Top tips for selling your golf clubs
If you’re an avid golfer, there’s a good chance that you’ve got a growing collection of used golf clubs, bags and other accessories stashed away somewhere that you no longer use. Whether you’ve grown out of them, upgraded them or they simply don’t suit your needs, don’t let them take up storage space when you could sell them on and release some much-needed cash! Read on to find out how to get the best prices back for your used golf clubs.
How much should I sell my golf clubs for?
First off, you need to know the value of your clubs, and since prices vary wildly online it’s best to do some research. Check out sites like eBay to see how much similar clubs are going for.
Of course, the condition of the club will have a huge impact on its second hand value. Be honest about the state of it, as you will need to manage the expectations of whoever is planning to buy it. If you’re unsure, you can consult our condition rating guide - this is how the professionals at golfclubs4cash rate the condition of a club.
You’ll also need to be sure that the golf club you’re selling is genuine. Again, we have a helpful guide on how to spot a counterfeit golf club that will help you.
What time of year is it best to sell my golf clubs?
We tend to find that the biggest turnover of golf clubs tends to happen towards the end of winter. This is partly because the weather is getting worse and people tend to play less, but also because brands tend to release their newest models at the beginning of the year. Having said that, second hand golf clubs are in demand all throughout the year, so don’t wait until the colder months to release the cash that your unwanted clubs are holding.
How often should I upgrade my clubs?
If you’ve a set of golf irons and drivers etc. that are working for you, then there’s no hurry to replace them as long as they are in good condition. However, you may want to consider replacing the shafts of your favourite clubs to keep them playing their best. Generally, golfers tend to replace their sets every 3-4 years (experts say that a decent set of golf clubs should last you around 300 rounds on average). Once you notice your clubs starting to dip in performance, that’s a good time to sell them on - before they deteriorate to such an extent that they no longer have much resale value.
