re: New vs Used Clubs

I would be leery buying clubs off of ebay, there are a lot of fakes out there. My son's friend bought a Scotty Cameron putter for a couple hundred bucks and it ended up being a fake and there are countless stories of this same thing with different brands. I wouldn't buy off of ebay. I don't know where you're located at but most golf stores have a used club section, go there and you can look at them and more than likely try them out on a simulator there at the store. Most golf stores have whole new sets of Callaway, Taylormade or Cobra brands for around $750-$1000, they come with a bag as well. They aren't tour quality but they will be fine for the casual player. You can find new clubs that are 2021 models for cheap as well. Sim2 drivers for $250, whole sets of irons for 4-500 if you want to go that route. The Sim2 driver was matched up with the new Qi10 and there was virtually no difference in distance. Ping 425 driver is a few years old and its very good as well. Like someone else said, facebook marketplace is good, that way you can actually go look at them and see if they are worn out or not. As far a pop goes, irons wont loose pop, they aren't like baseball bats, drivers faces can crack but if they aren't they wil be fine. Irons and wedges grooves can wear down over time, wedges more than irons as more than likely you hit the wedges more often than the irons. Good luck in finding what you want.

There’s many reputable sellers with thousands of reviews on eBay that sell nothing but golf gear. I’d stick to those.
ETA: if there’s a second swing near you, I’d check them out. Can test the clubs out on the simulator.
