Imitation Golf Clubs
Rifling through the pages of the latest Golfsmith, Edwin Watts, or TGW catalog, it’s hard not to dream about walking up to the first tee box and drawing a fancy new driver from your bag. For many golfers, however, the prices of these costly new toys is simply too prohibitive. Take for example the new TaylorMade R5 Dual driver, which not only comes with “dual launch control ports,” but includes a price tag of nearly $600 as well.
There is a more budget-friendly alternative, however. For some, it may seem like the golf world’s equivalent of a shady character peddling imitation watches on the side of the street. However, the world of “knock-off” golf clubs has moved from weekend

Looking for Driver Shafts - Defying Conventional Wisdom
If you read any of the popular golf magazines, you know that low handicappers are told to look for shafts that have low torque and a little more weight for stability. Ultra light shafts with higher torque are supposed to be aimed squarely at slow swing speed players.
So it was surprising to read that Stuart Appleby was using a Fujikura Six in his driver. His clubs were profiled in one of Golf Digest s What s in My Bag features.
The Fujikura Six is a 55 gram shaft with about 4.5* of torque. Not many club fitters would put a player like Appleby in that shaft. You might have even toyed with the idea

Are Game Improvement Clubs Right for You
Maybe you didn’t realize it but there are many different designs for irons these days. Each type is made for a different kind of golfer. Some clubs are for advanced players that need maximum feel and responsiveness from their clubs. Thankfully, others are made for golfers that need a little help and forgiveness from their clubs…and make it easier to find the sweet spot and get the ball up in the air easier. Which type is right for you?
First you have to ask yourself some questions. And be honest now.
Four Approaches to Club Fitting
Thinking of buying custom-fitted golf clubs? Modern technology is revolutionizing club-fitting techniques. Computers have insinuated themselves into this activity, as with almost everything else. But not everyone likes going to someone who uses modern technology to fit clubs. Some players who took golf lessons from me, for example, preferred a non-technological approach.
Basically, you have four different approaches to club fitting. Each has its advantages and disadvantages. Each also provides its own special set of benefits. But before we examine these approaches, there’s one key question you need to answer before deciding on an approach. Will you benefit from custom-fitted clubs?
Used Golf Clubs
If a golf club would go as pricey as $600, I wouldn t really be surprised if I find fellow golfers on the prowl for used golf clubs. After all, my pocket may not be as deep as Arnold Schwarzenegger when he s breaking 100 or Baldwin when he displays his amazingly 2.5-handicap, but I can play without being thoroughly ashamed using those used golf clubs I find everywhere: foundry, old barn, junk shop and over the internet.
Okay, forget the foundry and the old barn, the internet is one good place to hunt hefty deals of used golf clubs in astonishingly good condition. Trade in, barter, reselling, there are nice and accommodating dealers willing to do business to
