After all the threads of "what do you have" "what's the most valuable club" etc. I thought we could see what is the worst purchase you have ever made?
What's your worst purchase?

Nike VRS Driver with an Oban Devotion 6 shaft. I hit it maybe 9 times and sold it for what I got it for. Sounded awful, felt worse... went EVEN worse. Proper bad fit for me.

Cleveland classic woods.
Best looking woods I've owned.
The only problem is they have super shut faces which don't suit anyone with a hook.
I could make them hook round and come back to me. Crazy in a world of adjustability.

Such a scary look for a hooker... you end up twisting the club open in your hand and pointing it out right, but then it does not want to sit at address... yukky

I took a punt on a Cleveland Classic putter (no.3 I think) purely because they were on sale at £30 odd.
Couldn't get on with it. Hated it. It got in my head. I literally missed 1 foot putts.
It still has pride of place in a cupboard.

SLDR Hybrid. Hate it. Hate the feel, hate the noise, even the headcover sucks. Should have bought a 5 wood instead.

New pair of super warm mitts for winter play from the pro shop. Straight out on the course, right mitt in the bag as golf glove was ok for that day. Left glove lost by time I reached the 3rd tee 
Never handed in - think it blew on the beach.
Any Lefties want a single righthand super warm mitt for winter play?

Titleist 909 8.5 degree, matrix ozik shaft. Was custom fit by titleist for it. 385 quid. Sold it 3 months later for 60. It was long, but wow what dispersion!
I had used a 9.5 909 in Florida with a voodoo shaft and loved it, but during the cf the numbers didn't add up. Should have just bought it anyway.

Ditto, horrible and felt like a lead weight on the end of the shaft. Oh, and I have the SLDR S 5 wood, awesome club

Yep, spot on. Feels awful. Wish it didn't have a ridiculous top mark on it, as it'd be on eBay, and I'd be replacing with a 5 wood.

Before I took up the game I bought a Wilson deep red driver with a senior flex shaft for £100 from the 2nd hand bin in AG in Warrington. Guys must have been wetting themselves when I bought it as I clearly didn't have a clue!
Since I have started my worst purchase is a pair of vokey wedges that I barely used and bought on a whim... £200 down the swanney!

The hybrid from my package set is the opposite. Feels like an empty shaft with no head...can't hit it at all!

I was looking at getting one just yesterday. Saw it for sale for £50ish somewhere! The reviews raved about it.

Stupidly bought them with the wrong shafts and lost a bundle.
