Fore sure ShopGirl can find great deals on golfing gear Archive BDN Maine archive BDN Maine
If you not a Frank Zappa fan, you probably have no idea what I talking about. But if you play golf, chances are, you can empathize. Golf makes a fool out of the best players some days,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and I am not exactly one of the best.
I don even have a handicap. I don think the USGA 40.4 maximum is enough to bail me out. But I love the game. And I willing to try anything that might help. Except cheating, because that would be a major breach of etiquette. And frankly, even if I can master the game,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I have to have some standards.
When it comes to gear,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], my standards are pretty high. After playing my first six years worth of golf with a starter set of Wilson clubs from Target, it was time to upgrade. For under $150 for the set and a bag, my Wilsons served me quite well. And the site doesn just feature Callaway. All high-end clubs are fair game.
I couldn care less if some duffer in Palm Beach took my clubs out once before they made their way into my golf bag,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
When you can score a Cleveland driver the size of a canned ham for a mere $32, why split hairs? The same could be said for my hybrid. And my pristine Cobra irons? A steal. ShopGuy ordered a King Cobra offset driver and fairway woods for me and spent less than $100 for the set. Cha-ching!
I be thrilled to say that the clubs have improved my game, but I be lying. Well,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], my new driver did add serious distance to my tee shot,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but I make up for it in short-game ineptitude.
At least I can look smart in the Adidas golf skirt I scored at Marshalls for $19.99. You can make fun of the way golfers dress all you want, but these days,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], there are plenty of stylish options from Lilly Pulitzer golf skirts to Vera Bradley golf gloves,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Nike performance tops to Sun Mountain sweaters. For collared shirts, I recently popped into the Brooks Brothers Factory Store in Freeport, where I found performance knits for $17.99. Usually,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I shop Old Navy for the best deals at $8 apiece, how can you go wrong? Ditto for shorts long enough to not get you kicked off a nice course.
If you looking for something a little sportier,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Dick Sporting Goods is the place to go. I like the Lady Hagen skirts and the North Face zip-neck fleeces. I also bought my shoes there on clearance, but you can also find deals at Super Shoes. Oh,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and if you hit it right, Marden is a treasure-trove for golfers great bags,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the occasional driver, and turquoise printed pants from Ann Taylor that scream club! year, a friend of mine made the mistake of buying a discount pushcart at a chain retailer. Don do it. Hers lasted approximately two rounds before its shoddy construction drove her crazy. It better to spend a little more on a well-made model with inflatable wheels. I got a mid-range Bag Boy at Dick but I also recommend the sturdy Sun Mountain carts (from time to time,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you can find them new on eBay for a reasonable price).
Oh, and I have to admit: I got sucked in by a set of pretty clear-coat golf balls in assorted colors. They are all the rage right now,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and they were on sale. But they didn do much for my game,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and the blue ones are next to impossible to track. What next? Green balls?
So I gave them away and bought a set of Nike Karma balls. Are they pretty? Yes, in an understated way. And no guy is ever going to confuse these with his Pinnacle Gold. But the best part is, they seem to be a little more forgiving than the Slazengers and Titleists I tried. Maybe it truly is Karma.
