Why should I test new golf clubs?

By on February 7, 2022

Modern golf clubs promise the world increasing distance and forgiveness and can last a long time, but they can also be a considerable investment. The importance of custom fitting and having them tailored to you to unlock the wide range of benefits is becoming more evident. However, many golfers are still picking golf clubs off shelves or online because they like the look of it, manufacturer marketing convinces them they need it, or they tried one their mate has once and liked the feel of it. The truth is, with any other significant investment such as buying a new car, you wouldn’t dream of investing so much money for these reasons without taking it for a demo yourself and making sure it’s the best option for you, so why not test new golf clubs too?

How Can I Test new Golf Clubs?

Traditionally, you can try out new clubs at a driving range, fitting centre or local golf club through demo days and custom fitting sessions. However, they can overload you with information and give minimal insight into your suitability to the new clubs due to the small number of balls you end up hitting with each. As golfers, we all have off-days, and how well we hit the ball on the day will also inevitably have a strong influence on our judgement of the clubs regardless of how suitable they may be.

At the Golf Shop Online, we are now offering a solution. Alongside our “Ask the Pro” tool, we provide a 60 Day Play Better Promise on selected equipment to ensure you love your purchase as much as we know you will; otherwise, we will take it back. This gives you a whole 60-days to try your new club, allowing you to put it through your paces in all situations, whether that’s on the range or course whilst you’re playing the golf of your life or on those days when it’s a bit more of a grind. Although custom fitting is a great service and initial evaluation, customers now have the option to eliminate the hard sell that can come with this and see exactly what their new club can do in all conditions, away from the manufactured setting of an indoor simulator. For full terms and conditions, please see our 60 Day Play Better Promise blog or contact us, and one of our expert team will be more than happy to assist you.
