Golf equipment, especially at the premium end, seems to require a massive investment these days. It’s no coincidence that golf gear manufacturers place much of their promotional attention on their leading edge products, those that command both consumer eyeballs and higher retail prices.
But, there are options within brands that many people are not fully aware of. In looking to fill the gap that exists for lower price points a number of companies are making use of prior generation designs to offer “one-stop” shopping options.
Take the Callaway Golf XR 13-piece set for example. You won’t see many media outlets paying attention to this offering and you may not find it on the front page of the company’s website, but it is an item that will meet the needs for many golfers. Whether you are new to the game, trying to manage a budget, or simply a casual player, this set as all the gear you need to play the game.
The configuration includes a 460cc driver, fairway wood, hybrids, easy-to-hit irons, wedges, and an Odyssey DFX Putter (#7 shape). They are packaged in a Callaway stand bag with headcovers for all the metals.
The sets are available in multiple colour-ways (two more recently added), a longer length option for players who require it, and an all-graphite shaft option.
All this for the price of a premium set of irons. It’s worth a look if this sounds like it will meet your needs.
