Codysauc Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 I recently went to the local DI (a thrift store we have here in the West) and found some great clubs. My set is pretty complete, but I added them to a set I have for people to borrow and things like that. For about 25 bucks I got: A Taylormade RocketBallz Hybrid 3 - $5.00 A Taylormade R7 3 wood - $5.00 A ping Craz-e putter - $5.00 A Taylormade Rossa Mezza putter - $3.00 It was rare, because usually I just find random irons from the 70's and obsolete woods. I keep checking though because sometimes I find a unique putter or something. Anyway, I'm curious. What's the best thing you have found at a thrift store or garage sale and how much did you pay?

RexS Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 I picked up a decent Titleist bag for $6 at Goodwill a while back, gave it to a neighbor who is starting out as a new golfer. But, I haven't seen any clubs worth picking up yet, of course there was nothing even close to what you got, just old junk. Nice haul man!

PlaidJacket Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 I used to do this some many years ago. I never did find anything of collector value. Mostly a bunch of old beater junk where the asking price of $4 was over priced. I certainly wasn't going to play or refurb any of that stuff.

TSauer Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 Found this last year while I was antique shopping with the girlfriend. Had a couple booths set up outside and this gentleman said $15 and it's yours. I told him I only had a $10 bill and he said that'll do. Probably the best $10 I've ever spent. Even though I'm a lefty.
