Golf is an addictive sport. Sometimes all it takes is one good shot, one straight out of the sweetspot, and you’re hooked. Golf can also be expensive, which is something beginners realise the moment they decide to look into buying their first set of clubs and play the game more regularly.
For some, it will be too much of a barrier, especially at a time when our disposable incomes are being squeezed. It can be difficult to justify spending hundreds of pounds on a new hobby, one that you can’t be totally sure that you’re going to stick with (remember when you took up snowboarding for a week?).
We wouldn’t want to advise anyone against buying new clubs completely. If you’ve worked out your budget, you’ve done your research, and you know what clubs are suitable for your game, go for it.
However, if you’re on a stricter budget and you want to proceed with a bit more caution, the second hand golf equipment market is a fantastic option. Here’s why…
Choice

golfclubs4cash, Europe’s largest retailer of second hand golf equipment, has a constantly rotating inventory of 40,000 clubs. In other words, you shouldn’t struggle to find the brand or model you’re after.
Although golfclubs4cash currently has two stores – one in Warrington and one in Edinburgh – there’s another opening up very soon in Milton Keynes to cater for golfers based more south. But if these locations still don’t work for you, the website and app is easy to navigate, and the search function helps to narrow down your hunt for the perfect club(s).
So, just because you’re not in a pro shop or high street retailer that has all the latest equipment, you’re not limited; in fact, the sheer number of listings on any given day means you have far greater choice than pretty much anywhere else.

Affordability
The most obvious benefit with buying second hand golf clubs is the money you’ll save. This is why most golfers buy used clubs, not just beginners. Brand-new golf equipment has become very expensive. Quite simply, new clubs, even those in the mid-price range, are too much of an outlay for a lot of people.
