Here at Golf Club Brokers, we send hundreds of clubs each week, so we have plenty of experience with shipping golf clubs safely. Unfortunately, we’ve received some clubs that were not properly protected for shipping. All too often some of the clubs arrive to our facility damaged, and these scratches & dents are not a result of UPS! The majority of the time, the clubs arrive damaged because they are packed poorly by the sender. We stress the importance of “adequately packaging items” to all of our customers, but what does this really mean? How does one adequately package items?

Can I Sell My Clubs on eBay Myself?
You might be wondering, “Can I sell my clubs on eBay myself?” How hard can it be? Selling items successfully on eBay isn’t as simple as creating a user account and uploading a picture of your iron set. This misconception is common! Selling clubs (or anything) on eBay can be labor intensive and expensive. While it is possible for you to make a few extra bucks by eliminating the middle man, you should consider three questions before creating an eBay account:

- Do I know the true value of my golf clubs?
- Will I be able to compete with professional sellers?

Preparing For Your Round
This golf tip edition is brought to you by “Da Game Breaker,” whose goal is to help the average weekend player play better, have more fun, and enjoy taking that charity contribution away from your buddies on the 19th hole.

Most of us hackers pull into the parking lot, check in, and go straight to the first tee. If we don’t get stuck in traffic and arrive with a few minutes to spare, we stop by the putting green for 3 or 4 quick putts and we’re good to go! Then we use the first 3 holes to loosen up, get the pace of the greens right, and get our mind on the game. By the fourth hole, we’re finally ready to play. Forgive me if I’m wrong, but didn’t we start keeping score after the first hole? Let’s face it, the game starts before you get to the first tee. CONTINUE READING
