By far and away your best bet is to go to Palmer and check out a set from them . You get almost brand new top of the line clubs with no obligations. They are not just for potential buyers. They hope that you will want to buy from Palmer but no obligations.
thanks for the reply. When we were renting last Feb, clubs were readily available from Palmer. I borrowed several different sets and ditto for our guests. The wonderfully gracious attitude of the staff a Palmer was one of the reasons we decided to buy a home here. I also borrowed a set in Sep'08 just before the sale of demo sets. However, when I inquired about borrowing sets from Palmer recently (Dec'08), the attitude of the staff was quite different. They made it quite clear that these sets were for people contemplating purchase and asked quite a few questions about what I was thinking about buying and when. I recognize that there are no obligations, but the attitude was quite different.

Anyone else notice any changes in the last few months?
