go far east. the one opposite thai embassy. many 2nd hand shops there. try to bargain bfore you buy.

 

if you are asking, i think you maybe a noob. so my 2 cents, if you want to take:

1, don't buy complete sets with woods and irons and bag, the quality is not great and you will put it one side when you bored and cannot improve.

2, have fun, you may change clubs until you find one you like, keep trying if you want to improve

 

good luck

cobra is good, lots of good models lately.

 

you can go to demos at the driving range. pick the golf publication that is given free, they have listing of the demo days.

 

make some friends, try out their clubs if they allow you to. but don't damage them or they will not be friends anymore. [sweatdrop]

 

commit to one model, after you improve, you will defintely have a preference, then you will either stick with your clubs or want to change.. this one cannot help it.

 

if buy 2nd hand, woods must be no more than 4 or 5 yrs old, many technology improvements last few years. irons and putters, more than 5 yrs still ok, improvements not so much like drivers.

Most of the time, you will not know whether the clubs suit you until you actually used them in the green. I don't fancy Ang Moh brands as I'm of the thought that they are not meant for Asian.

I used mostly Japanese clubs, Yamaha for Irons and PRGR for woods. I also have mizuno, gosen for mid-way and putter.

How do we tell if the clubs are imitation? I've seen before...S$300 can buy the complete set. Btw, I know nuts about golf. But I brought my colleague to this shanghai underground market, he bought the whole set. complete with bag and even trolley. Any brands also got.

 

Whats the "effect" of imitation? Hit too hard and club flew away? [sly] Or too heavy?

I've experienced flying 3-wood club head for a 3mth old Chinese imitation. Very malu cos the driving range attendent had to stop everyone for 30sec to retrieve the went-a-way part [sweatdrop]

Hi all, im lookg for 2nd hand golf sets... any one has any shop to recommend?

 

If you are new...get a beginner's set.

 

Things to look out for in a beginner's set:

 

1. Cord Grip with a spine.

 

2. Asian Spec Graphite Shaft.

 

3. Cavity or Forged Irons with a closed face bias.

 

4. Irons should be bought separately from Woods, Driver, Wedges & Putter.

 

This should start you off on the right track... [nod]

1. You can go to those pro shop located at the driving range.

2. Try out some models, roughly you will know the size of club head, length, weight,..etc you would want to buy.

3. Go to those 2nd hand shop and look for similar type you have tried.

 

Some pro shop @ the driving range got sell 2nd hand clubs.

 

Happy searching!

Unless you know how to see, I heard a friend's friend sold his fake 2nd hand driver to Cash converter. I think the staff dun play golf and offer him higher price than he purchased. [laugh][laugh][lipsrsealed][lipsrsealed]
