Clone Golf Equipment

Clone golf equipment has been with us for some time now, and looks to be here to stay. Unlike illegal copies of clubs designed to trick people into thinking they have the real thing, clone golf equipment is trying to present an affordable version of the top of the line high-priced premium golf clubs of the day. Clone golf equipment makers will reverse engineer a popular golf club and then make enough of an alteration so as to not infringe on a patent, copyright or trademark.

Clone golf equipment has carved a niche for itself, and is very popular with average golfers. I have personally purchased my share of clone golf equipment, and I was always satisfied with the value. Clone golf club makers have to produce a quality product or their reputation will be shot and they will go out of business. There are quite a few quality clone golf equipment dealers online, and they have great selection of clone golf clubs and sets for great prices. For instance, consider a set of Ping G10 irons to go for around $700. You can get a custom fitted set of Ping G10 clones for $150-$170. Now that's a huge difference, and although you won't have the prestige of the Ping name on your clubs, most average weekend golfers don't even have the game to notice a difference, if there is any real difference at all.

Beginning golfers don't want to spend $700 for a set of irons anyway, and would look silly with a super expensive set of clubs and a terrible game. When you buy your first set of clubs, clone golf equipment is the perfect choice. Consider that you could buy a generic store brand for about the same price, or get a set of clone golf clubs and have the benefits of the very best cutting edge technology. You can go to a golf shop where they have a place to try out clubs. Take the expensive Pings and Calloways and Nikes and hit them against the mat to see which ones you like best. Make sure you are fitted for clubs why you're there. Then go online and buy a clone version of your favorite clubs from the ones you tried. Order them in the shaft flex and length that you are fitted for. This is a great way to get a set of clubs that you will really love and it won't cost you a mortgage payment. If you feel guilty for not buying clubs at the golf shop, then buy a putter there.

Clone golf equipment is a big business with a great function for golfers. Take advantage of the great selection and super low prices online. One very reputable company who has been making Ping clone golf clubs for years is Discount Golf Center.
