Buying Used Titleist Golf Clubs


Titleist golf clubs are most probably the best golf clubs in the market. Some golfers may disagree with this statement and have their own personal list of bests. In general however, most agree that a Titleist is a must-have in your golf bag.

For a beginner or a golfer on a budget, a brand-new Titleist may be a bit too much. A Titleist can be costly and a novice golfer should play at least a few months to determine whether or not the game is for him.

If you’re decided on buying a Titleist, used or pre-owned Titleist golf clubs are a good option. Some golfers are hesitant about buying used clubs. The great thing about Titleist is that they are usually able to retain quality longer than other models.

This doesn’t mean however that you should grab the first used Titleist you see on sale. Like all golf clubs, be it pre-owned or brand new, it is always best to carefully examine each club before purchasing it. This avoids wasting your hard-earned money and saves you from regret once you are on the greens.

There are many places to find used Titleist clubs. Its best to shop around and visit several different golf or sports stores before making your final purchase. Visit golf websites and online shops. There are hundreds of websites online that specifically advertise and sell used golf clubs. Ask your golf buddies or neighbours if they know of anyone selling their Titleist. Some golfers visit swap meets and garage sales and are able to find great deals on used clubs.

Once you are able to find a club, take the time to carefully inspect the grip, shaft and club head.  When checking the grips, look out for cracks, worn areas and splits. Re-gripping the clubs doesn’t cost much but if you plan on buying several clubs, the costs can add up to a hefty sum. Thoroughly check the shaft for bends or cracks. When inspecting the club head, make sure the groves are still there and have well-defined edges. Check for signs of extreme wear and tear.

After examining the club, take a couple of demo swings. Check to see if the length and weight of the club suits you. If possible, ask if you can practice hitting a few balls. If you’re at a garage sale, you can take a few swings on the front yard. If you’re at a shop, there may be an in-store practice nets.

Your dream of owning a Titleist golf club is well within your reach. Take the time to look and ask around. Pretty soon you’ll be at the course swinging shots with your “new” used Titleist golf clubs. http://www.todaysgolfer.co.uk/
