I have a pile of single clubs including some "name" brand wedges -
Cleveland, Vokey, Callawy, etc., and a dozen putters, Pings, and others.
Fairways, some drivers, a serof Cobra irons, Pings, and more, try giving
those away. Guys here would rather buy new stuff for whatever reason  demo
days are huge here. $400 drivers, $200 putters, $900 iron sets. Amazing! I
must confess that I bought a driver on demo day 3 years ago. I reported on
it here. I sold it to an unsuspecting soul a month later who the sold it a
month after that.

I still have my old Stiletto irons with Mach 22 shafts. Theyre as good
today as they were 20 years ago. I however, am not!
