I buy my clubs on e-bay. If you look for sets that are 2 or 3 years old, select the shaft flex and type you need, you can buy them for about 25% of new cost. My last set for example was King Cobra FP 3-GW, RH, graphite regular flex shafts, and I paid $225 for the set. This was 2 years ago.

I have been watching the newer S3 irons and they are still running a little over $300 for a set. When they drop down to around $250, I will replace these. I do the same thing for woods and only buy when I can get newer technology for about 30% of new cost.

First step is to decide what clubs you want. Then decide what you will pay, then start searching and watching for the best condition and price.

I used to make all my clubs and still do some things like change shafts and grips, adjust swing weights, but it is actually cheaper to buy this way then to build.
