When is Black Friday?

Cyber Monday gets, officially underway on Friday 29th November. However, companies often introduce offers to the market early, with lots of golf gear available at reduced rates in the lead up to Black Friday.

Why should I buy new golf clubs on Black Friday?

Buying any kind of golf club can be an expensive outlay. At full RRP, a set of golf irons, or a premium driver, can set you back anywhere between $200 to $2000 and, unless you fancy your chances as a competitive or professional golfer, that is a big outlay for a set of golf clubs.

As many are feeling the pinch from the cost of living crisis and inflation, spending big on golf equipment is not an absolute must, especially now that you can pick up cheap golf clubs from sales events like Black Friday.

For that reason, if you're after a new driver, wedge or putter, it's best to hold out until the Black Friday sales because, as you can see above with some of the early deals before the day itself, there are some great discounts to be found.

How to choose new golf clubs

Price

Black Friday presents a unique opportunity to take advantage of some huge discounts on top of the range golf equipment. Depending on what kind of kit you're buying, the quality of the equipment and how long ago the product was released, its best to be savvy and use the Black Friday sales to your advantage, so that you're not paying full RRP for a set of golf clubs, which can be a costly outlay.

Size and shaft flex

It's good to test out a similar set of clubs before you purchase a set of clubs in the Black Friday sales. That way you can ensure you're getting the right club for your height, swing speed and strength, which are all important considerations to make when trying to find the right club for you. Particularly when buying a driver, it's good to pay close attention to the type of shaft flex you're buying. More flexible shafts are better for players with slower swing speeds, while firmer shafts are more suitable for golfers with fast swing speeds.

Gapping

Particularly when thinking about buying a new set of wedges or fairway woods, its important to not double up on the loft of club you're buying. For example, you may not need to buy a hybrid if you're thinking about buying a utility iron. Similarly, you may only want to carry a lob wedge in your bag instead of a sand wedge. Think about the different clubs you're buying and the distances each will cover in your bag.

Forgiveness

Depending on your experience as a golfer, it is important to buy a set of clubs that you can use. If you're a lower handicap player, it is perhaps not wise to buy a set of the best blade irons that will not offer as much forgiveness as some of the best irons for high-handicappers. For that reason, think about your abilities as a golfer and try to purchase the right club for you.

Where to find the best deals

In the US, some of the best golf retailers include PGA Tour Superstore, Rock Bottom Golf, Walmart and, of course, Amazon. In the UK, the best golf retailers include Scottsdale Golf, American Golf, Sports Direct and Amazon. Amazon can be tricky to navigate (check out our best Amazon Black Friday golf deals) but they're a fantastic retailer for golf watches, lasers, and balls in particular. Other retailers to keep an eye on are the brands themselves so Nike, adidas, Puma, and Under Armour.

Sam Tremlett
E-commerce Editor

Sam is Golf Monthly's E-commerce Editor which mean's he oversees everything E-com related on the site.

This takes the form of creating and updating Buying Guides, reviews, and finding bargain prices for deals content. 

Working with golf gear and equipment over the last six years, Sam has quickly built outstanding knowledge and expertise on golf products ranging from drivers, to balls, to shoes. 

He combines this knowledge with a passion for helping golfers get the best gear for them, and as such Sam manages a team of writers that look to deliver the most accurate and informative reviews and buying advice. This is so the reader can find exactly what they are looking for, at a good price.

Additionally Sam oversees Golf Monthly voucher/coupon content which seeks to find you the best offers and promotions from well-known brands like Callaway, TaylorMade and many more.

Unfortunately, Sam is not a member of any club at the moment but regularly gets out on the golf course to keep up the facade of having a single-figure handicap.
