Off the wagon....

[ualtim]

I fell off the wagon again.







More clubs.







More Heads.







More Shafts.







More information when I get the stuff.











Is that how you are supposed to do it, Rock? :laugh:

Pretty close.

Hints? (Try and be as vague as possible. This drives 'em nuts. )

OK, I'll bite.

Ping i10's with AWT shafts.

I saw the golfsmith friends and family sale starts on thursday - not planning to go too crazy, but might be interesting

 

[chemboy2]

So I tried this approach a while ago myself (a long while ago) and discovered that no gives a rats arse as to what is going in/out of my bag...

With that being said, any hints?

Where is this said sale? Also how do I get some friends?

I doubt he picked up either of the two Snake Eyes shafts or the 12 pak ferrules that seem to be the only items available in the GS sales these days.

What an utter joke that is. 90% of their stuff is not available at the sale price.

My guess is GS is going into the shitter.

you're right - the fine print is 20-30% - better than the typical 10% I suppose - at least this is right before the season

here's the link though Golfsmith®

 

[BladerHater]

Never buy any golf clubs at golfsmith. They are fine print advocaters and always mark up stuff for sales. Their prices on used clubs are out the roof and the sales associates are complete idiosos. I know its personal opinion but I am not the first person to feel this way.

 

[Rockford35]

I hear that GS's used sales and the huge drop in their Snake Eyes sales over the years are killing them financially. Rumour around here is they are barely breaking even these days....

[ualtim]

Yup, some stuff from GS. (2 heads at 51% off , shafts regular price.)


One club from e-Bay.

They aren't even breaking even, my buddy who is in the big box golf retail business says that they are in some serious financial trouble, almost $100 million in debt.

Nope. Still have not hit those and I am still quite happy with the Eye 2+'s. Besides, I am running out of room to store all my irons sets. :laugh:


No irons in the purchase, but I am still debating on getting the Eye 2+ SW and LW at some point down the line.

My original post had all the details in it at the end but I could not post it without an error so you guys get stuck with this.


No irons were purchased. No driver was purchased.

Agreed, their sales have not been as good recently. The heads I picked up were 51% off as I beleive they are headed to closeout. I have not bought a GS head at full price for myself in years. I wait for the sales/closeouts, but those opportunites are not as good as they used to be.
