Just a quick questions for anyone in LOS at the moment.

 

I am after a set of Nike Slingshot Irons and wondered if they are available in LOS and if so how much they are advertised for ?

 

I need to know whether its worth waiting until my Xmas trip or not.

 

Any help and info much appreciated.

stoace,

 

My experience in trying to purchase discounted golf clubs in Pattaya, Thailand at the various shopping malls (Mike Mall, The Big C, etc.) I found the prices to be higher than at local discount outlets in the USA. I would suggest searching the WWW for the best deals with shipping and no taxes.

 

DHK Discount Golf

 

The above link is one example of what is out there. I bought a set in the USA and left them in Pattaya, Thialand so I didn't have to haul them back and forth. At the above site Nike Slingshots in Graphite Shafts are $639 USD and the Steel Shafts are $549 USD. I don't know how that compares to prices where you live but I can bet that is higher in Pattaya, Thailand.

 

Good luck on finding the best price.

 

Just 40 days 14 hours 21 minutes 50 seconds then wheels-up and off to LOS Thailand. . .but who's counting?

I have to agree with ff29 all the big name manufacturers clubs I've seen in Thailand are more expensive than at home. There are very good copies about which are cheaper , but I wouldn't like to guess the quality.

 

Personally I've bought a secondhand set at home and left tham in Pattaya.

Hi wobbly_1,

 

I have a set a Callaway X16 Pros w/True Temper Sensicore Shafts and I've played the knockoffs. When you first play new knockoffs they seem pretty good but after a number of rounds they seem to go flat or dead.

 

Also, most major manufactures of quality clubs give a good warranty (Callaway's warranty is LIFE TIME REPLACEMENT) which is hard to beat if you need to use it. But, IMHO, if you're set on a name brand set of clubs i.e. Callaway, Nike, etc., then I'd shop for name brands on the Internet and even consider a quality used set to be even better than a cheap knockoff set.
