 62 pounds which i would happily accept but 40 seems a little bit low for putter that cost me 120 6 month ago in American Golf.
