By: Derek Clements | Mon 31 Oct 2022

ARE you looking to change your golf clubs? Maybe you fancy a set of shiny new irons, or you could be looking for a set of second-hand clubs. This is a subject we have looked at before but things have moved on.

You could, of course, head to your local professional’s shop and seek advice, but there are many options open to you.

Here are just a few:

eBay

There are thousands of golf clubs for sale on this platform, with everything from brand new drivers, fairway woods, irons and putters on offer to a myriad of second-hand clubs. There was a time when you couldn’t be certain that the clubs you were buying were genuine but eBay’s rules now give you complete peace of mind.

Callaway Golf Pre-Owned

Every Certified Pre-Owned club you buy is backed by Callaway Golf, which means you can shop with the confidence that you are getting the best possible quality. For example, they guarantee that the condition of the club you get will match what was represented online. If you disagree, no problem. Send it back for a 100% refund of the purchase price. And all clubs come with a 12-month warranty.

You can try the clubs for 14 days and return them if they don’t suit you. And they will also take your existing Callaway clubs as a trade-in.

This site claims to stock 25,000 items. Founded in 2012, it claims to be the UK’s largest seller of second-hand clubs. You can also list your clubs for sale. It also shares some handy tips on how to spot counterfeit clubs. Every club comes with pictures and a condition check.
