When it comes to buying golf clubs from ebay you have to very careful that you buy the right golf clubs for you, you buy the best golf clubs, the best forgiving golf clubs, the best budget golf clubs, even the best golf clubs of 2024 may end up being the wrong golf clubs for you if they aren’t in your specs. you can’t neat going and getting fitted for new golf clubs, golf club fitting is so important to making sure you play your best and most consistent golf. in this video we look a golf club bought from ebay which I think could be the biggest mistake anyone has ever made in buying golf clubs from ebay, should he have bought golf clubs From Facebook market place? buy golf clubs from gumtree? maybe even buying golf clubs from your local charity shop … let’s find out and let’s do it now!
now I’ve seen some wild golf purchases in my time as a PJ professional this one might well take the biscuit it was a late night eBay purchase it could go down as the worst in history Gaz how are you I’m good folks so we’re going to talk about this a little bit we’re going to well talk about in today’s round we’re going to have a quick match couple of holes here at wly Park he’s found his glasses as well so there’s no excuses now is there there’s no excuse but talk us through the idea behind this as we play around cuz we’re going to get it out down on the green that probably spoils alert a little bit as to what club it is but you’ve got actually a really good deal on it potentially if what you think’s right potentially yeah I mean these retail at 200 to $250 in the US the box was a bit short mate is it and I paid 50 and it’s brand new yeah let’s get te off and then let’s discuss let’s discuss eBay purchases in general because basically you you’ve got this habit of waking up in the middle of the night and spending money you make eBay pctures don’t make them at 2 to 4 a yeah I think that’s a golden rule right let’s get teed off first all guys we’re testing loads of clubs today as well so make sure you subscribe if you want to see some very interesting Golf Club reviews and Gaz I’ll let you lead us off I do need a golf ball though where’s my I’ve got my golf balls away I think

is it Nordic Iceland it’s not is it he gets around that boy he gets around strike that’ll do nicely open her up for an attempt at birdie and this is what we’ll be using guys comment below what do you think this is uh I don’t want to give you a dress away but it’s on the golf club isn’t it yeah and Herms delivered it so they delivered it like that I think it’s a brand that nobody will have heard of yeah I so it’s a four-letter brand and it could be I’m not going to say it it’s a four letter four letter name so guess what it is if you can and it’s a us brand it’s a US brand they make Putters and Putters only do they not make wedges no specialist in Putters funny story when uh a subscriber commented on one of your videos about it and you thought they were being aggressive didn’t you I thought it was Tak we not going to say any further yeah yeah but he said why did you buy a SEO why didn’t you get this Putter and I was thinking is he trying to insult me is I Googled it and it were actually yeah it were an official brand well I’m going to do a little bit of research on this brand I’m going to put in the video as well cuz we’re going to try and make it as serious as possible we’ve done a review of it over on gaza’s channel and it’s the least serious video you’ll ever watch I’m not sure it’s the it’s probably one of the worst videos I’ve ever done no I was thinking more it’s harsh because that’s someone’s brand isn’t it it’s someone’s product I think you’ve bought the worst specs in the world yes is what I’ll say you’ve like you’ve woken up you’ve had a nightmare youve looked at your screen time and gone on I’m going to buy that I literally did have a nightmare and that’s why I W a bigger night there wome insect sa right two good t- shots let’s see how close we can get to that flag down there sorry I didn’t mean it it’s all right air ambulance is out ready for gas in a minute if you wear glasses guys getting comment give stick oh tasty could be a birdie playing for lunch aren’t we yeah 10 what you got 110 110 I can’t of how close that’s finished actually almost didn’t need to use it guys you might not need putter yeah are you still contemplating putting this in the bag what putter yeah I would never contemplating that it was just to raise awareness for a brand I’ve never heard of really that’s how you know where it started from right I thought you’d bought it to potentially try and put it in bagz but again when we talk about the specs we’ll um yeah all will be revealed oh that’s lovely just get up a touch took a nice bounce checked a bit that’ll do you mate that’ll do you so they stop doing the Cajun chicken so I don’t know might be like a tuna sandwich with fries or something does it do any like like a cold and hot combination cheap food chip boys are expensive mate I think it’s actually g a little bit further on maybe a chip buty it is we’ve both gone to get our own Putters out there and then realize so guys do you want to reveal what it is it’s called a bell get in the comments if you’ve heard of that brand I never have and I’ve heard of most golf Brands it’s made from 303 stainless steel so it’s obviously do we know what h306 stands for I don’t h36 I think that’s just the model oh okay but that’s what all the top Putters are made from into that 303 yeah it is realistic one thing I’ll say is if you were going to spend full money on it like none none of this is engraved in it’s all like almost stickered on so I’d be a little bit upset by that and the head cover is not great either like the head cover’s a bit like the the bees coming off of the the balant like there look but you’ve not paid for have you so you’re not bothered I’m not bothered no and I just feel like if you see the range of Putters they actually offer the longer range Putters as well like Brew mandal Putters that I’ve not seen for years yeah and then like you know body what do you call them the Midland ones belly Putters belly Putters the thing is with that we’ve not seen them for years cuz generally they are banned now aren’t they but you can still use them without anchoring obviously so a lot of people may well be doing that he’s looking for an UTS you just can’t get them front Major Brands these days can you no well they don’t bother because it’s probably a waste of the time small Market yeah and it’s all about the waiting comparable to the length of the putter so that being said do you want to stand at the ball and we’ll discuss the length of what you’ve bought yeah well is your 6′ one are you this is where you need to make sure you read the description guys if you’re buying off eBay middle at night I was I kind of thought it’ll be 34 in 35 in standard length you’re not expect it to be 32 and a half inch are you 32 and a half Ines when I first saw it I nearly choked two put from me would be incredible it’s the U yeah that’s the thing so the toe was like massively up in the air there you you’ve got the option of like up very upright vertical nearly that’s it seemed to come off the face right that to be honest ah it might uh might be a dead sheep that sick all right shall I finish it it’s still you mate so yeah we’ll just keep the order if you want no you needed today this this would mean a lot to me if it went in it’d be worth 50 Quid if it went in just to keep Robinson quiet well until a whole the birdie well have a go to the bird I have tried this already and don’t know the title kind of speaks for itself a bit what’s the title you don’t want to know but you know what’s interesting like we do a lot of golf club I’ll give you that one before you miss it we do a lot of Golf Club reviews and I think it’s really important that we do sometimes just hold our hands you know what we’re just like you guys some stuff we buy we don’t get on with and it’s one of them that doesn’t mean say this is a bad club and I’m not for one second saying that Bell Putters are bad I think gaza’s really bad at buying stuff it certainly I bought a bad spec putter for myself yeah I agree I can’t gauge how like how how fiery or dead it’s going to come off that’s the only thing I don’t know if that is to do with a length or if it’s to do with anything else but do you play for I don’t know why I’ve just come across it it were at long roof not doing that well in the League this year no I weren’t either one up so to fill this video up with a little bit of extra value we’ll start giving you a couple of quick tips as well on buying from the internet buying from eBay buying from Facebook buying from gum tree because we have an expert with us you do though don’t you you spend a lot of money on those things and some of it’s wasted but some of it you get some like unbelievable deals as well so we’re just going to try and help you with that sorry this could go down as the worst in history I think it probably will but they’re not all bad mate are they no this was this was I’ve just got this bad habit of waking up I mean you know along with this purchase I bought 40 pound of a cereal um cuz it were on offer oh jeez so I don’t know if that right person to begin advice really what cereal was it frost is it’s called surreal it’s a sugar-free cereal um is this a brand deal and it’s got a lot of protein in it and it worked out a 4 pound a box if you bought 10 boxes are you selling them no I’m not selling them it’s not to do with golf but great shot Mr bunker yeah you’re all right right I’m going all out attack now I’m taking a very big tiger lining if I can break offs and not have to pay for lunch it’ll be a result big wasle when you look at what I’m having oh that’s all right down that right side probably near mine actually a bit of a higher ball flight but yeah nicely in play it’ll do the precious on you know you got to use this putter so guys do us a favor again in the comments below what is the worst golf product you’ve ever bought and was it the specs was it the price or was it the time of day that you bought it that there was the issue the really funny thing is as well we spend so much time harping on about fitting yeah and making sure you get the right clubs for you and when we talk about um what to buy it’s difficult because if you’re wanting a deal which you obviously are if you’re buying clubs off eBay Facebook G wherever you you can’t get fitted for them it’s pretty much impossible you can maybe retr fit them yeah like with this puty you can’t there’s no changeable weights in it but you could always change the shaft changing the shaft means you could maybe change the L angle you know what I would say with putting and Putters it’s the probably the one club that I feel as though you can get away with not having a fit in I mean I’ve gone to the extreme got completely wrong spake yeah but I I’m using a put in my bag that I bought just purely cuz I like the look of the alignment on it that’s going isn’t it potentially but no but what I’m saying is I’ve had fitted puts before James and I don’t know no I mean I wasn’t fitted for my putter if you know the story behind my swag putter um I got lent one basically while we were in America at Big seeda Lodge played pay’s Valley shot the round of my life hold everything uh and basically stole that putter the guys knew it went but basically just took it that can prove us wrong by fitting as a Putter and we we see extremely better results and so be it but I haven’t found one yet right 150ish mate that flag 150 that new bunker in play as well we know that’s a very horrible flag location as well 150 on the nose 151 it were that’s the right guess that 9 downwind yeah not fat though it’s got to go W go you’ve tried too hard with that one it’s over the hazard you know this wind today though and conditions it’s tough if I had bit 99 there I could have seen it flying straight through b not wrong it’s tough it’s tough and we’re getting used to lots of different things as well aren’t we can you said I’ll bleep it out just in case I’m not entirely sure but like the putter is new he’s got a new hat on the glasses are new we’ve roached the glasses Haven we I’m going to be going at practice area I’ll tell you that after this yeah I think I’m in the bunker aren’t I had a horrible feeling yeah snu in could survive snu in uh is it hard [Music] wedge who’s put that rake back there well let’s not get into that debate where should the rake be in Bunker cuz I think it should be middle either in the middle or would you put it not in the bunker should it be in the bunker I think cuz if you hit the rake then your ball goes in the bunker cuz it were outside bunker that’s unfair so I don’t think you should be punished if a Ball’s outside perimeters are a bunker no with a r it has to be in it somewhere right not short bit similar that’s short it’s ever yeah tough one it’s an up and down chipping comp then are you putting it could do actually that might be a good option for me at a minute feel like I hate look massive Stone there so these still look amazing don’t they people keep asking me about these toos I’ve not done really anything with them yet borrow them if you want I mean at the the price they’re good value aren’t they yeah and I’ve just got these through as well Tores doing a video comparing them very similar price one Brian BR is using them in it and yeah Wesley they’re both using them actually they both contracted to them I’m not contracted to them I CH them because I like them I think that kind of um shows you that the product is good otherwise they won using yeah it’s a funny one like we we spoke to the guys it’s coma about maybe trying to do a video where um a friend of ours who’s played on tour would use them and see Bo he could score so potentially that might come in the long run but I think if you have a good quality forged head of a golf club and then premium shafts and premium grips what more can you do yeah uh should we go up the up The Path oh we’ve lost the Box we’ve lost the Box better get it better get it it’s got your name all over it I’ll let you walk mate oh God guys this is the worst thing I’ve ever seen and he does this he does this he spends money and he was so excited about it he’s like a little bit Gloom now about it but he was so excited when he first got it and I was like guys why have you spent more money you don’t need to be spending all this money on golf stuff but he does and sometimes he finds a bit of a hidden J and sometimes it’s like an absolute shocker I do really like his wedges though I really I might have to steal the I think a bit you got a wedge I’ve got a 58 that’ll do I’ve never been this short on this hole I don’t think horrible flag position that’s delightful it’s about as good as you’re going to do yeah at least I’ve got a put great shot great shot that bunk is going to look incredible by the way isn’t it yeah when it’s uh fully settled it’s I mean it does look great already but just bedding in is it shot these pxu wedges are class you can stop them on a two pence yeah I might steal this off you come there the Box nice box though sending in a black box was a nice touch ice breaking you’re going to try and send it back I was thinking about it you know just to return he’d be very rude that he’s PID for postage and everything what did you do though you you you offered him something didn’t you and it just turned up yeah so it was it were £80 but I don’t know if it’ been on there that long sometimes it drops on to make an offer yeah so I offered him 50 weren’t really expecting him to accept it but it might have counted but anyway turned up at work after about three or four days not being there and it would just it would just L there for me I’m like what’s in here I couldn’t believe it when I opened it like all the hell it must be like an automatic payment cuz i’ made an offer maybe he just sent it for three by the way they’re two fantastic shots right I’m going to take this serious cuz this is for for for and when when James wins he us has a bit more appetite I mean I haven’t had breakfast yet oh I’ve never seen you as tame with a putter what’s wrong with me take it out please he’s got it God sake right put to this you got no excuses now no I ain’t got any excuses we even went back to the car for glasses like crap uh well I don’t know whether to go like warm sandwich and cold crisp or cold sandwich and chips no I meant I would play another rle or no oh might as well we one more come on let’s get [Music] lunch I’m thinking look at the special board actually Italian club sandwich what else have we got here supposed a is it what’s the most expens oh burgers salad salad a salad what about some fries at least Caucasian

Talking about golf purchases what about budget launch monitors are they good enough James ?
Woke up in spec savers 😂😂
Played a course once where the bunker rakes were upright in a short pipe buried in the ground
🤦♀️
I bought a set of Wilson irons off eBay one time, not saying they were bad clubs but something was definitely wrong with them 😂 I'm thinking horrible swing weighted
But I was able to trade them in to the local second hand shop for near full price…and they sat on their shelf for like 2 years 😂
LABB
I got my set from a 2nd hand shop open oversized and left handed too
I never bought a new golf club. But a lot second hand. Its so fun, and easy to get the money back if I sell them. Best buy, original zebra putter, worst buy a wedge that has a very big sole. Otherwise it's been good clubs, and irons are easy to adjust lie and more.
More videos with Gaz please.
Bell???
S.H.I.T brand lol
Love how you guys make golf life fun.
Rake should be on the back side of the bunker
Rake should be in the bunker
I purchase used clubs off ebay and what I like is that if I'm looking at a 5 year old driver, I can look back through James Robinson's YouTube catalog and watch a video of when he reviewed it brand new. Thanks James! 😊
You can tell you and Gary go along way back by the banter. Golf is so much fun with dear friends. You and Gary and again with Chris have the most fun playing and challenging each other on the course. Keep it up
The ribbing with Gaz never gets old.😂👍
I bought a Taylormade driver off a reputable secondhand website and it had a left handed shaft in a right handed head … well the tip was a left handed one (yes there are left and right handed tips ) perhaps I should have sent it back once I found out the problem but I changed out the tip myself and voila it became the driver I wanted … but for a week or so it was a nightmare 🤬
well my Ex wife stole my full set of clubs, last night i just purchased a Wilson set profile sgi, didn't want to but it was all i could afford and the Putter looks like El Crapola! lol
Tell Gaz “thanks for the purchase and can he leave me poss feedback please” 🤣
I put kettle on now 🫣
Have you ever reviewed carbite putters. I bought one from infomercial while still playing competitive golf. Over 20 years later still in my bag. I wish you would try them.
Which SWAG putter do you use ? You should put some of their covers on the bag!
Why are all the PGA pros now growing beards? It has aged them
That length would be good for me. Worst purchase was the Hammer!
Bloody bell ends 😂
Rakes in bunker lads
Does Gary ever use the word ‘the’ int bunker use rake 😂. Nice shots James
Be honest James you go I don't have much cash today. Then you Gaz do you want a match for lunch 😂
Another great video, love it when you have Gary with you. Both my favorite channels but the best is when you are together. It's obvious y'all go way back and are great friends and there's nothing better than golf with friends. God bless and cheers my friends
Thank God mine wasn't expensive, but my worst purchase was an Orlimar 9 wood. Worst feeling golf club I've ever used. Thought I would try one more since they were cheap and bought a Warrior 9 wood. I think it was $30 brand new. Good little club. Much better than the Orlimar which is sad to say for a once proud brand.
I keep seeing marketing for a putter brand and I am intrigued. They are called Void putters and they look like a serious putter to try. Could you investigate and consider it to be on your channel?
Good luck to Gaz with the glasses. When I first started wearing my glasses to golf, I found I couldn't read a green on my life. My glasses correct for an astigmatism, so the difference between wearing them and not was HUGE. I live in the US and have never heard of this company… maybe because they appear to make children's clubs.
95 percent my bag from ebay 😂
Great video once again. I have mad a lot of purchases off eBay and really been pleased. I do some of my own club work so re-shafting clubs is not a problem. Found some great deals along the way. I do appreciate these review videos so keep them up. While I was watching It occurred to me, Do they have right-side steering golf carts in the UK to mimic the automobiles?
I have bought all manner of putters, and most of them I could not stand. Worst? A big tall putter, two portions of grip on it, where you are standing up. I could not buy a put with that thing. Best putter EVER for me, not anyone else, I'm not saying that, but for ME, was a Ping Anser orange dot putter. I got it from Ebay and I had one years ago and sold it, don't know why, and bought a used one recently. Wow! The lie angle is perfect for my height. Same with my Ping Zing 2 irons, just right.
Worst purchase is easy for me, set of taylormade irons around 2014 MC with the speed pocket.. after a year or arguing with TM managed to get money back and buy some mizuno.. put me of TM irons to this day…
Racks should be to the side pointing towards the green, imho. Font, back and middle are the most common hit areas for me.
It’s a bell end putter
