Category: The Bargain Bunker
Golf doesn't have to be expensive. There are plenty of high quality, inexpensive clubs, balls and other gear. Companies such as Pinemeadow Golf, low priced brands such as Pinnacle and TopFlite and bargain courses can make the game accessible to nearly anyone.
Gigagolf Powermax GX920
The Gigagolf Powermax GX920 packs a lot of golf technology in an inexpensive package. For as little as $121 (depending upon your configuration), you can take advantage of many of the features of the Callaway X series.
Gigagolf says that the thin face on its GX920 maximizes ball speeds even at slower speeds, while the wide sole positions weight at the bottom of the club, producing a high trajectory. The notched rear cavity is designed to move weight low and away from the impact area, providing a high moment of inertia (resistance to twisting), and thus straighter shots.
Like all Gigagolf products, you can customize the grips and grip size, shaft type, club length and lie to fit your swing. And Gigagolf offers a 30 day playability guarantee so there’s no risk for trying.
Pinemeadow Tour 780 Ti Driver
Ok. so you want to jump on the latest PGA Tour trend, and carry two drivers like Phil Mickelson. But you can’t drop a thousand dollars for two namebrand clubs.
You COULD, however, spend $200 and get a pair of Pinemeadow Tour 780 Ti drivers.
The Tour 780 Ti has a 460cc titanium head and a movable weight system that lets you set up the driver the way you want it. Included with the club are two six gram tungsten weights and two two-gram aluminum ones. Placing the heavier weights on the heel will encourage a draw, while palcing them on the toe will cause the club to tend toward a fade. Putting the heavier weights toward the front will produce a lower ball flight, while moving them back produces a higher one.
So with this syystem, you could set one up for a low, distance gobbling draw, while the other is set for a high, accurate fade.
The best of both worlds.
Just like Phil.
Pinemeadow Golf Tour 780 TI Driver
As with all Pinemeadow products, the Tour 780 Ti driver comes with a 30 day playability guarantee, so there’s no risk to you.
Pinemeadow Excel Mid Launch Plus Irons
Pinemeadow’s Excel Mid Launch Plus Irons are designed to bring the technology and benefits of the Callaway X-18 irons at fraction of the price.
The clubs have a large notched cavity area to move the weight to increase the club’s forgiveness throughout the face. They are offset to give the player a better chance of squaring the clubface at impact.
Like all Pinemeadow products, they come with a 100% satisfaction guarantee.
PineMeadow White Polymer Putter
PineMeadow’s White Polymer Putter offers many of the features of Odyssey’s White Hot Putter at a third of the price.
The putter is constructed of stainless steel; Pinemeadow says that the weight creates an evenly balanced putter. The soft white polymer insert is intended, like the Odyssey to offer soft feel and touch. Unlike other low priced putters, the face of the Pinemeadow is milled for flatness.
If you’re a bargain hunter, PineMeadow is a line of clubs that you should consider. Each club comes with a thirty day playability guarantee that minimizes your risk. PInemeadow also has a one-year warranty.
Pinemeadow Oxygen Fairway Woods
Pinemeadow’s Oxygen Fairway Woods are an inexpensive alternative to Ping’s G2 Fairway Woods. Constructed of 17-4 stainless steel, these clubs have a low profile for a lower center of gravity. Better yet, you can get one for as low as $49.
As with all of Pinemeadow’s products, the Oxygen Fairway Woods come with 30 day playability guarantee and a one year warranty.
